  1. Spare a thought for poor old Jars who is as of yesterday stuck in hospital for 4 to 6 weeks due to his recently replaced aortic valve having an infection which has made him quite unwell since approx September. He is on drip fed antibiotics, 3 packs a day for at the very least a month. Despite this he's in good spirits all things considered, I went to visit him last night and took him some chocolate, some Lucozade, the Beano and Top gear magazine. EDIT- I could have done without the grandstand view up his shorts but hey ho. (Here's a surprising fact for all us oldies. The Beano is now £2.20 I nearly shat! I'm sure it was 15p-20p when I was a kid) You'll get that wheel eventually Barrie, but I'm starting to suspect that it's cursed.
  2. Lovely bike, just not quite what I'm after. I've a friend with a blue one of these. They are lovely bikes and a later version of what I passed my test on. Very clean, good luck with the sale.
  3. Fiat 500. Predominantly parked using aural cues only.
  4. Welcome. Bang for buck they are fine cars and very tuneable too. I had one for a while. Lots of information here on Briskoda. Hope it's a black one, after all they are the fastest.
  5. Ben90 has all the info on this subject that the OP could ever want to know. He sharpened my chainsaw using a couple of small files. Oh and he's an arborist by trade. Mines a Qualcast 18" petrol model which I use for log cutting Beware!! Lots of counterfeit chinese copy Stihl machinery going about, particularly on ebay. If it's a cheap stihl (paddys motorbike as we called them on site) then it's most likely a dodgy one.
  6. My dad was a submariner. HMS Warspite. Worst job ever is someone who has to tug off turkeys at Bernard Matthews farn so they can artificially inseminate the females. The males are so blown up on steroids that they can't mate so someone is paid to 'lend a hand'. I heard about the job on a radio phone with the same topic as this thread. I applied but apparently I'm over qualified....
  7. The guy seems a bit of a wimp, I've never seen such a limp wristed attempt to bust a window with a massive boulder. I bet the wedding night was extremely average.
  8. is LOVING the Royal Blood album... They will go far indeed if they keep making records like this. .

      Stick a copy on one of those blank CD's I gave MONTHS ago :p

  9. Not in my boot but in my van. A giant polystyrene easter egg. (big enough to get about 4 people in.) also a bucket full of human ovaries sloshing around in some kind of goop. (I was a medical courier for a while).
  10. Petrol and 2 stroke mixture which I keep in a jerry can for my chain saw is also used for chain cleaning duties. I splash some into a small plastic dish (usually the bottom cut off of a plastic milk container) and brush into the chain with a trimmed paintbrush. Wipe the gunge off with a rag and repeat until clean, Comes up like new. I use this ----> for lubing. http://www.getgeared.co.uk/Sdoc_S100_Motorcycle_White_Chain_Spray_300ML
  11. That be the one babber. I live in K E Y N S H A M myself.
  12. There's a huge ex Cadbury plant in my town. It employed half the people living here. Kraft closed it as soon as they took over. (After promising they wouldn't) Affordable homes going there now. Great! 700 more households and the main employer in the area had to be shut down to make way for them.

    BEARDS!

    Beards are awesome.
  14. What software do you use for video editing Fubs?
  15. I've tried the Nescafe Gold blend barista style as well as well, my mrs only drinks instant coffe whereas I only drink ground coffee (pods) myself. Gave it a try and it wasn't awful which is how I think most other instant coffee tastes. Needed a good couple of spoonfuls though. She's drinking millicano for the next few weeks as it was half price in Tesco so I stocked up.
  16. Which is precisely why I take my trolley full of shopping to the self serve every single time. It removes one layer of pain from what is already a tiresome task. And stops the geniuses on till lobbing my weeks food down the stainless steel slide of egg death. Or packing the bags with zero thought or concern about whether or not the contents make it to my kitchen in one piece. If another customer started giving me the skunkeye about what I was doing they would be given the full benefit of my extensive vocabulary of swear words along with an invitation to try throwing my shopping at me and see where that will lead. Common decency? How dare I go to a shop and buy stuff eh? Highly anti social... I'll tell you what common decency is, it's minding your own fking business. And common sense is what's lacking from the minimum wage drongos that work there which is why I prefer to scan my own shopping, however much I've bought. The idea that it might upset anybody genuinely never occurred to me, but is an added bonus. I go to Tescos for groceries not to make new friends.
  17. Looks like you'll have to tuck your nob into your other sock for a while glass fibre splinters hurt mate, thanks for keeping the beast out of shot though.
