    And of course, nothing like the reality of food bank users, often to ashamed to ask for help until almost forced to go for help…

    If it’s free food, why don’t you rock up and claim yours.

    Wow IRC, one example of gaming the system over 500000 or so genuine cases.

    Edit, possibly gaming the system, we don’t know the guys true story, just some anecdotal “bloke down the pub sez” horseshit

    I think the point is to educate yourself before spouting DWP falsehoods and getting shot down?

    Ive just gave the last of my separates and cherished TDL monitors to my nephew( who’ll cherish and use them) after realising that after digitally ripping my collection years ago, using Serato (not at first, but thats a whole other story) a mixer with a stonking gert soundcard, and a HTPC to do all home entertainment duties, that the sound from 2 sony satelites the size of a fag packet and an active sub sounds just as good as the kit i used to spend thousands on…

    The seperates & TDLs hadnt been used since about 2009

    The campaigns like i linked to above to fund independent journalism, its definately been noticed in the Canary, independent blogs such as AAV & Prides Purge & Anarchist press i frequent, also the campaigns in Liverpool which has spread futher afeild ,to remove Murdoch press from the city -although ill grant there is an emotional context involved with that campaign

    Murdoch (& Dacre ) titles aren’t simply newspapers, they’re political instruments.

    And it would seem that more folk are gradually becoming aware of that fact

    I’ve just chipped in to a crowd funder for independent alternative media, ill see if can find the link.
    The mainstream and gutter press can go swivel as far as I’m concerned.

    Ahhh lifting children from poverty until 2010,children in poverty increases since. Don’t like the sound of that?
    Easy.

    change the definition of child poverty

    I’m currently contributing to crowd funding with the aim of bringing Ian Duncan Smith to justice for his disabled and homeless program, I suggest others do the same.

    Lipos are shirt buttons cheap these days, i’d definitely go with a couple of extra on the go and ready to rock.
    a genuine SkyRC Imax B6 ac V2 or Turnigy equivalent charger too, but do your research on spotting the Chinese fakes

    Could never understand why folk fitted twin 40’s on a 2 port head. I always got better power and road tractability from a HIF44 coupled to a standard metro plastic airbox. Dyno work was always done by Andy Preston at GVR racing

    I hope it wasnt mine you were after, and something in my aging rapidly failing memory kinda says it might have been – it was the most unreliable toy i ever owned!
    – Andy in Leigh 404 wasnt much better either

    And the 406 2.0 diesel with the bust 2nd gear was “interesting” to drive to put it mildly!

    fashioning a working unimog drivetrain (portal gears?) out of lego technic when i was 9 or 10. Working suspension as wel

    Splitter box, from memory, one lever for hi low ratio, another one for reverse but only while in low giving 4 reverse gears, and one lever being the 4 gears mainbox

    Torque tubed prop shafts to the diffs and down to the portal gears at the hubs, all this is designed to flex with the main ladder chassis to help articulation

    edit, only a little bit wrong, a 404 is less complicated than this civilian 416 diesel- god i forgot how slow them 2.0 diesel 416 are

    The Doka broke down halfway from Bury to Bolton, matey had a 300Tdi 110 Land rover that i knew was man enough to tow it. At the time i was up Smithils about 100m down from the Winter Hill mast and about a quarter of a mile from Yan the Landy Man’s place – all this will become pertinent to those with local knowledge- So im on the Bolton side of Belmont Rd.
    Matey lives on a farm in Darwen just off the A666, so the aforementioned local knowledge base will be working out the quickest route being up past the old Belmont Bleach works.
    We now know the tree lined lanes leading this way to be a local dogging hotspot.
    We had our suspicions before, but trust me, now it’s a dead cert!

    Anyway the trusty Landy dragged the ailing Merc along Crompton way, which was backfiring like a machine gun all the way as i ran the engine to get servo assist on the brakes, so all the locals at a reet Tut n Shive called The Bolton Castle were out expecting some drug deal gone wrong, but this ancient old nato green massive defunct shitbox came trundling past dragged on a substantial rope.

    So we get to Coal Pit rd somewhat noisily but in one piece , and matey heads home in all innocence, via the shortest path…

    Where he happens upon a “broken down Fiesta” being “pushed” by 2 blokes
    So being the gentleman he is, he winds down the window (300Tdi’s are posh like that, no lowly sliding windows for them) and is about to say “do you need a lift lads”
    But all that escapes from his mouth is a sound like Dr Bunsen Honeydew’s best mate.
    In his own words ” They were butt naked and i know one of them was ginger and i never saw his head”

    As he rolled up the window, that’s when he noticed the 3rd bloke with the camera…

    So if you’re on Pornhub or whatever and happen upon a film with two blokes going hammer and tongs over the back of a fiesta, and a white Land Rover rolls up and a big bald bloke leans out and says “Meeep” before scorching off in a cloud of diesel smoke

    Don’t blame me!

    The work program? You mean Slave labour, which in turn encourages wage repression?
