    anybody actually got a picture of the rear tyre clearance? with a proper tyre on it (not a 2.1)

    i tend to ride with 2.25 RRs or NNs on flow rims minimum and i’d like to find a 29er frame that has clearance for a 2.25/2.4 rear tyre

    in urban areas they should charge a set minimum figure of £50 irrespective of the amount of fuel put in the tank for cars – that would reduce it somewhat

    never understood the drive up and stick £10 in the tank stategy of maintaining a cars fuel amount

    hopefully in our lifetime the majority of car users will ‘eventually’ switch to electric cars with 100mile range – more than enough for the school run, supermarket run, yoga run, retail park at the weekend run, coffee break at the trendy chorlton deli run

    BF3 is great, vowed not to go near COD again after Black Ops crap

    only play the on line multiplayer games though

    only thing that annoys me on BF3 is when some muppet drives off with your vehicle when you are using the gun emplacement to pin down the enemy – and then drives it right over a mine aarrghhhh!

    consider myself to be ‘on the fence’

    total debt £100k
    house worth around £150k – mortgage got another 11 years to go
    stable job, but still 25 years till i retire
    £5k in savings, no real assets
    couple of pensions
    single (again) and no kids

    like ‘UK Plc’ its not the total debt i worry about but the monthly deficit – always go over and use the overdraft

    i won’t consider myself fully secure until the house is actually mine

    often feel guilty about thinking about my potential future inheritance in 20-30 years time, never considered it – once I had a small mortgage and a great final pay pension and everything was rosey until my plc employer screwed that out of us and now my pension will be largely my risk and I guarantee not worth half the valuation being quoted

    sadly i’m worth much much more dead than alive

    can’t help but feel that 95% of the population has been royally **** over big style, but no i don’t agree with the strike having got caught in the traffic in manchester this afternoon 😉

    do they currently have them?
    – i don’t believe so

    are they trying to manufacture nuclear weapons?
    – of course they are!!!!! wake up people

    why shouldn’t iran have nuclear weapons?
    because they would use them as leverage to destablise the current middle east power structure by threatening their neighbours, in an attempt to strengthen their already strong position in the region whether it be political or energy security

    they already sit very comfortably in energy stakes with large, no **** huge reserves of natural gas and petroleum, and currently use wind and geothermal power as well as solar energy, so yes they really need nuclear power as well

    as for iran not being involved in armed conflict recently… what!

    they have been constantly involved in the upsurgency in iraq and afganistan, this year wiped out the kurds in northern iran, have frosty relations with another neighbour Azerbaijan and lay claim to the Persian Gulf, otherwise known as the Gulf of Iran

    get real

    the israels will bomb them anyway… just like they did in syria and iraq

    visted my mates house last week and noted the noise his two ‘little terrors’ (6 and 2 years old) made when playing in their large back garden

    actually really felt quite sorry for their elderly next door neighbour (they have a semi), but tbh his kids are just doing what kids at that age do

    but i can’t say i’d that chuffed at having them as a next door neighbour myself!

    the screaming, shouting, laughing and crying **** me! the noise was unbelievable! (yep i don’t have kids) – i’d never use my garden if my neighbours were that noisy and disruptive

    obviously the letter has had a big impact on your pregnant wife, i’d go round to my neighbours and nicely explain the pain the letter has caused and that the council has been informed

    its not really an ASBO thing though is it? seriously?

    very odd sizing… for what is advertised as a xc fs’er

    having looked at the sizing of the Trans’am and the Covert i’d pick a large size with both, but on the bandit i’d be a XL

    I do not believe on an open forum that posting pictures of scantily clad women is appropriate. Its clearly against the forum rules

    will those who agree with me register their support?

    not i, and not STW either
