    people walking round keeping a tally of what theyve spent on a fancy phone, for gods sake thats the job of the till receipt,

    Further to this I hate the fools that don’t have enough cash when they come to pay. If only there was a way they could do a running total while shopping.

    Stayed here on my way through France. A very civilised site and I’ll be staying again if I ever need to.

    I’ve just come back from Asda, there are some boobs I wish I hadn’t seen. :?

    You’re always going to have disturbed people – when all they have access to is a knife, then (while distressing), no-one gets killed or seriously injured and the attacker can be overpowered.

    I would ask you to have a read of this and a little think for the families of the 21 dead and 90 injured.

    A series of uncoordinated mass stabbings, hammer attacks, and cleaver attacks in the People’s Republic of China began in March 2010. The spate of attacks left at least 21 dead and some 90 injured. Analysts have blamed mental health problems caused by rapid social change for the rise in these kind of mass murder and murder-suicide incidents.[1]

    The military moved away from relying so heavily on sharpened blades when firearms became more readily available.

    And now they use bombs. :(

    my aunt was astonished when she found out that we didn’t have drive-by shootings, even in the most violent city in Europe.

    Me too.
    Unfortunately the gun isn’t the problem here as the knife attacks in China have demonstrated. These people will always find a way to get their message across.
    Horrible for the families and friends of the victims.
    RIP. :(

    If most people told me the A1 road had London at one end and Edinburgh at the other, I’d take it as a safe bet that it was in fact the case.

    This is the basic idea of marketing and advertising, isn’t it? :D

    Good video and try. But wrong type of RSD, wrong application for an industrial type roller shutter for the “mega structure!”

    As a demonstration of how to get the guides and box into place the video is perfectly valid even if the door is different. That’s how our guys do it anyway.

    Quick vid on mounting guides and box.

    How do you do it?

    You could mount the guides to the end plates to form a big U.
    With two people simply lift into place and screw down.

    Either way I have to take it all down, it which case I may as well cut 20mm off the motor axle expansion bar thing and re-fit it. Quicker and less hassle than them sending me a new motor roller….

    Not good however you look at it.

    I’m not too clear on the problem, but it sounds like the laths are too short, no?
    That is to say that the minimum width is determined by the motor (and weight of shutter) and not the opening. The guides and laths should fit this and would be oversize for the specified opening.

    Get back on to the supplier with this and tell them that as they are the experts they should have pointed this out. You relied on their expert opinion and they gave bad advice. It shouldn’t require any more than a new set of laths.
    That depends on whether I have understood correctly or not. Photos of the problem would be good.
    It is a bit of a nightmare doing these things on line though.

    Quantity doesn’t necessarily mean quality. :wink:
    I quite like the email alerts I receive from another forum, you only deal with stuff that’s relevant.

    I sometimes use my laptop on the desk. For this I apologise.

    davidjones15

    Total PITA as the instructions were next to useless and the motor roller is too wide for the opening, so either one of the guides is bent, or the shutter can pop out.

    Didn’t it arrive as a plug and play, pre assembled unit?
    Who did the measuring? I’m not sure what the problem with the guides is either.

    Weirdly, I can breathe without too much pain

    Proper deep breaths? From what I can remember it’s to prevent infections.

    davidjones15

    Pain killers and anti inflammatories to help with the deep breathing exercises.
    Probably will get worse before getting better and I would estimate 6 weeks of pain from my non medical, but experienced background.

    Much harder to ignore someone on the phone there and then. Just don’t accept the above!

    How do you deal with the “they’re not in the office at the moment/in a meeting/on holiday, I’ll leave a message for them to call you back” scenario?
    Hang on for a week?

    I’d probably go for this as it looks bargaintastic, depending on how many photos have already been taken and condition of all the bits.

    They are obliged to honour the deal.

    Which bit of the law is this? I can’t quite remember how it all works. Price in an invitation to make an offer, the seller can accept or reject at any point. Or something like that.
    Where ownership passes is also a tricky one too.

    Not sure if I’m appalled or disappointed

    I know. I didn’t think anyone read The Sun these days either.

    For context – driving a 30mph on a 40mph limit road due to really icy nature of road. 50m to the roundabout I apply the brake gently to come to halt in a straight line in time for the roundabout. For my brakes & tyres and for that particular road condition that was a nice gentle but not over cautious approach. With my summer tyres on I’d have started braking about 15m sooner to remain in the same level of control

    With this level of knowledge, why didn’t you brake 15m earlier on your super winter tyres therefore making life easier for the guy behind, who you knew was on summer tyres, and demonstrate your awareness of the road conditions and everything around you?
    This is the earlier point I made about driving to the max.
    The Aston will brake alot quicker than a Mondeo, should I brake at the last minute, simply because I can? Or should I show greater awareness towards other drivers?

    If it avoids hitting the twunt in front who’s brake testing me, yes. Personally I’d have given you a bit more distance.

    Mistake. And not necessarily a dig at you. Some people are just over sensitive on here.

    I’m afraid through the last couple of pages you have deliberately attempted to twist the concept through a lack of basic understanding on your part.

    You’re telling me that driving with care is wrong? 8O

    They were your words, not mine. You said, “and swerved up onto the verge to avoid hitting me” which I assume means that in spite of being brake tested he was able to avoid a collision, good bit of driving on these summer tyres. [/devil’s advocate]. :lol:

    Point is Hora, people do make mistakes and when they do it is better to have a situation they can easily correct, than one which causes them to spin the car.

    I’m with the police on this one and the cessation of the use of the word accident.
    EDIT:

    In this case the driver behind was unaware that mine and his stopping distances were very different.

    But the other driver was able to control his car to avoid the accident even though he was on summer tyres. :lol:

    I know a guy in Oswestry who could do it. If no-one comes up with anything, I could dig around to get his details.
