Those are Mitsubishi's, I believe the new crop have killed a couple people.

I think the first one I ever did was a Mitsubishi. Not done any for years now though.

It has been years for me too.

It was fun and I don't regret anything but what a waste of time it was.

I dunno, I know what you're getting at but I don't think that chasing a good time is ever a waste of time and whatever you were doing at any given time was what you wanted to be doing-unless you were getting bum-raped in the navy or whatever.

Come back to me in 20 years and see if you still feel the same.

I probably needed to do it but if I went back with my 44 year old brain I'd probably not do it.

I'm 34 but yeah I know what you mean-I wouldn't want to do it now, but at the time I didn't want to do anything else-you're probably the same.

Sorry I wasn't being patronising.

I was making the point that in the last 20 years I've changed my mind- I wasn't projecting my own experience onto you.

I didn't take it as patronising mate.

Thing is what I say stands-you've changed in the last 20 years, but if you went back in time, you'd do it all again.

If you went back in time but kept your older head, then you'd do things differently and we'd all paid more attention in school...

I feel like I've just taken a Gary staring at all those quotes of quotes.

What is the Gary to Dave exchange rate?

I'm thinking 2.3 to 1.

I'll have a look into it - would you like quotes taking Brexit into account as well?

It's a valid concern, and one which I would like to prepare for. Plan for the worst etc.

You're gonna stock up on them, like Emp and his euros?

The Gary's of the world seemed to start to die out one the Capri went into decline. I think that they are an endangered species now.

That's not entirely fair - I once worked with a Gary who drove an Escort XR3i cabriolet.  White, natch.

Ah the long lost but never forgotten mishybishy, oh for a time machine.

Yup, I'm a Gary.

Apparently 9th most popular boys name in 1954 when Gary Cooper was at the height of his success.

Gary Cooper was actually born Frank Cooper and chose Gary as his working name after his hometown of Gary, Indiana.

Unfortunately (or possibly fortunately - I've never met the man) I live about 200 miles from @Holnrew so probably best if he finds a Gary closer to home.

Blimey... I thought Garys were an endangered species... haven't seen one 'round here for yonks. (and haven't said yonks - for even more yonks).

More power to your Garyishness.

EricTheWeary

I've now looked up the popularity of my actual name in the year I was born, a mere 20th but with an alternate spelling also further down the list so it was pretty common. At number 17 though was Kevin so I dodged a bullet there! Gary at 16 that year.

FX_Munkee

I did have a Gary but we changed his name to Jim because we already had a Gary and decided that 2 would be confusing (true story).
That was 20 years ago and he's still called Jim.
There may be a salient point in the above, if anybody could find it, I'd appreciate it.
