  1. Some of the 'new' houses have been empty and boarded up for years. Some nice looking properties too. What's going on?
  2. On a serious note, I find this a decent site for car reviews. What's good, what's bad etc. http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/fiat/multipla-2000/?
  3. Her daughter contributed to that thread. A sad story indeed
  4. Good point. The thread should read "How can you tell if the injectors need replacing IN SHEFFIELD"
  5. So...... what sort of car is it? And what sort of nick is it in?
  6. The Snake is passable, with extreme caution. http://remaxhallmark.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451d52f69e201053610bb24970b-800wi
  7. Happened to me. The plastic arm has an aluminium bush, which corrodes to the spindle. The plastic arm snaps off, leaving the bush well and truly stuck. That's why it's so hard to find a second hand one; they won't come off, without breaking. What's worse is, the spindle comes through the window glass, so too much force trying to free it, and your window breaks. Take the nut off, then use a junior hacksaw to cut across the aluminium bush. It's really soft, and cuts like butter. Then it just drops off. Fit your new arm...sorted. Main dealer part,bout 20 quid.
  8. Cambs Construction. The houses have stood unfinished for 18 years.Don't know why though. I got this info from a passing tramp. I don't know if it is based on actual facts.
  9. Coalite is expensive,but easy to light. Sunbrite is cheaper,but it's bitch to get going. Use Coalite to get your fire started,then keep it topped up with Sunbrite. I'll stick with gas,thanks.
  10. There's a photo of an old tram coming under the railway bridge on Prince of Wales Rd. On the wall outside Davy United (as it was) someone had painted 'SACK THE TORIES NOT THE WORKERS' in big white letters. If you look carefully,you can still see it today. (the slogan,not the tram obviously)
  11. Yes,but..... It's bigger,better,cheaper,and open.
  12. Hemswell is bigger,better,cheaper,and already open.
  13. But...if I can't get off my drive, I can't get to said junctions, so there'd be no point in gritting them would there?
  14. Don't look at him... That's exactly what he WANTS you to do.
  15. They turn them off at the end of October. Castleton's your best bet, if you're out that way.
  16. Traffic "calming" measures that force people onto the wrong side of the road, into the path of oncoming traffic, which should technically have the right of way, but usually doesn't. This must have been the brainchild of a total pillock. It's a wonder no-one's been killed.
  17. I voted "don't care" because after reading the first couple of lines, I didn't care enough to bother reading the rest of it.
  18. I wonder if all those Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle costumes are still in there. They had THOUSANDS of them.
  19. Sorry to hear that, ironing lady. Just out of curiosity, what time does he set off on his travels, and what time does he call it a day?
