Only a problem if you drink them regularly as with all things, fine once in a while, bad if a daily indulgence!!

Gilles, just use a bigger spanner :D

Worcestershire here too so thanks for the heads up, have been gradually increasing garage security recently so may need to up the game a bit although only one way in and an extra car on the drive means the door is fairly inaccessible which must help act as a deterrent.

Maybe not quite what you want but use one of the companies available that do stag does as their business, that way each individual has to stump up the money and pay online for themselves and no-one else has to foot the bill if they dont turn up/drop out etc. This worked well for the last stag do I went on.

I watched it and enjoyed it too, agree James May on his own is quite good. *spoiler alert* how many of that lumberjack shirt does he own or was it all to make it look like it happened in one day????

Here – download maps required then data free when on the move, use it all the time when in France.

Just seen on Facebook both JB and Mclaren sharing stories that Honda have ‘found’ 220bhp+ over the winter, 70bhp in the engine and 160’ish in the hybrid system, Alonso now 4th favourite for title!!!

I am enjoying it too but the thing that I find frustrating is the subtitles as there have been some scenes where I have had to rewind to watch the expressions etc due to the amount of dialogue, otherwise it has been quite good.

Its not the last thier they’re moving production abroad , trying for a bigger slice of the world market I believe .

The last that can be sold in most markets due to legislation etc…

Saw him at the Plaza in Stockport years back. His first line was “I hope you’ve brought your flask and sandwiches

Used the same line when I saw him at Wolverhampton a few years back, he was brilliant and as above finished well after midnight, my sides genuinely hurt for a couple of days afterwards.

Shielas Wheels have come up cheapest for me for both bikes and medical equipment both at home and away.

Echo Beach – Martha and the Muffins

I have had invitations from some quite senior managers at some high profile companies and their recent profile views include many scantily clad ladies who are directors of what I imagine must be lingerie companies lol

Nige, 3/4 bibs under waterproof shorts keep knees warm and crud off where necessary :D

They come up larger than endura sizes, not gonna admit to which size but have endura mt500’s and altura attacks in same size and the alturas are waaaaay too big, even for me lol so might be worth going down a size.

This thread has brightened my day at work, sat here listening to the brilliance of Lemmy and Motorhead, we should keep this thread going in memory of the great man.

Not sure whether the upgrade changes much as haven’t used it but also got it for £9.95 at work for my son for his new laptop, he seems happy with it. Gotta be worth a punt for a tenner :D

Says that the deal is expired when I went to hotukdeals….

same here too and when entered at checkout said expired on amazon site :(

What time of year are you thinking of going? Reason i ask is we did the vendee in pre-erected tents at Whitsun with Keycamp and had to buy blankets as the nights were extremely cold, down to single figures but the days were mid twenties, a static caravan would’ve been better. I can recommend Keycamp sites in and around St. Jean de Mont in the vendee, great beaches, although sea is colder than cote d’azur (obviously), we took our kids there from 18 months old to 11 or 12 and always had a great time. Since then we go to frejus on the Cote d’azur, cheap flights from luton to nice and stay at Le Pin de la Legue in a static caravan, plenty to see and do round there with the kids and weather is guaranteed (virtually).

No experience with working from home cover but for buildings and contents with bikes and medical equipment at and away from home Shielas Wheels came out top for me.

My friends best mince pies

wasn’t the stone faces, got all 65 now woohoo!!!!

stuck on 64 too, the stone faces is the one that has me stumped

As above, sorry to hear that but welcome to the club.

all those on here with Type 1 will be able to advise where possible but we need a few bits of info such as what regime are you on? Basal/bolus injections, insulin pump etc. Your diabetes specialist nurse should be your first port of call for help as its early days and you will need to get your basal/bolus rates sorted, sort out your insulin sensitivity, your carb ratio etc. once you have these sorted then you can start to look at how to control blood sugars during exercise. be careful with exercise to start with and make sure you have someone with you who knows what to do if things go pear shaped as going hypo in the middle of nowhere on a bike or snowboard can be dangerous and frightening.
There are guidelines regarding driving and unfortunately insurers are now asking for evidence of your control if you are involved in an accident, you need to test before driving and on long journeys every 2hrs. You will be ok getting your license renewed every 3 years as long as your control is good, insurance premiums are not increased due to diabetes but you do need to inform your insurance company.

Good luck and stay positive, sh!t will happen but its how you deal with it that counts, been type 1 for 39 yrs, diagnosed at 7 and it still catches me out sometimes.

If there is anything you want to ask, feel free to email me.

John Entwistle, bassist for The Who (obvs.)

having seen The Who with and without Entwistle I still haven’t seen anyone nail the bass line in My generation like he did :D

But not well enough that you know what to buy her for £10.

Always open to ideas, I have a list of possibilities, just wondering if there was something else :D

Mmmm, not sure here, rightly or wrongly ‘sex sells’ and is used in virtually ALL forms of product advertising, the link to the calendar does not actually open the calendar, only the front cover that has female silhouettes on it, do you same people complain about the Armani aftershave adverts on the TV with men in only swimming trunks for example? Is appreciation of the human form and its association with a product wrong?

Second hand rampant rabbit from eBay?

Mil not MILF :D

I thought Secret Santa was something only the dullards at work did. Didn’t realise it’s a family thing

Sorry we are trying something different as a bit of a laugh on top of the normal Xmas prezzies, will resort to mainstream stereotypical Xmas festivities next year :wink:

patio and a spade if its mine

lol

MiL is great, we get on really well

Bottle of Port is not an option, she stopped drinking a few years ago when she got hammered and lost her teeth getting out a taxi :D

They’ll leak. Or the zips will break. Or the stitching will come undone. Probably on the first ride.

or they will work flawlessly for as long as you keep the garment :D

Too much oil can reduce travel.

Brilliant, think that was his best one yet

Seven with Brad Pitt.

awesome film but I understand it disturbing some people

I never felt like there was any risk in the outcome, no excitement, even when he was arrested at the checkpoint, next scene he was being released, just fely really bland.

Avatar – utter sh1te

No that’s a semi automatic

Woohoo, the pedants are back :D

More seriously it just shows how stupid people can be and she is an elected representative!!!

As above, either money or tickets to an event, Horse of the Year show, Ascot, Badminton (the event, not sport)

What sort of coffee do you want to make?

Hot lol

Sorry but was thinking something that you put those pods in and get a cup of coffee out of as it is a present for someone who thinks starbucks is the be all and end all of coffee :D

My boys are 16 and 18, we have never told them anything other than Father Christmas is real and even last night, we were asking what our eldest son wants for Christmas and he asked if he could have a joint present from Nan and Father Christmas, little things like that help keep the magic and happiness in Christmas :D
