Mine was about 7.5 but with statins - and to be fair, a lot of diet changes, it’s down to 3.3 with both readings well in the good range.

I’m also on Ramapril for Blood Pressure (which is also working - 115 to 120 over 82 to 84 which isn’t the worst for a 50 year old who needs to lose a stone or two.

Who was our resident Fast Renault guy???

My sister had a 1.2 for a good while - bought it with 40k km’s and it never put a foot wrong.

Mum now has one - again, bought with about 40k km’s and it’s going well so far.

Non technical feedback but they do seem a decent car. Mini Dinny will be getting one for his first.

Someone recently pointed out to me that:

the precision missile attack on the enemy base before the bombing run could have been repeated on the SAM positions. Would have made the attack a lot easier

That’s a lot of house for that price in that location…

I do need to visit Dublin some day though.

I’d have the first house, the modern one, with the second grounds and pool (with a completely new roof structure) and a hard court instead of the grass court for me so we can play basketball. I like a bit of basketball

I’d personally prefer to have an orangery type structure, which houses a pool, hot tub, cold plunge and gym https://www.westburygardenrooms.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/pool-house-walled-garden-1024x576.jpg Similar to the above, but more ornate, and I’d want the option for everything to open at t...

I bought a 20l can in B&Q in 2003 when I bought my first house. It's still in surprisingly good condition. Can't remember what I paid for it but they're going for about the £30 mark.

Is that maybe the difference between Auto-Testing and a Auto-Solo ? the need for the vehicle to be road legal ?

Autosolos are forward only, autotests go backwards as well

Mini Specials presumably...

Ah brings back memories of freezing cold Sunday's standing around in industrial estate car parks watching my mates father race his Mini Special.

What's the weight of something like that Dave - 100k tonnes and more ?

Even drifting slowly, that's a hell of a force on the bridge and once it starts to go, all structural integrity is gone and it will always be a total collapse.
