  1. If you haven't got accommodation booked yet you will struggle, if you do post an ad on www.manx.net in the classifieds, someone will probably stump up a home stay for you, hope this helps.
  2. Cheers everyone, hope you all have a good one
  3. Easily bought for cooking purposes. https://www.discountcream.co.uk/96-pro-whip-cream-chargers-269-p.asp 96-pro-whip-cream-chargers-[2]-269-p.jpg It seems to be flouting the law https://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/may/29/laughing-gas-government-legal-highs-nitrous-oxide They've obviously found a way around it

  5. Neither, going to go out on my bike and try to find somewhere oblivious to both....
  6. Mate sent me this advice: TRAVEL ADVICE FOR THOSE IN THE SOUTH OF THE UK: Do not travel unless absolutely necessary, stay at home, wrap up and keep warm. TRAVEL ADVICE FOR THOSE LIVING IN THE NORTH OF THE UK: Wear a thicker coat LOFL
  7. Try them both, you get a one month free subscription and cancelling the subscription is easy, we use Netflix, pretty satisfied with what it has and it suits our purposes, we intend to cancel Sky, getting fed up with the same stuff being regurgitated over and over again and we find that what we do watch is available on free-view anyway
  8. Nitrous Oxide is a POM (Prescription only medicine) so not sure where they're getting this from, I have heard that ambulances in some parts of the country are having the Entonox cylinders nicked from their vehicles.
  9. People just don't know how to drive in snow, bit of white stuff and everything grinds to a halt, was in Finland a few years ago, heavy snow falls were just another day at the office for them.
  10. From the posh cars I've ever seen in snow, you cruising about is not typical at all! I Adore seeing Chelsea tractors spinning their wheels and sliding sideways down hills Fair play not taking the bike out in that snow manx, look after yourself. Thanks, off to the Lake District on tonights boat, taking the wifes car though, would dearly love to go on the bike but I just know I'd end up getting stuck or worse .....
  11. That warm smog cloud hides all those nob rots roaming the streets on scooters

    Cold day

    [attachment=0]22.jpg[/attachment] Bottled out and left the bike at home today
  13. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/4985252/moped-gang-jailed-london-raids-shops/ They shouldn't be jailed they should be birched and deported
  14. I seen a gang of youths like this in Leicester a while ago, strutted across the road banging on the bonnet of a car stopped in traffic, in gangs they're big men, on their own they're nothing, timid little cowards that skulk around in dark places that the rats that they are, I just wish that the Police had the power to exterminate them like you would normally do with vermin.
  15. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/boat-crash-victim-victoria-milligan-has-prosthetic-legs-stolen-by-moped-gang/ar-BBFWCef?li=BBoPWjQ&ocid=mailsignout Is there no level that these little Scum bags won't stoop to!
  16. You'll probably find its something called a robocall, machine sends out unsolicited calls, usually sales and market research, you can't ring them back because the number is randomly generated and changes, this is why its hard to block them, I had a similar problem a while ago and contacted my phone provider about it, there wasn't much they could do, the only advice I was given was not to answer the call, apparently these types of calls can also be scams.
  17. UPDATE: Have used it in the rain now and am happy to say that it does exactly what its designed to do, keeps the rear shock and underside of the bike a whole lot cleaner, going to get the infill panel now to try and keep my other half a bit drier when she's on the back
  18. It seems to be getting a lot of interest so far but I think it will be more of a clubmans introduction to road racing( hope I'm wrong in one respect but right in another) it won't be as exciting as the tt,nw, fom or Scarborough but road racing is road racing and it will get my backing, think its official name is the welsh road races and by the videos of the track it's a great start for the new comers to learn their trade but not sure it will attract the big names..again hope I'm wrong but hopefully see ya all there Hopefully it'll be a good place for newcomers to get the points and experience they need to compete in some of the bigger races, I agree, road racing is road racing and that has to be a good thing.
  19. Sounds good, going to try and find out a bit more about facilities, location, pubs etc, see if I can talk a few of my mates into going over for a weekend ....... next summer should be cracking, IOM TT, NW200, FOM and now the Welsh TT,
  20. [attachment=0]DSCN2932.jpg[/attachment] Fitted a Pyramid plastics Carbon Fibre hugger to my bike today, should have taken about twenty minutes but took me an hour and a half! Fitting it in twenty minutes is possible if you have hands the size of a five year old! On now though and looks good, very light as you'd expect, all the pre drilled holes were in exactly the right place, very happy with it and would recommend to anyone else wanting one, haven't tried it in the rain yet but I'm hoping it goes at least some way to keeping the underside rear and shock absorber clean.
  21. Really sad, 1st rate guitarist, no age to die in the big scheme of things, dementia is hitting people younger and younger all the time.
  22. I was out yesterday myself at a local parade, as an ex soldier I always pay tribute to those serving, retired and passed, and remember them with pride and honour, very emotional day for all serving and ex serving service personnel [attachment=0]iu.jpg[/attachment]
  23. Ha, ha, these are the Manx roads
  24. [attachment=0]DSC_0002.jpg[/attachment] This was the same car after I did some mod's
  25. [attachment=0]DSC_0034.jpg[/attachment] This is the Landy I used to have, got rid a couple of years ago, great car though, had some fun off roading on the green lanes with it
