    Our work Aviva cover includes all pre-existing conditions when you sign up for it (we only get one opportunity per year to join). A close colleague is currently receiving treatment for a mental health condition through Aviva and it was reasonably easy to arrange.

    Got that on vinyl-sublime.

    This is great of you have never heard it before, it really captures the time. Also it has the politest bollocking you will ever hear.

    Don’t know how low and slow you want to go, but this is a great album.

    That pretty much is the definition of the task of the designer. Identifying an opportunity to use a technology or process to in a new application

    Then don’t brand yourself as an inventor.

    My wife is a nurse and used to take any mini soaps/shampoo/shower gel from hotels for patients who couldn’t afford their own.

    This is timely!!

    I am currently staying in a hotel where they seem to be ripping me off left right and centre. I looked up online if the slippers are fair game and it seems they are single use, so I am taking them with me.

    Most hotels have switched to refillable soap/shower gel which has to be a good thing.

    Both of my boys passed at 17 yrs old and Admiral was the cheapest for both of them. We went for non blackbox policies because they both had part-time jobs that finished late and they were racing and drove quite a few miles.

    From memory they both paid around £1200 each (1.2 2002 corsa and a 1.4 2004 fiesta). This was 5 yrs ago for my eldest and 3 yrs ago for my youngest.

    Loose connections can do this, it maybe too late to tell but is the fuse loose in its carriers?

    My wife is a urology cancer nurse and was quite concerned when my flow changed about a year ago.

    I had a raised PSA 3.9 followed up 3 months later at 2.9 so although raised no further action for now (50 yes old).

    My dad had prostate cancer (removed prostate) so am going to try to get PSA checked again in a year.

    For those with PSAs that bounce about a bit, she says that riding a bike can raise your PSA and she insisted on me not riding two weeks prior to the test to ensure it was as accurate as it can be.

    One thing that has radically changed my toilet visits is taking Tamsulosin, it is for benign enlarged prostates and has allowed me to piss like a 10 year old again!

    I had to get one for my brother for Christmas, he is restoring an old R5 turbo. Had to get it second hand from eBay.

    I prefer making a conscious decision to play a cd or vinyl record, I listen to the whole album that way rather than constantly skipping through streamed tracks.

    Really sorry to hear your news. My wife is a urology cancer nurse specialist, i am sure if you have any questions that you have not been able to get answered she would be happy to answer them.

    Knowing the area, there is an outside chance that he ‘mistakenly’ swallowed/smoked something and genuinely thought he rode 200K after closing time but was actually amongst the geraniums. 😆

    Why do people still live there?

    Because we were born here!

    Whatever solution you choose, just make sure that you look at the AC3 (inductive) rating of the switching device.

    Also, having seen it dozens of times, mostly it appears as a faint greenish glow to the naked eye in the northern sky – long exposures

    This is spot on, take an SLR and tripod if you want to have some stunning pics as memories

    Check out Levi in Finland, nice little town. We have been skiing there many times but only seen the lights twice, but that is because we usually go in December.

    Hope you are ok, this can be incredibly serious. My wife is a urology nurse and has told me about this previously and how serious it can be.

    If it happens to anyone else, get medical attention as soon as possible.

    I live in Keynsham and love it as a location. Easy access to the cycle path, train station to Bristol and Bath, a couple of mins by bike and you are in the countryside. A few pubs and restaurants within walking distance of most areas.

    @trail_rat – our WiFi is fine (virgin fibre 300 or something plus) but when we moved into this shell of a house i decided that I wanted hard wired connections. We still get occasional wifi dropouts but the hard connection powers through. My two avid gaming sons do not use the WiFi because of the speed advantage of hard wired (even with our fast broadband WiFi).

    It is also convenient for using a single cable for PoE devices.

    Moving large files around the network/Nas etc is much quicker over my ethernet.

    There are added security benefits (not that was major concern for me).
