    Fishy...

    Cycling Q's

    For that kind of distance I think I would just walk it 5 mins on a bike would just seem to be a faff to me.... I guess you are quite serious about cycling if you want a turbo trainer, but I am also worried that you don't know that 700CC is the standard circumference of a road bike tyre (or 29...

    Verified by Visa....

    Shelster, I was also given the transaction codes for the two debits but Direct Line said that their system couldn't pick up those codes so they couldn't do anything. Nationwide also stated that they couldn't retrieve the funds until they are refused automatically by Direct Line and come back...

    Verified by Visa....

    Oh dear that must have been nerve racking it's bad enough when it's only £300!! The transaction itself hasn't showed up on my internet banking, as far as I understand it's in a middle ground between Nationwide and DL but more towards DL....I'll have to phone the bank again I think.

    Verified by Visa....

    Hi So, I tried to buy some house insurance through the famous red telephone company and got to the Verified by Visa page. I entered my password and it failed, so I wrote my password down to count the letters and input them into the form hit enter and was confronted by "This page cannot be...

    From 60MPH to 40MPH; Gov Proposals

    LOL, i think you can take a point over the line a bit....i think he was hinting at the fact if someone was driving right up your backside at 50 in a NSL you shouldn't feel rushed or flustered to go any faster. After all it's a maximum speed limit... It seems that you have a attitude that if...

    Petulant cyclist smacked my wing mirror

    Exactly :D In my experience half of the people recognise they can't do it and wait patiently, the other half over take regardless....

    Petulant cyclist smacked my wing mirror

    It's pretty out of order saying that you'd only made a minor mistake and you weren't exactly putting his life in immediate danger, i think i would have just given you the shake of the head treatment.... I often find it is car users overtaking cyclist which is more dangerous, so many times...

    Found my old Corsa for sale

    Ok i guess i just mean people may be envious that he bought a new car and was prepared to deal with the 10k depreciation. I suppose i was just trying to give the OP some support :p

    Found my old Corsa for sale

    I just don't see what the problem is, if someone buys a new car it WILL depreciate i would've hoped the OP knew this and worked into his financial plans over the next 3 years....ie he has to afford it.

    Found my old Corsa for sale

    All you guys are either jealous he can lose 10k on depreciation or conversley you should be happy that he has supplied the 2nd hand car market with another car.

    Mazda3 (2005-2006 era) - Opinions Sought

    I've got the 2.0 TS2 Sedan... I previously owned a 1.6 focus (mk1.5) and I prefer being in the mazda to the ford, mainly because it doesn't rattle so much and has auto air conditioning. Pretty similar handling to the mk2 focus which i didn't like as much as the mk1.5... I've put 20k on it...
