  1. I used to have a tropical tank with Cichlids (from Lake Malawi) and 2 catfish. Get the tank temp right with a good filter and all was fine. Was relaxing to watch them. Males are also much more colourful than females generally, and they will eat any other fish that can fit in their mouth, including babies.
  2. This was invented to undermine vegans, so whenever they start preaching you can point at the beer in their hand and shut them up. I used to work with a vegan who stated that he was able to drink Grolsch. Depends whether you classify Grolsch as a 'beer'.
  3. I recall parking in the garage and then the rooms were around the outside.
  4. Bikersloft in Belgium is close. You drive in to the open garage and the rooms are behind the doors within the garage. The mini museum is in there too as are the showers in the garage itself. More hostel than hotel. Sounds good, I assume Belgium (along with most other countries) has better tarmac than we do?! As far as I can recall, generally yea they were.

  6. Reminds me - saw this the other day.... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-45844175/shocking-dashcam-videos
  7. Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down the their level and then beat you with experience.
  8. Don't forget to drink water and get some sunlight because you're basically a house plant with more complicated emotions.
  9. Granted. Foxes and badgers begin to use the highways like we do, but first on foot. They then learn how to use cars, motorbikes and vans and develop to the use of HGV's. As their knowledge increases, so does their ability to communicate and they become more powerful. They take over traffic enforcement, dishing out parking fines and tickets, scrutinising all driving abilities. The Foxes then rule the enforcement team while the badgers being to learn about policing, and soon become the highway police force. As they take over the road network together, the foxes and badgers begin to get bored of following the codes and start to enforce their own laws. Soon the likes of the M25 becomes a fairground for them and as the anarchy builds, they discover how they were treated by humans, taking the law in to their own hands, handing out punishments as they see fit. Foxes start to demand the "fur" of humans and badgers blame the humans for the spread of disease and so the down fall of humanity begins. I wish I wasn't at work on this Sunday morning.
  10. I feel stupid but brute force and a penknife solved it. And thank you
  11. I probably should have mentioned that I tried it first though
  12. Im really hoping not all at the same time. I've pushed each clip directly towards the case, and pushed them both up and down. Im losing my marbles I'm sure.
  13. YouTube and Google were useless unfortunately!
  14. Howdy, and no, not that fiddling. The attached pictures show a transformer cover that I'm trying to open (so I can replace the transformer) but I'm struggling with what feels like such a simple task that I'm becoming annoyed. The screw holds a small section that covers the wiring in to the bigger section so I don't need that. Where I'm having trouble is finding the 'knack' as to how I open that larger part, which I'm assuming is done by the four little 'clips. You may observe where I've used a own life and its gadgets to release these clips, but I can't figure it out. What's the secret, please? With thanks
  15. Is this game already over? I quite enjoyed reading what people came up with.
  16. When I went to American at 18, I was offered a drink by a family I was introduced to (hadn't long landed) and I automatically stated a cup of tea would be excellent. I then cancelled this request when the mother put three tea bags in a saucepan of water and placed it on the hob. Op - Chin up, stay strong, all the best!
  17. [mention]elizabethf[/mention] I had this dilemma last year and asked this very forum ... https://www.themotorbikeforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=66193&start=15 It's been a great cover and well stored bike since!!
  18. A few months ago I saw (I think it was an Enfield) bike with a sidecar, and the passenger was an Alsatian who even had his own pair of tinted goggles. He looked pretty damn cool! I'm not sure if I still have the photo!
  19. I don't recall the precise quote now or even who said it (and can't be bothered to look it up) but the gist was "When a few people believe absurdities we call it insanity; when lots of people do we call it religion." I prefer Stephen Fry's quote: "You should read the bible, it's hilarious"
