if you dont agree with drugs dont do them, if you do... go ahead. i used to smoke a lot of weed, spending about a hundred quid a week on the stuff, i dropped out of college and it messed with my head a little (yes i was already diagnosed with bi-polar so didint help!). but i managed to step back realised what it was doing and sorted myself out. 3 years later ive started uni and im doing ok. i havn't killed anyone, it hasn't destroyed my life and yes i do now and again have a few joints with my mates. want some education on the subject go watch Bill Hicks Relentless dvd awesome and sooo funny, and read a few Howard Marks books. unfortunately high use of any type of drug have detrimental effects, be it physical or mental. but most of them used with care, mature thinking and respect for them and they will cause little more damage than sitting in a smoky pub/club for a night. craig

averateca are a good spec but seriously, when i worked for pc world the quality of those laptops were pretty poor, its cheap and its good spec because your not paying for the quality of a toshiba/sony/hp/compaq its very true with pc's you get what you pay for as a trade off in quality and value have a look at acer, i had a 14" screen, 4hours battery life (proper usage too) with a 1.6ghz pentium m, 512mb ram, 60gb hd and a ati 9700 which cost me £900 3 and a half years ago. i know theyre a lot cheaper now. check em out. their £115 3 years accidental damage worldwide warranty is well worth it too. the casing was cracked where i' dropped it a couple of times, well the last time i dropped it on the power plug on the back, the bit you plugged in pushed thepower module off of the mobo. put it this way one week later it ws back home, with a new case (complete new casing, whole laptop) and new mobo. all done free...... have a gander craig

right got my pashley ghz almost up and running, went to screw in the new skf bb and it only goes in for 2-3 turns and then jams up, all greased up nicely. running my finger inside of the bb the threads feel a bit rough and uneven but dont look crossed. simply does anyone have a bb threading tool who lives in the portsmouth area? need it sorted quick sharpish! cheers craig

it was easy for hope to manufacture the different types of calliper for the old mini because it was two peice, the mono is one peice as the name suggests so they have to produce either comepletely different callipers or the adaptor.

that is messed up mate, no wonder some girls have distorted views on their self appearance when theyre fed so much crap from magazines and adverts. its wrong really, because theyre aspiring to be something that doesnt exist. craig

turn of the xp system restore, update your virus definitons and do a full scan. zlob is only a low threat virus, but its damn annoying. the process above is what symantec have instructions wise on their site. just out of curiosity, did you get one of these virus's by lcicking a photo link in msn??

Chronicals Of A New Trials Rider: The Mother Strikes Back
craigjames replied to Do-M's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
seriously she cant have any legit reasons for you not to ride trials, its good for your health, it generally keeps you out of trouble and it keeps you out of her way. do you have a part time job? if so start sving for a bike, if not get one and save, show her your serious about it and your making a serious effort to start on your own part. then she's more likely to come over to the idea and maybe help you out? just gotta show your serious, work out how much you need to save to buy what you want and work out how long its gonna take you. just show her you've thought it through you dont have to have peopel to ride with, but try and find a few people in the area good luck
