    We think its going to link in with the missing child case she has started looking at. Possible peodo ring linking some high ranking police. Just a guess though.

    This worked for me once. Its an ayurvedic remedy, and didnt taste that bad.

    Boiled rice mixed into natural yoghurt, splash of lemon juice and salt to taste.

    Think the theory is the rice bungs you up. Yoghurt adds bacteria to your gut to help fight the cause of the poopeh. Lemon juice for vitamins, and salt to rehydrate.
    Cured my week long trots anyhow.

    If you are still looking for a Dr Marten style boot, but didnt want to go the made “elsewhere” then have a look at the Solovair range. Still made in the UK and much cheaper than the made in UK Dr Marten range.

    Been looking at this myself. Currently got the standard one that came with my Dual turntable. Read reviews on cork, etc. Apparently leather is a good one to go for. Not cheap though. Although is possible to make your own.

    The Fiat 1.9 mjet’s used to be good. Had a 120bhp Stilo with one, and was really good. Easily saw 53mpg. Got it mapped to around 160bhp as well. Think they were the same engines as used in various vauxhalls and saabs.
    Currently driving around in a 320d, but have had two 118d’s prior to this. Dabbled in a 116i petrol, but just preffered the diesels. Very happy with my choice.

    Spooky is spot on. BT have given you duff info.
    We have 14meg ADSL and a BT Youview box. All works fine for us. On demand players stream perfectly.

    Years ago had a choice as two gigs on the same night. Beastie Boys or NIN. Told my lass at the time it was her choice. She picked NIN. Grrrrrrrrrr

    Nice looking that Andy

    Going to get my 320 remapped sometime next year. Tuner states he can get it to around 215bhp. Not bad for a car thats £20 per annum for VED.

    Drive a 320D ed model myself. Had it a couple of months and love it so far. Not fussed about the timing chain issues as I think this is BMWs most popular engine, so any failures will be more documented due to the vast numbers of them out there.
    Previous cars have been either two E87 118ds (same engine as mine I think) and E46 320d coupe and an F20 116i. No engine troubles with any of them, and for handling the E90 has been the best so far. Its on 16″ wheels so pretty plush. The E46 was Msport spec, so due to the 18″ wheels and stiff suspension it was a chore at times.
    An E90/91 330d would be a lovely car to drive.

    Well mine for a number of weeks was saying available from 31st December. Just checked availability on BTs website and the potential date to place an order is anytime between now and March 2014.

    Was a contractor for a couple of years and used 1st contact. They do charge a fee, but its not a lot and is claimable, so you pay less than stated. Good online time sheets and payslips online via pdf. Would happily use again if I had to go contracting.

    Love it on my Lumia 920. Thought it was going to be mainstream, but was pleased to find loads of metal, death metal, thrash etc.

    Went a number if years back for my birthday. Would recommend walking pretty much all over the centre. You will miss so many little gems going on public transport. Narrow medieval streets, Roman digs you can peer into etc.
    Good place to eat is here

    Ate there twice and was impressed. Best pizza I have ever had. Full of Italians as well, so always a good sign if the locals eat there.

    My chunky monkey is soft. Probably 20 or less psi. But haven’t ridden my mountain bike in a couple of months. Smorgasbord rear has hardly lost any pressure at all though. So maybe the chunky monkey is slightly more porous

    Frankfurt airport flying back home to the UK. Totally new suitcase
    bought in Germany with a lock fitted on the zip pulls. Get back home, and the pulls had been snapped rendering the lock useless. Nothing stolen as the suitcase was full of dirty clothing 😀

    I have the R872 (Badge stealth as it was before Shimano told them they cant use Stealth) bought as frame only. Built up with existing parts, new groupset and wheels. Ride compared to my previous bike (first gen Kuota Kharma) is nicer. Feels more stable and responsive. Kuota on a fast descent by me got twitch. The Ribble feels safe. Can be built as a pretty light bike. Mine comes in at just over 16lbs, with Campag Chorus and Shamal wheelset.
    Mate of mine has the RT58. Was telling me the other day that to him the ride feels a bit dead. But hes not sure if thats due to the carbon or other issues.

    I found that when i test drove the Skoda with the same auto box. Was horrible. Although the dealer said you can second guess when its going to change. Apparently easing off the accelerator before it changes can smooth it. Went for the manual in the end.
    Car a few weeks old now and my lass getting used to it. Accelerator a tad stiff for her. Fuel economy brilliant. 8 mile commute across York can easily see an average of 63mpg.

    Aye that’s possible Jamie. Actually. Sales fobbed me off big time once on a potential sale of an RT 57 frame. Asked em rather cheekily to lob a headset in for nowt. Being Yorkshire and all, i had to try. They came back with a no, price on the website is sale price. I replied with its on your website for 80 quid and i had seen it elsewhere for £40. Would you like to price match. Still waiting for a reply over one year later. Sales guy canned a £600 sale for not budging on a cheap headset. Ribble got my money instead.

    Cocoa powder is always a good addition. Gives it that brown appearance and another layer of flavour. Works really well with chilli heat.
