Tiggie

He was 2 or 3 places behind the fastest time on a mountain bike. Pretty incredible for his 1st run on that course

Holy shit can this guy ride

Oy! I'm not that old Welcome to the forum

Welcome to the forum. You might want to add some more information like location and price

I would absolutely be looking at getting a bank loan or similar ( even credit card with low rate) and using that to pay it off early if at all possible. If you have just got the bike I'd even consider returning it if the dealer has a return policy and getting a better deal elsewhere.

Heard a Tesla joke the other day that made me laugh " If your Tesla gets stolen does it now have to be called an Edison? "

Where's my puppy gone?

Area definitely plays a big part. As someone who has to pay the "Bradford" tax due to my postcode I know only too well I once put down my mother-in-laws address (York) instead of my own on an online quote just to see what would come up and got almost £200 cheaper for the year Can't say I wasn't tempted

This happened to me and my premiums went right up the following year. When I rang insurance to find out it turns out just reporting it is enough to be classed as a claim on their system whether or not they have to pay anything out To them it doesn't matter that they haven't paid out, what does matter is that you have reported a vehicle as stolen so are considered more of a risk.

Trolley shelters in supermarkets too

Car door locks were frozen this morning. I thought at first it was just usual door seals frozen to frame but when pressing unlock on remote I could hear the boot unlocking but not the doors Gave a few people on the street a good laugh watching me crawl inside through the boot at least

Welcome to the forum @Simon Davey Are you after my job?

Welcome

You just reminded me to switch off and drain my outside tap! cheers

I try to keep a few notes in my wallet. Usually by time I need to use some cash I find my Wife has got there first and I need to take a trip to the atm

I just saw this thread and thought I'd overslept Happy New Year

@Fozzie You reminded me of a guy I briefly worked with when I was a teenager. I worked for an ICT company supplying networks and support to schools( I'm old so we are talking Windows NT, 98se, 2000) My job was office based. Building the machines and repairing any that the engineers couldn't do on site. A new engineer was hired, ex IBM guy so everyone was expecting big things when he came in. Turned out the annoying little 19 year old prick who spent most of his time in the office downloading music from winmx and had no formal qualifications.......in other words me ..... knew a shit load more than he did It came to light that all he used to do at IBM was go on site, load a norton ghost recovery image and say " there you go " and if that didn't work he took machine back to office to let someone else fix it

My best had to be the 1kg of mixed flavours of Biltong my Wife got me Wouldn't say I had anything I'd think was bad. Probably too many boxes of biscuits

I like every second Friday ( like tonight) as its my night off
