Neighbour is hardly likely to admit to any of that, even if true! I think you're missing the obvious aspect here. You simply need to be pushing the train company as hard as possible to give you back your laptop in the state you left it with them (albeit accidentally). Anything else is just guff and adds little to your problem with them.

I'm not convinced I'd bother telling them, tbh. You have your offer, you know the risk if the job goes belly-up, it's pretty much on your shoulders right now.

Nope Each UN member country pays in a quota, not the EU.

The IMF is run from Washington, not Brussels. It's part of the UN.

My original advice still stands. Anything they do for you, they do because of the decent PR not because they have a legal responsibility.

Just came to say the same thing. Deathly slow.

The only negative I can think of is possible insurance issues, as some insurers can still be a bit funny about remaps and extra power. That said, they're normally the mainstream ones and since you've already got a bunch of mods on there it's unlikely to apply to you. I say go for it!

Given that at the time I posted the only place it had been shown was the UK, then in real terms it couldn't have been any more accurate! What are the viewing figures then for the openers of seasons 22 and 23 then worldwide, exactly? I've not seen them myself yet.

I've just watched it. Really enjoyed it, and now I kinda see what they're trying to do with the show. You have the proper Top Gear that carries on where the old one left off: There's never going to be anything special there, nor any real meat for the proper petrolheads. That's where Extra Gear comes in IMHO. They can be more relaxed, less arty, more geeky, and slightly less concerned about making the big bucks. Rory is a natural in front of the camera, I'd expect to see him do some stuff for the proper show really soon, he's excellent. Harris is also brilliant as he's proved on his own stuff, here however he came across as a bit of an idiot and I can see people not really taking to him if they continue to edit him like that. However, the EG stuff itself was interesting, funny, clever and intelligently shot, proving they've got a very good team behind the scenes. This is kinda what I always hoped TG would be, both entertaining and geeky. They've had to split it into two shows to do it, but I can now see exactly how they're trying to move the show forward. I'd say EG is as much a must-see as TG itself is.

Depends on the knob, but most sit lower.

Budget?

The presenters were announced months ago, did you not see that bit? It was always going to be CE & MLB as the main people, then bits and pieces from the other three.

Still higher than the opening show of last series though.

That's what he does though, he's a lively shouty person on TV. Also, he was nervous as f*ck which didn't help I suspect. In all seriousness, it was okay. I'll watch it again as there's hints of evidence it's not just going to be the same old guff, but at the same time the Star thing in the Mini definitely didn't work at all. MLB is genius though, he really is going to make or break it I think. Thank god the news bit has gone, that was always pointless, and hopefully Harris will be in it more than just on BBC3 behind the scenes. Putting aside my equal hate for old TG and my fangirlness for Evans, I reckon it's a solid 7/10. Could be better, but a promising start.

Hey, if it's a good one...

Suspension travel on that Nomad is insane. Beautiful bit of engineering.

Because you need to rig in greater quantities to defeat a genuine vote, which is harder to achieve. But yes, I agree that we as a nation are by far one of the 'cleanest' countries in the world for this stuff.

Maser is a 3200, not 3500. A good choice, certainly charismatic if a trifle brave to run at that price point.

See, that works both ways though, you can't claim to love old TG and not like this

It's ace! Okay, the Stars bit isn't great but it never has been, really enjoying the rest of it so far. MLB is brilliant as the other guy, Evans you'll love or hate but I think he's great. Genuine lols at not mentioning catering and claiming custody of the Stig

I am!

Ah, so all in your head then, gotcha. The only way to prevent vote rigging is to actually vote yourself.

645/650 cab? Cheap as chips, V8 too. E46 M3 is a nice place to be, even though you don't like the 3 series. I don't fully trust anyone who doesn't like convertibles. They add so much to the driving experience in any weather, not just when it's sunny.

Man up, walk away, be with someone who won't irritate you every five minutes.

You won't be getting any discount on a 718 right now. They've no need, it's a brand new car. You can get good discounts from the premium brands though, just not this early on in the life of a model.
