  2. Child's Prayer: Dear God. Please send clothes for all those poor ladies in Dads computer.
  3. Mines is the same, I wouldnt worry about it, if you look at the bottom part of the pivot clamp you will see that its angled, i.e. the opening above and below the pivot bolt is kinda like a V on its side, the lever itself has a parallel profile where the bolt goes through, hope this helps
  4. yeah but in an office environment everyone will have their 'desk-tidy', I'd imagine yours is a shell case from 22mm howitzer , and 'office types' keep their 'good pens' in a secret place and are well practised in keeping a 'poker face' on when directly interrogated about PSI (Personal Stationery Items)
  5. At least your intact (mostly) , sorry to hear that Dan, but glad your OK big yin, at least you wear the gear-not like some of the 'Twangers' I see round my streets, speedy recovery m8 for you and your 'baby'
  6. this country has really gone to the dawgz, they ban fox hunting (way hey at last one up on the toffs), the wiley old foxes have re-integrated their skill-sets-Blairite fashion http://i447.photobucket.com/albums/qq196/j...08/image001.jpg , the toffs being too much "hey look at me", with their White chargers and red blazers blowing bugles at their shouting dogs, not 'stealth hunting' really, just a "fukin racket fur fuxake", and we, the pheasants, doing things in a traditional way still get away with (cos we wear cammo), stuff like badger baiting, hare coursing and 'bulldog bashing', well for £55 earth pounds I'd rather drop acid, go to two festivals, and watch all the aforementioned, but with far more colours, and a decent sound track,
  7. I've had a moose loose aboot ma hoose, but I've never followed it up, have had a rat in me kitchen what hamma gonna do, but alas I've never followed that up either, life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone, I hear thou call my name, and it feels like home
  8. Or when someone asks you if you've got a pen, and you know full well you havent, you always frisk yourself anyway, even just for a second try it out on your friends and family
  9. What was the question again ?
  10. I'd prob leave that job to a professional Stevo, if it was the Jawa then I'd have a go, harder to burn holes in bent rail track
  11. I checked my in box earlier and had recieved the regular E-mail/newsletter thing from the otherwise faultless YOC, only this one looked like a script file, having a 17" monitor I calculated (well one of the kids did) that the mail is exactly3 and a half cubits long and unreadable, maybe I need my box de-fragmented? have any of the readers had a similair problem?
  12. you take it easy there big fella and dont be getting bold
  13. Dont see it as a negative or a fault, when your going faster you need to see further up the road-hence the light gets brighter, when doing suburban riding your lamp will be outputting 25-30 lumens, at ramming speed that will increase to between 30 and 55 lumens, its 'designed in', I think it was succesfully patented in 1972 by one Edwin Moletrap, very clever circuitry lay out,' its called 'the intelegent tacoluminescent system', T-I-T-S ™ for short, so look on the bright side it makes more sense to go fast ! enough intelegent input there, why dont I have another beer then
  14. I would agree taskmaster, after you've shot your load you could finish the wierdo with a good fisting m8, teach him not to go around firing accusations at people
  15. would go for the new wheel/tyre/disc option, you will prob get charged 'itchy fanny money' for a repair to a wheel made of an alloy which no right minded person would repair and then do 200 miles on
  16. So to sum up, you go out with top half bomb proof, 'Fairy' soft hands, commando midrif-except the pants which no one can see cos their cammo'd-safety catch on-and water tight, and sometimes you wear 18 holers in the rain ? Mama mia by ABBA
  17. I would say Hagon do well engineered replacement parts, at a 'keep it real fanny bawz' price, I've done my XJ front end (think in the dire States this is called a 'Sega II, or something, anyway its 'mega'), so I would give the Hagon guys an 'air slap', not good with American terminology
  18. Hey Hey Hey, well done HC, your gonna be gibbering like a budgie all night me thinks, stay safe big yin, and keep the rubber side down
