    A small amount Either way makes little difference apart from Helping.!

     

    A bit of Diesel in Petrol will actually help...A bit of Petrol in Diesel will help.

    I think someone was pulling you leg perhaps.

     

    The Crawshaws at Crystal Peaks was part of a fairly large chain that collapsed into administration, it was originally setup in Bristol in the early 2000's under a different company name.

    WOW...Me along with a few others never knew that..!..

     

    What Chain?

     

    How come you knew?

    They used to be camouflaged on the carpet but now we have hard floors they stick out a mile  and can get some speed up.

    I chuck them in the pond for the fish

    Now THAT made me chuckle. :D  (Apart from chucking them into the fish pond.!!:shakes:)

     

    House spiders are harmless and are a good way to keep 'Flying insects' like Flies under control.

     

    An old saying..."If you want to live and Thrive, leave the spider alive...:thumbsup:;):)

    the trouble is today we just dump bikes ,when the go wrong ect,in my day in the 60s they were sold to a younger kids ,and you bought a second hand one from a older child,in fact we recycled more inn them days,milk bottles,pop bottles and never dumped anything unless it was past its best in every way,old best clothes were sold or used as play cloths,newspapers were used for fires,chip paper,cleaning windows ect.

    I remember going to my Grand parents back in the early 70's. They were absolutely loaded but insisted on keeping an 'Outside Loo' and the toilet paper was neatly cut squares of newspaper hung on a piece of string.!

     

    We hated going...But it was a chore we had to endure.

     

    The christmas presents were awful, a second hand book wrapped in glossy xmas paper..!!

     

    We stayed over one time and to keep us warm in bed we were given a HOUSE BRICK (that had been warmed up in the kitchen coal fire).. covered in a very thick sock .,!

     

    No modern fandangled hot water bottles here lad..!

     

    Fond memories though.

    i would say that film was mid 60s.

     

    If you freeze at about 3.37, it looks like a C registered car ('65?), maybe an A35 van or similar.

     

    But interesting, few dodgy overtakes though!

    I would also say mid 60's...Yes that's an Austin A35 van.

     

    You have to laugh at some of the 'Overtakes'... It appears some of them drivers were in a rush doesn't it..!!

    I’m sure there are many on here who think that no price is too much to pay for Brexit but to be fair, Brexit was only part of the reason Thomas Cook tanked. Having said that, without Brexit they would have found it much easier to find the investment needed to finance the recovery.

     

    What most leave supporters don’t seem to realise is that once we leave the EU we will step down a couple of leagues economically so not only will large failures like this occur more often but we won’t be in any position to even pick and choose which companies, if any, we save.

     

    So much for taking back control of our own economy.

    My BOLD.

     

    What the bluddy hell are you on?

     

    We will NOT step down ANYWHERE.! 

     

    Quite the opposite.

     

    We will be regarded as sure footed and determined.!

     

    Not to mention we will be £350 MILLION pounds A WEEK the richer.

     

    Do the maths.

    Is it only ME that find this absolutely shocking?

     

    Someone is WILLING to pay a company for a lead?

     

    (That may or may not EVEN EXIST.).!

     

    Craig76. Do things the Old Fashioned way. Get some leaflets printed and shove them through as many Letter Boxes as you can.

     

    If you are good at what you do then you will soon earn a good reputation and plenty of Clients.

    Hopefully the development will require the installation of a set of traffic lights. There isnt enough along that stretch..

    :D:thumbsup::P...Very frustrating isn't it..!

     

    Here's a fab old clip....It includes Penistone road BEFORE all the Lights.!

     

     

    SKIP to around the 19 mins mark...Where they come onto the A61 at Tankersley.

     

    Past High Green and through Grenoside.

     

    When they enter 'Dee Dar land'....:thumbsup::D

    I hope you got it back. I recently lost all my photos for the last year or more when I was thinking of making  a back up from a 1GB SD card . It suddenly became impossible to read and computer does not recognise any files at all. PLUS , the camera cannot read any images either .Someone told me it might be still possible to read them .Does  anyone know ?

    I know this may seem obvious, but have you tried cleaning the contacts on the SD card? And have you tried it in a different computer?

     

    I have a 10 year old 4GB SD card and everything is still on it and it works perfectly.! (I have never heard of an SD card 'Wearing out'.)

     

    Another thing that can cause problems are magnets. Has your SD card been stored near anything magnetic?

     

    Failing that....This article will be of great help to you. (Just click on the Link below.)

    Let us know how you get on.
