  1. Been a while since I've logged into the forum thought I would add my current ride, currently on loan from a family member who has owned it from new with the plan to take it on full time as he doesn't really ride it any more. 2003 Moto Guzzi California Stone 1064cc V-twin less less then 9000 miles on it. Coming from a bandit 600 this feels very alien to me. The bandit is currently very unwell with fuelling issues, replaced all of the ignition system and rebuilt the carbs. But when it is hot it decides to blow fuel out of the back of the carbs into the air box, any one have any ideas? Ps it done this before and after rebuilding and cleaning out the carbs.
  2. if your doing nothing all day because your afraid you will be tired of an evening for work thats probably why your tired. If you don't do anything all day it makes you more tired. On the work side of things do both for a bit then leave the one thats not for you. Im sure for your first couple of weeks at halfords you wont be on overtime as they will need to train you etc etc. I know my company don't give new staff hours over their contract until they have a bit of experience and confidence.

    Films!?

    watched transendence last night nearly fell asleep, so much potential i just dont think they done it well at all.
  5. wow a few old faces in there mowgli and andy ball. Makes me miss riding my bikes in a state sat in a garage. Also mr Anscombe appearing in here. that took a lot of spell check english is hard. nice video.
  6. if your just after a basic psu try looking at novatechs own ones ive been using one in my rig for about 6 months so far so good. Right I have a questions Im having an odd intermittent problem with my pc. Im starting to think its my wireless card, as it only happens when Im online. I tends to happen if I load a game and play online in the first game I play i will get massive lag kick in for a few minutes like going from 39ms ping to 1000 plus this will last for a few minutes then the rest of the machine follows suit and it gets jumpy as hell. A quick ctrl alt dlt and restart will solve this and all the time the computer is on after the restart I can do what ever I want play for as long as I want with no repeat of the problem. It also happens when using the internet. It never happens when im not doing anything that actually uses the internet like watching movies tv shows or playing single player games. Any ideas? I dont really want to run an ethernet cable around the lounge as I use it as a media station and its set up next to my tv not at a desk. PS. Im also tight and dont want to spend money if i can avoid it.
  7. does any one else miss the days of best of the internet filling up quickly? I think trials forum has drained the internet of everything funny over the years. on a side note I check trials forum daily but this is the first time ive signed in, in about a year i think.
  8. drinking on a monday night because you don't have to work tuesday. drinking by yourself monday night because you don't have to work tuesday, drinks a drink right?
  9. Any forum dwellers play league of legends?
  10. repair persmissions can be pretty usefull i used it on my late 2008 macbook and it did speed up a bit afterwards. Also a ram upgrade can do huge differences i upgraded from 2 to 8 gig of ram and it runs like its brand new now and mine is older and lower spec then yours is. Its probably something really petty thats doing it so I would recomend taking it into apple there is no harm in doing so. I have heard mixed reviews about lion slowing down some machines im on snow leopard 10.6.8 with no issues at all. It could potentially be the hard drive giving up mines over 5 years old no issues but hard drives can be hit or miss though. Battery wise yeah that happens after some time mine last about 2.5 - 3.5 depending on what im doing and what mood it is in lol.
  11. dragging up an old thread, cant find the overclocking one but just bought myself a new pc to start getting back into pc gaming. Just bought an i5 8gig corsair ram, 1tb hard drive. Just need a graphics card next month as the intergrated wont do for long. and an SSD for quick boot times.
  12. possibly although its probably more effort then I would ever go to haha. Plus when it does decide its not playing it means i get a free lift in a nice warm car generally with a mug of coffee so it has its upsides haha
  13. I hate cold weather its running havoc on my battery as the bikes stored outside, need to go buy a new one. But im broke.
  14. now i'm no small guy im 6"1 and weigh in at 19.1st but you wouldnt know it by looking at me. I have a bit of a gut that i have tried for years to shift but to no avail, Ive changed diets ive increased and changed exercise etc but part of my genetic make up makes it very difficult for me to shift fat. I have a fairly active job aswell. I may not ride trials any more but I do MMA and thats one hell of a work out, the smallest i have been in the last 4 years is 17.6st. Am i a drain on the NHS? My dad is very similar he wears a XXXL shirt eats no more then any one else I know just what he does eat he's metabalism takes a long time to process, he's a coach driver and does a lot of work for cruise ships so is loading and unloading suitcases most of his day. He used to cycle to and from work 5 miles each way and the same as me never managed to lose the weight.
