I remember them, they were great (as I remember it)

Are they standard McDs ones?

If so I recon 75

Is there a prize for whoever guesses closest?

Ok, seeing as it's you I'll sort out the grips too, hope you like them thick… 8O

I could make you a stem that would take a 12 foot scaffold tube if that would help.

I'll even make some new clamps for your brakes & shifters if you like…..

I've heard of Jennifer Love-Hewitt

+1 for Miele

Had one for 4 years now and still good as new….

Sucks better than a (insert very sucky thing here :wink: )

I'm in Northallerton too, John Prest do seem to be pretty good, seem to have plenty of properties on their books…How about an STW ride up this way when you get settled in?

Lucky it wasn't a Hippo mounted on a pallet truck…..

OK, Wasn't sure if it was a real one on roller skates :wink:

EDIT

Which would have been much more scary 8O

Was it a real goat or a model one? 8O

Brilliant, thanks

Yes there is….. :-)

But I can't remember how to do it. :oops:

Am working from home today and I don't have Powerpoint on my home PC…

Including this one :wink:

I'm watching it too, this is too good to miss…lol

Remember that you are interviewing them as much as they're interviewing you.

and if all else fails, imagine the interviewer(s) is/are sitting on toilets behind their desk…always works for me and keeps the formality from getting too much :wink:

Good luck

A load of bikes?

Some bikes?

or even… Bikes?

I haven't yet…and I'm 40…..

There's the Subaru Sumo (all will be rather elderly)
VW Caddy pickup was available a few years ago,
There was quite a good Hyundai one too but I can't remenber what they were called.

I drove a Peugeot 504 Pickup for a bit back in the 80s, was absolutely ace, no top end (60mph max with the 2.3 non turbo diesel) but could pull/transport prett much anything, 3 seater too, I'd have anither just for the giggle factor…..

I'd tell them that is was for sale and that they could have it for £150 if they wanted it (which would be a bargain, naturally :wink:. )

If not they can cough or I'll get the rozzers

I'd give them 24 hours.

FWIW I always insist on immediate payment with BINs been mucked about in the past……

Cool!! Pics?

My mate's brother's girlfriend's cousin told me that if you drive (fly?) one on the road you get paid 10p/mile by the government as a sort of negative insurance because they don't wear out the tarmac, don't crush the wildlife and blow all the leaves & grit away so the road is cleaner after you've driven (flown?) over it….probably :wink:

£400-£500, at a guess.

DFS = Dreadful **** Sofas.

don't do it! and if you do, then demand 40% discount or walk.

Quite right, IME they're the worst furniture available bar none. If you must have one from there pay no more than £25 and even then you may well be ripped off….

Avoid at all costs, I bought one once, it lasted less than a year…Never again…

I'd recommend that you don't bother, they're a lot noiser than you might think and they cost a packet to run so expect a decent spike in your electricity bills if you do go for one.

You also need to keep all your windows closed when it's running or you'll end up cooling the street.

My skinflint tip is to buy a desk fan and put a bowl of ice (you can put the whole bowl in the freezer to re-freeze once it melts) in front of it so it blows over the ice. It's surprisingly effective if you get the angle of blow correct…..

it's also a lot cheaper and much quieter…

It depends….were you picking it just before it started bleeding? if so then it's just nature…

Looking at some of the posts on here I'm beginning to think that my SPD flip-flops might not be met with universal acclaim…..

I've got a Bose system in my Mazda 6 and it sounds excellent (not heard the non Bose system to compare though)

All that effort for something that's going to be a five minute wonder, after which it will just take up room and end up going down the tip.

Not even close, my two played with theirs until the elastic broke (about 2 1/2 years) and then complained when I tried to deispose of the wreckage.

Look for one that has the inge at the front and the lock at the back. That way the lock stays (relatively) free from road crud and if the fastening fails the forward motion of the car and the wind passing over it will tend to kep the box closed rather than flipping it open.

I was behind a car a few years ago when their roofbox flipped open…sleeping bags, folding chairs, coats & boots everywhere 8O funny(ish) with hindsight, bl00dy scary at the time. Was very lucky not to hit anything solid or be shunted by the car transporter that was following me. 8O

I would be interested to know what they would say if you informed tham that since the date of their "visit" you have been unable to find a particularly valuable item (rolex/some cash/picasso/Henry Moore bronze)(not suggesting that you actually accuse them of anything you understand :wink: )

LardHalliwell?

Wasn't she previously known as Ginger Spice? 8O

I rode it last weekend, a long carry up (unrideable upwards from Haweswater) an absolute blast downwards towards Kenmire.

Hot air baloon ride (or a ride in a hot air baloon if you can get the pilot to look the other way… 8O )

I'm a Parent Governor at my children's primary school.

It's not too onerous, Community governors have more workload.

Email me if you'd like more info…address in profile.

Are you sure you're turning it the correct way? (I'm not taking the p*ss, I've got this wrong in the (distant) past :oops: )
