What's a big end?

[Bbbananas]

Cos I have some knocking in mine, apparently. It all sounds a bit suss - is it serious?

[wolf63]

It means that you are going to get married.

The big end went on my brother's motorbike when he was on his way from Scotland to Germany. He was near Nottingham so went to stay with friends and cancelled his trip. Whilst in Nottingham he met a lovely lady and married her a couple of years later. That was 13 years and three kids ago.

Enjoy married life.

hi.its a garage job and there is a little end as well no joke

[rowanwitch]

You and the car in one week...oh dear... one of the boys will know and blind you with automotive science... brace yourself for a wave of male superiority

[Bbbananas]

Wolf - Nooooooooooooooooooooo. It's too early to scare me like that. It's more scary than yet another cat avatar. (Anyway, been there, done that - didn't like it, on the whole).

Delph :-( I'm skint!!!!!
rowan - that's why I didn't post it in motoring - I'm "only a girl" and therefore do not understand such things as cars......

[rowanwitch]

I think its the bit of the exhaust that joins the engine.... or the bit where the engine joins the exhaust...I'm ok with under the bonnet but under the car itself could be another planet!!

Salla are we still talking about you're recent attack of the 'two bob bits' here? lol

[Bbbananas]

Oh well, will have to dip into yet more of my lottery jackpot stash... not.

[rowanwitch]

apparently its part of the main connecting rod to the engine...bigjob may involve stripping down the engine apparently......

[Bbbananas]

Miss N - no!!!! At least that indelicate little problem has dried up. If only a car's big end could be cured with Immodium.

[missnemesis]

:-0 Immodium? You gotta be careful with that stuff salla, you could be bunged up for weeks then you'll have to swap your alcohol for senakot hehehehe

[Bbbananas]

I know - I've made that mistake before. But sometimes you only think of your problem on that particular day & don't look forward. Oh well, easy come, easy go....

[rowanwitch]

or not as the case may be...

[joggerjayne]

It's a large penis.

(I can't believe you've had to wait 13 posts for someone to say this)

[jake-the-peg]

The big end is the bottom of the rod that pushes the piston up and down in the engine

Yes it is serious it's right in the heart of the engine

[rowanwitch]

I think we were expecting someone else to say it.... actually just a big kn*b at the end... ok smut is back.....

[Bbbananas]

Thank you Jake.

You others - so rude.

It's what men promise to deliver and always think they succeed at delivering

[rowanwitch]

Sort of like a grande finale only common.....

[bibblebub]

is it that small boy you sat on trying to get out?

"what's a big end?"
