    evening… firstly im not a troll in any way shape or form.

    ive been a back seat TDF fan for years and seen armstrongs rise.

    i know theres no smoke without fire but isnt it innocent until proven guilty?

    i know people hate him but can somebody in laymans terms tell me what the score is, i sense due to his latest “i give up fighting my innoncence” the haters have seen this as an admission of guilt?

    i’ve read aswell that atleast 10 other riders who were in his team could testify and prove he’s a cheat… why havent they come forward before?

    again this is not a wind up, i know theres loads i havent read but just a simple synopsis if anyone can be bothered.

    cheers!

    all i’ll add is if my dearly departed father knew the pain he would go through and the the pain his wife and the rest of the family went through in the last few weeks/days of loosing his battle with cancer there is noway on earth he would have gone that far.

    You are slap bang in the middle of the skintest bit of having small children. And believe me I KNOW what that’s like! Once both your children are at school the amount you pay out falls massively. Our nursery and nanny costs were around 900 a month up until July and had been that way for around 18 – 24 months. From September that falls to 100.

    My advice, money wise is realise that it’s going to get a LOT easier in a few years time and try to limit the debts you run up in the meantime.

    As far as time/work balance and stuff that’s entirely up to you to resolve! For me that meant a lot less riding and socialising with friends. Again that starts to ease off somewhat as the kids get a bit older.

    you’ve made me feel alot better! thank you

    as i posted ages ago it all went a bit boring after vice city san andreas, the open countryside missions in SA were great.

    it was SA that had the BMX track

    i’ll buy it anyway 🙂

    haha, that will mean going as fast as you can downhill then trying to find the most evil way to come off :O

    i really hope they have put a bit more madness back into it like the old san andreas days.

    before we had the baby i sold my car and got a varadero 125, best type of 125 as it was put to me, high up position so you can see over the traffic.

    i only did my CBT training, to be honest i hated every minute on the road, i was totally invisible to every single person in a car. thankfully it was only a 4 mile commute each way to work on A roads.

    i think you have to be a certain person to be a biker, i did give it a good go and did it all year round, manhole covers and oil spills were good fun in the wet.

    i found the CBT a joke aswell, just a few hours in a carpark and your let loose on the roads.

    again just my opinion, i know theres a good few bikers on here who love it and the best of luck to them and you if you decide to take it up. if you do get the best gear you can afford.

    i love the look of them and in 3 years when all the out of warranty ones appear in my price bracket i think i’d get one.

    better MPG than the old ST engine and high kit levels cant go wrong really, not one for the badge snobs i guess though 😉

    vanity plates… i like that.

    each to their own 😉 but i hate the things to be honest unless they are on a shit hot cool car, it is just willy waving to be honest but the funniest ones are the cheopo ones that mean **** all and the only reason the person has bought them is to hide the age of the car.

    we had a 12ft by 12ft done 2 years ago, one wall is solid brick with four points and a rad, it was 13.7k that was it skimmed,

    add on top of that, paint, flooring and blinds.

    it was a cheapy one mind you, i doubt it will still be rain proof in 5 years but we wont be there.

    close encounters is one of the best

    + 100 for MOON fantastic film once you have thought it over and got your head round it 😉

    again event horizon is superb

    the ORIGINAL ‘the thing’ is a classic

    i thought Aeon Flux was good

    contact is very good.

    i must get the battle star galactic boxset, loads of people said it was cracking

    backwards canoe would be good, bloody tough though i’d guess.

    reverse archery could be a cracker aswell

    I’m in the same boat as you OP, i have wanted a dog since being a little kid, but i refuse to get one as we both work full time and i think it is wrong to leave a dog at home all day alone.

    you can do all you want to entertain them when your not there but the dog is still ALONE.

    (unless you have neighbours/dog walkers etc which we wont have)

    and as said above it is a massive commitment and we’ll have to wait until the daughter is a bit older.

    i dont mean to rub anyone up the wrong way 🙂

    cheers all, hope its not car AIDS my last one had that.

    anyway found the following on a ford forum but the query wasnt answered but it shows the exact same thing that happens to mine. (if the GIF works)

    im going to clean the sensor bits and then see what happens (i think it is just one sensor according to the haynes), my gut feeling it is a block of some sort knowing my luck, just need her to kepe going for another 2 years.

    well im just being honest and its only my story… 😉

    18 months before my daughter was born we needed to save cash so we sold the second car, i bought a 125 and did my CBT so i could commute to work.

    i did it up until a week before the baby was born and to be honest i was glad to sell the bike and see the back of the thing.

    you are invisible, you can be the biggest and best rider in the world with all the right gear, perfect working bike but it means jack sh*t when some idiot doesnt see you and well, the rest could be history.

    my brother only last week ended up in intensive care, a seasoned rider out on a sunday blast, came off a main rondabout, round a bend and was faced with a car on the wrong side of the road after it swerved out too far after doing a u-turn.

    8 broken ribs, collapsed lung, broken wrist and collar bone…

    the CBT was a joke to be honest, i was crap at the u-turn a sod to get right, they made me come back a week later and i passed. looking back it is mental you can just have 8 hours of training then be let out onto the roads.

    again just my thoughts…. not to put you off or wind up any biker son here 😉

    just read the othe rpost above

    However, I’ve been know to invite people back for additional training before signing them off

    to be fair my instructor did this and he did make sure i wasnt a total kn*B

    ive bene bestman a few times, my advice stay well clear of the millions of cliched sh*te on the net and write it from the heart.

    be sincere as above but you can always get in a joke that only you and him know, do it in a subtle way.

    non should be re-made they should be locked away and remembered for what they were 😉

    i did download the orginal syphon filter the other night form the PS Store, funny as hell seeing the chunky graphics and terrible contorl system, but i thad me hooked and thats what it was all about. i know its not that old but its mentla to see how far gaming has come, in a weird way games these days are almost too perfect…

    speedball would be a good remake
