I like the Surrey Hills woodlands, I like the access to London, Guildford ...

Do you have regular rows with your spouse, partner or live-in-lover? Or to put it another way, I was wondering if it is possible, or indeed even normal , to share your life with someone and not have a fairly regular heated disagreement. I was thinking about it and decided that if you have a really secure relationship, where both parties are pretty much 110% confident that the ...

Narrower less complicated rear wings... Wider less fiddly front wings. Less guff around the side-pods. No mini-winglets and aerodynamic elephant-ears. Big fat slicks. Lovely! And the BMW is ugly as sin

Well, it turns out that it's the end of one of my ribs...! I asked my doc why i hadn't felt it there before and he just said it's because i hadn't noticed it before, sounds alittle strange to me, but he said i should live to see the rest of the year, which is nice...

Yeah! Unbelieveable! Filtering up the town end of the A3, come up behind some chap on an old style Triumph [w plate].... dayglo bib, jeans, slip on carpenters boots. So I sit behind him for awhile... then as a space materialises I draw alongside and show a wheel... he attempts to throttle up and squeeze me out so I move through regardless. He's absolutely fuming and follows us up to the ...

Farkin ell! You heard the news about the oil tanker that has been hi jacked near Somalia, 2m barrels of oil on board at approx £70 dollars each that's a good pay day by anybodies book Who is going to the rescue, batman, superman, ninja turtles??

I know its a buyer market, but we just had a bid on our house for £45k less than we're asking! Fortune favours the bold I suppose!

Where is it all being invested ? What's your first purchases ? (lottery is Sat night) Are you going to waste/spend it all or invest ? Me, i'd be down to the Aston MArtin garage on the Sunday buying a DB9 for the wife as she loves them. Ideally it would also have something nicer and more refined for me. I don't really want power... just comfort and gadgets. I'd then be making the...

Well done mate! Screwd.

Most people who have not met me think I'm a bloke. Even Popadop thought i was a bloke up until a few months ago Now that we have 'user CP' most people have worked out what side of the fence I'm from ?

It seems (to me at least) that we've a marked increase in thread closures, Naughty corner visits etc over the last few weeks... Now not wishing to stir up anti-mod feelings what does the TRC populace think ? good job? OTT ? or not enough ?? Genuine questions, not a poke at "The Mangement"

Parking wars have been declared on my street, we all managed to park sensibly, with 'verge' style with two wheels on the kerb on one side in order to create enough space to allow cars to get past - if you don't park to the verge on one side then cars really struggle to get through the narrow space (never mind an ambulance or fire engine). Today all residents have received a letter saying they ...

Eh?

Why do women stay with a boyfriend/husband that beats them up...? I was some birds knight in shining armour on wednesday. Long story short: I was driving from my morning school to go get my usual sarny from the bakers and saw some blokey stomping (usual neandetholic sway and stomp action) along in the middle of the road, he looked alittle stressed, i didn't think much of it, until i ...

If you could live in a virtual reality world that was convincing enough to feel real, and you could have anything you wanted in it, but you still knew it was virtual, would you live in it?

Hi there. Apologies in advance, but this is a serious, middle aged post. It's also actually two threads, but they're linked so I'll put them together. Did anyone watch Dispatches last night? About "child witches" in Nigeria? In summary, the people in these small villages blame anything bad that happens on witchcraft and Satan. For example, if someone gets ill, it means someone has ...
