i suffer from that too. put some nice clothes on and end up having to fix somthing. i dont have any nice clothes anymore.

least it gives me memories. i can pull out a shirt and think "ah yes, fixed the starter with a rock and a metal pole that night" haha

the missus always tells me off for working in good clothes...
LOL

You know you drive an escort when..
- You drive through macca's and get the ****s because they didn't give you a cup tray, espescially if you have two drinks.

- You have to fill her up with petrol doggy style.[:x)]

you know u drive an escort when

(in my case)

you have to yell when going through the drivethrough because you cant hear the person through the speaker, and they ask you 3 times in a row, "what drink with that meal?" and each time you say "fanta", to which they reply, "sorry was that a water??"

you have to attempt to close the bootlid 3 or 4 times before it actually closes,

even when your not looking at the bootlid your still prepared for it to fly back up atleast once!

--------------------------------------------------------

when you get out of the car, you know 99% of the time the drivers door didn't close fully, so you push it in with your bum, without even checking!

... you asking answer questions with "yes it is a real one"
You constantly get asked if it's a real one

You constantly get asked if it's for sale. To which you reply "no"

You Know you drive an Escort when
You've just got her back on the road after a while & you are concentrating on how that new engine is running, the weather is a bit dodgy so you need to use those freshly plumbed washers, so you try, try,...try,try,try...try,try..try..try,try,try,try......try & the car in front of you pulls over[x2x][:0][:u][:x)]

You carry a screw driver to re-attach the window winder for when it falls off.
