Ferrari

The Ferrari F1 team fired their entire pit crew yesterday.

This announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the
British government's 'Work for your Dole' scheme and employ some
Liverpudlian youngsters.

The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent documentary on
how unemployed youths from Toxteth were able to remove a set of wheels
in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, whereas Ferrari's existing crew could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of pounds worth of high tech equipment.

It was thought to be an excellent, bold move by the Ferrari management team as most races are won and lost in the pits, giving Ferrari an advantage over every other team.

However, Ferrari got more than they bargained for! At the crew's first practice session, not only was the scouse pit crew able to change all four wheels in under 6 seconds but, within 12 seconds, they had re-sprayed, re-badged and sold the car to the Mclaren team for 8 cases of Stella, a bag of weed and some photos of Coulthard's bird in the shower...........!!

you will shortly receive a post by Sniper with the word 'Repost'.

this is funny though. I previously heard it using Glaswegian youths (Car crim capital of Europe). In Italy there is a version referring to Napoli (Naples) youths too.

Here's a question though.

What's the difference between a hooker and a Ferrari?
Most Bikers have never been in a Ferrari.

no.. by me.. that is an old south african joke about taxi drivers..

Footnote: In south africa, the 'black taxis' used toyota hi-aces, and if you wanted to buy a minivan, you NEVER bought one, as it would disappear, and would never be seen again

Got to love the Scousers.

I was once orederd to give over my case of beers by a 14 year old scouser with a knife, he was kind enough to give me one back though.
Bloody decent of him if you ask me.

Never had a problem with Scousers myself - possibly due to the fact I'm Glaswegian with a bad temper and am over 6 feet tall - got mugged by 3 guys in Glasgow once...still don't know (or care) if anyone found what I left of them.

I've never started a fight....finished a few though.

Ooh, I have - got concussion out of it too! LOL

First and only time I was ever barred from a pub in the centre of Manchester....was an angry wee thing back in them days

Scousers are a great bunch of people - shame that the bad actions of a few have wrecked it for the rest of them. Now those Mancs........

But this is far too Pommie for a Kiwi site so I'll stop right there!

**tomthepohm** · 23rd August 2006, 13:41

Dont even get me started on the Mancs.....

Nah - I WAS so hard.... that was 15 years ago - I'm an auld bastard now. Yep that's an L plate right enough. I wasn't born riding a motorbike like you - some of us have to go through the learners stage.

I still get mildly amused by people making the assumption that coz you're a learner in one aspect of your life that you are a learner in all aspects of your life.

I just get a bit angry about theft and crime against individuals in general..... my writing merely reflects that.
