  1. One more thing to add to Andy's message. Don't slice your thumb up with a scalpel whilst staying in!

      Still, look at the positive. The end of my thumb looks like it's smiling now ;)

  2. "But which is better , the Heljan 50 , or the Dapol 50 ? there's only one way to find out..."

      If we get the angles right, I reckon the Dapol could pass clean under the Heljan, thus preventing a head on crash!

  3. Do people seriously not know how to use roundabouts anymore?! Second (minor this time) accident on one in 4 weeks. Silly old pr!ck straight lined his lane, wanders into mine and side swipes the front of my car, then has the absolute cheek to blame me saying I drove into his lane! My bloods still boiling about it now!

      Of course she told him where to stick it and called the Police!

      My sister had a lorry bounce off the side of her car at a roundabout in the summer. She was stationary in the right lane, he was in the left. Claimed she drove into him on his insurance report. Insurance company struggling to get in touch with the company for any further details. Driver was from Belarus and tried to get her to sign a piece of paper all in Russian, but with one sentence in English: saying it was her fault.

  5. Turns out that a class 60 cab is a lot smaller than I expected.

      My trousers have an S after the number so I fit ok in a 60 :-p More importantly, the cabs are nice and quiet

      Impreza or mini for me. Or the Quattro for those mad moments! The sound recordings on this game seem to have kicked up a notch

      Exactly right bgman. If I want to get in touch with someone, generally I have their number

      I've never had any urge to get it, but a friend of mine said exactly the same when he ditched it. No more worrying about things you can't affect or reading things you have no interest in really

  13. Just found out that Dave Prowse (The original Darth Vader) was from Bristol. Would a Bristolian accent have sounded better than heavy breathing?

      He has a very West country accent to this Wiltshire lad, too!

      Stress free Christmas. All the family pressies bought and wrapped. Oh and the first Christmas since I stopped working in retail :-D

  15. BBC "reluctantly" give up F1 coverage 3 years early. Channel 4 to step in.....discuss.

    1. Steadfast

      Steadfast

      Better than ITV. Shame it's still the half live half highlights mess. Good that they won't show adverts in the middle of the live races. Hopefully the decent bits of the BBC (and even Sky?) team will transfer. Hmm, EJ, DC, Martin Brundle and Ted Kravitz would do for me

  16. Coincidence that googling Windows and android product reviews seem to cause iPad safari to crash even more often than usual? Definitely sourcing a replacement post Christmas, I've had enough of this "premium" product, sorry pile of junk that makes me look illiterate because it types what it thinks I want, not what I know I want

    1. Steadfast

      Quality! My windows phone is a similar vintage to my iPad, yet still retains 100% functionality. In fact, due to the positive evolution, I think it's better now, despite being 2 1/2 years old and having had a tough life!

  18. Has had Brautwurst for lunch with a hint of tomato ketchup. ###### fine dinner just spoilt by having a wrap with it instead of bread.

    1. Steadfast

      Steadfast

      Part bake rolls, suitably freshly baked of course,are a wonderful complement for a Bratwurst with ketchup and German mustard

  19. A problem occurred with this web page so it was reloaded. If I read that one more time from the fruit based piece of junk I'm typing this on then it might take a one way trip out the window. I'm glad I don't have to put up with this mess on a phone. Time to look for a new Windows or Android tablet I think

    1. Steadfast

      The bit that grates on me is if you don't update, apps stop working. Vicious circle of update the app then update the OS. Then the iPad gets slower and more glitch filled. Repeat. Never ever had that problem on my windows 8 phone.

      Would you buy a windows device if one of the panes on the logo was smashed? I'm guessing the bite someone took out of the Apple is what's causing my issues?
