Yeah, welcome to the site Jos, I hope you're enjoying your ST.

The n00b thing will disappear once you've made more than (I think) 20 posts.

Are you sure it's not more than that Scotty? I've made 30 odd post now and am still a n00b. Mind you I maybe shouldn't question the knowledge of the Gods!

Thanks guys, really great to be welcomed like this, car is great! a buddy got his Polo 1.9 TDi today...its going back tomorrow (rattles in dash, and door panel, & car is pulling heavily to the left). The only hassle I've had is a intermittent (and very faint squeak) above my head in the ceiling, which occurs over rough surfaces. I got some of that expanding foam in a can, pushed the nozzle in, gave it a squirt and all sorted!!! cheers

Hi Peter

What the hell is a 'yarpy'? my imagination is conjuring up all sorts of freaky images, some better than others, so put me outta my misery and enlighten me. Cheers

Dear Jos
Surprised you don,t know ,but it mainly applies to South Africans of British descent who have attempted to maintain what they think is a high class British accent,yarpies -yes please.It,s also used to counterattack Pom.Hope that makes things a bit clearer.I first heard it used by a friend from Bulawayo who was describing a young lady from the Cape.It wasn,t used nicely.

Hi Peter

It means an uncordinated mixture of whatever, I just happen to know what the whatever is...Dad has German & a bit of Dutch in him & my mom had French, Italian and English in her, not sure on the ratio's though. cheers
