    yes, i can imagine it took an hour but would someone have to pay a skilled rate or just what you think your time is worth like you said.

    30 quid type thing plus the domain registration…

    anyone got any good domain sites? with good quality and price

    how much would be charged for that very basic website for the glazing?

    I learnt how to make sites but due to a career change never pursued it. But i am currently making a few but struggle to give estimates due to not knowing the going rate.

    I can sort something out for you if you would like to have a look at a draft, just email some details and i can get cracking.

    regards to people not needing cars and could easily do without on the previous page,… how would you go about doing your weekly shopping for your family?

    say 6 bags or shopping? that could fit on the train, how i get to the train? bike er no, bus er no bus on the route….. taxi ahum_?!

    yes i see, actually i dont. drive your cars!!!

    the goverment cant even put a plan into place regarding the 3 weeks of snow we have now, even though we got the best scientist regarding global warming ;)

    when the price of trains go down i go by train and put up with the 20 mins walk before and after the station to work and home till then i will be in my warm car driving past all those cold people at the mo walking to work ;) and saving a already dying planet!

    seriously these people in the videos are just **** stupid! the snow plow in the vid just locks his brakes and waits. great idea ;)

    i think there should be another protest regarding oil… i see it like this!

    i need fuel to get to run my business. my employees need to come to work for wages without them there are more unemployed people!

    then my business goes under then im also unemployed thus taking then 26 more people potentially on benefits.

    the economy isnt going to get any better as long as people are having to pay more in tax when they are getting an annual pay rise???

    i havent gave my emplyees one in 3 years, this year is the first as an appreciation of bearing with us through the troubling times…

    next point is, i would go to work by train and many others from work also said they would as i said i would subsidies their train or bus monthly cards except, as you would of seen this last month. national rail has come to a complete stop as too buses. now how is someone going to make business when the goverment should have really learnt alot from last year. we are getting colder winters and experts say due to global warming, so the experts no it!??

    also why would i want to sit next to someone else on a cold bus/train and pay those rediculous prices!

    so as above stated i think i read 20p for 200 miles or so in a car. why would i pay £16.90 for a 30 mile journey when it would cost buttons in my nice warm car?

    public transport has to reduce prices dramatically before i would even think of the idea of getting on a train ever again

    just my opinion

    ive got a great lab mix at the mo living with me, im a foster home. take dogs in and retrain them a bit and then find good homes. his called winny and hes great. he is 1 year old. he looks like a lab of 1 year but wont get bigger the vet said. hes got all his jabs etc done and a eu passport too fully paid.

    if your interested i can email pics too you.

    hes great with kids and other animals, we take him for a good 1 hr run in morning and 1 hr at night. hes house trained and he is great alone in the house. i never heard him bark, but does take a week to get used to new people.

    i personally have a lab, but i wouldnt take it either out.

    i think you can have a dog all well behaved etc, only needs one time to get spooked infront of another bike( if its your bike or you then not exactly a big deal. its your own fault) then the rider crashes i then think it takes the piss.

    i was riding last month and dog ran accross the dh trail. i went over, not hurt or nothing but took a knock to the knee. the owner came over and apologised but i said its hardly acceptable. i was pissed with him and he went with the dog like i was wrong. lol

    anyways dogs are what people make of them. i think dogs shouldnt be near a dangerous enviroment where people are speeding about on bikes. should be taken to places like i do to parks

    they are splined but they cant move splines unless somebody physically removes them and turns the bar around. trust me its a bitch task.

    on such an old car you would need oxy gas and a huge hammer and 50 cans of wd to even get the thing to budge.

    they have a brake load sensor / proportion valve. thats located infront of the fuel tank. often rusted and foooked. but doesnt cause the car to ‘sit lower’ or reduce the height its purely for braking propertions. ie 40/60 ratio front to rear type thing

    its sooooo shit now with all the leaves. i cant even ride my normal routes due to leaves. i cant see any roots or rock gardens. i have to wait a little before i can ride again.

    definatly!!!

    more than likely to be the end plates to be honest.

    check for oil leakage under the plastic shrouding of the shocks. if nothing is there, simply unbolt it from the mounts. then you can see how much pressure is held when you try to push it together.

    if it goes in easy its a easy job, replace for £30 from motor factor type thing.

    but when you say they were replaced 6 months ago, unless they are faulty items, id go with your end plates. quite common on pug/cit

    i worked for dpd here in innsbruck. was hillarious.

    we unloaded the hgv’s to a conveyer. some things were just chucked onto it and i was astonished by the fooook off big drop either side to which packages used to fall off the side, you would wait 5 secs and here smash!!!

    people wouild then just laugh.

    best ones where bikes, couldnt lay them down as the band wasnt wide enough so you would lay on its side, well only took a gust of wind or the band to move into the lorry more and that lepierre bike would shoot off.

    money was good tho ;)

    ;) great fun

    problem with road car types is that the surface has to be perfect the slightest gravel or so is just shit to drive with it…

    were so far gone, we dont even need to recycle!

    use your common sense! if you order something and it comes in a big box you can use it for other things.

    toilet roll etc, use to ignite my fire ;)

    and at the end of the day if someone wants to order something online, its down to the companys to be helping out with the ‘polution problem’.

    not packing the shit out of everything.

    just my input ;)

    sure all you tree hugers got something to say ;)

    sounds good.

    well i started already of drawning it out. money is not an option. but i see there is a huge gap in the internet for this type of idea.

    i have done alot of research into it and just found nothing that even comes close.

    what kind of figures am i looking at for a website to be built?

    the worst case type thing? £1,000? plus the domain purchase?

    could do, but its nothing like facebook. just the profile concept. spellchecker is needed yes or like once again we can just type german i suppose ;)

    spell check that ;)

    the problem with paying someone else to do it is my ideas are all my head and to explain to someone how and what i want it like i think is going to be very hard??

    i agree with the post above, i have a hard lead about 2m long max, its shit!!

    i think its nice for the dog to be able to have a little more freedom ie 5m or so to have sniff and not being dragged about.

    my dogs still a pup and wants to sniff everything. hes getting a little better now but still hard when he wants to stop every 2 seconds for a tree sniff :) just down to the owners once again :)

    like screaming kids in tesco! most of the time its not the kid, its the parents with lack of control :)

    ride somewhere or with someone who rides well.

    i learnt alot just from riding with good people, where you ride is key to.

    i find if i ride the same track over and over becomes boring and i forget basic shizzle.

    so go to challenging places with good riders or friends which help to push you a little more ;)
