    Ebay Scam?

    Unless it's recorded or whatever, Royal Mail have no way of knowing whether it got there or not.

    Ebay Scam?

    Hmmm, that sucks. What's the guy's name/email? Something about Winslo perhaps?

    Thin Spanners

    Normally I would agree with buying expensive tools, but with cones it doesn't make much difference at all.
  4. If your phone (and computer) has bluetooth then you can usually connect via that, I think bluetooth modules for PC are under a tenner now. Or maybe you can use the USB cable that came with the phone. I'm pretty sure you don't need a 3G (I.e. video) phone for this to work - my w810i has EDGE which is one type of fast internet, and that's not a stupid video phone or anything

    Smoking?

    Yeah, fair enough. What I meant to say was that smoking makes you unfit, because it does. Every cigarette you smoke is decreasing your athletic ability, aside from all the long-term effects. Whether you 'balance' that with more-than-average exercise is a completely different matter and not that important. Does anyone think that smelling of fags is a good thing? I doubt it. Harm other people? Every time you smoke in a public place. I personally think smoking is retarded like I said, but it doesn't really bother me what choices other people make, that's up to them. It's when they start affecting my life as a result of their retarded decisions (I.e. passive smoking) that pisses me off. In terms of stoners, they don't really bother me that much. It's a choice they've made and 99% of the time it's done in their home. Also, I can see the point of smoking weed, I really just can't see the point in tobacco. And allergy to MDMA is complete toss. People die because they either have accidents, or they drink too much water, or too little.

    Smoking?

    No, please do explain. You can't say something like that without at least having a stab at backing it up.
  7. Then they, of all people would probably do it by the book. I don't think any frames are copyrighted or patented or whatever, it costs too much.
  8. You can never get enough Leopard print. Brilliant
  9. Apparently vodafone and orange aren't very competitive these days, there's no unlimited service and data rates are expensive. From what I've heard.

    Smoking?

    What are you talking about? The chances aren't slim at all. 50% of smokers will die early because of it. 100% will be unfit, smell horrible and harm other people. Most will have some form of chronic disease (COPD) that f**ks up their life. The average smoker in the UK spends £63 000 in their lifetime on cigarettes (I learnt that from a Howies catalogue). f**k a duck. Smokers are Jokers If you hadn't guessed, I hate smoking. It's just the single most retarded thing anyone can do in my eyes. Can't wait for the ban.
  11. What about a mobile phone + bluetooth. OK, it won't be as fast as broadband, but it can be used anywhere. You can get "unlimited"* usage from T-mobile for £7.50 on top of a normal pay monthly tariff. *Unlimited = 3Gb
  12. It broke too quick, missed it on camera, haha. Here's an after picture For sale, one Ashton ET 24, the usual scratches.
  13. That's stupid. 6 days x 100 cars x 8 years = not actually that long. Granted they do a decent mileage every day, but still, you're really, really wrong.
  14. I won't miss him, and if he comes back with a better attitude, then great.
  15. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....showtopic=97105 Interestingly, there aren't that many things that come up on the forum when you search for 'Peru'.
  16. There was a shop round by me selling some of them of Rocky and another of Marilyn Monroe. They were pretty big (Maybe A1 size?), and looked really good, but they were like £150 each. Er, no.
  17. Blimey, are they just all brand new or something? Only the tyres look like they might have been used.
  18. I think he may have just joined Ashton, he's on their team on the website. http://www.ashtonbikes.com/team/martin-hawes/

    Urban Exploring

    I'm pretty sure someone will be along to correct this, but I think that trespassing is NOT an arrest-able offence; they can only ask you to leave. However, if you BREAK in, then you can be done for criminal damage. Or something.
  20. Here's the other topic: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....showtopic=85746 BB drop FTL
  21. I'm pretty sure I remember seeing a Diamondback that looked like the original Coust/T-Rex design a couple of years ago. But yeah, everyone is using frames like that, there's no point slagging them off for it. Perhaps it's just that picture, but is there some weird downtube going on?
  22. Oh right, that's pretty much the way I did it, but I assumed there would be an easier way using a built-in filter. Ta anywho EDIT: Actually you can use the 'cutout' filter to do it, not sure what versions of photoshop have this, but CS2 does. Anyway, you need to desat the image first but it works fine. Simpler than the other method anyway, although there isn't as much control.
  23. Just out of interest, what was the photoshop filter you were using for the original idea? Also, this was the sort of thing I was on about, instead of using 50% grey, use a different colour:
