*tyres Don't get either. You really want the Michelin Pilot Super Sports, or you want something like the Falken FK453 if you really must save the money (although the MPSS will last 2x as long as the Falkens). Seriously, just go for one of those two.

Temporary CCTV aimed at the entry points could work then, at least it would let you know how they're getting in and where to concentrate spending the money. Ultimately though if people do just drive off without checking to see if the gate is shut, then there's nothing you can do about that. Just a shame you have to suffer as the result of someone else's stupidity.

They're right, though. Tbh even if you had CCTV, unless it's 1080p and gives perfectly clear close ups of the their uncovered faces, you're never going to get any prosecution from that. All they need to do is wear a hoody and the CCTV becomes useless. With all respect to Will's company, of course! Ultimately the best thing to do is to stop them getting in there in the first place. How is the main entry way accessed? Are there any other doors? Can you secure your garages (or whatever you keep your bits in) better?

Hell yeah, why would you not?

I'd take anything, I really would. I wouldn't care how simple, or how complex, or how plain, or how evil: I'd be happy just to be involved.

+1 I'd love to do it, I really would.

Bloody hell, that's an incredibly misleading article.

Do it. Last of the great engines.

Have you read it?

Heh, even Jo commented the other day that it's a good picture and she agrees that it was the right size to go for. I felt very smug after she said that. It's not often I'm right. Well, not in her world anyway.

Can I be a bridesmaid?

Yeah, and you know how big the Kinect sensor actually is! Makes the Xbone look well-proportioned...

Done it . Dude, congrats!

The bit I think blew me away the most was when we were walking in the forum, and overheard a guide telling their group that this was the road that Caesar walked down when he returned to Rome, and that the stones we were walking on were the original ones. That absolutely blew me away. Astonishing the history there, it really is.

Just been discussing that with a mate on FB, good timing Bothers me not a jot, I'm on the internet so everything I do is recorded anyway. Unless I want to unplug fully then I assume that everything I say or do is out there anyway, makes life much easier and I can stop my subscription for tinfoil hats

I think Abbey were aiming for 1K out of their drag monster thing. You can go as fast as you want, providing you've got the money. I find big power to be a bit dull, unless there's some interesting engineering involved too.

I agree, Trevi fountain and Spanish Steps have history but otherwise they're just packed full of chavs and not worth spending time to find.

Only because I model myself on you

I'll still be an arsehole on that I'd love to see my own driveatar sometime, everyone complains about it!

Tbh, there's too much stuff in Rome to do in three days: We were there a week and there was plenty we didn't get round to seeing. I would prioritise the important things and then give them the time they deserve, then come back again for the rest.

Normally I'm a weapons grade version

Three days isn't long, but I would do the following: Day 1: Vatican & Vatican museum (possible to do both in one day, but don't hang around!) Day 2: Colosseum & Forum (Colosseum isn't actually that exciting, the Forum is incredible though) Day 3: Trevi Fountain (10 mins literally), Spanish Steps (again 10 mins), Pantheon, and then whatever else you fancy doing. Shops are nice, and I'd just take a break in the Piazza Navona for some grub. Relax, soak it up. If you really want to see more stuff though, go to the Castel Sant Angelo: It's huge! Also, while you're by the Spanish Steps go and have a look inside the Shelley/Keats museum. Sounds silly to do when you're there, but we found it to be one of the most interesting an curious things in the whole city. Probably take about an hour to do it all, but fascinating if you have any interest in English literature at all.

That's an odd size, what are they for?

I blame the previous owner

If it was driving as badly as you say, I'm amazed there was no CEL! Could've been a bit of moisture sat into one of the coilpacks too, which moved or was burnt off once you'd stopped.
