    how many zeros are there in a billion ? A Billion Pounds means nothing unless you can relate it to something we can understand better. I hope this helps you to understand what a mess our government has got us into. Thank you Mr Darling!! How many zeros in a billion? This is too true to be funny. The next time you hear a politician use the Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about Whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, But one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective i…

    Having trouble with the bike starting after it gets warm. Green light is hard to get on, and cant figure out why the clutch switch wont let it start in gear, you know with the clutch held in. Now in the mean time you can push it off and starts every time. I have had the bike for going on 5 years and love it. My first bike. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    This bike has me completely stuck sometimes. I love her, but trying to find parts to fit is extremely time consuming. I had to replace the front forks and wheel after a slight 'accident' and have eventually got it back on the road. The forks were slightly annoying to source but manageable. Then I got a wheel through ebay that fitted perfectally until it was being fitted and it was found that the bearings were the wrong size and apparently impossible to buy! However, now one of my back shocks have blown and realise the other will more than likely go soon and want to find some new ones as soon as humanly possible. Does anyone know of any shocks from ano…

    Some little shit has made off with my pride and joy. Was parked in my girlfriends front garden overnight, chain on back wheel and down a steep embankment of grass to her front door. Its a bit of an effort to get out so thought no one would have the time to. I was so wrong. If anybody sees or hears of anything, please let me know. Chris =]

    Hi there. I currently ride a yamaha fazer 600 and I lost my job recently due to cut backs in the way the public sector is being funded so I'm moving to London to get a job where positions like mine are better funded- However I don't want to get political. I just want to know what riding in London is like full time. I'm gonna be living in Wood Green on a temp basis for a bit. I heard that bike theft is a pretty big problem in London. At the moment I have no way of keeping my bike indoors, but when I move again I might be able to keep it indoors. Anyone got any tips for riding in London? Should I invest in any other security devices? Or should I maybe keep m…

    Teacher asks the class to name things that end with "Tor" that eats things. The first little boy says "Alligator", Miss. "Very Good, that's a big word." The second boy says "Predator", Miss. "Yes, that's another big word, well done." The third boy says "Vibrator", Miss. After nearly falling off her chair she says "That's a big word, but it doesn't eat anything." "Well my sister has one and she say's it eats batteries like there's no tomorrow."
