    This is the right time to have the “are you sure it’s mine conversation”. It is an opportunity missed if you don’t

    could feel it coming on and felt sick leading up to it which was horrible

    When I didn’t know what they were was as bad as when I knew what they were and hadn’t worked out how to deal with them.

    A train crash is a big thing, I think anybody would be shaken up y that.

    As others have said if help is available use it. I don’t recommend soldiering through
    There were times where it all felt totally out of my control I would have loved to have access.to someone who could at least have told me what was going on and strategies to manage better.

    I had them for quite a number of years when I was in my early 20s.

    Brought in by a change in my lifestyle, location in the world and time to reflect on my past life.

    Mostly brought in when I was quite relaxed, riding motorbikes, or bicycles, other times from what I suppose would be called flashbacks.

    I learnt to recognise what they were first. That knotted feeling in my stomach, the usually rational thoughts now jumping all-over the place, pulse racing my mind screaming to let me get off the ride.

    I suppose I self counselled myself, I learned to become reflective, I wasn’t in a country with decent mental health care not could I afford it.

    I had to cut some of the triggers out,.My love of jungle and drum nbass had to be stopped for nearly 10 years.

    I was fortunate to be away from the lifestyle and influences that got me there so that was in.my favour.

    I still have moments where things flash into my mind, quite often “how didn’t I die from that” and I can feel it rising up a bit, but I can usually push it back down and get on with things.

    Probably not much help

    Will there be an upgrade discount for newer models.

    Will there be a second hand market for them

    We were test driving the new Mitiubishi Mirage, which has an auto brake system below 8km an hour in traffic, perfect for Thailand’s low speed number bashing.

    The manager was prepared to secure the sale by driving the car at the wall to show me how it worked.

    Lost on SMA and AFPO this year was up, but held on too long

    88e bought in 0.79 when the well went to spufld. £1k. Price dove to 30 for weeks, I get tj jitters and bailed swearing to stop gambling on the AIM, then much to my horror 88e went off like a rocket ship to 3p plus, now around 2.6p, up around 20% last week.

    I keep telling myself not to dip my toe in again, but if it drops to 2p again I might, of course that is where I will see it fall to nothing again.

    Lost too much the last year. Will be playing g it safe with funds for a while.

    Hopefully Lloyd’s will sort itself out. I did ok day trading it when it was around 20p

    Would you report a group of young cyclists getting stoned then riding on the road? They could equally cause a severe accident.

    I pay for wheel truing, and gear problems, brake bleeds on these fancy road brakes.

    Cost is minimal. 5gbp to true my wheels, 2 to sort out my gear issues.

    Really nice guy, decent shop and always calls if things are worse than they looked.

    I’m impressed by the cost, even more so that one of my parents has just got one to fit in with the Jones’ and she would have had to pay around 330% tax and duty on it as well.

    A few years back, while living overseas, and not having flown for a few years, I became really nervous about the whole flying thing. I decided, living in a country that was good at dispensing meds, to visit the doctor to get some diazipam to settle my nerves for the flight.

    The doctor decided, after describing my fear of flying, to prescribe me Midazolam, 10 of them.

    My knowledge of the benzos told me these were quite potent for a short period, and in a very sensible act, I took a couple at home to test how strong they were.

    Waking up part way between the kitchen and the couch after 2 hours gave me a good indication that they may be overkill for a 12 hour plane journey and I left them at home.

    I don’t know what would have happened if I had decided not to try one before getting on the plane.

    an illogical fear.

    Why I won’t go for a health check up – I worry about what might be found. I’m a rational person, but for whatever reason that fear stops me going.

    ^ third party cover, and legal cover

    The two 21 year olds who killed a cow in India on their motorbike probably wish they had third party cover. I understand they were held until funds were transferred from home.

    I don’t believe they started a go-fund-me page though.

    ^ More curious than caring about it. I often wonder if I should be caring and helping out.

    My curiosity was piqued by a news report that a young Australian boy, who had been found with crushed paracetamol in a bag, in a club in Bali, had been found not guilty. Police thought it was cocaine.

    6,000 dollars have been raised, of the 30k needed to cover his costs. His parents are saying on the Go Fund Me page how it is unfair, his name has been dragged through the press, and he is a very promising footballer, and should be given a second chance.

    Why he had a baggy of crushed paracetamol in his pocket, I don’t know.

    Has Internet begging become too much and made it easy for people to think that they will just start up a crowd funding page if things go tits up.

    I think they are from the build quality of them, they are forever bags, bit like Samsonite are.

    The other company I like, but haven’t bought from yet https://www.sfbags.com/collections/laptop-bags I’ve had a good look over a couple of their bags in the past and the quality is superb.

    Quirrel must be talking road if he had 50×12. In which case 40×40 ie 1:1 is enough shirley?

    Mixture road, hard packed clay and loose rocks – 700cx42 drop bar. Some steeper climbs, weekend saw 200m vertical over a km or so on loose dry dirt and stones, may not have helped much in the real world.
