General Discussion Area / hinge type screw cover

« on: 29 December 2022, 17:28:09 »

recently i purchased two new number plates as my old ones have the E.U  flag  on them  & sometime in 2023 I intend a trip to Enschede , Holland. this might seem trivial but now we have the Union Jack the screw holes on the L/H side correspond with Union flag which needs a red hinge screw cap,  all the main car parts supply companies are just offering white, yellow, black & blue. I could not get a red,  did say it is trivial

General Car Chat / fault codes

« on: 27 November 2022, 20:57:07 »

I have tried the french car forums both citreon & ds without luck,  my eml is on & urea warning appeared momentarily, topped it up & it took 15ltrs to fill the tank. initially eml disappeared but has returned.  i will have a look tomorrow & delete any codes, but it would be handy to know if any codes appear what they mean,

General Discussion Area / suspended Irish teacher

« on: 07 September 2022, 15:56:42 »

apparently, an Irish teacher got himself suspended for refusing to call a pupil by a name that the pupil wished to be called 
 by & instead of accepting his paid leave suspension he went to school & sat in an empty classroom stating that he was there to work. however he was arrested & jailed by a judge until he agrees to bide by the courts ruling. the pupil in question is a transgender so it was a pronoun issue & the teacher would not call the pupil by the chosen female name.
