Fodder

I have been pulled over 3 times in total last one being about 4 years ago.

First two were for speeding (I was) I held my hands up and both were decent guys, I treated them with respect and they retreated me with respect.

Third time was a random breath test in the run up to Christmas, again the guys was pleasent and going about his job I just happened to be the next car when an officer became available. I blew clear, he thanked me for being patient etc.

maybe I've been lucky as to getting polite officers but I feel I was wrong in the first two so wasn't going to lie and the third instance I was actually happy to see them doing the stops.

Well done Chippychip!! I can sleep now without Googling thousands of wheel thingy images ultimately ending up on some dodgy site with latex clad dwarves strapped to a ferris wheel.

You found that too?

So, a substitute for wheel nuts that offers absolutely no benefits (as far as I can tell) over a spare set of wheel nuts?

If you read my post correctly you'd notice that I said; "emergency "get you home" kit for cars with alloys wheels who'd lost their wheel nuts.

 

So that would be the benefit.

I think Bobby is saying if you keep one of these for that type of emergency you may as well keep a spare set of nuts in the car.... probably take up less space and safer too.

I think it's something to do with a jig/alignment type of check and the muppets forgot to take it offf.... they are probably searching their workshop high and low for them right now

So am I reading you've bought a GTX 580?

Btw I'm primarily a console gamer, have both Xbox one and PS4. Used to be quite a hardcore PC gamer but like others can't be bothered with chasing figures.

My current system actually has a GTX 280 IIRC bit it runs Starcraft II without issue

Edit: just realised that's you current rig

I think it's quite clever by May, she's outlined her vision of Brexit so either she gets full parliamentary support for it or it's someone else's problem..... more ballsy than Cameron's resignation because he didn't want to deal with it if you ask me.

Is there an online store for post apocalyptic deliveries? If not I reckon that's a great idea, you could set delivery for a while after the event so the initial looting etc has died down and you have your supplies delivered.

 

I reckon that's a great business.....obviously pay now get supplies post aopoclyotic event

 

Lol

 

"Guaranteed!"

Obviously.... or take me to court :lol:

The article I read this morning said that there is no backing out. Oh well, I'm sure we'll find out

To be honest I don't think any of them actually know what is or isn't possible once it was triggered and I expect it will tie up legal boffins for decades if they get involved again.

 

Also I think it highly unlikely any leader would want to back out as it will be seen that referendums are pointless.

 

Back to the debate, I can't honestly see any other outcome than May getting elected, i tend to sit on the fence and vote for the policies which make sense for me at the local level however I think this time I'm going to have to vote for which party I think will get the better deal from Brexit.

Am I missing something, thw vote was to leave, that's what the majority of people voted for, so to change it wouldn't there have to be a referendum to decide if we have another refernedum to votre leave or stay!!? Just asking

I totally agree and I think it would be political suicide not to put it to a vote of the public to see if the majority want to back out.

As A50 has been triggered, there's no going back

That is incorrect Lord Kerr (the author) has come out and said there is nothing binding to back out of it, there may be repercussion's as far as Britains status within the EU

You're sounding like Negan there....

I'm stocking up my cellar and going to reinforce walls and ceiling with steel girders.

What else?

P0rn?

I see Kim has now threatened weekly missile tests and the US are warning not to push Trump (I know I know it could be a wet one).

I still stand by my initial thought of the whole Syria thing being a decoy for the whole Trump and Putin bromance but this is a side plot I think neither anticipated and I think Trumps ego will get in the way here.

So its going to take a proper mentalist to push the button, not sure any civilised leader is that fortunately.

I think Kim boy may if he feels his power is lost but it will most likely be some sort of civil war or against the south... as soon as he lashed out he's gone anyway so why not if he loses power... after all he's dead anyway and would want to go out in a true megalomaniac style

The exact same thing happens every year, and did so when Obama was in charge too. US & SK do war games in the area, NK throw a strop and whinge, war games end and everything calms down again. The only difference this time is that Trump isn't known for being calm under pressure

 

Realistically nowt will happen, no-one will push that far as NK know they'd be wiped out in seconds and they don't really have the ability to hit anything other than SK. Fatboy Kim has the most to lose, and he knows it: He'll only ever be a mouth and def no trousers.

The difference here is the 'games' are over and he's brought a fleet back to 'patrol' the area which was initially steaming in a different direction or at least that's my understanding.

As I said I think it's smoke and mirrors, no one is talking about the Trump administration being in bed withPutin any more

Maybe Trumps way of dealing with Kim boy is to rattle him so much he presses the button to launch one of his fireworks with a nuclear payload only for it to explode on launch and take out half of his top brass

I still honestly think this is all a deflection to help Trump out of a hole, there's alternative facts at play here.

You don't have an external drive?

Yes but system is on internal and that's where any update is applied no matter what your preferred storage is

Looks like my day one Xbox one just died.... e200 00000074 00000000

Looks to be an update that's caused it, just downloading an offline update see if I can bring it back... anyone else had this?

So offline update didn't work, had to reset to factory but I kept games and apps... that worked. Seems it points to internal hard disk errors so I hope it's not on its way out well at least until scorpio is out

... .. where's whackywill when you need him?! :lol

 

I suspect Will can "Talk the Talk"

but can he "Walk the Walk?"

Yeah but his mate would have already done something like this and is called Daryl

They have enough frozen food to last a lifetime...

and mums gone there too

I hear Iceland would be a good place if you can get there. Not on any target list and cold beer. But if Dan's crew needs any help I can sail, scuba dive and prepare (skin) most animals for foods.

 

 

Ps I'm not wearing a pinny for it.

Trouble is Iceland has no way of producing food ... EVERYTHING is imported so not sure it's such a good place unless you have a hankering for rotting shark flesh

Keyser I suspect they now call them 'meats' :surrender:

Dan could do with a technical advisor, where's whackywill when you need him?! :lol

On the serious side doesn't anyone else think this is all a bit OTT and false news.

Trumpton and his cult members getting a lot of stick for colluding with the Russians while campaigning for presidency and when the Trump (or his toupee which I think is really in charge) decides to throw his weight in to Syria and supposedly Russia however warning the latter he's going to throw 59 tomahawks their way (why 59 btw) giving them ample opportunity to move their assets so Trump now looks like he's not so cosy with Putin and he gets some relief at home.

I genuinely believe these events are serving the purpose for which they were intended and that was to take the heat off Trump then in a few months time him and Vlad will be playing golf again... the only thinkbis the mad nutter in North Korea, he's the loose cannon who hasn't read the script but will leave a cliffhanger at the end of the season ready for season 2.....

i think I'd go and grab a paper and head to the "library" for a bit of peace and quiet.

@ Mr aashenfox.... please tell em we are going the way of the blob!! Im trying to get a head start on the rest of humanity
