Well done, how many years did you say it was since the last?

Last tax disc was 1999. The dvla website and mot tester said he had no records of any mots so I’m assuming that was the last time it was on the road

Anything to stop the crap from getting up further in the arches! They seem to get good reviews.

I've been using them for many, many years. Can be a bit fiddly to first install, but do a fine job and easy enough to remove/re-install once they've settled in.
Sometimes my tire grabs an edge on full-lock on uneven terrain, but generally, two-thumbs up!

Damm the BBC! They've cancelled robot wars again. Anyone want to buy a wheel chair chassis and a pair of motor controllers. I've suddenly ended up with a spare set.

Yes,that happens to me all the time...
But there is worse, there is the "water hammer effect". When you are thinking and you try to stop and your brain starts bouncing back and forth between thinking and not.

Ive had to dig myself out (litterally) twice this year. once in two decades was enough!

old original
Bits that have lasted 25, 26, 27 years get replaced, and the new bits only last 25, 26, 27 MONTHS, if you are lucky. Somebody's making money somewhere!

Minispares do their best to manufacture parts to original spec but lower volumes now mean most big component manufacturers are no longer interested. Therefore price goes up or quality comes down to compensate....or in worst case both!

Decided to read the travel advice about Japan. Nothing surprising, risk of typhoons, earthquakes, Godzilla, etc. Then I Google travel advice for the UK. Holy Hell do we sound like an unsafe place compared to other countries.
