Found a case of dialysis tubing sets dumped in a nearby field with some domestic junk. I'd guess someone on home dialysis died/was hospitalised and this was a house clearance.
I put a couple of #22 needles with about a 70 degree bend in them through a washer built up from inner-tube rubber under the air cleaner hold down butterfly. ... Read more
Hi all
First post looking for some advice.... Read more
Is a B-Max too big for him, Andy? It's a run-out model so there should be good deals to be had on it. It would have the extra height, although as we've discussed height isn't the only factor in ease of entry and exit. The only answer is to sit in one in the showroom to start with, and then take a test drive if it feels comfortable.
True, although its slower than his 1.25 Fiesta unless he went for the 1.0T, which doesn't have a great reliability record (as per views on this site), or the 1.6 N/A petrol (fine on performance) but he would definitely baulk at the list price of £17k (nearly three times the price he paid for his Fiesta - admitedly without inflation over 10 years). Let's just say he 'likes a good deal' when it comes to parting with his cash on that scale...

The massive loss of 1400 vehicles in last nights fire in Liverpool reminds me of the car fire we had on our car park at work.
A faulty electrical repair on a Cavalier caused the car to self ignite and being petrol it spread rapidly to the next petrol car. And so on until four cars were destroyed.
The fire suddenly car to a halt when it jumped to a Discovery. The paintwork was burned but the fire did not escalate. The reason it was diesel powered.
From the fire safety point of view this gives diesel cars a major advantage in many incidents.
Compare this with Richard Hammonds crash in the electric super car in the Swiss mountains. The fire burned for five days as the heat caused a chain reaction between the cells . Surely a major safety consideration if this had happened on a motorway Read more
No claims discounts are a "smoke and mirrors" trick. Whilst it may be protected, it doesn't stop them increasing your base premium by whatever factor they so choose.
