Please explain, hora – how exactly is sending children to private schools, so not burdening the state system with them, stealing from everybody?

I’m convinced that certain Ministers have been able to offset the cost of such schooling against the tax they pay..

Personal choice along with the riders physical build (that can match the shape of a particular bike aswell)? I bet there are riders out there who can ride total XC frames alot quicker than they can more freeridey’?

coffeeking…..Im also cutting down on espresso’s…..

BURN HIM!!!!! :wink:

Midnighthour sounds like cold weather then to me. I’d just visual it everytime you fill up with petrol and keep running. If its only a pint a month and its a snotter then you’ve nowt to lose if it isnt the coldweather.

Shes probably the sort of woman who would read and reread the comments as well! You evil bugga’s

Pint a month? Has this happened recently in the cold weather? Cars use alot more coolant in winter/cold weather (thats if its disapearing). If its dripping out then Radweld and bin later on.

What type of car is it? Age?

Check your hoses for splits as well as it may be that.

It might be worthwhile looking for headgasket symptoms…HOWEVER need alot more info first!

Our Westie was brought up on Readybreak from the age of 0. Hes very lean, muscular and very energetic. Must be something good in that stuff.

Ps. Hes white though, not orange.

The house they bought had MASSIVE potential. Why didnt they exploit this to the max? Was it listed/graded or something?!

Plus the kitchen- It was sodding tiny, was the comment ‘wow this is huge’ being sarcastic?!

Isn’t it supposed to have the best (soluble) fibre

Tell me more about this side

isn’t avoiding tax just stealing from everyone ?

So is Labour Ministers sending their children to select/private schools.

Whats your point caller?

Dezb- expand. Explain….

Honestly- its function Im focusing on now.

Actually I was reading a bikeradar blog yesterday about form versus function in mtb’s. I’d (honestly) now prefer a frame that rides the best but doesnt look the prettiest.

That splif. Scarily enough I saw a heavily pregnant woman puffing away on one. Oh the joys of Manchester.

Just ordered a Summer season. Are you sure 18″ will be fine? I was hesitating over the 20″ button! Will it come Sat am???

Brant, I used to get through two bottles of red as a cleanser after a bad day at work when I was on a mission- sheesh. Thats far too much considering most wine sold here is full of shit.

Marathon sex sessions starting around 7pm every evening?

Buy her a Championship Snooker DVD.

Hang on….this is surely a barely-masked willy-waving thread!

27th Dec (I think)- Saturday off out on my trackbike for a long ride though.

nickc- thank you for that. Robert Fisk is brave with that piece. That is proper Journalism.

5thElefant – Totally agree. If your black and your country can’t offer anything strategic or mineral then you are a second class Citizen.

Hairychested. You assume that the 5million agree that the murder of innocent women and children not linked to Nazism in anyway is ‘in their name’?

I wonder if there is a policy of shoot to kill on any Foreigners getting involved who may uncover anything that would give Israel a bad name?

Oh and just for the record, I am not anti-semitic. My thoughts on Islam though..

FFS. Found a different one. Its an 06 and he wants £750 for it. If anyone can find Opt1cal let me know!

2unfit2ride – will do.
cp – agree. For me, it rewards and encourages a rider who isnt the best technically. Even with my talentless skills Ive found even I can roll down through slow, technical twists/drops without fear. On a big full susser I’d feel abit ‘lost’/not connected to feel how to react. I’ve ridden a fair few things on the Blur 4x that I wouldnt consider on other bikes.

I’m in. Is there a mailing list? My email addy is markhoracekuk (AT) yahoo .com.

It’ll be waa’rm then :oD

Try and get a testdrive on your own- you can hear/feel/ and think clearly on your own. With a salesman next to you you cant concentrate (or really rag the car).

2unfit I was just clicking back into the thread to edit my post to say thanks. Thank you. Much appreciated.. (Pops a pint of ale into the beerbank ready for 2unfit one day..)

Found him

If a pound sterling is worth 25% less than it was a year ago, it’s not really surprising, is it?

Totally agree. However how many UK bike companies are cheaper to their UK customers than US imports? I know some are Taiwan imports etc however surely they are seeing what their competitors are pricing at and matching accordingly.

Dont get me wrong. I love mtb bling however two grand for some aluminum and a shock is bloody ridiculous.

A good way to catch some of those ‘lost sales’ though. Call me a cynic but if half your backorders dont cancel thats money caught that you wouldnt have seen….

A lot of the franchised dealers are much closer to folding than you’d think.

Alot have and are currently folding. They wont stop taking deposits and balances as the sales staff even Dealer Principles dont know the exact situation so I’d personally put deposits down with a Credit card and if possible pay using a credit card. If the msg comes down from head office to close there will be a transporter (from the Finance co. or Manufacturer) round within a day collecting stock and you’ll be in a long queue of creditors.

Anyone know if 0pt1cal posts on here yet or with a different name?

clydebuilt pics etc to markhoracekuk (AT) yahoo.com

2unfit2ride yes. Someones a dickhead. If I could find one again in either medium or large.

uplink, good point. He’ll be focusing on a killer APR% so will drop his profit slice on the car accordingly. Mind you, in the current climate they’d probably say no- cant do it/the price is only available if you do take finance.

If it has to be a main dealer- I’d be prepared to travel upto a 100miles. 100miles even to say £500 is worth it IMO and it’ll give you alot more choice. Any mechanical problems can be covered by any main dealer under warranty then.

Tip- Why go to a dealer? Private sellers are just as gagging if not more so what with the ‘R’ costs etc!!

WCA- the Radiographer could be one of your Daughters? :wink:

MT- do you smoke? STOP DAMMIT!

Good point on the Nomad. The Trek Remedy looks good- although it doesnt seem to be that old or available as a frame only :cry:

and he had to go back and get another certificate that said that not only was he not married to a woman, nor was he married to a man. Fantastic! Class bit of Bureaucracy Teutonic style.

If the English Army had killed 100 children there would be a massive outcry.

Funny that. No one dare go there too much for fear of being anti-semitic.

4 versus 550 (inc 100 children). That is one heck of a own-goal.

Sadly no. I’d be more of a Sudeten German than a :evil: Arian.
