Re: People (Office)
I would never have guessed that people that work in IT-related industry would prefer to sit at home in their underpants than work in a more sociable office environment :lol: We try to do at least 2 days/week in the office where everyone can be in at the same time. It's nice just to leave the house, ...

Re: Your fleet running reports
Yeah, it's 5.5hours all in, most of which is for the gearbox which with the ZF8s is a pain-in-the-arse job that involves getting the box up to temperature after refilling, doing the Magical ZF Dance of Acceptance etc to flush the fluid through all the valves, coolers, etc. The rest of it is pretty ...

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement
I've just had a look on Google and yep, that's a bit of a shit layout. Guidance is actually pretty good these days (since 2020) - it was a bit of a free for all before that, and that is a prime example. There's no markings to clarify priority, the surfacing is a right jumble, and then there's stupid...

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement
I've yet to find a layout that's confusing so I'd be interested to see what that looks like.

There you go. Genuine ZF kit and 10l of either Millers or 7l of Liqui Moly for £185.

Re: Your fleet running reports
That sounds like a lot, all round. 5.5hrs to do a box service? I think I paid about £300 for the ZF service kit a few years back and an hour's labour. What are they doing for the other 4hrs? Or does that include for the cam cover gasket as well?

Looks like a cycle crossing to me

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement
If you look at the cycle lane coming the other way, it looks like it stops where it reaches this crossing - likely just a pedestrian crossing? And I think therefore the cyclist was riding on the pavement, then crossed the road, and the pedestrian didn't expect to get hit by a cyclist at the START o...

Re: Your fleet running reports
My Audi did a full automatic emergency stop while I was away in Anglesey at the weekend. It was at a traffic light controlled crossroads where there was a car coming towards me slowly, indicating to turn, so I started to edge forward as I was turning right across him. My car must have thought there...

Re: Your fleet running reports
I think we have a dragging pad on the nsr of the Superb I'm guessing that it's probably just the sliders that need re-greasing. Has anyone done this on a VAG model with the electronic parking brake? I don't have VCDS or the like so was just thinking I could take one pin out at a time to re-grease, ...

Re: Tony Martin Pt2
Given the lack of firearms charges noted against them, I seriously doubt it - firearms offences are an easy win for the CPS given how restrictive ownership/use is here. This was rural Derbyshire, not a needle-strewn estate in east London. I was just going off what's listed in some of legal pages wh...

Re: Tony Martin Pt2
I'd have thought just having a loaded shotgun pointing at them would be enough for the scrotes to scarper, but maybe the "aggravated" part meant the guy did feel in real danger. Or as @Gavster says, he was at the end of his tether or had other stresses too. Or is it just a natural extensi...

Re: Tony Martin Pt2
The tone of the whole piece is pretty odd, but I guess they're severely restricted on what info they can include at this stage. I don't get why telling us the dead burglar played on a football team is relevant though. Because it's crucial that we know how many "promising footballers" are ...

Re: Decent Recent TV
I finished watching this last week and absolutely loved it. Beautifully shot and fantastic acting from the Japanese cast - I'm less sure about Cosmo Jarvis. I've actually ordered a book - "Anjin - The Life and TImes of Samurai William Adams" but believe it's on back order at the moment. Te...
Re: Parking
That's pretty self explanatory, look at the angle of the car parking spots, it's not easy to reverse in as the angle will be too sharp. In this case you're right. Although I'll often advocate for echelon parking to be reverse-in only. They used to have reverse in echelon bays years ago near Central...

Re: HMRC Automated Phone System
When you somehow get through to someone, in my experience, they're usually very helpful/good (and sometimes give you a direct number). But those fucking speaking menu things are an absolute nightmare. I never speak to a speaking menu. It has to go through to an operator anyway if you don't respond....
