Hmmm, after what happened to me, that's unsettling... there haven't been any unexplained withdrawals from your bank account, I hope!

Ahoy all

Does anyone do an etch for the 47/7 Trombone Pipes?

Or am I going to have to bend some wire... (The bending bit is normally fine, keeping the rest of it straight can be a bit of a trial...)

I just read that whole thread and had to try not to laugh or I could be writing parts of that again myself. Blu-tone should be nominated for the Booker prize for literature.

They say I can drink as much water as I like but not the 94% water which I usually drink. Oh and I have to have a sachet of Picolax this evening and another in the morning. I don't think I'll sleep well tonight 

I can't read picolax without mentioning this thread: https://singletrackworld.com/2009/02/the-picolax-thread-returns/

This was taken from a big mountain biking forum, but the contributions from "blu-tone" (highlighted in a fetching beige) are absolutely marvellous.

After Black Sabbath here is something a bit smoother. This band have been around for a while and were on the GRP label @kusojiji , I have quite a few of their releases but haven't listened to them for a while...


The title track from their third album Natural Elements is also the theme tune to BBC TV's Gardener's World.

Me too. It's been 5 years since the last one and this is the first time with Picolax. Previously I've been given Klean Prep. Having just had the first dose I have to say the Picolax tastes a lot better. Shame it was only 150ml, I could have drunk a lot more than that. Probaby not a good idea to do that though

Quote from: Newportnobby on July 08, 2025, 09:40:29 PM@zwilnik will tell you Citroen have done themselves no favours at all with their recalls. Seems they're happy to tell you not to drive their vehicles but any expenses e.g. hiring a car are refused to be met.

Yup bit of a lottery around the country and depending on what insurance company you're with. Some are saying you're insured to drive it, some are saying not (one or two are actually telling the same customer both in different calls). Some people are being told they can't get an appointment until January and others are just being ignored.

I'm still waiting to hear back from the local dealer but not holding out much hope for having the car to travel down for a family funeral at the weekend. So receipts will need to be kept for the inevitable small claims (or class action suit) when it does get sorted.

Not the first time I've had to go through this so I know what I have to 'look forward' to. Never had to split the doses either side of sleeping though as the procedure has previously been done in the morning so I've cleared out the day before. My appointment is late afternoon tomorrow so doses are split either side of the night. Really not looking forward to sleep time.

Erm, a lot more than a bit
