    TRH jnr (pink edition) will eat anything infront of her. She started at four mouths and three months on has her own finger food before the main course. Brekky could be a whole slightly mashed up na-na follwed by yoghurt and a biscotti biccy or it could be cereal….followed by na-na etc. If they’ve got teeth, get them on toast and bagels. We were advised against too much Weetabix by a paedonurse who nick names them weetabricks for their bunging up properties. Try hashbrowns if you think they can handle it. Play the long game and see if you can get Mrs.Mastiles to cook you a full English…just so as the kids can try some 🙂

    That’s nothing, me and John Thomson (Fast Show) like picking bogies together. Oh hang on that’s true.

    LBS in Edgeley,Stockport does a gallon of very orangey smelling citrus degreaser for about £13. It’s brilliant stuff.

    mastiles – it’ll only get worse! “well as I’m already up at stupid oclock I might as well go to the Next sale”

    just putting Next and Sale in the same sentence makes me shudder

    re: toys on the floor, I’d be miffed too if I wasn’t busy playing with them. Ben 10 rocks!!

    have you tried the scanpst.exe? when MS Outlook has a paddy I use regedit to remove the profiles.

    I'm refurbing a Norco with a 50mm OD tapered headtube. FSA Orbits will give a nice low profile if you're worried about the extra height.

    PSP5 is dragable 🙂 if you have it, copy'n'paste the PSP in the prog files folder into your new pc and create a desktop shortcut to psp.exe. I still run it on XPpro. Mail me if you need anything 😉

    questions questions!

    The frame is/was a 20" Norco Charger. It's Kwak green coz I've always wanted a green bike, even before it became fashionable. Gear cable will be trimmed once I have the appropriate hosary. Shimano SIS…aaahh you spotted it. The thinking is that coz it was designed for smaller 42t rings it'll handle a 40t ring no problem, and because it came from the industrial revolution it'll have sufficient grunt to push a chain on to a ring bereft of ramps etc. With the XO shifter it'll be like a Bowler Wildcat pulling a caravan.

    A Giant is not niche enough and for the same price, why, I could buy Hora's ass. I know which one I'd rather ride.

    I use an old mech wedged open with the bit-o-plastic that came with it. Works beautifully.

    I know it's not the same car but our old Corsa would go into 'safe mode' for no reason at random times. A bit of googling revealed a dodgy cam shaft sensor relay. Instructed garagey to replace it and hey pesto, back to normal.

    Merlin defo include the rotors for the price unless that's changed v.recently

    no trust, no relationship

    simple as

    Chums of ours are going through what you're going through but 3years further on. They never really got back despite having a second child. They are now splitting up for good but still living together. House is in neg equity and I have a feeling the bloke will turn nasty once he's got the solicitors bill.

    it'll get worse before it gets better

    sorry

    I probably am jealous but I think it's more the arrogance and audacity of the bloke to do things in broad daylight infront of everyone else. The clues he does leave are maahooosivvv. A reet big proper paper trail leads right back to him.

    I should probably establish with numero uno whether there is some sort of thing going on which allows him to imo take the piss.

    Everything is done on work time using work kit and work money to pay for the third party services. Genuine clients work probably isn't given the time it could have.

    maybe alex is right, maybe I should do some of my own stuff on the not so quiet… but then again I'm not that sort.

    why does it grate….?
    it pees me off coz the four figure sum of money he's taking each year in his back pocket might be the difference in profits between getting a proper rise and getting a crappy below inflation pay rise. Infact the big cheese might not be giving the rest of us a bonus coz he knows full well what is going on and assumes that we're all profiting.
    Also, he's using the services of people outside of work but putting their invoices through the company.
    He earns a packet anyway coz he's been here for years. Did I mention he's sh!t at his job as well…?

    The camouflage reference was a dig at my total incompetence to use my mirrors correctly, it's just plain old boring silver really.
    Just spoken to blokey and he was really good about it and was shocked that I fessed up. I'm nice me. Long story short: he knows someone, £300 inc vat, job done.

    I learnt in a new-ish Corsa, piece of piss to drive. I also like Polo's for the same reason. Dirt cheap to run.
