I had my left hand done just before christmas and the right one beginning of April. Follow the docs advice re creams or bio oil rubbed into the scar, pressing harder after a week or two, after the stitches come out. Keep up with mobility with a "squeeze ball" but don't use 'force' to quick. Relief from "pins and needles" was immediate and i can now sleep well. mine took 7 mins for first and 8 mins for other. No real bother with them at all. was most impressed with the staff at the hospital.

Great Pics. As a little un i was driven past this place twice a year on our way to grandparents house. Was always promised we would call in next time, but it never happened. Lots of detail shown but never seen when on the road.I must make the time soon to go and visit. Thanks for reminding me of it.

Good photos there. Very atmospheric. Black and white always seems to suit this subject.

Lovely Photos, where were this lot taken, i'm off up to Scotland next week. First two very impressive.

It's not as pretty as it was in the late 60's early 70's, in those days there were just two small caravan sites there, not less than 3 miles(or so it seemed) from the beach down a very steep hill. Very few people about in those days. Must admit though it was very very nice there, so deserted and that long, long walk from one end of the beach to the other and back again before going to bed when you are very young, tired you out completely. Gorgeous days well remembered.

Why would the driver of this vehicle need to walk across the top of his load, he has a a purpose built safety net installed. He just never used it! I work close to a transfer station and every vehicle must have his net over the load before he is allowed to leave, this doesn't stop some of the small, light litter flying off though.

Real nice piccies there

From Spean Bridge I managed to get up to Durness and Tongue and all the way back in an easy days driving, but beware the cost of fuel up top, 137.9ppl!!!! for diesel and 131.9 for petrol!!!! Beautiful scenery through Sutherland. The Knocken Crags very spectacular on a gloriously sunny day.

Nice Vid!! Did the run this way over the bank holiday weekend. Pity it doesn't show how steep the first part of your run is. Certainly warms up the brakes if you push it. Love to know your set-up for the vid. Would like to do a tour of Scotland like that. Some beautiful runs around there, and loads of challenging roads. Pity the tourists drive so slow, i now drive round there like a local, but not like a nutter.

Having left Portree late one Sunday night for the run to my hotel 90 miles away a pothole split the sidewall. Nearest replacement tyre at Fort William 107 miles away. I always carry a spare.

Think this is more likely correct. My sisters previous dog used to turn circles too in long grass to trample it down as though checking nothing was hidden there. Must agree also about the larger breed my late mothers Cairn was almost overweight at 20lb but while walking him one day came across a much larger Westie, owner said he was a skye one, at about 30lb.Beautiful dog it was too.

Well done sir! It would be a bonus if they crushed his car as well as send him down.

Looks like a stove enamelled Hammerite paint job!

'Black Jacks' were 4 for a penny, sixpence got you into the pictures 'upstairs' on a saturday morning, 50 per side football matches in the school playground, no one bothering about bruised knees or battered clothes during the match. happy memories.

Cupra R?

nice site, comes up with some weird combinations too. much prefer whiskey and A drop of water myself

That is utterly disgusting. Averaging 50mpg you could drive that, there and back for less than £150.

Some detailers have all the luck. Has Baker21 seen this thread yet? Some beautiful places to work in and some awesome motors too.

It's been a long time since i used either of these guys but the work was good J A Baddeley and co Palm Street New Basford Nottingham NG7 7HS E mail: [email protected] Nottingham platers Ltd. Southwark Street Basford Nottingham E-mail: [email protected]

MEN ARE JUST HAPPIER PEOPLE If Laura, Kate and Sarah go out for lunch, they will call each other 
Laura, Kate and Sarah. If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately refer to 
each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla and Four-eyes. EATING OUT When the bill arrives, Mike, Dave and John will each throw in £20,
even though it's only for £32.50. None of them will have anything 
smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.
When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket calculators. MONEY A man will pay £2 for a £1 item he needs.
A woman will pay £1 for a £2 item that she doesn't need but it's on 
sale. BATHROOMS A man has seven items in his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste,
shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, shampoo and a towel.... The average number of items in the typical woman's bathroom is 337.
A man would not be able to identify more than 20 of these items. ARGUMENTS A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument. FUTURE A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife. SUCCESS A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man. MARRIAGE A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, but she does. DRESSING UP A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty
the trash, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.
A man will dress up for weddings and funerals. NATURAL Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.
Women somehow deteriorate during the night. OFFSPRING Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows
about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favorite foods,
secret fears and hopes and dreams.
A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY A married man should forget his mistakes. There's no use in two people remembering the same thing!

IIRC it is the radio station that transmits a coded signal to change your radio to the appropriate station to receive a traffic report. Another transmission of this code sets the radio back to normal. Many times a radio station hits this code by mistake or forgets to send the finish signal at the end of the report. Any station within range will set your radio to TP and more often than not the report is usually not relevant to the traveller. This is why I never bother with TP unless I’m stuck in a huge jam and want to find out how long I will be there.

mine is a little bit tidier, obviously not doing much at the moment.

To much information gathered and spread around without proper controls in place. It's just to easy to 'compute' all these facts nowadays.
