Would like to come along but I'm at the Norwich v Ipswich match. Watch out because there is going to be a LOT of police/ security everywhere tommorow.

So then JT, did you invest in HBOS?

If there really was that good an opportunity for short term gains on HBOS shares then the market would have already reacted. Most shares are bought/ sold by professional investors so if it was that obvious they would know about it and the prices would have already gone up in anticipation. By the looks of it they have gone down from 74.5p to 67.7p per share since last night. Of course you may be correct and if so best of luck to you, but personally I wouldnt want to risk it!

I've got access to the kids.... but they don't wanna see me!

2002 or possibly 03 I'd say. One of the first ever ES2's into the country at the time I believe.

That's a clean for you this time. Exceptional spelling, grammar and appropriate use of smilies.

Not all tennis players are emotionless androids with personality bypasses ^^^^ He's third in the world rankings by the way! 1 min 16 for a cracking Nadal impression. Novak 2

It's still such an absolute shocker. Expected Janson to be a TF regular til he was 95 to be honest. There will be such a massive void left with his passing, as there already has, and will continue to be for DJ, Oli and Beau. These guys are totally and utterly irreplaceable.

Another tragic loss in the Trials community Never had the chance to meet Janson but it seems like an age that he has been around this place. An absolute TF ever present. Deep, deep condolences to all family and friends. What a massive loss. R.I.P.

Yeah still got the same Zebdi I had five years ago and still going strong I was riding a few months back with Jimbo Limbo, Ian and Daryl from Lowestoft. Will have to dust the bike off again some time soon.

Apologies for my editing 5 years ago. If only I could teleport myself back in time and correct my shambolic editing, thus avoiding the embarassment of being branded a noob by your good self. Who ever the hell you are.

+1 year bump It's been a while. Some of the newer members might not have seen this one before. Sorry, just doing a spot of reminiscing.

Not strictly forum pictures, but slightly related ....

Thanks for the responses it's all useful info. It is a non profit organisation so unlike most e-commerce sites the aim is not sales based, merely to promote sports participation in the county. So their motives will be very different. I think I'm more confident based on what you have said, as it doesnt look like I will need to know anything too complex coding wise. I can remember most of the HTML basics and anything else is easy enough to look up. I think what they will be looking for will be based more on ability to produce quality content, so I'm going to practice writing short articles and press releases. I have read up on copy writing and writing for the web and learnt some nice buzz words like A.I.D.A (Attention, interest, desire, action). Keep it concise, short paragraphs, get all the key info in and think from the readers perspective, and other such guff. Once again cheers for the responses up to now. If anyone else has anything to add please do!

I've got an interview on Tuesday for a job I'd very much like to bag. The official post title is 'Website Communications & Development Officer' - basically this involves writing content, updating, and marketing the website. Nothing too complicated then, I won't be redesigning sites from scractch or anything like that. Slight problem: I got the interview based on my experience running Trials sites many moons ago (Bashguard.com et al) and I dont actually have any commercial experience in web monkey based antics. So I really need to get up to speed with how this lark works- the last time I touched a website was in 2002! If there are any webmasters out there (and especially those doing it commercially) then please, please, please could you bestow me with as much of your web authoring knowledge as possible? I'm confident that I'm up to the job but I really need a refresher so I know what to expect. A few questions that I have: Industry standard software these days? The difference between running a personal site and a commercial site? Industry jargon/ lingo that I should know? The level of coding knowledge I'm likely to need at this level? Any other advice would be great to! The website is a government/ grant funded organisation who's aim is to increase sports participation levels in my County. A lot of the work will involve producing press releases and articles on upcoming sporting events. Cheers guys

I've said it before, I'll say it again...... Bert from Sesame Street Ot Pi of Monty fame

Yeah at the Norwich theatre Royal. It's his home coming gig And did you know that there is an actual Radio Norwich that broadcasts in the area (a little side fact for you there). Not sure if the Clifton Suspension Quiz, or Alan's deep bath are regular features though....

I'm sure this has been asked before but how come there haven't been any Trials riders on Britain's got talent? Or perhaps there has been and I missed it. Choregraph a few moves to some decent music, a few bits on stage to ride from a demo rig and it's got to be better than most of the drivel that gets through the first round.

Thanks for the answers so far guys. Doesn't matter if you dont know much about Aviva/ the rebrand, it is still useful.

Please could you add a reply (if you want to) before scrolling through the thread. This is so that your answer isn't influenced by anybody else. This is for a mate who is doing a dissertation based on rebranding, and in particular Aviva's recent decision to replace the Norwich Union Brand with Aviva. Questions are purposely not too in depth to get an idea of general awareness Answer Q1 and Q2 simply YES or NO Answer Q3 with a sentence or two if you can Please try to be honest as possible and no Googling! 1. Are you aware of the rebranding? 2. Are you aware of Aviva? 3. What do you think Aviva operates as? Thank you!
