Gordon Brown - Cometh the hour cometh the man...discuss
carl0s replied to Dragonball's topic in Off Topic
Today's news. The government is forcing banks to stop repossessions and allow 24 months hold on mortgage interest payments. If by the end of the 24 months the home owner can't pay the backlog, the government will pay it. -

I can't believe they're fucking paying two year's worth of interest off stupid people's mortgages. They will give you two years of not paying, and if at the end of the two years, you can't afford to pay the whole lot, they'll pay it for you. Sorry, we'll pay it for you. What about us unstupid fuckers who didn't get a mortgage because we knew they were too expensive, but saved and saved to /one day/ get a mortgage ? Where's our little bonus? House prices going through the floor would be our bonus but they're trying to prevent that righting of wrong. -

You haven't made much of a point about the gearbox. This car has a Getrag 6spd doesn't it?

Honestly? Is that how it is around Leeds at the mo? There's nothing but rain here. No snow or frost or anything, just loads of rain. I was really looking forward to thick snow too At least the missus won't be writing-off my Supra just yet. -

Less public spending, less taxes. Simple. Then we'll all be happy, and we'll all earn enough, and we'll all spend. -
I think the main thing that you're not picking up on here is that it scratches easily. Have you not seen racing cars when they have a hole cut out the side window and a flap to open, or like a sliding flap thing? They never look shiny. That's why it's generally used for racing cars where function matters over form. Hope I'm not off the mark there and putting people off unnecessarily. I googled a bit and found this on tinting: LEXAN cannot be tinted since LEXAN continues to gas out and any film-based tinting would sooner or later cause those cheesy looking bubbles

Arrange By Penis has become quite a catchphrase. Someone has written an arrangebypenis.exe that'll do it for you http://arrangebypenis.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&p=28

I told you the squid would be there at the end!

I liked the bit where he added the guy's Exchange mailbox and deleted the message from his Sent Items

LOL, that's awesome

Closed at 64p today, that a 58% gain if you bought at 41p two week ago ! I have a feeling they'll be up and down just the same in the immediate future though, although it'd be nice if they grew steadily.
-
Hmm. I must have missed that. Bugger. I'll read the fine print.
-
Yeah I have 761 shares at 79.9p each They're 62.5 now though. I'm only 18% down
-
61p now!

Well, mine is a bit more like just "that annoying really quiet noise in my head whenever everything goes quiet", but it sort of grows sometimes and makes me feel like I'm going on one. Sometimes it comes on louder but that usually fades out just as quick as it appeared. In my case it's caused by stress apparently rather than a physical ear problem. It's amazing to think I am stressed, sitting here browsing youtube and smoking

Could be knackered ball joint. When the balljoint went on my old blue car, it squealed horribly. I thought it was power steering problems but turned out to be totally knackered balljoint. When the car was in the air, mechanic got a crowbar under the wheel and it lifted about an inch!

Should be lower weight..

Precisely, but I think the point is that they've decided that grown-ups can be pratts too.

Well, I am all for sorting out gangs of yoofs, but having heard the new audible-to-all noise, and knowing what tinnitus can be like, I find it a touch worrying.
-
They're talking about a new version of this noise thing, that emits a slightly lower pitch noise so that everyone can hear it. They played it on the radio briefly and it sounds exactly like tinnitus. It's the thing that your local co-op store puts outside to stop yoofs hanging around. I think it's pretty well known that tinnitus can send some people into an anxious state of panic. That can't be good then, can it?

Restaurants are dear but pizza is cheap and you've never seen pizza like it. A slice is equivalent to a large pizza over here, and a full pizza is just huge. You can find cheap coffee/cake cafes that are used by the locals but don't speak any English. That tip ontop of service charge thing pissed me off, and the food didn't seem worth anything like the money paid for it, so we stuck mostly to pizza after that. We didn't use any water taxis either, just vaporetto all the time with those passes.

Anyone work for Barclays, or any UK domestic bank?
carl0s replied to Chris Wilson's topic in Off Topic
As far as I know, all the RBS branches have direct numbers. I regularly ring both Hale & Altrincham and I think I've phoned Didsbury a few times too. Sounds like you need to ditch Barclays! -
I like the dyno printout

No traction control on NA cars either, but then it could be a TT..
