    For a bit of information, I'm not hard on cars. When I crashed it sure it was
    11 years old, but I'd driven less than 60k miles, and it was a turbo diesel !
    I have been told by friends who know about cars that I could save money by
    buying a high mileage , but well looked after car as I do very little driving.
    My latest car after two years has done about 8k.

    I don't know what you Ameticans call it, as the tarmack is black
    You can't see it, until you're driving backwards, thinking
    " something's not right here !" :D

    Just kidding. We call it black ice as well. I took a fall on my Suzuki on some of that once, bike pinned me & we skidded for 20 feet. Lucky I had a robosuit on like Graves in DAD... bike worked fine after.
    I miss my bike... :#

    There was a great show on here last week ( I'm sure America had it first)
    Which had footage from helmet cameras from cyclists and guys on
    Motorbikes. To show their perspective on crashes. It was amazing. -{

    Did you see the one where a motorcycle dude crashed & flipped in the air & landed on the car in front of him like freakin' Spider-man? THAT was unbelievable. :o

    as I thought, " He's dead, he's dead " :D but they all survived. -{

    About two years ago I had this car-

    citreon.jpg

    Which I enjoyed very much until I drove it through a deep puddle (not uncommon in these parts) and it died. I reported this to my insurance company,who classified the incident as "lost control" which was not true, and I didn't find out about it until I changed insurers.
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Lost control ?
    Would that make it an" emotional wreck" ? :D

    HSBC, caught doing a bit of tax dodging, helping rich clients avoid tax.
    Many of the schemes illegal, yet since2010, there has only been 1 prosecution.
    As one commentator said, if this was people on benefits, they'd be running the
    Courts non-stop prosecuting people. :#
    Also once again the guy running it was made a Lord :)) , that's his punishment. 8-)
    Even though the Government knew about this tax avoiding scheme.
    Is it any wonder so many people are looking at other political parties, when you see
    The corruption of the establishment.

    As ive said before ,its the upper classes looking after the upper classes, If it was me or you doing a bit on the side to make ends meet ,They would come after you with the full force of the law .Has anybody seen those posters on the buses /trains ect from the inland revenue,,well how much did they bloody well cost ? . Go after the likes of HSBc ,ooh cant do that ,Cuthbert Ponsonby -Smythe,went to Harrow ,it would look bad on the school ,

    In tonights Evening standard ,there is an article ,regarding the people who were responsible for the London rioters ,It goes on to say
    that all those who were arrested/charged/cautioned,by the police 1,500 or so (give or take )have gone on to commit another 3,500
    crimes between them ,ranging from 12 murders to robbery,burglary,theft,rape ect ect ect, Now when is the penny going to drop with the Eton educated dimwits in charge ,these people cannot be rehabilitated ,they don't want to be .They don't want jogs in shops and offices,they don't want mortgages ,all that is for MUGS ,as they put it.These people need to be sent to prison for 25 years ,for theft, burglary,robbery. So when one of them says ,ear lets steal a car, his mate will say ,"didn't you here about Dave he just got 25 years for nikin a motor",.lets see how quickly this puts these scum out of business ,

    My programmes are being deleted on Youtube. Made playlists of every series of London's Burning. The uploader, or someone from Youtube has removed them. Where else can i watch it online as it is no longer on TV? X-(

    Took me a long time to make those playlists! X-(

    After we watched "The Equalizer",last night, we started to trawl :# through the 900 odd channels ,to see if any thing worth watching was on ,so there we are sitting on the sofa with remote in hand ,click "no" click "no that's rubbish" click "crap, then we come across
    this poor African girl ,having her dangly bits ,being brutaly sliced off (F.G.M.) by this old woman, whilst being tied down ,by these other three women,(including her mum 8-) .The scene was set in this battered out old tin hut,on a fly infested dirty quilt in the roasting hot African sun .Now this poor girl obviously knew what was coming,she had probably been told by her school friends .
    and was understandably terrified, Now ive read about this in the papers its seems to be in the Evening standard every day . Now I know this is their tradition,under the guise of ALLAH wants it done ,(does he really)???.And I know traditions are hard to break,but its not a tradition here,in the UK ,So if you want to live here ,abide by our rules or f**k off back to Africa.As it will be us poor UK taxpayer
    who has to fork out to repair these poor girls wedding tackle (on the NHS)when they get older.There should be a huge sign hanging up at Heathrow (I don't know they can afford to fly here in the first place but that's another rant) saying ,if you practice FGM ,
    p*ss off ,your not welcome here. Thank you Mr angry of Kent X-( X-( X-(
