Me me me me me !!!

That's actually a surprisingly simple but great idea!

Oooh now that's lovely! For the moment I've wedged some wood around the outside of the new smaller battery but I need to find some sort of strapping which may be better. It's just such an awkward bitch of place to work on!

Don't suppose you have any pics Pete?

Hi guys Just changed my battery (it's rather tight isn't it?!). However the new battery is smaller and so isn't that secure. Are there any decent strapping or securing methods that you guys have used?

He's taking it pretty well...

The thing is, amongst close friends and in private you can be as un PC as you want, but at work, and in public environments you should be a bit more mindful of your behaviour, regardless of what your moral compass says. Heck the best comedians skirt the line of decency all the time. That said, I don't believe any of his behaviour has been purposefully done to hurt or offend people - it is a generational thing, some people just don't realise what they do/say is necessarily bad/wrong. I know I've made faux pas in the past but my intention was never to go out to upset people. Okay, ignorance is no alibi, but surely the BBC have editors that allow them to tweak was is shown, so surely they should be held accountable too?

Wind up aside, you can't hit people at work, or outside of work because of a disagreement. JC normally rips people apart with words, and the fact that Hammond and May are taking the mick online would leave me to suggest that it isn't as serious as it is. IF he had punched someone that surely would turn to be a criminal investigation and surely they wouldn't be trivialising it on twitter? I'm not saying we should go back to the "good/bad" old days where 2 people would have a punch up, then go for a pint afterwards - we've evolved (I hope) to be a bit less Neanderthal. People like Clarkson are divisive people, some people find him great, some people typecast those that like him as "meatheads" or thickos. Eitherway not everyone is going to agree with his character or behaviour, and to judge people on what they enjoy is no different to some of the contentious stuff that JC says. To be completely dispassionate about it we have to wait and see what the #fracas is all about and then make up our minds based on the evidence. I for one am a fan of JC - I do find him a buffoon and an irascible character but also highly amusing, but if he has really misbehaved beyond what we feel is acceptable then of course he should be held accountable. The problem is what doesn't offend some people, will deeply cut others - it is just the way of the world. What I find irritating is the fact they keep bringing up the Argentina "incident" and the fact he said the Eenie Meeni Minie Moe rhyme. A lot of us who are older will probably have learned that rhyme without even realising what we were saying. It was his generation, not saying it is right to say that, but he stopped himself from saying it, and he clearly didn't mean anything viscous by it.

I fear you're laughing at me rather than with me

I am waiting to hear the full story before I start casting blame. Despite being an ex rugby player I don't particularly enjoy violence and find unprovoked acts of violence abhorrent. That said I have had a scuffle or two in my life and would again if the situation led me that way but I wouldn't relish it. Sometimes things happen instinctively. They may not be the right thing to do but we are but human. I'm just disappointed that they will pull the series - we've already paid for the filming of it therefore I want to see it. I've paid for a service. If I don't get to see it I will be withdrawing my funding.

You can almost gauge people's votes on whether they are Clarkson fans or not (I.e. lefties or righties)!

What? That makes no sense. Assuming he punched someone, and assuming he gets fired, do you not think that would be the correct thing? That's what would happen in any other company anywhere in the world. Well, apart from WWE I guess. I edited my post

That would be quite funny to see - I'd actually be quite happy to stop paying my TV licence as a result of it too (which I only recently started paying for again as I started to watch live tv again).

Ahhh the BBC and their overly bureaucratic political correctness moral compass. I know it's a paid for service, but they really go OTT with their touchy feely stuff. That said, rumours are he punched a female producer - if that's the case, that's not on. However, rumours are rumours. If he has been suspended for being a prat then fair play - if it's just more overly tight PCness then I wouldn't be surprised. I guess JC has had one too many blunders recently... Shame, but if he does get axed from the BBC, people will follow - I will be one of them. Yes he's a bit of a blundering buffoon but that's why I like him.

Not an apple fan, but I'm also not particularly interested in smart watches. I'm even less interested at those prices! That's a lot of goodies for the Zed

I cannot work out if these are sarcastic posts or whether there is genuinely an item out there called the 'eyeball', I thought I'd share this moment of weakness with everyone rather than consulting Google. Mk1 eyeball is a often used army/forces/engineering term for - "using your own eyes rather than relying on instruments"

The GPS ones are updated via a database so you'll either need to manually update it, or if you have a connected one it will auto update. You will generally have to pay for a yearly subscription to update the GPS locations of the cameras. Laser detectors are pretty pointless as by the time it has detected a laser all it will do is confirm you have been clocked at the speed that you are doing. Laser jammers are illegal but I know some people do use them. I have an old Origin B2 - I find it useful as a reminder of the speed limit, and means I can concentrate on the road rather than my speed - if I could have a HUD that would be just a good though.

Seconded. It is far, but well worth it.

I agree

It is just an HDR shot. Here is a pre processed shot:

No no, 2 buckets!! Don't worry!

Thanks Ed from Divine Detail gave her a good once over back in November got rid of all the swirls. I wish I had access to better cleaning equipment - but still, you make do!

Gave a bit of a clean - I haven't got access to a hose or anything so I rely on going up a flight of steps to fill the bucket up!: For a 9 year old car she comes up nicely:

Sounds like a nightmare Rabbit I still go to the gym (couldn't live without it!) and play computer games on occasion, and tinker on the Zed, however we still do our share of the housework, I cook, and hoover/dust, take the bins out, my wife washes and cleans the kitchen for example. We split things and share responsibilities - I look after the finances, and she's good at chasing up suppliers and organising events/trips etc.. teamwork. Sounds like you're really unhappy How long have you been married?
