  1. I know you meant it in jest but I was a little perturbed the other day to hear that local to me a Lexmoto 125 had been stolen from someone's garden. Cutting 3 chains and snapping the disk lock off to get it Makes me worry if they will go to that much trouble over a cheap 125 what do you need to protect an RSV or a monster?
  2. bet they'll end up been loads of them on the road in that colour as dealers will do a 2 grand discount on it to get rid
  3. Fancied something different so thought I'd give this a try. Very drinkable and comes with its own little tin cup to drink out of
  4. Don't ring insurance up. Premium will definitely go up. I had to claim mine as stolen once. Luckily I actually found it about an hour later hidden in the local rough estate. Got it home, rang insurance to cancel claim. When it came time to renew I found that despite them not having to pay out anything it was still classed as a claim and I lost my no claims as well as a premium hike
  5. @Steve_M could of just been the shop I went into. I remember not being impressed The latest craze which thankfully we don't do is an entire battered chip buttie with curry sauce
  6. That sounds exactly what my boss went through when he had the jab. When he woke up in the morning though he felt perfectly fine!
  7. I looked but couldn't see them, I did see an Italian Mafia type guy who was a dead ringer for David Jason though
  8. I've got a Leather man surge. Absolutely fantastic tool, lost count of how many times it's come in useful. Its feels really well made with some serious heft to it. Only bad thing is hiding how much it cost from the Wife
  9. What a load of bollocks!! Yes you certainly can get your full bike license. You'll just be limited what bikes you can get on!! And by that i'm not talking power wise or any other legality just which you can get your leg over Plenty of bikes can be lowered as well so thats not too much of an issue either
  10. Bugger that!! Need more than one day off between night shifts as you spend the first day after a shift either as a zombie trying to keep awake or falling asleep and feeling pissed off for wasting your time off
  11. Before lockdown my shifts were 4 out of 7 days. 12 hour shifts. Now i'm doing 6 day weeks but shifts are a mix of 6 and 12 hours. I don't like it and want my 3 days a week back!
  12. Had a phone call once from a coworker on my night off. Boss was away on holiday. "Do you know anything about plumbing?, A pipe has burst in the prep room." I said I'd come straight down. When I got there he hadn't even turned the water off Thankfully the prep room is a cellar with a drain in the middle of the floor so we didn't have a flood. It was a hot water pipe that burst though so it had become a steam room by time I got there Anyway what makes this kind of relevant to the thread is that he had tried to fix the leak...........by using sellotape
  13. Think they deserve a knob of the day mention! My sister-in-law recently got a ban as I was winding her up and she said "I can't wait until I can see you so I can punch you on the nose"
  14. I don't like Fridays anymore! They have become so busy we have had to have a rule of "you cannot hold a grudge against another staff member for anything they say or call you" Calling your boss a muppet for forgetting to cook the chicken nuggets? acceptable, its Friday Being told I won't get paid this week as I can't keep up with amount of chips needed? Also acceptable, its Friday

    Usually you can find paraffin for sale in petrol stations. They keep it outside with the calor gas bottles, firewood etc

    Welcome Bobby

    Welcome to the forum
  17. I used to use my phone but I didn't have a mount so it would go in my jacket pocket and I would follow the the spoken directions via earphone A lot of swearing done when I would miss a turnoff, and it would happen a lot Don't forget everyone that @Stu still has a sat nav available to buy, I believe it even spell checks your entered destinations
  18. Oh how I miss full strength irn bru and not this aspartame flavoured shite we now get. When I was on holiday a couple of years ago I found a shop that sold the regular stuff, I was a very happy boy that day
  19. @Ian Frog The whole thing has been pretty much a pain in the arse so I might as well carry on in that direction Its home now with the battery out and charging in the shed
  20. I'm nob of the day twofold Battery has died on my car while picking daughter up from school. Had to walk her home, not far so no issue but its my own stupid fault. The majority of my driving is 5/10 minute journeys so its a miracle it hasn't happened before. I know this and keep meaning to plug it into my charger on a night once a month or so but have been too lazy and keep forgetting And the second reason is when looking for my jump leads I remembered I left them in my old car which I gave to my Brother-In-Law Currently waiting for him to finish his tea so he can drive down and give me a jump start Edit: tea being his dinner for all you southerners
  21. Far too young. I loved the episode where she beat (I think) Jeremy's lap time in whatever sports car he had by using a van
  22. @Mississippi Bullfrog The original 'slow blow" fuse
  23. It never used to register with me how young some people were when they died. I've been watching a Bill Hicks documentary, I've been a fan of his since my teens but its only just really sunk in that he was only 32 when he died. Scarily young but probably didn't seem that way when I was 18 and discovered him. When I think back on everything I've done since I was 32 that I would of missed it really makes me think
  24. When my Rear spring went funnily enough it was approx 1 month after the council had installed speed bumps all along a big stretch of road I use on daily commute
