Re: Your fleet running reports

It will 100% put debris in the oil passages, the problem is it uses a bit of oil naturally, which then gets topped up with the wrong oil but right spec and damage happens. If it were operated in the perfect environment it would be fine but you can’t produce an engine like that to be used by the mass...

Re: Driving in London

I saw a Matt green with German luftwaffe insignia SLR just by the old Nigerian High Commision in Northumberland Avenue that night. By the Sherlock Holmes pub, It sounded like thunder and was bloody amazing.

Re: Driving in London

To be the ying to Gavs Yang, I once dropped my redhead wife at the Gi her Pug butchers for a sausage making class and had a lovely few hours warbling my way around London. Supercar spotting and enjoying the tunnels. When it’s back on the road I’ll go back for a late night warble, London is quite wo...

Re: Bye bye Starmer

I just don’t understand why all politicians seem to be cunts. I mean it must be a hard job to be under the spotlight but surely the percentage of politicians who haven’t played doggy biscuit, didn’t commit fraud, have t dressed like a baby at a house party and don’t secretly worship Hitler would be...

Re: Driving in London

I remember the Sadie Khan mayoral meeting where someone said we can prove you wanted this to happen, you signed these documents for this to happen, you’re on the record having attended these things happen, yet you say you were not aware of any of it. What do you say ? Er…….. don’t believe you so nex...

Excellent tree based joke there 😂😂😂

Wet belts are fine, they just do not tolerate any other oil in them at all. They don’t work for their intended purpose of being given to the general public.

Re: Driving in London

My sister worked for TFL, you should be grateful that you are allowed to use these fine roads! Whatever happened to the clever chap who had figured out that TFL had altered the traffic light timings a few months before the congestion charge was rolled out so they would be able to call it a success a...

Re: Driving in London

Oh fun days on the A127. Try Holland and Belgium, I was involved in a 5 car pile up yesterday evening, our 1 hour journey today took 3 hours as there were 7 crashes on the way into work. Tailgating, cutting up, no indication, far worse than anywhere in the U.K. In the towns though, calm, relaxed and...

Showing you give a shit is a big thing so any nervousness around wanting to come over well won’t be an issue.

Guessing no one read the Sky article? It states from multiple sources that she then lied to her employer, Aviva, was found out and sacked over it. But sure, she got home and realised it was sat on her desk.. 🙄 Starmer has stated lawmakers aren’t lawbreakers, plus the P&O thing and her closeness...

Re: Smithfield and Billingsgate Markets

The mother in laws father was a butcher at Smithsfield along with her grandfather. Really really sad and a big tradition and way of doing business will be lost.

Stupid decision which has placed money over history.

Re: Countdown to picking up new car day

I am slowly moving over to full carnivore for the last week or two of the experiment. Yesterday I had half an avocado, one portion of broccoli and a couple of small handfuls of blueberries, that was all, aside from meat and eggs. I do feel a bit better today (it's day 12 in real life) than yesterda...

Re: Cholestorol and heart disease.

It would be interesting to see what every person actually needs. My 10 year old needs double the food of his 17 month younger brother and even now, Connor would struggle to get down what Maxwell ate as a 7 year old. If it’s good quality food, they eat as much as they want, sometimes though, they jus...
