  1. I've taken the quiz and after this post, I'll stop responding! Results please.
  2. None of their stores are close enough to make it worthwhile.
  3. Yes - You get the 'bonus' for completing ALL groups of 10 tags.
  4. What is the picture of Ricky? I know it is Mallory but without your Number it could have been last year! If you had the name of the cafe in your picture, that would be good but..... Obviously, it was not a 'tag' photgraph so........... I'll leave it for Stu to arbitrate.
  5. Midland Spinner Inn Clevedon Pier Burnham-on-Sea Pier Gough's Cave Eva's Cafe Royal Greenjackets Museum Departure Lounge Cafe Group 4 Completed.
  6. About 10 minutes then (1 1/2 pints).
  7. It could just be that the 'Section Committee' just do not want to be tarred with any kind of 'favouritism' / 'racism' brush and by just'drawing straws', they can all plead 'not guilty' as it is purely random. I am not saying that this is fair - IMO, it should be family based (already have a child at the school = priority list) and then 'random' selection. I would write a letter to my MP (copied to the local Newspaper) if you do not get a satisfactory expanation to your current predicament. Good luck. '
  8. Got the fancy dress booked - Don't need an Axe for this one! Also convinced t'missus to dress up as well (and Dylan!). I'm tempted to join in on the 'squalling' (singing?) this year but, I'll need to be 'well into my cups' in order to perform. Is anyone sorting out a quiz? If not, I can supply one (pre-printed sheets to fill in)??????? Not long to go now.
  9. K-Seal will fix small leaks (as in your case (if it is not a weak cap)). Nearest Honda M/Cycle dealer should have the correct 'green' fluid (although it will be a couple of bob dearer I expect). If you are going to 'service' your rad. then be sure to flush through with plenty of water (I use a hose on low flow) - Rad Flush is not needed. To re-fill, the amount needed should be in your bike manual / if not, google the forum for your bike and search on the question. Once done, add K-seal to the recommended amount and you should be OK for quite a while. NB. I would get a new cap anyway.
  10. Show Me The Way - Peter Frampton
  11. Walk Softly on this Heart of Mine - Ricky Skaggs
  12. Come Sail Away - Styx
  13. I remember using 'chain guard' back in the old days ( ). You had to remove the chain, heat the grease until molten, dip the chain and then hang up while it cools before putting back on the bike. I now use a Scotoilier - end of hassle.
  14. The chemical will have a COSH sheet with it which will advise as to how to neutralise it / clean it off. Be careful of how you dispose of the waste - It must not go in household rubbish or landfill.
  15. Why not include a few 'Challenge 100' tags?
  16. Dog on a Leash - Adelitas Way
  17. Get a large Electrolitic Capacitor and charge it up. leave it in you pocket and wait for the yell!
  18. And... You cannot role it through the front door to keep it out of the rain!
  19. When Doves Cry - Prince
  20. Well done Did you remeber to remove all the surplus fluids (especially from any paintwork)?
  21. Wine and Women - Bee Gees
  22. Grumpy Old Git

    Blown bulb

    Plus any intermittent/loose connection.
  23. Lady Samantha - Elton John
  24. If the headlight bulb 'blows' when you put the bike in gear, then it MUST be due to a wiring fault in the neutral switch circuit - I would expect there is a short (in either a connector or the loom) which takes the two circuits (headlight and neutral) together. Measure the resistance from the headlight (any of the feed/return pins for dipped beam) and earth (ignition off) and see if it changes when you put the bike in gear (ignition off). repeat with ignition on, this time measuring the voltage (engine NOT running). This may help the diagnosis of the problem.
