    I’d definately go for a Zetec over a K-series.
    K-series are very fragile at anything over 180bhp.
    My mate used to race an ex Tomcat challenge 220 turbo, engine used to expire every other meeting on average(was nearly 400bhp though)

    I guarentee it will out run you no matter how quick you are.
    In my experience, stop, dismount, make self look as large as possible and bellow at it.
    So far its worked everytime.
    It thinks you are prey, when it realises there’s a good chance its the prey it finds something less painful to do.
    Having said that, i hate irresponsible dog owners(being a very responsible one myself), maybe contact the plod and get them to go round for a ‘chat’.

    RSPCA at Stubbington were really helpful.
    All the kennels have info re the dog in that kennel/run.
    You will be able to meet the dog and take it for a walk etc.
    Expect any dog you take home to be a bit nuts or very subdued for at least a week after you get it home as it takes time for them to adjust.
    Ours reduced a 3 seater sofa to a pile of fluff when we left her for 1 hour to go shopping about 3 weeks after we got her, but turned out to be brilliant with a bit of consideration and patients 😀

    When i lived in Hedge End we rehomed a Austrian short haired pincer(they told us she was a Stafx) from the RSPCA at stubbington.
    They will do an inspection of your home to make sure your garden is secure etc and that someone will be at home for most of the day.
    They had around 150 dogs at that point which was 14 years ago.
    Only dog type i wouldn’t rehome are the breads that are regarded as more aggressive ie Rotties, dobermans, stafs etc.
    Nothing detremental to any of these breeds, i have a lovely Staf myself, but you have no idea what influence a previous owner may have had.
    There’s a Blue Cross in Hedge End aswell, they tend to be more fussy about where the dogs are going and how much time you will be spoending at home.

    Depends what you are sending.
    For all my bike related stuff i use ‘senditnow’ which is essentially parcelforce only cheaper.
    I’ve sent whole bikes 48 hour delivery for £10.99 😀
    The driver that picks things up from me said that basically if he could comfortably lift it into the back of the van he had know problem taking it.

    This is going to down well 🙂 🙂
    Judging by what looks like stone walls on both sides they may have just been reinstating a trackway/road?
    Also, i doubt if the chippings would be for horseriders benefit as it plays f*ck with their hooves.
    Does seem to be a complete waste of money though!

    Llangennith on the Gower Penninsula is really nice place for ‘beginners’. Not sure how close you could be to the beach if you didn’t camp though.
    Lots of B&B’s though and a really nice pub on Worm’s head

    Sorry for your loss. My father and auntie recently administered my late grandmothers estate. A sizeable lump of money plus a house to sell etc. They found the best way was to wait until all the money was in one place, ie after the house was sold. And then split the money between the benefactors.
    All benefactors were required to sign twice for what they were given. A copy for the benefactor and a copy for my dads paperwork.
    Everything went without a hitch and it didn’t cost a penny.

    I’m in the process of doing this at the moment.
    Currently running 445mm P2’s, but with a 26″ wheel as my mate who builds my wheels is in Greenland.
    Feels the same as with an 80mm fork at the mo, 29er wheel will raise the front about another 25-30mm so the equivillent of running a 100mm fork?
    Suck it and see really, it will either handle like a chopper or it won’t.
    One bonus i have found already is that the slight raise at the front has moved the centre of gravity a little and gives a bit more traction when climbing.

    Subaru Legacy Outback 2.5 non turbo.
    Awesome car, bit juicy but not ridiculous. Servicing is not too bad apart from cambelt which is a £250 job.
    I thoroughly enjoyed mine.

    Do you want a cage,ie a box that the dog goes in? Or just some bars to stop the dog getting out of the boot and into the front while you are driving?
    For cages Wilko’s are defo good, as for bars they are a bit harder to get hold off and usually make and model specific i think.

    Is there a Wilkinsons in Bristol? I got my medium one for my Staf there, could do with a larger one now though.
    Reasonable quality cages and much cheaper than Pets at home etc.

    About 4 weeks ago myself and my workmates were given the choice between taking a 25% pay cut or 3 of the work force being made redundent. As a result 3 of the worlds laziest barstewards were made redundent 😀

    As far as i’m aware he left/was punted out of Southampton due to a severe clash of personalities with the son of the recently deceased chairman.
    Shame he went when he did as Saints had turned a corner(finally) and were on the up.
    Good luck to him, but if he doesn’t have money to spend in the January transfer window he’s stuffed.
