    Just a thought after reading some of mrsconsequences crash post, and otherwise totally unrelated.

    But wouldn’t it make sense if your insurance company sent out a disc like a tax disc which had to be displayed in the windscreen? Would make uninsured drivers much easier for the police to spot…

    Any thoughts?

    They do it in France – Little sticker in the window.

    Is there a country that has it on the number plate?

    They also do it in Jersey.
    And number plates. I think is Sweden.
    On another insurace note. All car insurance in Germany renews on the same day….

    I don’t know about owning a cat. My cat seems to think she’s a dog. She follows me everywhere. Especially to the corner shop. She sleeps between my feet if she’s in at night if she’s out she will always be by the backdoor waiting to come in in the morning. Our neighbours hate cats and the only person who does like cats has too many of them but our cat can’t stand her. I think we’re safe.

    I reckon this is a red herring, driving a car and riding a bike on the road are so far removed it’s a meaningless comparsion IMO.

    Leave it to Mr Fish to point out another fish!

    I ride with left earphone in (cos I’m partly deaf in that one anyway) and loud enough to just hear over traffic. Off road unless its a fireroad then no music.

    Some companies will accept it but they knock years off for the number of years past the 2 year expiry.
    Admiral, Bell, Elephant and Diamond (same company) will honour it. But for exaple if you have 5yrs NCB they will knock 3 years off cos its out of date so you’ll have 2 yrs intro.
    Have you tried putting a female driver on the policy too? That sometimes knocks the price down.

    Bike claims aren’t really considered as its a different type of risk. Bike convictions on the other hand are considered.

    I’ve got to say that is something I would have happily remained ignorant of. Truly horrific…and that’s the censored version

    The only way they identified the Marshall was because he didn’t check in at the end of the race :-( truly horrific.

    On another note watched Senna at the weekend. Never seen the Ratzenburger crash before. That was bad too. :-(

    Theres is deffo something about the Canadian Marshalls.. they must be all pissed.

    Watch this vid of Vettel stuffing into the wall on Friday… then watch the Marshall at about 18 secs in!!!

    I think that maybe why Newey and Horner were smirking then :)

    I loved Brundles comment about Rhiannon having a bad hair day!

    I read a story once about a woman who used to let her daughter sleep next to their pet python…after a while when the snake got bigger the mother kept on finding the python perfectly straight lying next to the daughter. It kept on happening, and the mother got worried that there was something wrong with the snake.

    She took it to the vet and explained what the problem was and the vet confiscated the snake. Apparently the snake was lying next to the daughter to measure her up for it’s next meal.

    That story is probably bollocks though.

    That story is bollocks. Everyone knows that person otherwise.

    The ordeal prompted Mr Wadey, 44, to set up a campaign appealing for the Dangerous Wild Animals Act to include constrictor snakes.

    So does that also include corn snakes? Watching my corn snake he constricts its food to hold it while he eats it. Not sure that our cat could be eaten by the snake.

    Sky will connect you for free as will BT in most cases. But they will both have phone use but you don’t need to use the phone. Its usually included in line rental anyway.

    Oh and another (not sure if this ones been done) Agent Smith in Matrix

    “Have you ever stood and stared at it, marveled at it’s beauty, it’s genius? Billions of people just living out their lives, oblivious. Did you know that the first Matrix was designed to be a perfect human world, where none suffered? Where everyone would be happy? It was a disaster. No one would accept the program. Entire crops were lost. Some believed that we lacked the programming language to describe your perfect world. But I believe that as a species, human beings define their reality through misery and suffering. The perfect world would be a dream that your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake up from. Which is why the Matrix was redesigned to this, the peak of your civilization. I say your civilization because as soon as we started thinking for you it really became our civilization, which is of course what this is all about. Evolution, Morpheus, evolution, like the dinosaur. Look out that window. You had your time. The future is our world, Morpheus. The future is our time….
    I’d like to share a revelation I’ve had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you’re not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we are the cure.
    Can you hear me, Morpheus? I’m going to be honest with you. I hate this place, this zoo, this prison, this reality, whatever you want to call it. I can’t stand it any longer. It’s the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink. And every time I do I feel I have somehow been infected by it. It’s repulsive, isn’t it? I must get out of here. I must get free and in this mind is the key, my key. Once Zion is destroyed there is no need for me to be here, don’t you understand? I need the codes. I have to get inside Zion, and you have to tell me how. You’re going to tell me or you’re going to die.”

    And from Chunk in the goonies

    Everything. OK! I’ll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max’s toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog… When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out… But the worst thing I ever done – I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa – and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.

    My favourites have been posted already but I also like (can’t find decent video)

    From fast and furious

    You almost had me? You never had me – you never had your car… Granny shiftin’ not double clutchin’ like you should. You’re lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn’t blow the welds on the intake! You almost had me?
    Now, me and the mad scientist got to rip apart the block… and replace the piston rings you fried.

    The Lucifer Box novels from Mark Gatiss are good. Vesuvius Club, black butterfly and I can’t remember other one. Also Michael Marshall smith or the ones he wrote as Michael Marshall.

    EDIT: Oh and I really enjoyed American Desert by Percival Everett too.

    Now i’m not sure about this, but I’ve heard from some folks that if you buy stuff close before a sale period, they are obliged to refund you the difference. I’m not sure about it but know of folks who claim to go to shops just before the sales and get the sale price, worth a quick google if nothing else

    I emailed Jamie@on-one about it and he says no :-( ah well I got my new on-one and it’s brilliant! Little too much paint round the drop outs to get wheel in but loved the pre-faced disc tabs! So much nicer to ride compared to my Trance!

    I ordered last friday :( wish I hadn’t now especially as the frames are down to £129 :( But the delivery company they use are shocking. Partner was sat in waiting for the delivery. When they said they tried to deliver she was sat in the lounge right by the door. Nothing at all through the door to say they’d been there.

    It’s an indi garage doing the service and they are big clients of the electrical place Clair works at. The MOT was done the day before we collected the car supposedly so should have picked up if brakes were failing.
