    They ask you to download a program which allows them to control your computer remotely. they then install whatever software/malware they wish to do what ever it is they want.

    Very definitely a scam and i’d be calling BT to get their number reported.

    There are few options though the Ice Cream run is pretty good but not really single track per se. there is a route off the back towards winter hill that includes a cheeky trail that was pretty good.

    Both for me i’m afraid. I have to ask, as it’s pretty much standard option wherever I’ve seen gammon on the menu, where have you been?

    Guy in the LBS said it’d work but I’d need a spacer behind the 9 speed cassette as its narrower, but I’m a bit dubious about that!

    you are right to be as it’s bollox.

    Mine likes to point things out to me that aren’t in their correct place by asking in a sarcastic tone

    Her:”does this <random item i’v never seen before> live here?”

    Me:”no sweety i’m pretty sure it doesn’t”

    Her: ” well do you want to put it back where it belongs?”

    Me “ok I will (knowing full well wherever i put it will be wrong)”

    Women, eh! can’t live with them, can’t really live without them!

    Mixed opinions here. Their home phone service is particularly bad (their indian call centre staff are less than useless) but their home hub/broadband service is less bad.

    I have 700mm 25.4 bars and they are plenty stiff enough. anything thicker is overkill IMO

    Just avoid the ‘big’ companies like the plague – they include Safestyle, Everest and anglian.

    Especially SS as they are the devils advocate.

    I love how he criticises your use of ‘quotes’ and then posts some ‘facts’ of his own. What a douche!

    if he was selling because it just didn’t fit him I don’t understand why he’s set such a high reserve and starting price. I think he’d get more interest at a 99p starting no reserve.

    oh wait, I get it now – he’s after the money! ahhhhhh

    I hope Brad goes round with a full bladder and a pair of bombers

    Trying to get a builder come round to do anything (inc. quoting) these days is hard enough without complicating it with more methods of communication that they don’t reply to!

    Sounds more like turbo noise to me.

    I did think it sounded more like a dump valve type noise that you hear on some boy racer cars. Do you reckon it’s something to worry about or just leave it be?

    Yeah, best of all was that delivery was free on orders over £20!

    Does it make a continuous squeak/hum noise when you press the clutch pedal in (stationary at idle type thing)?

    No, it’s only apparent when I start to press the clutch and then fades quickly. it’s quite quiet at the moment

    Dragons back is a good option though make sure you miss out the pointless fireroad section after the ‘halfway’ cafe by going straight up beside it rather than off to the right!

    Forward is an adjective, forwards is a verb. I think it should be forwards

    I got attacked in Delamere a couple years ago. I mentioned it on here and people were saying I was mistaken – I know the difference between a mozzy and a midge!

    I found £25 once in a queue for a night club. I didn’t hand it into the bouncer! I suspect that money you handed in went straight into the cashiers back pocket!

    let me get this right – you are selling you flat for 82k, some guy comes along and offers you the asking price but he will get his ‘mate’ to OVER value the property for 95k, and through his company he’ll apply for a mortgage and you pay him the difference once funds clear?

    If that doesn’t sound dodgy to you, you need your senses testing!

    Just remembered – I thnk my biggest one is un-straight picture frames. I literally cannot abide wonky picture frames and will attempt to straighten it and it will infuriate me if it won’t stay straight!!

    It really annoys me that I am on PAYE whereas self employed friends (and people on here) claim riudiculous things and regularly exaggerate expenses to offset against tax to reduce tax bills and pay far less tax than me on similar incomes. That annoys

    Become self-employed then? No body likes a tax cheat but to claim you’re annoyed about not having the same benefits as self-employed people is clutching at straws to start an argument!

    GPX files are essentially XML files and can be edited quite easily with a basic text editor though some knowledge of XML is useful to say the least.
