However anybody with an elise will get the guys frustration at the end.
Clever bit of advertising though.

If that was a 911 Turbo cab PDK, it'd have won.

Errrrm, was that not Unglish? "It'd" is a contraction of "it would". So, it reads; "it would have won". Innit?

Have to agree with bam - it'd is a valid contraction of 'it would' and 'it had'

Pfft, smartarses :D. I can comprehend "it'd be a slam dunk" for example but in my 35 years farting about on planet I have not once heard someone physically say "it'd have" without something along the lines of "to" or "at" after it for example.

Just me being awkward and trying to explain my train of thought on what prompted my reply, not arguing who is right etc as I know better than to argue with an Aussie that has unusually been gifted with quite the brain :D. If we all got lobotomised and spoke nothing but chav on here things would be far easier. To me it just read all wrong and warranted the need of a Jheri curl touting, Soul Glo saturated Samuel L. ;)

Anyway, that Mazda was gay and that is what matters above me being wrong so shush.

If it was a better horse, it'd have won.
If it was a different horse, it'd have won.
If it was a better porker, it'd have won.
If it was a 911 turbo PDK cab, it'd have won.

Whichever way you look at it, it's a sh1t sentence, not my best work, that said, I was commenting on an MX-5 so I could've been channelling my inner blonde. Usually when I'm channelling my inner blonde, I'm doing stuff to her, bad stuff, real bad stuff. This might be why that sentence was a bit sh1t. Just sayin'.

Now, where's Arthur, I wanna get him wound up again.

Sorry for being particularly awkward, this fecking hole inside my nostrils that has developed has me breathing like someone rammed a kazoo up there,then punched me in the snozz for good measure. Lovely 24/7 headache too and I have to try to explain to people that it is due to 6 months of daily nosebleeds, not from partying with Daniella Westbrook. I sound funny as hell though so that is something at least :D.

Most odd being able to put put cotton buds up one nostril and clean through in to the other.... Anyway, that was 15 seconds of your life that you won't get back.

'Tis ok, I bought a time-machine this coming Friday morning and I had nothing better to do while my dinosaur egg omelette is cooking.
