I have worked for BG as an electrician I left because of what I consider underhanded tactics to get business like promoting saying things

“like if you do not do ****** you could die ”

Quote from the area sales champion

BG sub out most of there work anyway so you could well have a local gas engineer doing the job anyway

If you live in Devon contact Fords of Sidmouth

So the “travellers” got evicted from there permanant site tish

The noun traveller is a description of a person of no fixed abode who keeps moving arround!!!!!

please explane the issue someone???

if folk do not want a wind farm near em fine just disconnect there house from the national grid and see if they change there mind 😈

mobile phone masts well enough said

on one, cotic

Worked well for me with my Mav SC32’s

I do not think I would of gone longer

Shimming hope brakes tis a real PITA

But the worst ever job has to be setting up the old pre aheadset headsets where you used 2 spanners to lock em together

yes any one will do

But if the syphon is blue plastic you just pull a pin out to remove it and simply pop a new one on

I will take some humble pie

BUT will you wait for me

Sorry I just re read your original post my mistake

best you contact a coffee forum, but it must be said that the Gaggia spares are cheap and easy to get hold of

Yep tis a soul

reason tis simple ( the simple is ace)

ok so the 456c is cheaper but all the kit from my steel 456 transfered across no problem no front mech’s ,headsets or seatpost required allI had to buy was a set or gear cable inners

pleased, hell yes it looks ace first ride tomorrow

sorry just built my orange CEN Soul with maverick forks but tis just too late to take a piccy but it looks ace

Gasket replacement instructions

But the Hood does a superb Venison though

As above just change the porta filter gasket I had the same issue after 5 years but reading on the net the gasket should be replaced every 6 months

DO YOU WANT TO IMPROVE YOUR GAGGIA[/u]

yes I was shouting on purpose cos this tweek is brilliant

http://coffeesnobs.com.au/YaBB.pl?num=1143118905

there is a bit of reading involved but sparky is full of good advice

exceptionally bright orange 😀

well that decision is sorted

A glow in the dark Soul it is

Thanks sm500

I used to swear by michelins

But my local fitter surgested that because I admit to not driving like a er “racer” try Prestivos

To which I found
Half the price
twice the life+ 30k and loads left
grip in any conditions sorry but not noticed any issues
now fitted to both my car and the wifes

superb warranty the wife hit a pot hole, bottomed out the suspension and blew a tyre replacement tyre £15 due to 25% of the tyre life being used

Brilliant will happily use em.

Oh forgot to say after shaving use a skin cream

now I may get ridiculed for this comment but Assos Chamois creme is ace gives a nice cooling sensation

I now use a double edge safty ( Muhle R89 with 7 oclock sharp blades) razor I tried everything else and just bleed.
the most important thing I find now is the soap you use, Blue Beards Revenge and a good brush
Have a look at the shaving shack on t net

Charlie they are good.

nuff said

I have used them to do a couple of alloy multi finned rads they stripped them and coated them really well infact they look better than new.

That reminds me I must drop my Kaffenback off there for a respray

I agree with your last comment

But alas some folk think that appliance on appliance off means everything is ok and not worry about is it safe 🙄

yet still pay £30 each for a tyre for there bike 😯

thats them new headsets ennit 1 1/4 and 1 1/2inch

I have a 456 and a cotic Simple

The 456 is harsh compared to the cotic

I want a soul

Hmmmmm electrics not working in your bathroom

Moisture and electrics are not good get it checked out by someone who knows what they are doing

with referance to the first quote which no one else has mentioned

All of these works will be carried out in line with current regulations & on completion
registered with building control & a Part P certificate issued.

brick is right Alan your rate must include all costs therefore £25 is competative ( taking into account cost of tools meters professional bodies accountant liability insurance etc)

perhaps a price of about £800 /900 would be about right but the job may be a bitch and the guy has quoted accordingly without seeing the job no one can realy give an opinion

I miss my Soul. But you’re welcome to have a ride on her ‘replacement’

Wow what an offer 😀

See you very soon 😉

TM to be honest this issue is all your fault 😉 because you did sell me your old Simple and I love it 😀
But yes my heart says Soul especially after I broke a set of carbon bars 😳 so I am a bit er suspect of carbon

Hmm I was sort of wondering something along these lines myself, I have Shimano 105 9 speed and 1999 Campag Mirage 9 speed shifters and I far prefer the feel and comfort of the Campag shifters.

I was wondering whether it was possible to use the campag shifters and mech with the shimano rear cogs?

I have done the 9 speed campag with a shimano cassette and I hate to say it but it works better than the all campag set up

If your kid was out of control at school what would you do about it???

now there is a fine line between violence and punishment

Is a slap from a loving parent at the appropriate moment an act of love or an act of agression

Alas we live in a generation where school is considered to be a convienient form of child minding. Is it not the job of a parent to bring up kids to teach them right from wrong so teachers can be teachers with dicipline coming from the family home???

BTW there is no way in hell I would be a teacher

3hrs and 23 minutes

yep that will be a decent loaf 🙂

in 3 hrs 26minutes mr panasonic say “ding” breads ready for me

but I will be making my own pasta tonight by hand

Your not alone CG

I have to borrow the wife’s specs many a time 😳

easy answer though get a breadmaker 😉

Hmmmm this old chestnut

Do I agree with corporal punishment Yes
Was I on the recieving end of it a few times yes
Did I learn a few lessons from it Yes (do not get caught)
Did I complain to my folks about it no bloody way cos I would of got even worse from them.

Its not about child abusing but teaching right from wrong

As for the single parent bit well thats a bit poor, I am remarried and my wife brought up her son by herself who is now 19 and she did a bloody good job of it too.
Why because he learnt right from wrong and rarely copped a few along the way but he did know that if he crossed the line he would get a slap, is he a bad kid for it no

ok so where does the problem lie well here goes

Back in the late 50’s there was this child phycoligist called Dr Spock ( its the truth honestly).
He advocated that you should not chastise your kids but reason with them.
So as a child from the 60’s I recieved no dicipline or value of right and wrong
by the late 70’s I have a kid who recieved no dicipline or learns the value of right and wrong
in the late 90’s that kid has a kid who does not know how to bring up a family
And the child of the 90’s is now a teenager 4th generation of the children of Dr Spock

Scary thing is I am not quite 50 and this scenario would make me a great grand dad 😮

I am sure I will get abused for my thoughts so fire away but nicely please 😉

Another who cannot read the white text on a black background please no more

CG I confess it’s an age thing

I am dissapointed 😉

ELF sorry my friend you are wrong in your attitude about throwing junk mail in the bin.

What you should do is stuff it all back into the pre paid envelope and send it back so they pay 2 lots of postage as well as the costs of opening to find nowt of any worth inside but your address 😉

NO.
