Kram, it's obvious that you're fully comitted to your current level of understanding. Why let experience interfere with what you can learn on line Best of luck.

I've got RAC cover on my van. Never had to pay for it either in 4 years yet. The first year was thrown in for free as a perk when I bought the van. Every year thereafter it's been renewed without me paying a penny. Must be some or other admin error somewhere. Or, after reading this thread, maybe it's just not worth anything anyway. I've had to call them out once. No drama; they came quickly and fixed the issue and we were on our way. (Though I suspect that may have been luck as it was an intermittent fault with the injectors, two of which I had to replace shortly afterwards).

Not just KS, Cleverly went on behalf of Sunak (Sunak was pencilled in to go also), and who can forget, as she was then, the future Prime Minister Truss, opening up new pork markets in Beijing. Trump went to China and is planning to do again in April, even Albanese went last year... Seams like there is something in China that the world wants - perhaps some of the posters on here would prefer us to be left out, and left in the 1950s also.

Your legendary comprehension skills quoting out of context yet again, and after the conversation has moved on yet again. No helping some.

I am very glad to hear that as I moved my two cars to them and took the recovery.

Hopelessly overloaded Discovery complete with family and 2 nasty dogs, recovered from half way along M4 to home one Christmas Eve (catastrophic air suspension failure). LV (car insurance company). Quick, efficient, seamless. Couldn’t rate them higher.

I went for cover with the insurance, I reckon if they're insuring the vehicle they can't claim they didn't know it was a 20 year old defender if/when it breaks down. So far not tried them out, but there's always tomorrow....

Never had this either, so many e-clips in the world working fine there is something wrong with your setup. Either the clip , shaft, chain, sprocket.

But.. on the positive side, you now have: Way better traction Less lawn tyre pressure 4'' more ground clearance Looks the business/much more fun to bounce around in ! 😆

Again absolute rubbish, with friends like that who needs enemies. Europe has gone 😂😂 dry your eyes.

You've more chance of him getting scald to death.

My Carlos Fandangos increased total width about 8”!

Prison.

He's definitely not wired right, when you say early shower justice do you mean to cure insanity (cold shower treatment), or in terms of prisons?

Why? Explain your reasoning. Mick's right, we in the UK need any friends we can get right now. We're a small island in a big and increasingly dangerous world. I'd rather it wasn't China, but needs must. We don't have many options when it comes to Spheres of Influence. The US has gone, (although they're now far too unstable to rely on anyway), Europe has gone; that only leaves China and Russia.

Lovely job looks smashing what a view too sit and have a cuppa and admire your work

A Tree shear helps no end , some older hedges are impossible too pull your steepers out intertwined blackthorn are the worst I got some photos of a road hedge we done where we had a 13 ton with a shear and thinned the whole hedge out as most was hanging out over the road

Teen who murdered Leo Ross in Birmingham 'enjoyed hurting people' WWW.BBC.CO.UK Det Insp Joe Davenport says the killer attacked his victims in Birmingham for... Another one for some early shower justice.

A lot of upvc fascia/gutter suppliers run them, long lengths but lightweight. Looks like that one is owned by dab tho who do construction in acaffolding

Absolutely 👍

Animals have been adapting to climate change for the last billion years. Lots of them didnt though, hence no T. rex's knocking about.

2 years of training and gaining panel hours, studying every spare minute and doing my job at the same time. That’s just one qualification lad. I don’t mock the fact you have degree I mock you Mark . I do OK for a thick c..t. What is so predictable about you is like so many socialist types you hate anyone trying to improve themselves or get on. I did indeed use post it notes prior to this exam in fact the hotel room where I stayed for two weeks to be able to focus 100% prior to taking the test had its walls covered in studying material. Quick google Yes, the IMCA Diving Supervisor exam is widely considered difficult and challenging, often described as a "notoriously difficult" examination. It is a critical, high-stakes exam that requires comprehensive knowledge, particularly for candidates who do not prepare adequately. Here is a breakdown of why it is difficult and how to prepare: Why the Exam is Considered Difficult High Knowledge Standard: The exam covers complex topics, specifically in diving physics, diving physiology, and diving operations. Scenario-Based Questions: Questions are not just based on memorization; they are often scenario-based, requiring practical application of knowledge to manage diving operations and emergencies. Strict Passing Criteria: Candidates must achieve a minimum of 75% to pass. Time Constraints: The Air Diving Supervisor (ADS) exam, for example, is 2.5 hours long. Electronic Format: Exams are now computer-based, with only one question viewed at a time. Language Barrier: Non-native English speakers may find the technical language particularly challenging, although some time allowance is made. Key Areas of Focus Physics: Requires understanding gas laws, pressure, and buoyancy calculations. Physiology: Involves understanding decompression sickness, gas toxicity, and neurological assessments. Regulations/Procedures: Deep familiarity with IMCA guidelines (e.g., IMCA D022) is essential. How to Pass Disciplined Study: Start a self-study program long before the exam. Panel Experience: Ensure you have high-quality, practical experience on the panel as a trainee supervisor. Review Material: Familiarize yourself with the US Navy Diving Manual and specific IMCA Information Notes. Take a Course: Attending an IMCA-approved training course (like those offered by KBA Training or Trauma Training) is highly recommended to bridge knowledge gaps. Candidates who do not prepare adequately often fail, particularly in the physics and operations sections. PS Whats your degree in ?
