bonio

I put myself down as a maybe. I'm breathing a lot more easily today, which is a really nice feeling. The cough is slightly better. Still 100% washed out though.

Does anyone know plans exist for raising taxes as we move from fossil fuels to electric? This is what I mean: fuel duty is scheduled to bring in £28.4bn this year - that's around 20% of the cost of running the NHS. Where's that money going to come from as people buy less fuel? Are there any new taxes are in the pipeline?

Been running a temperature with a cough and a sore throat for a couple of days now. Feeling pretty rough. Don't know what it is, but it sure ain't a cold.

Here are the 16 worst-affected countries ranked by infection rate per head of population. The UK comes in at number 26 today, with 11 cases per million. But the number of cases are increasing here at the same rate as they are in France or Germany - we're only lagging behind them by a couple of days I reckon. https://i.imgur.com/h6xCHQh.png' alt='IMGUR>'>

This sounds quite likely. The feeling is very like an underinflated tyre, with the difference that at slow speeds I can feel it it pulsing slightly.

Yesterday. On one of Her Majesty's Highways. It wasn't that broad (the pothole, not Her Majesty), but it was about three miles deep and the front wheel went crunch. Since then the bike is wobbly and feels light at the front, whereas before it would track smoothly. I'm going to have to get it fixed. I've reported the pothole to the Highways Agency, and asked for claim forms, but I am not holding out much hope that they'll cough up. But what now? I'm not even sure what's wrong, although I'd guess the front wheel's buckled out of shape. Do I take it to a local garage to test it out? Do I file an insurance claim and hand my precious bike over to them? I'm a bit flummoxed.

Wet kit.

My bad for relying on memory and not rushing to google. 5ft is 5ft.... we got another contender for next years twat of the year extreme Too right. It's ok for [mention]Gerontious[/mention], but me without 5ft - I'd hardly exist.

Lining out of the trousers first. You don't want to overcook yourself.

Nice one beefy. Really pleased for you

I've used them. Never had to claim, but always found that they were helpful when I had to call.

Thanks for the tip. Taking it for its maiden voyage tomorrow.

This is what nearly everyone says. The bigger bike is really a lot easier.

Don't worry too much... you'll be fine on the bike they give you, and they'll make sure you're ok with it.

Thanks all.

Cheers snod. Yup 21 again. This year, it's in base 29.

Sure did If I'd had my way I'd have given you the day off too.

Thanks! Couldn't find it myself

Nice review. Just bought myself, a Turtle 1 black from Sportsbikeshop. Arrives Monday. First to crash gets to write the review

Never ridden one. The reviews were never that great. Anyone here had a go?

Seems to me that it's a survey run by an estate agent in order to stoke some interest in the property market. The timing is perfect - this is when a lot of people make the decision whether they're going to see their house this year. They tart the place up in March and then put it on the market the week before Easter. My take is that it's just a marketing exercise - it's not really about where the best place to live is. I haven't been able to see anywhere where they publish the questions, nor a description of how they analysed the data. A serious survey would do both.

If you were interested, you could try it out before you go ahead by taping a 20mm block of wood onto the stand. It wouldn't be exactly the same, but it would give you a pretty good idea of what the bike would like without changing the stand.

Doh. Silly mistake. You're not Marc

Sooo.... your brother's name is Dominik?
