can you break the hand brake by putting it on too tight?
Ginger, 6 October, 2008 at 17:24

Is that a silly question? I couldn't get my handbrake off this morning after a man had put it on. He says i don't put it on properly, i say he is going to yank it off with his obsession with it? well?...

Stereophonics - what song is this?
Gingey Wife, 6 October, 2008 at 11:53
