  1. If I had the dosh, would have one of these!!!!! Just listen to that engine!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BjtvJe_PjY
  2. Plus a couple of my oldies, a Fantic Caballero (excuse the mirrors) and DT175... still remember collecting the Fantic in 1974......not longer having to pedal my bike uphill....plus was able to ride it to London and Oxford to see friends....those were the days!!
  3. My 2003 KDX220 enduro wheelie machine (barely road legal)......plus have a 1990 Ducati 906...both currently being rebuilt during lockdown...
  4. Local Brooklands world record holding rider, found in Reading Cemetery
  5. Man survives electric shock of 14,000 volts which melted flesh from bones METRO.CO.UK His parents and newly pregnant parter were told he was unlikely to live for the rest of the day. Was informed by a neighbour who worked for SSE power can jump to earth even if you are several metres away....he lost a work colleague who's was carrying a metal tool box near a transformer...
  6. My daughter named him/her but thanks for the heads up!!! ps her new Budgie Sky Sky may be a girl too!!!
  7. Kevin the Kite....waits for his breakfast most days in our oak tree....fresh chicken or road kill pheasant are his preferences
  8. If used for firewood, cut up without delay as dries as hard as rock....
  9. Just heard about these today... New Ford Transit Trail AWD van review | Auto Express WWW.AUTOEXPRESS.CO.UK Rugged Trail trim arrives in the Ford Transit range, bringing four-wheel drive and go-anywhere ability
  10. Occasionally there are arrests..... https://www.readingchronicle.co.uk/news/18894392.men-charged-connection-reading-bracknell-thefts-vehicles/
  11. In todays Sun and the Reading Chronicle. Video no longer watchable... Put in search "Naked couple caught inside Reading Wetherspoons during lockdown" Guess their bosses can view it on their own CCTV .... Could be promoted as Pint pie and sex show for £5.49p, dress code.. men in raincoats only....
  12. Man builds wooden gym in his garden just in time for lockdown METRO.CO.UK Ohio resident Zachary Skidmore has included almost everything you need for a full-body workout. Does this give anyone some ideas?
  13. Thats the issue, they won't accept this as proof under their current conditions...you will need to go to the police...maybe this protects them from sellers and buyers putting in fraudulant claims if working a scam together???
  14. Read this on another forum about a ebay/paypal con....will do some more research when I get a chance. Basically, if you sell something valuable on ebay with a post option, bidder wins, they pay with paypal (plus post) but then collect it in person instead, then a week later, put in a claim to say they have not received the item, ebay/paypal then request for proof of postage, which you cannot produce... then recharge you! To be fair I always ask for cash on collection...but worth taking care....especially if they pay the extra for post then ask to collect....
  15. I have been to several funerals recently, some close friends and have noticed the off the shelf coffins are nice and shiney but look cheap if this is the correct word to use......your effort looks so much better...
