R30 is identical to R28 but has shot peened internals, AFAIK

Even the sodding radio appears to have taken some Diazepam, miserable songs on every channel. I'm needing a bit of Drum'n bass to see me through the last hours of work

Debt as a percentage of gdp was 114% in 2020, it was 240% after the Second World War. We got by, because everyone else was in the same position, as most are now.

If the yanks had really wanted to help they could have let us off. ::) ::)

Are we still paying it back?

Last payment was made in 2006 I think !

I've probably got one somewhere in the stash if you don't get sorted

I've recently solved a similar idle issue with a Honda Jazz, the Idle control vale gets stuck partially open due to gunk so the revs rise and fall, this video shows the fix and it was fairly simple to do

I got an email warning off my insurance company yesterday telling me that the cat on my car is "Desirable" , to be honest it's the only desirable part of a Honda Jazz

Certain Vauxhall and Volvo cats are worth nearly £500 scrap
WOW  :o
I'll have to see what is stamped on the cats but they are OEM original
there's a company called WARR who give good prices so I'm told .
But, of course, scrap dealers are obliged to ask for the identity of anyone who weighs one in  ::)
I'm not having an identity crisis  :o
I have ID, driving licence, passport etc  :P
I could probably even get Mrs Builder to dig out the relevant paperwork for ownership and scrapping of the cars  ;)

Good way of valuing them is to search the codes in sold items on ebay, happy to have a look for you if you get me the codes

I have an old Honda Jazz, the cat on it's own is worth more than the car as a whole  ;D

I've got 4 Astra G cats ,taken off cars i've scrapped , plus a  2000 Sh!troen picasso HDI one
might see what they are worth after Covid restrictions

If they are GM45 you might be surprised, selling at circa £400 a piece

First thing is tell no one, I'd wait until there was an anonymous winner of around 5 million and tell my family I'd won that so they can set their expectations of my generosity on that sum. 180 million is a ludicrous amount of money

Second thing would be a month long holiday somewhere warm to get my head together

Third would be to build the best Art Deco house ever to grace these shores

Fourth would be to recreate the "Patrick collection" from the 80's

Fifth , I'd buy the wife a new handbag  ;D

Wider ambition with a sum that great would be to build a small housing estate that would be gifted in trust to the local children's hospice and the rental income generated would cover all of their running costs for the next 50 yrs

I'm fortunate to be still working flat out right through this but am feeling frustrated/p*ssed off through my weekend time off as there's little I can do, this leads to me not getting a proper rest. I was fortunate to get my first Pfizer jab in mid Dec due to working in the NHS, we had some updated info on Friday from our clinical lead that the first jab gives up to 89% protection from serious Covid infection which I found reassuring.

I don't drop in here much these days but hope you and the family are all good Ste!

some of the oldies in the family had letters
book on-line or phone 119
BUT
the Pfiser jab roll out people where advised NOT to have it if they had allergic reactions in the past
the website states .....
"What happens at your appointment.... bla bla bla ....
Allergic reactions
Tell healthcare staff before you are vaccinated if you've ever had a serious allergic reaction (anaphylaxis).

You should not have the vaccine if you've ever had a serious allergic reaction to:

a previous vaccine
a previous dose of the same COVID-19 vaccine
some medicines, household products or cosmetics"


why get people to turn up and then ask the question  >:(

pointless journey if you can't have it anyway ,and could potentially catch covid going to the unnecessary appointment, wasted appointment that someone could use , wasted vaccine dose if they don't find someone else for it  :(
 
My Mum has previously had allergic reaction to penicillin (flucloxacillin) and other drugs

going to get her to phone the GP and ask (data protection ,so I can't) , then possibly/probably cancel the appointment
looking at the literature the astra zeneca vaccine is fine ,and can be done at a local surgery rather than have to take her to "Birminam"

Shouldn't be any drama with a penicillin allergy, Pfizer one seem's very safe as we've been wacking it into everyone and nobody has had any reactions..... yet
