Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement

Cyclist has reported this close pass to the cops. Not sure what happens to the other close pass occurring ahead of him as the cyclist (perfectly legitimately) goes up the inside of the truck. https://twitter.com/chaponabike123/status/1765703502360179181 Nothing wrong with either the can or the truc...

Anyway, I know one Lotto winner - he won £1.8m on his 18th birthday back in 1994 when that was a genuin...

Re: Euromillions immediate purchase

I've played this game before. There's a 6 car unit for let near me. That would be acquired. Race car and nice track car would be next. I'd quite fancy a go at the Mini JCW challenge that's on the TOCA package. I'd also like to build an Elise to take all out victory at race of remembrance. Big enclos...

Single rear axle with 2 tyres - wonder what that weighs fully loaded with 30 passengers plus luggage 😶

Best i get even on CAT 6 with them is around 30 meg (from a promised up to 500 meg) versus 550 in the house on CAT 6. I should really have a play with m...
