If you want a laugh...
Mon, 14 Sep 2009 16:29:00 +0100
If you want a laugh, pop over to uk.radio.amateur where there's a guy
called Chris Street who apparently has a degree in electronics,
astronomy and chemistry who claims that older engines weren't built
stronger than today and you can't modify a 70 year old engine because
the metal isn't up to coping with the e ...

I had come across another e28 M535 (note, *not* an M5) and it looks
vaguely local. LHD, which would have been a bonus. Quite expensive and
non-original wheels (OK, the originals are TRXs but the ones on the car
are butt ugly). No MOT because the car is abroad and the seller CBA to
bring it back to the UK for a new ...

Just putting the feelers out......

Would anyone of this parish be interested (or know someone who might be) in
a 54-plate (November '04 I think) Audi S4 (normal saloon, not cabrio).
Tiptronic, all the usual trimmings, and a nice cream leather interior (which
was apparently a good ¡ê2k+ worth of option when new). 80k miles, FSH,
Black, overall v ...

Again, just a little above budget:

Bleh. Still can't find anything I like for the money I'd like to pay. At
least nothing that doesn't scream "run away" for one reason or other.

OT: Beatles remastered jobbies.
Sat, 12 Sep 2009 02:52:05 +0100
If any of you are into the Beatles, you have to get these.
Incredibly well done. I didn't think I'd like them with listening to the
Beatles for most of my life but there's a whole new dimension come out
with these that I've never heard before.
It's taken me 25 minutes to type this as I keep stopping to liste ...

While looking for cars in all the wrong places I came across this:

Mind you, the colour combination would have a colour blind guide dog
puke up its guts.

Mountain bike punctures - valve being torn off.
Thu, 10 Sep 2009 10:19:04 +0100
I keep getting punctures on my mountain bike, where the Schraeder valve has
been pulled off the tube. Clearly, the tyre is rotating slightly on the rim
under braking, and pulling the tube along with it, which eventually rips the
valve off.
Tyres are 2.25" Panaracers, running at a fairly low pressure, and are ...
