  1. I reiterate, what the f**k is it?
  2. Bellend that gets banned from TF, vowing never to come back because everyone's a stuck up fag and bums inspired then 6/12 months later comes back, keeps a decent profile for abit then turns back into aforementioned bellend.
  3. Why the f**k did you throw a stone at an already dead crow
  4. Jesus Christ. I found myself looking where I expected him to land, then he goes 2/3 further!
  5. Used to work as a Furniture refinisher working on kitchen doors, end panels, cabinets, furniture and the sort. The guy I worked for lost a lotta money and I got dropped to part time/when there's work so I took the opportunity to go semi self employed as a cabinet maker. There wasn't enough work from my old employer so I left and started working at my dads auto factors whilst I carried on trying to push my own work. I was offered a sick job a few days ago working on shop repairs for Halifax, Lloyds tsb, Next, Primark etc all over europe. Such a sick job but it's a little pay cut plus it means working every bank holiday, most Sundays and nights. Sooooo don't know what to do..
  6. As your getting down the aerosol the thinners will be separating from the paint (plus your fingers going dead ) therefor thicker paint through a tiny nozzle, gives a spluttery spray from the can. Put your aerosol in some warm/hot water for a few minutes before you paint too. It'll thin the paint a little for you so it flows nicely, too hot thou and it'll dry on landing so you'll get no flow or nicely settled metallics. The only other advantage of roasting hot aerosols is you can pretty much bollock it on. By orbital sander you'll see no gains really passed 4-500 grit, by hand with paper 6-800 is about right.
  7. I wouldn't bother going any further then 600grit to be honest with you, by hand it's more then sufficient and the gains are so tiny. Look good thou man. Edit, just re-read your post. If your wet and drying between coats don't after your final base of silver. Sanding a metallic cuts the 'fleck' in the metallic so you get all sorts of weird sparkles. If your confident enough and at a ideal working temperature once your primer work is finished apply your first base of silver, leave 20ish minutes, 2nd coat of silver (no sanding needed, your coat will still be soft enough to use as a tack coat). Apply a 3rd if required then start with your clear coat repeating the same pattern up to 2/3 coats. Job jobbed, time halved
  8. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/royal-tybyn-gloves-2013/rp-prod88044 I bought some of these a few weeks ago Mike. Insanely impressed with them. Comfy, fairly warm, can't really tell your wearing them which is really nice.
  9. I was hammering down Sherwood pines kitchner trail about a year ago, I just caught out the corner of my eye this huuuuge black thing running across toward my path. I double taked and was sure it was a panther/big black cat or something so I absolutely soiled myself and just hacked for my life down the trail to the bike park. I looked back and this thing was still in the undergrowth behind me. I got to the bike park in the open and realised it was a black Labrador! It had no collar, tag, I.D or anything and it didn't look to friendly, clean or cared for so I just hooned away with poo in pants. Turns out this dog went missing in pines months ago after bolting for a squirrel.
  10. All the best for 2014 chaps. Hope it's a good one.
  11. All pots washed/dried, clothes in the wash/on the clothes horse/ironed what's dry, garage tidied, front room dusted, tidied and hoovered. Tea's in the oven too. Reward - a bag of hairbo starmix, a can of fosters and Senna on the telly. Poifick.
  12. Can't fault you, my missus has a 1.4 One with a few goodies on. Obviously it's not a rocket ship and handles ok'ish but it's still nice to drive and pretty fun.
  13. Give a shout when you do Dave. I'd be up for derby
  14. Kings of Leon - King of the Rodeo Bring back the old KOL
  15. As much as your girlfriend means to you, cherish the Christmas times you have with family. It was my first Christmas this year in my own home with the missus but still went to see my parents. My dads parents died when he was in his late 20s/ early 30s and it's just a shit reminder he only ever had 28 christmas's with his mum.
  16. Merry christmas all TF members, hope you all have a great day and Santa's been good to you all.
  17. Defiantly one to keep an eye on! Make sure he keeps getting videos out.
  18. Ordered some parts from CRC yesterday to rebuild my onone over new year. They've just turned up this morning! Edit: just realised Christmas peadobear became relevant again, horrarrr!
  19. Anyone of authority verify that address? It all just seemed abit sketchy on Facebook.....
  20. Whatever happened to the 'muel, don't wear it out' clip???
  21. Good lad. My dads just bought a fully rebuilt 1600twinport on twin solex for his bus, looking toward to getting that in.
