  1. What are peoples thoughts? Are they affordabe yet? Anyone got one? I Presently only commute 2 miles (30 & 40 mph road 1/2 with grasss verges only) to work on 24 hour shift patern. I will not walk becase some of it has no pavement, I will not cycle because of some of the idiots that race down the road and I would turn up at work horrible sweaty/ wet... Presently I take the car which seems stupid, it does not even get warm. Its not worth putting bike gear on for 1.5 miles. It started me looking at electric pushbkes... but they can only do 15mph and are not actually that cheap... Raleigh Array Crossbar Electric Bike - 15mph - £1,275 Charge Time 7 Hours Range To 60 Miles I had even pondered covered mobility scooter but they are slow and stupid price and probably not safe V comuters. Abilize Kondor Cabin £5499.00 - 8mph As far as I can see the best affordable options are: Super Soco TC 1500W - 45mph - £2,999 Charge Time 6 Hours Range Up To 50 Miles Super Soco TC Max - 58mph - £4,249 Charge Time 8 Hours Range Up To 60 Miles They recon 1p a mile compared with about 10p a mile for Motorbike.... Will be curious about peoples comments and ideas....
  2. It needs to be in your profile not a one off random post This may help...
  3. Think of a number any number... Can I have 8 please but if that's gone I will have which ever number you give me...
  4. Q. What do you call Santa living at the South Pole? A. A lost clause..
  5. Hello! I've been held hostage in Six30s basement. But I've now escaped and will do an update tomorrow No rush I have not got a tag for months... As long as the release fee was not him being a moderator and trust after you resolved the situation Six30 is now in a place of his nightmares. Although the places of Six30's nightmares is beyond my comprehension I guess your still in recovery and forgot to put me in the scoring list
  6. Problem solved 17p over budget Muc-Off 202 Visor, Lens and Goggle Cleaning Kit, Black/Blue https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00GQORT6M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Well if hes on here he will know my user name in a couple of weeks
  7. Thanks can I do A and then B or if you contest can you not get back... Just to piss him off.. Oh and as cover is vehicle specific it took 2 seconds to find FB group he is member of so will sell in there and mention what happened selling on FB no names but his attitude say he will comment. Edit to add Sod it Have gone for return using Ebay's system cause I hit wrong button and approved return. My Reference "%1 1D10T " I wonder if he will notice
  8. Any eBay guru's in here? A buyer is now demanding steps for an item that as far as I am aware did not have straps. I offered it of kindness to except the item back if he posted it. He has now gone down the E-bay returns route, I am not include to leave it as the guy is being a patronising d1ck. My item description did not mention straps "Voyager - Car Cover Suits Triumph Sports Cars All Triumph TR Range, vitesse and others. I doubt this has even been out the bag, bag is new with labels cover looks looks unused. For Indoor & Outdoor use. Voyager covers are lightweight yet incredibly strong. The silver outer coating reflects heat and UV making these a favourite choice for hot climates and very cold climates. These covers also offer great protection from pet & wildlife damage. They are often used on daily driven vehicles where overnight protection is required. The Coverzone Voyager fabric is a premium grade polyester that is highly water resistant and breathable. It also features a very high tear strength and can be used in extreme temperatures." Neither did the manufacturers, although he states they include them Who would eBay support? If I contest it can I still arrange for a return on item (at my cost) or does he keep it?
  9. Having dodged the "social" side of work for long enough I put my name in the hat for a £10 Secret Santa. Of course being me me announced who's name I had pulled out,his name to a college, (only 2 of us present) to identifying which one... I was also told if I did not like my choice I could pull out another name instead (very urm democratic, tempted to see whos the last name out LOL)... Luckily I pulled out of the hat a fellow biker that rides a Ducati and likes touring in Europe as well... Any suggestions for present bike related or not, humourous is always good...
  10. I can tick that box' if the buyer pays for the footwarmer I will have to put money INTO my paypal account to post ir They should atleast have transparent policy, with some sort of cap. Understandably as new seller I started with lower value items and am building up. I have found the policy: Payment holds occur because: You have been selling on eBay for less than 90 days - Actually about 10 years but previous 3 items have been classified. You have an eBay feedback score fewer than 100 and have not yet established a record of good performance - 100% as buyer and seller. You have received fewer than 20 Detatiled Seller Ratings on eBay in the last 12 months or your eBay seller performance is below standard - Yup You have a high rate of customer disputes or a low eBay feedback percentage - Nil disputes. You have been a PayPal member for less than 6 months and have limited selling activity - over 15 years no disputes. You have a sudden change in selling activities (e.g. suddenly selling expensive items, selling large numbers of items, etc.) - Urm yup You happen to be selling in a high risk category such as tickets, travel, gift vouchers, computers, electronics, mobile phones, etc. - Nope Depending on the circumstances, paypal may set aside payments for a single transaction or for all payments to sellers who meet the criteria above. Problem is they have the monopoly and selling this stuff locally it would only end up sitting about for months. 1 Car cover been on FB for 6 months £15 no interest EBay for 10 day auction sold for but it now at £80 Sad thing is knowing the policy I could now easily rip people.....
  11. They are questionable in the way they do it, I had sold my first batch of 4 items no problems. Monies straight to my account, Positive feed back from 3/4 of buyers no negative they send one message saying we might with hold money. Then BAM the next batch that's it we have your money we keep for 21 days. 1) Order dispatched, we keep your money. 2) Order delivered, we keep your money. 3) Positive feedback received, we keep your money. I have the next lots sorted ready to sell, and am eyeing up the following batch. If people keep buying on my buy it now prices before the auction ends they could end up withholding £500-£1k from me for the next month or so (yes I have allot of stuff to sell). By the time i have dispatched this last batch, I will be running at a loss due to the cost of postage. Until PayPal decide I am worthy to have my own Money! Then there is the postage thing, one item they would only let me charge £10 carriage for It was a large size, fragile and needed a fair amount of wrapping. The postage alone cost me £11 plus a couple of quid for bubble wrap, the running round for a decent size box etc
  12. Is this normal? Finally I am siftng through mums stuff she died 2 years ago. So far I have sold £254.75 pence worth of stuff .. Last batch sold tonight. PayPal with holding £134 pounds presently. Seems that everything I am selling they are holding the money for 20 days. Even when it's been delivered signed for with positive feed back. How much interest is PayPal earning from all this? I can understand as new seller (although buyer for over 15 years 100% feed back) holding till received. For a few items... After that though it's taking the....
  13. Depends how you park, if you use sound to sense the distance from adjacent cars its a good idea
  14. Ignoring safety or not it's your choice... 1) If your just looking for satnav and music and taking the odd call (last number redial) for you. Cheap ass Lidl did me for 2 years no issues, music & Satnav from phone look on EBay you can pick them up for less than £20. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174035840469 https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/173938237553?chn=ps&var=472708816041&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=710-134428-41853-0&mkcid=2&itemid=472708816041_173938237553&targetid=486898997894&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=9045694&campaignid=7643169318&mkgroupid=78014891501&rlsatarget=aud-629407026945:pla-486898997894&abcId=1139576&merchantid=119292132&gclid=Cj0KCQiAtrnuBRDXARIsABiN-7Aoibz9s5ptGZ15jvMwzbvfD104X8XwgxoLh-66Qt5_K187mD-GeFwaAlF0EALw_wcB I have not tried these... Yes music at speed at might be an issue, then I positioned my speakers with TV on quite loud and found a couple of mm makes big difference. Certainly for me phone calls over 50mph where doubtful. 2) If your looking for bike to bike com's go top end I now have pack talk yes its sounds better but at 10x price. Plus I can redirect sat nav OK google navigate... I would start on option 1 and decide what you want and move on from there. PS thinking safety I deleted Shania Twain out of my bike usic it made me go to fast!

  16. I dont get there as much as I used to it depends on my shift pattern, they carry on meeting all year. Plus when I get the chance to be out I am tend to ride further than a handful of miles down the road. If you PM Me your going I will try and get there, although if I recall you know a couple of the regulars. Not even certain I have tagged it this year!
  17. Tuesday morning there is a meting in there full of GOG with mainly classic bikes although all bikes are welcome Park up in the courtyard (tuesdays AM only).
  18. £12 for a three course roast dinner that feeds four. That's why mums go to Iceland ... £5 for an 18 year old girl bouncing on your cock all day. That's why dads go to Thailand!
  19. [mention]Hoggs[/mention] just wondering I know I have not scored for a whilst but I notice I have dropped off the score board? Hoping it's mistake...
