    My Fuel EX is the 18.5 / 17.5 size.
    I'm 5'11", 32" inside leg.
    Size is spot on for me & my style (lack of) of riding.
    I could barely tell the difference when testing this one & the next size up (19.5) for fit, but this one feels more 'chuckable' on the trails.

    Yes, but only on one knee. And it's not always the same knee.
    Gets really hot too!

    The HTC Desire is much nicer in both form & function to the HD2 imo.
    You can either install CoPilot on the Desire, or use the Google Maps turn by turn for SatNav.

    There's also this one floating about for bread machines:

    Ingredients

    * 305 ml water
    * 500g Strong White Flour
    * 1½ tsp fast action dried yeast
    * 25g butter
    * 1 tbsp milk powder
    * 1 tsp fine sea salt
    * 1 tbsp honey
    * 1 tbsp malt extract
    * 1 tbsp black treacle
    * 150g sultanas

    Method

    1. Breadmaker Malt Loaf Place all ingredients into the pan except the sultanas by following your manufacturers’ instructions regarding the order of liquid/dry ingredients.
    2. Place the sultanas in the nut/raisin dispenser (if available) and set your machine to the basic/normal raisin setting, medium crust.
    3. If you do not have a nut/raisin dispenser when the machine indicates (with a beeping sound), add the sultanas and close the lid.

    Not used a bread machine for it, but we use this recipe:

    MALT LOAF – makes 2 x 1lb loaves (450g)

    8oz/225g raisins
    3oz/85g butter
    half pint/290ml water
    12oz/340g self-raising flour
    half teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
    pinch of salt
    8oz/225g soft dark brown sugar
    2 large eggs, beaten
    2 tbsp malt extract

    1. Preheat oven to 180c/350f/gas 4. Grease and flour 2 x 1lb loaf tins.

    2. Put the sultanas, raisins, butter and water together into a large saucepan. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Allow to cool a little.

    3. In a large mixing bowl, sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt together. Stir in the sugar.

    4. Pour in the warm fruit mixture and add the beaten eggs and malt extract. Mix well with a spoon.

    5. Pour into the prepared tins and bake in the centre of the oven for 30 minutes, then move to a lower shelf and bake for a further 30 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Allow to cool in the tin for five minutes.

    Our 5 & 7 yr olds both have one.
    They are great for long car journeys / travelling in general.

    Their usage is controlled by me or the mrs, they know when game-time is up, and there are no problems getting them to put the DS down.
    Both kids also like to play the 'thinking' style of game, brain-training or whatever it is, along with the run of the mill blast & zap 'em games.
    Works for us, they are both very active kids, so the DS just gives them an extra means for learning / recreation.

    Slap the E & A /D, pop on the D & G.
    Light gague strings, roundwound, and lower them a bit.
    Something like Ernie Ball Super Slinky's, or some Bass Boomers.
    Personally, I loved the Slinky's, a nice bright funky sound.

    Most, if not all, that I have come across will just send you a generic refilled compatible cartridge.
    You could buy the ink and refill it yourself though:

    I remember going through a phase (aged 7) where I was convinced that my heart would stop beating & I would die in my sleep during that night.
    That gave me a fear of going to bed.
    Of course, it never happened, and so the following night I thought that it would happen that night, and so on.
    That period lasted for a good 6 or so months & was very odd.

    The wiper setting seems to be taken to extremes on my focus.

    Flick the stalk up 1 notch for intermittent (for which there are 6 different selectable settings).
    1 further notch for normal speed, and once more for disco speed.
    Press in for manual squirt & 2 wipes.
    Push down for 1 manual wipe.
    Pull towards 1 notch for rear screen wipe, 2 notches for rear squirt & wipe.
    Plus the bonus of automatic rear screen wipe if front wipers on and reverse gear is selected. Always good for scraping a smeary film of grime across the window is that.

    I guess Ford's windscreen wiper designer was bored that day. 😆

    😀 Well, there you go, something new learned!

    Although, this topic has made me go and get all my old Scalextric down from the loft. Woohaa, this is going to be fun!

    I have a very vague (and may well be wrong) feeling that it was something to do with the level of magnets in the car, which aid traction.

    Yep, I think you just need to use multiple queries to populate each part of the report, just takes a bit of faffing about.

    Mark the cuts on the old post with a spirit level & try-square, cut with a panel saw. Simples.

    When fitting new post to this, you can either go down the bolt method you previously mentioned, or with dowels & glue.

    Some good info here:

    Either. I was on course for root canal, but switched to extraction as there was little to save of the tooth.
    No pain & the blighter was out in under a minute. Premolar though, so only one root to deal with.

    As an update from the FFOC forum for you, the chap with the identical problem has replaced the lower arms, drop links and track rod ends.
    Problem remains, so he is now moving on to replace the steering rack.
