At least France has a car industry.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Those sort of anniversaries mean more to others than to me. I don’t know what all the fuss is about.” Motörhead also play this summer’s Download festival. |  |  |  |  |

*Vomits* As much as I can see the advantages of a hybrid in a city, the Prius is hateful. Enjoy.  Fin: Likewise, I'll be sticking to my 13 year old Astra. Needs new dampers and a gasket on the carb replacing as well as a general service over Easter, but in every other respect it's fine. It also has the awesome advantage of not being French.

Electric / Hybrid cars in cities scare the hell out of me as you can't hear them coming. They really really need to have a sound its down right dangerous otherwise.

I'd had my first for a year when I went to visit the dealer, (getting some info' on a car for someone else) and he mentioned that I could trade in my car for a higher spec model, keeping the payments exactly the same as I was currently paying. If he hadn't mentioned that I'd still have the first car.

Looked at the C3, but too small  More likely to go for a C4, although I think the Verso is looking like a winner at the moment, although I haven't tried the new Scenic. I'd like a hybrid/electric, but I think the more comfortable sitting position of the Verso/Scenic are going to win out. I don't want/need a 4x4, but the more upright sitting position - more the ease of entering/leaving the vehicle are what are attracting me at the moment, but I don't want a Berlingo!  Might have a look at the new Picasso though.

Seems to have done the job! Long live Edd's Shures! At what point do they no longer become earphones, and are simply referred to as electrical tape?

From a Virgin Media survey:You'd need to be absolutely desperate, wouldn't you?

That would be 20 pounds for 1GB in Oz with a use it or lose it in 30 days approach. Edit - Unused credit should carry over if you recharge in time, but never did for me. Complaining never got a result either and it was the only option that fitted my lifestyle.

A mouse has arrived from the internet. Packaging size around 6*15*20cm. Pointless extra box packaging 25*40*60cm with the mouse in its own box taped to the bottom How did they think that was a good Idea? The original packaging was good enough for just wrapping the damn thing in brown paper FFS...
