dann2707 Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Yeah it definitely does affect your premium sadly. I know I got crashed into a few years ago. He admitted liability but I'm still getting penalised despite trying every single f**king insurance company and I trust that you know I'm northern enough to try every company to see if I can get it cheaper.

Tom Booth Posted February 23, 2020 Report Share Posted February 23, 2020 Dusted the bike off for an hour in Yorkshire this afternoon on some woodland just outside Dalby forest. Missed riding so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aener Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Tore apart a moulding old shipping crate to make some bookshelves. Reclaimed wood floats my boat. Forgot to take a picture pre-destruction but it was essentially green and furry. Had to chuck a few planks as done-for, but stripped the remainder back and found total gold Bear in mind this was in garage lighting, with a relatively poor phone camera, and no finish on the wood. Can't wait to see how much it pops with some oil! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing major but the girl who crashed into us has claimed full responsibility and got a message from her insurers saying they're covering everything. Not a great way to end the day but positive outcome! A week ago someone hit my parked car and fled. A good Samaritan left the number plate of the car on my window and postman saw it aswell thankfully. But yer, waiting to hear back from their insurance to see if they are admitting liability. **nts.

AdamR28 Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Yeah, an 07 Czar which I chopped about 300g off, then had anodised. Wheelbase was about 995, it's definitely the lens! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR28 Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Ha! I think the bit of wheel out of shot /cropped off would have looked like a banana! Yeah I sold it in the end, was a top frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 Hate double parking space parking wankers. Will always dump the green turd inbetween if I can. Today was no exception 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_Fel Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 I don't understand why people get so wound up by people parking outside lines in empty car parks? Fair enough if its peak hour and there's no spaces. Do you never exceed the speed limit and put your hand brake on when you stop at red lights too?

Mark W Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 It probably stems from the fact there's usually a type of person who does it, and nobody likes that type of person. As a result, irrespective of however busy it is, people still have that initial response to them. I assume these f**ks parked like this when it wasn't as busy, but by the time we got there it was rammed and we had to wait for a space. That car to the far left that's only just creeping into frame is also parked at an angle and covering two spaces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Yoshi Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 On the plus side to this whole lockdown shit. Means the diggers are back in the yard long enough so I can get the founds dug out for the house. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forteh Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 Yesterday, Aneurin decided that he would try walking downstairs, tentatively he took one step, panicked a bit and went back to the top to re-evaluate; he made it down holding onto the bannister spindles and my hand. Today he's not been off the stairs if he can wrangle it, climbing stood up and coming down holding onto the spindles on his own, somewhat frustrated that he can't get the stairgates to open not matter how hard he lifts them or fiddles with the catch mechanism! He's 13 months old next week 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious, how deep do you have to dig the foundation in that area? (I can't tell from the pic.) Here (Eastern Canada) have to dig at least 6' down.
