    Charge had some duster skinny frames on ebay for £149.00. Damn bargain, a quick search still brings them up, but not sure what sizes are left. If i was after a frame I would get one.

    For goodness sakes, can’t you all see that banana skins are a danger to all, comedy slapstick has proven this over the years. :x

    Loved the film, saw it with my 12 yr old daughter at the pictures when it came out, both of us crying with laughter. I will keep an eye out for the dvd.

    Try a mini countryman (not the 4×4), the 2 wheel drive version, Good seating position, girlie, (wife loves hers), comes with the mini tlc service pack, holds the value well too. Petrol is economical too, the wife gets 45plus mpg.

    Try Merlin cycles, http://www.merlincycles.com/contact-us.html
    They are showing black flow ex rims in stock on their wheel builder, so they may have some in stock if its just the rims you are after. If you want the whole wheel I would recommend them for a build up.

    I am lucky enough to own 2 bikes, a ht and full suss. Both get ridden and used, but i have spent/still spend a lot of my hard earned on them, so I look after them too. They get cleaned and helitaped at new. Some guys I ride with never clean or look after their bikes. Funnily enough these guys are the ones who usually have a mechanical issue during a ride. They often comment on how clean mine look and ask why I bother as its going to get mucky again.

    Our house came with an unheated conservatory, so we just use a plug in Delonghi oil radiator. Warm enough in the winter.

    Mate in work ran a boxter s for a few years, he had no issues BUT his was subject to a gearbox recall (manual’box) so I guess you need to ensure a full history, ensure that all recalls have been done etc.
    He used his as a daily commute from Warrington to Chester and loved it. Got a fairly good mpg too.

    As above, small claims court. Be prepared to be on a list of creditors. If the firm has gone bust you may not get anything back.

    I don’t know, thats a helluvalot for a rear mech, i very rarely see bikes with xtr on now (i am sure someone will correct me here). Maybe when trickle down gets to xt we may see more of an impact.

    Mrs is on her 4th lease car (pcp) through mini. She chose this due to small deposit, means shehas run a new car since 2007. Mini has the TLC package which is why she uses it. No issues on the mileage either. She gets the finance quote at 6k per year, but she actually does about 9k. As she just trades it in after 2 years the mileage isn’t taken into account. The mileage is only an issue if you want to hand the car back after the term and walk away.

    I watch the F1 quite a bit and you often see the red bull drivers sipping stuff from the red bull sponsored bottles. I can’t imagine that it would be red bull in there but i wonder if Seb Vettel could claim he won all those titles whilst off his biscuits on red bull??

    I’m 46, in the 70’s my Unigate milkman used to deliver pop, Corona in glass bottles. So it’s not just kids of today who have been brought up on “Cola and other sugar-laden gloop”

    Don’t forget soda stream too. :D

    I guess thats why most of the guys used the Parachute, on the xc stuff they used it as a normal lid, then on the dh sections they just clipped on the chinguard. Best of both worlds, and not too sweaty. (mind you last year on the tops there were snowdrifts, and it was bloody freezing on some of the chairlifts) :?

    Ive a work collegue comming over to the UK from our India office in a few weeks. She not only wont eat meat or eggs or cheese, she wont eat veg thats killed !

    Which means she cant eat veg like Onions, because to eat it you have to kill the whole plant, whereas say a bean is part of the whole plant and you can eat that without killing the whole plant.

    F*** knows what she will eat over here.

    KFC, ‘cos no one except the colonel knows what is in those things.

    Seriously, it will be the usual “we can win this” bluff and bluster. Lucky if england get to the 1/4 finals, but its a tough group. Italy, no chance, after that a couple of 0-0 draws and home for an extended summer holiday.***

    *** i am no expert, and I am welsh, not english , so I dont give a fig. :D

    Its time to start the discussions on Brazil ’14. So many questions:

    Does anyone think England will progress out of the groups?

    Will the home team cruise to victory?

    Will Shrek manage his first goal in a tournament since 1927?

    Will Woy pick youth over experience?

    Will Suarez recover from surgery to face England?

    So many questions, but who has the answers??

    Erm, No?

    I remember years ago my dad bought a toyota estate from a mazda dealer in Southport. The price on the screen was £6995, so father takes out the car, loves it, deal done paperwork signed.
    This was on a Sunday. Monday morning the dealership manager calls him, “errrr i am afraid there is a problem with the car, “
    Father…”oh right, what is it?”
    Dealer…” errrr the price should have been £9995….we put the first number on wrong”……
    Father…..”oh dear……and…paperwork signed deal done”
    In fairness to my dad he gave the dealer an extra £500, but nevertheless it was a great deal.
    He loved the car too. :-)
