Murder at tesco
Tired of constantly being broke & stuck in an unhappy marriage, a young husband decided to solve both problems by taking out a large insurance policy on his wife with himself as the beneficiary, and then arranging to have her killed. A 'friend of a friend' put him in touch with a nefarious dark-side underworld figure who went by the name of 'Artie..' Artie then explained to the husband that his going price for snuffing out a spouse was £5,000... The husband said he was willing to pay that amount, but that he wouldn't have any cash on hand until he could collect his wife's insurance money. Artie insisted on being paid at least something up front, so the man opened his wallet, displaying the single £1 Coin that rested inside. Artie sighed, rolled his eyes, & reluctantly agreed to accept the £1 as down payment for the dirty deed. A few days later, Artie followed the man's wife to the local Tesco Super Store. There, he surprised her in the produce department & proceeded to strangle her with his gloved hands & as the poor unsuspecting woman drew her last breath & slumped to the floor........ The manager of the produce department stumbled unexpectedly onto the murder scene. Unwilling to leave any living witnesses behind, ol' Artie had no choice but to strangle the produce manager as well. However, unknown to Artie, the entire proceedings were captured by the hidden security cameras & observed by the store's security guard, who immediately called the police. Artie was caught & arrested before he could even leave the store. Under intense questioning at the police station, Artie revealed the whole sordid plan, including his unusual financial arrangements with the hapless husband, who was also quickly arrested. The next day in the newspaper, the headline declared .... (You're going to hate me for this .... ) 'ARTIE CHOKES 2 for £1.00 AT TESCO!'

ROAD TAX INCREASE !!!!!
FOUND THIS ON ANOTHER FORUM WHAT DO YOU THINK Motorcyclists Not Budgeted For Say bmf Angered that under the Chancellor’s recent pre-budget report, road tax rates for motorcycles are set to increase this year, the British Motorcyclists Federation have set up a petition on the No 10 website asking the Prime Minister to intervene and stop the increases. The bmf say that at a time of economic hardship and when sales of motorcycles are already down some 27% year on year, it makes no sense for any government to increase taxes on motorcycle ownership. Unlike the car world where motorists and the motoring industry have benefited from the car scrappage scheme, conversely, due to the weak pound, the price of motorcycles has increased and now motorcyclists are to be faced with a Vehicle Excise Duty increases of between 4% and 6% - and this at a time when the Consumer Prices Index is only 1.9%! The bmf’s Government Relations Executive Chris Hodder said: “This is all wrong. While in monetary terms the increases of between £2 and £4 are admittedly quite small, it’s not about the numbers, it's about the principle of increasing owner taxation at a time of economic hardship when the motorcycle industry is struggling to stay solvent.” The bmf are asking that in this an election year, all motorcyclists should sign-up to show the strength of feeling over motorcyclists and motorcycling being treated unfairly. The petitions says: 'We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to stop the increases in motorcycle tax proposed for 2010 Given that the motorcycle industry is facing some of its darkest days with sales slumping by around 25-30%, it makes no sense for any government to increase taxes on motorcycle ownership as is proposed in the Pre-Budget Report. We petition the government to support the motorcycle industry as it has the car industry and freeze or lower Vehicle Excise Duty and provide some other stimuli for the industry and not to attack it further by increasing the cost of ownership for law-abiding citizens.' Sign the petition at: http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/motorcycleved/

petrol prices
I would boycott a refinery if i thought i was not the only one doing it however what is the actual cost of our fuel before tax, more tax and vat and as vat goes back to 17.5% at the new year fuel will go up again and before long we will all be paying 20% vat and fuel will go up again. Maybe the only solution is to be an MP then you can claim it on expenses

Had a quick look on ebay and found someone selling wheel with disc and sprocket fitted and brand new tyre Bridgestone battleaxe bt021 all for £107 delivered, was needing a new tyre anyway ! Also anyone use bt021 on R6 ? or sports bike are they any good ? i usually use BT014s
