  1. I think they do it deliberately to reinforce the fact that you were a naughty boy. It's all part of the punishment. Take it in your stride.
  2. A happy ending of sorts but raises a big questionmark about the integrity of your friend..
  3. As previously mentioned by Syed Shah, it's at peak torque in whatever gear. But sadly at 85 mph you're dealing with tyre rolling resistance which is linearly proportional to speed and worse than that, wind resistance which increases with the square of the speed.
  4. Delayed alcohol reply - yeah I was looking for a DVD writer and USB2 card. Your Mum likes my seats? Was it her who tea leafed all my ally valve caps? LOL! I'm glad it's over for another year, I was in Strand and the 21 Club last night. I'll go cold turkey for a few days before I trust myself behind the wheel.
  5. 'My mate' overtakes in the fast lane then indicates to middle lane and slows right down forcing the middle lane hogger to overtake. Then as they into the fast lane, 'my mate' floors it and leaves them in the fast lane overtaking nothing. Brightens up the day. LOL!
  6. I reckon you need to get out more often. LOL!
  7. Just read this. What was the father thinking? :blink: A seven-year-old girl has died after the quad bike she was riding behind a car driven by her father was in a head-on collision with a Range Rover. Elizabeth Cooke and her brother Jack, 10, had been given quadbikes for Christmas. They were riding near the family home in Blackmore, Essex, at about 7pm on Boxing Day, police said. The children were riding down a narrow country lane behind a car driven by their father Gary, 46, when Elizabeth's machine was in collision with the Range Rover, which was travelling in the opposite direction.
  8. PSML! I've had some RAF mates come back. Mixed reviews. Afghanistan you'll 'love' but Iraq not so good.
  9. As previously quoted, it's a rehash. The only survivor in the world has been done to death. Left loads of unanswered questions like why is he still alive. I preferred the Charlton Heston version where he really is loopy loo, talks to himself and does car deals with dead sales reps. Will's acting was very good. Along way from Fresh Prince from Bell End.
  10. So what's your idea of International action? Get a US led 'coalition' to invade and occupy Pakistan. Musharraf is the only ally the West has in a Pakistan. I wouldn't be too surprised if there are a few sighs of relief in 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, Washington DC.
  11. If the local council have their way, we'll be charged by the tonnage of garbage we hoof out. Grand theft bin space will become a common misdemeanour. Stamp it out now. name and shame her. Print that piccie of her on A3 and stick it on the lid. LOL!
  12. Just make sure you take them off before you go to the bogs.
  13. It's always the security guard. We had laptops, petty cash, food, etc disappear when a new guard started. It was fairly obvious as nothing disappeared before he arrived. He even edited the CCTV tape so that there was no evidence of the Ford Transit that came to cart off the IT server. He was the only person who could do it. Turned out he only been released off death row and had a record as long as Elvis.
  14. A bit extreme for making a sarnie or trimming grommets ain't it?
  15. Why don't you learn to drive? 400 BHP is obviously too much for you. Sounds like another Supra death coming up.
  16. Making a cheese sarnie the other night and sliced the tip of my left little pinkie. Didn't hurt at all but did it bleed. If it wasn't for the finger nail and bone it would've been a filletted finger. It was flapping about. LOL.

    Shares!!

    Why would they go upto £10? DYOR as they say. Otherwise sell!! I always sell shares if they go 10% up in a week just to secure. If I got 10% in a year I'd be just as happy. My bench mark is what the High St banks are giving.
  18. Turn on your heater up to the max for a few hours to dry the inside. The aircon will also extract any dampness.
  19. With the Arrow zorst half the street would've heard and felt you and that colour scheme is well lairy. He's guilty as sin. I recently had a go on a KTM Superduke but I'm heading towards something like a 1050 Speed Triple or an Aprilia Tuono. The new Honda CB1000R looks interesting though.
  20. Not having a pop at you mate, but this has happened to me loads and experience has taught me that I sit virtually inline with his door mirror and let him have it some with the headlight. What bike you got or had? A KTM or Aprilia?
  21. I question your road position. You should've been as far right so that you can see his face in his door mirror and he can see you. Plus it would've given you room to move off to the right if/when he reversed. If you were dead centre behind him, he wouldn't have seen you.
  22. I'm finding it hard to believe the postman would actually deliver a package that was obviously broken into. Postman Pat would be handing over an empty box with torn wrapping and the guy signs for it. I do have a few postman mates and for a start that would never happen because they would be the first suspects and lose their jobs and face criminal prosecution. It doesn't sound right to me.

    Another one

    It's driver error. As already mentioned by Class One just control that right foot and keep your speed down. There's no reason why anybody can't drive safely in the current weather conditions.
