  1. Is this the eBay'd Portsmouth police recovery one from a couple of weeks back?
  2. I did ice karting at an ice rink somewhere in Hampshire a few years back. Problem was the circuit was laid out as a standard oval, so there was nowhere on the track where it was actually beneficial to put the kart sideways. Great fun if you're just arsing about, but if you were actually racing, it was pretty much like regular karting only a lot slower. Wouldn't bother doing it again unless it was on a twisty track.
  3. Ack - it's like The Krypton Factor all over again. It really used to annoy me that the old blokes and the women got a headstart in the assault course bit - would they give me a headstart in the general knowledge bit for being thick ????
  4. I thought I'd try breeding my own back-up to tip the gender balance in our house, but it seems my first attempt has backfired - I've been waiting for 6 months now, and he doesn't even USE the toilet, let alone argue about it - just sits there and sh*ts his pants.
  5. Maybe they should have biked, walked or taken the bus like we had to when we were nippers ?!? To be honest, tho', the basic idea of taxation per mile isn't a bad one as long as the tax goes back into maintaining the roads - that way the people who use the roads pay for the roads. I really don't like the compulsory tracker idea tho' - that's all a bit 1984. Just using odometer readings should suffice. With my Supra-owning hat on, it's certainly better than more petrol tax, heh?

    Yawns...

    Maybe what you need is some sort of spool device (or maybe two?) that uses the exhaust gasses to force the air into the brain at pressure. Do you have a free-flow exhaust? No cats up there, are there?
  7. Never got the whole toilet seat thing. Leave it down if you want, just don't complain when I p*ss all over it, okay?

    hehe - I wondered if anyone would go for it - I kind of made it up on the spot!

    Yawning is contagious because it's all to do with evening inner ear pressures. When your ear pressures become uneven, your balance mechanism triggers a yawn action, which releases the air pressures within your inner ears and causes them to equalise. The external effect of this is to change the air pressure around you - this change in air pressure destabilises the inner ear pressures of those around you, triggering a similar reaction. Does that sound convincing?

    Mark @ Pheonix.

    Well I'm down in the far reaches of Surrey and mine goes nowhere else but up to Phoenix for any work. Can't express how much it's worth the journey every time.
  11. Martin Johnson was a pretty decent american football player back in the late 80's. Guess he couldn't hack the pace and ended up playing rugby instead, tho'
  12. LOL - I was waiting for you to bite, mate. Watching you lardy-boys in the trenches hug and cuddle made me laugh too much to run. That's my excuse anyhow!
  13. Oh yes - come to Kenya - he'll kick your ass! http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/kenya/
  14. Okay - so give me a guard in the bubble AND a FB on inside protection, I'm still all over the backfield. ooops - maybe gave myself away there!
  15. hehe - that's the key, you see - cuddly appearance, nice-guy attitude gives me the element of surprise - I'll take down one of them "quarterbacks" one-handed, mate!
  16. Goes on raw and cooks in the oven.
  17. yay! Fiorentina! Spinach & egg, with a pinch of nutmeg.. Traditional thin and crispy base.
  18. Well - I think you'll find that the big guys at the front, ARE actually the "gey" ones - they just stand up and play patta-cake while the REAL players behind them play the real game and take the big shots at eachother But hey - American Footballers in general - all that whooping and "butt-slapping". Gotta be a bit dubious, heh?
  19. I got mine fitted by Dragon - http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/member.php?u=2878. Very happy with the install and a top bloke all round.
  20. I shall be looking to trade the Supra in and join the dark side this year if the right Aristo turns up for me.
  21. Twice a day. Think I'm the only one loving the greasy weather - twice the adrenalin fun at half the speed!

    R.I.P supe

    Charging higher premiums for mods and actually covering mods in the insurance are separate things. Premiums are largely calculated from the statistical likelihood of you having an accident or your car blowing up or getting stolen. All the questions they ask about the type of car, mods, parking location, milage, etc. are all just to help calculate the odds of you having an accident. The actual value of the car and the mods has little bearing on your premium. I think you'll find that modified cars are statistically more likely to end up incurring insurance claims - and it doesn't matter whether the insurance company pays out to cover the mods or not, they'll still be out of pocket, so they'll still look to charge you more on your premiums. Sorry to hear about the car bridlea - I don't think Elephant cover mods OR do agreed value? In which case you can probably expect a big argument.

    Yo Yo Yo

    I really wouldn't normally do this, but: Try looking up the spelling for "hypocrisy" - and while you're there, the definition of "sarcasm" is probably worth checking out too. Nice car, tho'
