    Enough rain for you?

    I've just moved to Cumbria and have just had an offer accepted on a house. Was visiting it regularly over the last few days to make sure all was well but know of one that was due to exchange contracts this week only to find the house under water. I'm living in Workington just now, and it is...

    Am i paranoid?

    Chilled ... paranoid ... probably. Hyper ... I suspect most definitely. Enjoyed my swap with you & if I could get home and distribute some of my Staurogyne reserves, I would. looked at some of the plants you had up recently thinking I might hace swapped for St. but I'm not there at the mo...

    what car are we driving?

    I have now returned to the world of normality, after having a Diahatsu Charade GTti (which was fantastic) and gave me the bottom tax band when that was brought in for cars less than 1.1l .... and then a Clio 197, again awesome especially on the moor roads in the North of Scotland, I have finally...

    A new Addition!

    Very nice. Must be depressing for you though - seeing another glass box in the room with no water, fish & plants in it. :lol:

    New Cars... Good MPG?

    I've got the new Megane Coupe 1.5 diesel (106bhp). I've done around 2500 miles in the month that I've had it, most of it motorway and it's giving me 53mpg. When I measured it seperately for a trip down the A9 at 50-60 mph the rate went up close to 60mpg. The bumf they give you advises that...

    Ashes Final Test

    This batters paradise of a strip isn't looking quite so hot now and hard to imagine that there is only one specialist spinner in the whole 22 players selected.

    time to retire from UKAPS

    Seems like every time I take time out from the site I come back to see thoughts of somebody leaving. Guess I'll have to make sure I stay on all the time :lol: Good to hear you're not going anywhere though - this site has expoded into life thanks to contributions from people such as yourself...

    ID This Piece of Kit!

    I'd go for a bit of FOD damage to one of the blades you were inspecting on that turbine shaft

    I don't know you personally John, however, I do know it will be a great loss to the site if you do leave. I, for one, hope you reconsider.

    Anyone else share the same plant buying habits?

    I refuse to buy more than 1 pot of whatever I'm after now and just propagate my own from that pot.

    I have a couple of annoying glitches on my PC

    Had the same as well, went with sepaparate CD & DVD drive in the end and solved it but 2 x DVD was a no-go for me and didn't spend the time to find out why. I've now only got single DVD with everything being much faster though.

    Peace @ UKAPS, please

    Well said George and good to see some positive reaction too. Must admit I missed all the fuss with computer problems. Is that a recent promotion ?? I'm sure you had Cpl tapes on the last pic I saw - if so many congrats.

    My "proper" job...

    Did the RAF recruitment team get you to write that George ? :lol: Have to admit, I've also found that armourers are good at aircraft moves and hangar sweeping too. :wink:

    Motorist beats 98mph speeding charge by buying back his car!

    Saw that the other day and thought it was ridiculous that he had to go to that length to prove his innocence. He's now got another battle too if he wants to recover his costs.

    Feeding wild birds

    I'm lucky in that I live at the edge of a small village so birds are a common sight, but we too get planty of visitors. The bird table and a few feeders are place outside the patio doors so that our zebra finches and parrot see them come and go. Another thing to do is soak any fats from...

    GnR's latest album

    LOL, I'll just say that I've got Girls Aloud on in the background but I'll blame the parrot, it's his favourite group :oops:

    GnR's latest album

    Nope doesn't matter at all. My kids laugh at me when they see me tapping my foot to Pussycat Dolls or some such music and can't understamd how I can be listening to ACDC one minute and then when it's finished put Sheryl Crow or even the 3 Tenors on. I can remember seeing ACDC at Birmingham NEC...

    GnR's latest album

    I'll look forward to listening to it then. My tuppence worth: I saw Metallica with Anthrax supporting way back in ..... well way back anyway (showing my age now) and they were both awesome but I just haven't been able to listen to any Metallica after Load. Even that only gets the occasional...

    F1 is a complete joke.

    Have to admit, I'm starting to think the F in FIA stands for Ferrari. Seems a McLaren driver just has to look the wrong way to get a penalty and that has happened for years. Ferrari seem able to run illegal brake systems, barge boards bits falling off the car, driving dangerously in the pits...

    Fish TB

    Can't agree more Matt, I think the more we cocoon ourselves from germs the more likely we are to contract something. That said, it doesn't mean I'm going to go to nasty areas just to see what I can resist but there seems to be too many people telling us this is bad and that is bad.
