  1. Everything, according to the website. "Athlete Tested. Designed to enhance your adventures. Morning rides, sunset runs & waist deep powder days. Timeless Design. Built To Last. Athlete Tested. Community Approved. Guaranteed For Life. 3 Layer Scratch Defence"
  2. Bit of a chance, I know, but has anyone on her ever had sunglass from 'Sungod'? Looking to get some new sunnies after the coating on my Oakleys is wearing off (lasted 8 years, can't complain). See 'SunGod' pop up every so often, and the reviews seems positive. Anyone had any experience with them? https://www.sungod.co/
  3. I'd never been before, but would happily go again! Walking past the YHA Ravenstor house was a big eerie though! Also amazed at what you find atop a mountain
  4. Had a couple of days in the Peak District (near Cressbrook) so went for a few walks.
  5. Not sure if they are still available on iPlayer anymore, but worth a watch if you can find them: Happy Valley Prisoners' Wives Still available on iPlayer: Young Offenders Our Country Still available on 4oD: Black Books Green Wing Peep Show Kitchen Nightmares (UK version) Netflix Sex Death Robots (series of short independent episodes) Money Heist (can watch dubbed or with subtitles) Space Force Don't **** with Cats Tiger King Conversations With a killer: Ted Bundy
  6. I don't miss having a black metallic car, but I'm somewhat jealous of how well they shine up (especially compared to my white gloss).
  7. Both cars washed this weekend in the evenings when they aren't bathed in sunlight. Both had the same treatment: 2 Bucket Method Autoglym Bodywork Shampoo Rinse Dry with micofibre cloth DemonShine 'Spray on Shine' n buff Simoniz Ultrcare Alloy Cleaner On wheels Rinse DemonShine 'Wet look' tyre dressing
  8. That's an impressive challenge to just stop entirely! Though sorry you had such a horrible time to create it. Mine is mostly work related but I'm just winding it down from 500ml Energy drinks to cans of Pepsi, then down to nothing. Already on the headache and withdrawal stage, but it's better than not sleeping etc.
  9. I'm reducing the amount of caffeine I consume, which got to a relatively unhealthy daily level. Everything is currently an annoyance, including myself
  10. Cycled up to the top of Lyme and Wood pits last night to see the sunset. Shame it clouded over though The descent was the best part!
  11. Well, the "Yugo" was a real car. Not sure they did a "Boss" version though.
  12. Oh no, didn't mean it like that! Meant as in what one person likes, another may not as it is quite personal. It also (accidentally mind you) matches my car 🤣
  13. Appreciate it isn't to everyone's tastes but oh well
  14. There's a Semi-active group on FB called "North West Skoda's UK", unsure if that has anyone on from here.
  15. (From Motorsport UK) "Motorsport UK is pleased to confirm the easing of restrictions on the number of participants in motorsport events taking place in Wales. The news follows the announcement last night by First Minister Mark Drakeford that Wales is moving into alert level one. Events are now able to take place if run in accordance with the latest Motorsport UK Restart Guidance. All organisers planning events and activities must undertake a full risk assessment and put in place measures to prevent the spread of coronavirus, including social distancing." https://www.motorsportuk.org/news/more-good-news-for-motorsport-in-wales/ They also announced on Facebook that spectator limits will be set at 4,000 per event.
  16. Gave the interior a good clean this week: Hoovered throughout - Boot included Cleaned the interior plastic/trim with Autoglym Vinyl & Rubber cleaner Cleaned the leather steeringwheel, handbrake etc with Autogrlym Leather Cleaner Applied Autoglym Leather Care Balm to the above (makes the car smell fantastic) Cleaned the front 2 seats with Autoglym Interior Cleaner - Water wasn't too bad, but still went a sandy opaque colour, yuck! Cleaned the interior windows with Autoglym Fast glass and 'Minky' window cloth Replaced Cabin Pollen Filter Cleaned the AC using one of those spray cans (where you set it off and run the AC for 10 minutes). Stopped the slightly musty smell when you first turn it on after the car sits for a while. I have noticed whenever I use Fast Glass on the windscreen I end up with a greasy looking haze on the inside, no matter how much I buff it. Any suggestions? Cleaned the cloth and tried other cloths, but always end up with this haze.
  17. Been keeping an eye on a particular watch (RRP £300) but it's never dipped low enough in the sales to justify purchasing it (£200). Out of curiosity, took a quick look on Cash Convertors, and found the exact one. Complete with box, photos showed it in great condition, for £80 so purchased it. Watch arrived couple days later, in like-new condition and still with it's original tags on. Chuffed to bits with it! (suspect it was a Christmas present that wasn't wanted)
  18. My first car was a S reg Ford KA, that registration is no longer on the DVLA website (it was coming to end of it's life when we sold it, so I can't imagine it ran for much longer). 2nd car was a 05 plate Clio we sold a friend who's son was leaning to drive at the time - Still registered on DVLA and MOT'd 3rd car was a 11 pate Skoda Fabia - Write off through accident 4th Car was a 10 plate Seat Ibiza - Still registered on DVLA and MOT'd
  19. In the office - Sun shines and it looks glorious out Lunch break - Cloudy In the office - Sun back out and clear skies Time to head home - Cloudy Home - Cloudy and/or rain. Can't win
  20. I've had a Maxton splitter (bought from their ebay store as it was significantly cheaper than their own online store). Their customer service prior to the purchase was great. They answered all questions in detail and even provided details on fitting. Delivery was well within their time frame (although that's down to the courier). The splitter itself looks great/as described. I got it fitted at a local garage for peace of mind (but you can do it yourself). Not had any issues with it, and it's taken a few knocks but has remained damage free and still secure.
  21. Got a text through saying I can took my 1st Covid Jab, which is now booked for 19th May.
  22. Might not be to everyone's taste, but I recently watched "Dredd" on Netflix and thoroughly enjoyed the grittiness/dark nature of it.
  23. Thanks for the advice! That's where we're going to put the lockable latch, once we get one.
  24. Trying my hand at waterfall photography with long exposure. Didn't have a tripod, so had to lean against a tree. Fairly pleased with it, but will use a tripod next time for a "smoother" look in the water.
  25. Built myself a gate for the alley between the house an next door (too narrow for standard gate sizes). Thought it was odd the previous owners never had one, they lived here for 15 years and had 3 kids but oh well. Never built one before so was a learning experience, but still enjoyable though! Scewfix and B&Q have made a few quid off me, that's for sure! Pleased with the finished results, and i'm happy now the back garden is secure. Just need to get a latch for it.
