    How far has this project come by now? Apart from re-erecting a once squashed cab and working on a rusty tender there does'nt seem to be any other infromation on the website.

    Perhaps it's now time to consider a different name -'Manchester City' comes to mind!

    Would need lot of foreign parts and an Italian driver to be like its namesake - maybe an oil burner in honour of the owner!

    There are some horrible people about.

    I heard a cat crying outside so I opened the door and saw four blokes in Man Utd shirts playing football with it.

    I was just about to phone the RSPCA when the cat went 1-0 up.
