So a while back I was able to pick up set of fairly new OEM Volvo pads from the junkyard to replace the POS aftermarket crap that the previous owner got for it. Three things I've noticed... braking was drastically improved, no more squeaking and...... omgosh so much brake dust. :lol:

Thank goodness Volans are dark wheels to begin with eh? :lol:

wow those houses are beautiful

p.s. had smithwicks the other day for the first time! didnt know it was pronounced "sminnicks" lol

Most houses in our neighborhood are probably 1910's-1940's...pre-WW2 houses.

Did you like it?? I tend drink it in large amounts during the colder months of the year. And yeah the like everyone has said, 'Smiddicks' or 'Smitticks' are the ones I've run across.

hate to say it but dave is correct....a local pub don't serve you one if you pronounce it wrong...granted i've never heard someone order it there wrong :blink:

Nice to see that a lot of people are educated on the unofficial pronunciation of the beer. Most my friends needed to be taught how to say it correctly.

And i seem to remember Dongle telling a story how a bartender told a guy to get the hell out after he pronounced it Smith-wicks. :lol:
