I have read that if you breathe on or blow air at the bee or wasp it will most likely sting you. Saw an experiment on a nest where the fella in the protective suit blew his breath over a nest and shook it. They went mad as you can imagine. Next he breathed through a pipe so his breath was not near the nest and what do you know, he shook the nest and there was very little movement. Apparently it is the carbon monoxide or something in your breath that sets them off so just relax and push them away not bat them with your hands.

I prefer the average jesus creeper myself, especially in this heat. These are my current pair. Woops, I didnt mean pair literally, ah well just bathe in their glory.

If I went over some of these at 20 the front would be wrecked. Part of the problem is the road gets worn down just after the bump and lowers the drop off on the other side. Well I will just have to go slower then and really P1ss off the peeps following. Hmm, I will have to wear a cloth cap too or maybe a trilby when driving lol. I cant wait to get old, I am gonna be terrible.

Sooo, the road humps near me seem to be getting bigger and more frequent. My fabia elegance estate just scrapes the front bumper unless I go down to 2nd and go over at about 10mph. So the question is how do i increase the ride height by a bit front and back and is it expensive to do so and is it safe?

I smoke only in my own time. The company should not pay for my habit.

If you can afford it go for a lappy with a ssd drive instead of mechanical hdd. The difference is night and day performance wise. If you do not need all the storage then a 128gb ssd will be fine. I stuck my old ssd in me daughters sony vaio and everything is so much snappier. It boots in a fraction of the time and everything is faster. I will not have a computer without an ssd now as a boot drive. Reliability wise the ssd is an old crucial m4 never missed a beat. -
My dpf does this about every month thereabouts. I give it 10 mins at 50 in forth and it goes away. Fabia Elegance 1.6tdi.

Did you forget to disengage the cloaking shield before driving off? -
Increased Terror threat on Airlines. The Governments have to act.
nellyboy replied to Rooted's topic in The Roadside Hotel
We did not stop the raping of other countries for profit, we took part in it. After freeing the people of an oppressive and despotic terror regime we gave the people new schools and hospitals and gave them a democratic government to rule over them. Why are they not thanking us with open arms and flowers? -
Censorship of "distressing" items in the media.
nellyboy replied to vindaloo's topic in The Roadside Hotel
If you saw the blows you might want to beat the crud out of an authority figure when you had an altercation with a pig headed pig. Eye for an eye is fair, if they can do it so can we. That is why I look for these events on liveleak to see the real footage. I want my family to be hardened to viewing such things so when they happen they can still think and react instead of staring in horror like a rabbit in the headlights. Censorship of violence is my choice I think.
