This is what the public liabilities insurance they should all have is for,regardless of whether they should or should’t have moved the fridge they did, they are liable and they should be insured end of……

I have changed mine a few times with no problems, just a money making exercise IMHO

Tried to put my semi off road tyres on road rims 120psi into a 70psi tyre makes an interesting noise

anything by TJ, noone can really hold those views

My sisters birthday is 22 Oct so do I buy her a present or not?

As said on many many occaisions the 4 weeks is not witten in statute as it can be varied by product/circumstance, however if you talk to/seek the adice of or get refernce material from most consumer bodies they ALL use the 4 weeks as a general rule

TJ FOR THE LAST TIME

CONSMER RIGHTS

REFUND IN A REAONABLE TIME SCALE, REASONABLE TIMESCALE IS OPEN TO INTERPRETATION BY BOTH THE CONSUMER AND RETAILER AND IS THERFORE NOT AN AUTOMATIC RIGHT AS IT HAS NEVER BEEN TESTED IN LAW, MOST CONSUMER BODIES WORK ON AN ASSUMED PERIOD OF 4 WEEKS, AND WILE THIS ISN’T WRITTEN IN LAW IT IS A USUALLY AGREED PERIOD (THIS CAN VARY BY PRODUCT AND CIRCUMSTANCE)

REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT, THE CONSUMER CAN REPAIR OR REPLACE A FAULTY ITEM IF IT IS PRACTICAL TO DO SO WITHIN A REASONABLE TIMESCALE (SEEN THE ABOVE). IF A REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT IS NOT POSSIBLE A FULL/PARTIAL REFUND MAY BE OFFERED DEPENDING ON LENGTH OF USE.

BECAUSE OF THE ENDLESS WAYS THE WORD REASONABLE CAN BE INTERPRETED IT EXCLUDES AN AUTOMATIC RIGHT TO REFUND. YOUR ‘EXPERT’ WIFE MUST KNOW THIS AND IF SHE DOESN’T SHE SHOULD REALLY THINK ABOUT A CAREER CHANGE

Also got to wonder what dameage he did to the car and bus (scratches etc) that he rides off not caring about

Here we go again and TJ’s misguided consumer rights, the problem is the vaguary of the ‘reasonazble timescale’ this gives reytailers wriggle room to really do as they please as the ‘reasonable timescale’ has never been tested in law.

most consumer sites will advise this is approx four weeks, but can vary by product.

TJ will now come along and ask me to show where the 4 weeks is written in law, which I will point out I have already mentioned it isn’t and is just an assumed period by most parties.

Tj will then say if its not written in law then nit isn’t legal, to which I will point out his own supposedly field of expertisde uses a thing called ‘contract by implication’ something again not written in law but never the less used in law

To this he will then ignore the thread…..

we have done this merrigo round sooo many times and he still cant see his error

Just bought a set of the “cheap” ergo ones currently in lidl, nice and chunky and def comfy on my road hybrid (£7.99 set inc bar ends…..oh the shame!!)

Cannock is about 30 mins away so OK, you are also getting on to the edge of the peaks round there so some good road and MTB riding to be had not too far away

Motionx here, been all over with it without any problems, doing lodnon to paris in july which will be the real test for it

Option 1 – Sport frame with insert clip, most of the time great, but if you’re hot and moving slow they can fog up.

option 2 – Contact lenses and sport frame, you can actually get better vision from lenses than specs if correctly sorted

option 3 – Find a decent wrap sunny or other frame and take it to a local independant opticians most are glazable with a high base curve lense and can be tinted or made light reactive as required, did this for Chipps a few years back on a couple of Smiths frames and chipps has a reasonable prescription.

Personally atm I am using a JFrey 2298 9272 frame from their cross over range ( a bridge between sport and opthalmic frames ) with transition lenses in, not cheap but the best I have come across in a long time and we’ve owned an opticians for a while now.

If you want any more info re price estimates mail me, with prescription details and I’ll give you an idea of what you can expect to pay at an independant

wheel

hopefully link works better now

Probably a case of joint responsibility tbh bike riding illegally on the pavement, driver not paying ‘due care’ (although why would he be expecting something like a bike on pavement) to his surroundings.

Why pay? I have navfree which works perfectly for UK and Ireland, and is sometimes better than my cars built in satnav

recent well known scottish politician, Gordon brown,with peeps like him how long before scotland would run themselves into the ground, as you know to raise finance he would probably sell off the oil fields at rock bottom rate

got me one of these back end of last year off ebay, get it in 3rd gear it will even do wheelies

she is ‘allowed’ to work less than 16 hr per week not full time……

Yes, in fact I have b4 now, a woman I knew who was claiming disability, hiding savings in her grandaughters bank account and moolighting working full time in a shoe shop……

Nissan dealership recently wanted £180 to change my front break pads, (this was supposedly with a 10% discount, I bought pads for £16 and did it myself in about 40 mins, some dealers really are just thieving scum atm, you show me the mechanic that earns over £100 an hour which is what they want to charge for labour

but we had one of these

depends on the car, but had a VW tiguan (sp) on hire a bit ago, and the car controlled the iphone4’s ipod stuff automatically

Cant answer for that one, but have had one of these for a few years and it has been superb

BAH image wont link!!

I totally agree PP those that can afford to pay get shafted more than those that borrow the money, great eh!!

In a word no…as its a debit card not a credit card 🙁

0.5……………..

Ignore the above and see your optician, the most comfortable can be individual to YOU, however the new silica hydrogel lenses are considered the current best

He was right though, she does look worth a go……

gorilla in the sun using an ipad……………..

1 year in UK I’m afraid, but thought LJ gave 5 year as standard on electricals?

hm just checked their site 1 year on consoles

best advice dont just paint the ‘faces’ of the door, paint all edges too, alot of people dont and this is why doors warp

not lucky we googled the fridge model on the internet and found loads of people had the same problem which then brings it under the known problem at manufacture six year rule

What make? we had an “american style” from samsung die after 4 years which was replaced for free as it was a known issue with the model

additional note a decent dispenser would advise if lenses in certain frame types are going to look unsightly, another reason…..not……to go to specsavers

Not to add salt but this is the downside of specsavers, you bought it it works you keep it, If you had gone to a good independant and had this problem they would probably be more than willing ( at our shop we definately would)to cut the same lenses into a different frame, or discuss some kind of discount off a different pair.

Specsavers always market themselves as being cheap (which they are if you only want a basic prescription, as soon as you step outside of this they are actually quite expensive) until it comes to aftercare where alot of the times the service is “we dont care” give us more money to change it
