Wouldn't wish it on anyone! Had it post botched (or at least failed) ear op in the early 2000s. Intense vertigo/nausea for 3 months and tinnitus for around 2 years. Not entirely sure what made it go away - or perhaps become less prominent to the point it was no longer a constant source of...

Went out twice last week on my winter bike (hardtail MTB)...it was DIY built and not that well in places but the slush and grit definitely took their toll on the bike (rusty chain, loose BB and even louder brakes). To be fair it probably came through the test better than I did! I share Begbies...

Used to rate gumtree for shifting bikes but, as others have said the market seems to be really stagnant right now with many ads seemingly up for months. Even those bikes and bits that are reduced over time don't appear to be shifting that easily unless really keenly priced. That's probably the...

Skoda Octavia vRS seems to tick a few of the original boxes quite well - not sure what 3k will get you at the moment though

Track pump always worked for me on Specialized and Maxxis tyres for 4 years but recently switched to a Conti and it just would not seat properly. I ended up digging out a co2 cartridge kit thing I bought from Aldi but never had cause to use. Worked an absolute treat just for that initial burst...

It's a revelation...I'll never go back. Some of the things that I've found in/through my tires these past 4 years prove just how good it is (and how many punctures I would have had!). I went with Stans but the initial outlay can be a bit offputting for sure

Had one Teams interview...full office dress top half (shirt, tie, suit jacket) lounge pants and slippers. No blurry background but some strategic tidying, angling of the webcam and good light. CV and notes on another screen. Interviewer did have a blurred background and confessed it was...

Gut wrenchingly eloquent account of something no dog owner wants to go through but the majority have to. Heart goes out to you and your family - it's abundantly clear how much you loved him and he you. You did the right thing. The last thing you want is for him to be in pain and distress...

I did exactly that back in September. Felt wrong in a way as I've always bought privately and always had a test drive previously but we agreed up front that if I arrived to pick it up and it wasn't right in any way then I would walk (and be refunded). I had paid for it in full up front too -...

I just bought an 18 plate Golf R estate last month...and I was also considering the RS4. I spent the best part of a year looking at everything from the Hyundai i30N to Merc C63s but couldn't make up my mind. I kept being torn between the ideal of getting a vaguely practical and potentially...

Picked up my '18 R wagon on Thursday. Coming from a 56 plate Octavia vRS it feels like I've changed centuries with the 7.5 active info etc! Still in the honeymoon period but took it down some really challenging roads last night and got an insight into the limitations of the suspension/chassis...

Lotus Elise if you can find a decent one within budget. Possibly a Boxster S as I think the demand for 6 cylinders will drive them back up..maybe

Mine live in my garage - bar my 1982 Skyway T/A X/L bmx which has pride of place on the wall in my house :D As for e-bikes...I have to say I'm a traditionalist but I find myself increasingly drawn to the idea of having something that would encourage me to just go out and freestyle 40 or 50...

Once a month tops...40-50 quid a pop for a family of three

Another vote for Pet Plan here. Used them for 3 cats and 3 dogs so far with no issues. They'll deal directly with vets and no issue with any of our claims

Cheers for that as well! I think that's enough for me to bite..nice one bud

Cheers! That's something new to play for the weekend at least

I'm in the same boat post Alyx....Saints and Sinners is the one that I keep being drawn to but not yet pulled the trigger as some comments suggest it's been discounted before and I'm a tight Scotsman! Some of the first person shooter multi player ones look alright but not enough to actually buy...

MTB for me! Own both and enjoy the rare time out on the road bike for pure speed but my MTB is just more versatile. Saying that, I try and cycle 4 times a week and do between 80-110 miles on a full sus bike but my route is about 50/50 road and fire road so the bike is total overkill (if not...

Yeh I tried to get more info out of them on chat too and they weren't willing to give me anything definite at all
