Usual thing, right wing semi-tabloid picks the one questionable thing in a huge document and proceeds to shout very loudly about it. Its not a threat to our way of life, just trying to teach kids to get along better.

I've got two watches, a knock-off copy of a chanel J12 chronograph, given to me for helping to rescue my mate and his motor from a field late one night. Its quartz, its tacky, it tells the time after a fashion and the strap is horrible, but for some reason people like it, even when I tell them its only a copy. The other is a Smiths pocket watch with an unjewelled movement and flourescent hands, a proper cold war special. Its a bit sensitive to heat variations, there's no compensation within the movement so you have to keep it in the same pocket or you start losing time
Both serve a purpose: the channel is more flash than timekeeper, whereas the smiths is a bit of a companion, a constant heartbeat to check yours by. -
The evidence is the only thing that makes me wonder, wrongly convicted is terrible if you're to be executed!
What, 8 years and then only 4 if they behave well? We're paying to keep these knife-wielding scumbags alive in prison too, money that I'd rather see gone to the victims family for a memorial or something.
Just imagine the compensation claim for wrongful execution!

ok sounds ideal, you fixed a problem with a good idea
problem i can see is upon "retaping" your bb with the bb have you may have ripped the threads out
i recon if you do the bb up real tight it will rip the threads right out of the shell
if it doesnt then ideal but i would be real careful on that frame because i think if you have a heavy landing you will put too much stress on the bb and rip whats left of those threads right out
sorry to knock on you fix

All he's doing is using the bb as a guide to make sure the cup goes in dead square to the thread. It's surprising just how well this works on even really mangled threads. Provided you back off the other side cup before it gets too tight, it wont do any damage to the frame.

You can clearly see he is that daft by the same f**king picture i can see?
Get something else to take the f**king piss out off, why the f**k does my car being on the road or not have any bearing as to how much of a moron the guy that owns that car is?
Yes, i blew up my car, get the f**k over it everyone, it makes absolutely no difference on my opinion or comments.
No but you manage to be a miserable drama queen about every single facet of your life. Just because that motor isnt to your tastes, you have to be snide about it. Now shut up, go and do some work and earn some money, cos that's exactly what the bloke with the saxo has done, and he has what he wants.

He's a f**king wrecker, it's that simple

Nowt to be ashamed of. Its a skill that everyone picks up differently. Also, every examiner is human and if he has had a rough day and decides he doesnt like your haircut then you wouldnt get a pass even if you paid him. I had the same examiner both times on my artic test. I had made a total hash of getting round the yard on the first attempt, but he liked the way i drove so made sure that he would be my examiner the second time, i gave a good account of myself and passed. I'm sure that having the right approach and attitude to the test got me my licence.
Don't let anyone, particularly cocky sixth formers, drag you into a discussion of how many minors they got on their test. It means nothing at all. What means more is when you can take your granny to the shops and she passes no comment whatsoever on your driving, then you know you've got it cracked.

All the best people pass third time, then second and then second
Altho it is much more a matter of attitude, the biggest wanker in the world could pass first and be a total fanny on the road.

Bit tatty, bit noisy, dipsomanic thirst, bloody great machine though.

It's not just the bearing cap moving around on the steerer is it? I got thoroughly fed up of the way mine moved with that stupid o-ring, so I bored it out and fitted a tapered ring like most headsets have.
-
Yeah it'd work, not very well though. It'd be heavier, more flimsy and more to hit.

You're not actually proud of living in England are you? lol.
Somebody has to be, the place might be falling apart but its a damn sight better than the other 3/4 of the world.

In England it's missing a word, in America it isnt.

When I see scores of morons ramming bags full of useless tat in the shops at this time of year, I don't know whether to be amused at how stupid they're being, or angry that this is what's become of us.
In my family we agree not to spend more than £20 on anyone else, and I think that's good. I hate the way Christmas has become ruled by retailers and greedy kids, like the threads you get on here along the lines of "I've got £400 from my parents this xmas, tell me what bike to get". It's just sad really when you see mothers in Argos trying to split a big purchase over 3 cards, and you have to think, is it really worth it? And are we doing it because we want to, or because it's become a culture in this country to blow a load of money in December?
Why not just agree you'll buy something that they want? Doesnt matter how much or how little it is, from a week's wages down to a few pence. This only works if you have the money in your pocket though, skint people try to do it and get in hefty debt unfortunately.

No, only the grumpy Welsh lot with their stupid accents and annoying patriotism (is that the right word?).
Few scots like that
So many infact that there's a word for miserable scotsmen. -

You can pull them apart, but the springs are so soft that usually they get knacked putting them back in. Like Paul said, WD 40 sprayed in will do a lot, better if you can put it in a mug of diesel or paraffin and give it a good swirl around, take it out and spin it, then back in the diesel, keep going till it sounds good

Sometimes people think that they are so in love when it's the first person that they have ever been with.
Not quite so ridiculous when a) you've got nowt to compare it with, and
as The Darkness eloquently pointed out, love is only a feeling. -
Even if Humpty Dumpty had no explanation, then it still wouldn't matter. It's a nursery rhyme.
IF YOU ARE STILL ANALYSING NURSERY RHYMES THEN YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING WRONG.
The rest of us moved on from Humpty Dumpty, aged about 4 years.
I know its in your nature to be miserable and dismissive, but don't you ever idly wonder about silly things like that?

Edit: That pics 2 and a half years old ..
..Through the cider visor, that looked a lot like my ex
. Has she ditched the earrings yet? -
It's all a matter of Confidence, Common Sense & Not being a boy racer.
If you want to drive fast; Wait until your old enough to Insure a real car. Not some pikey'd up un-declared saxo.
That's a moronic thing to say. If you want to drive fast, piss off to a track where you can't pose a risk to my family and friends.

Having a missing finger is a bad kind of a joke

fine until you want to stop, vw forgot to spec working brakes on them
They aint that bad, they do need a good hard shove and do fade if you want to stop from 80 plus, but nothing steel toe cap boots and sticking to the speed limit wont cure

Small jobs like picking rubbish in recycling sites, cleaning trains etc. You would not believe how difficult it is to get English blokes doing that work. At our place, the Poles will do damn near anything, not necessarily well or efficiently, but a lot better than the english lads.
Any professional person has by definition worked hard to get where they are, whatever nationality. If they are better at the job than the other candidates, they deserve to get it. If they have learnt a job, got good at it, travelled a few thousand miles and THEN taken the trouble to learn another language, they're doing pretty f**king well in my eyes. Granted a lot of them send their money home which isnt helping our economy.
Boston is an exception, you havent had fifty years in which to get used to economic migration like most of the rest of the country. I suggest you start leaning portugese, or train a few of your mates to single turnips and pull carrots and take the jobs back.
