General Discussion Area / So what would you do.....

« on: 21 October 2008, 19:43:49 »

Driving home tonight, waiting to pull out of a side turning onto an A road & a group of about 8 kids aged between 12 & 15 cross the road behind me when one of them decides to kick the rear wing & walks off laughing. When i caught up with them the kid is about 12 & has a big attitude problem, starts effing & blinding so i grab him by the scruff of the neck & tell him how much i would like to run him over, only then do i realise after his mates start spitting & joining in, i think whatever i do i will be in the wrong so let him go. So what would you do in these circumstances & more to the point what can you do (legally)

your thoughts?

General Discussion Area / Poly wishbone bushes

« on: 29 July 2008, 16:32:52 »

Just got an E mail from a guy i spoke to yesterday about these bushes & they can make them up for us. Prices for 5 pairs of the larger front bush with crush tube work out at about £117 per pair & comes in 75-80 sure hardness, should take about 2-4 weeks, bit expensive i know but would last alot longer than standard ones, so anyone interested ?
