Okay … I would like to sell my new Nissan 350z, due to a massive change in circumstances (i.e. working around the country a bit more and having a girlfriend who lives 100 miles away in Birmingham) and I would like to get something more economical - a Golf Diesel will do! Anyway … I picked up a brand new 350z (my 3rd one, they are awesome cars!) in January and am now looking to sell it already. Details: Midnight Blue 350z 58-plate (but 2009 registered) 313 BHP (i.e. the latest engine and model) GT Pack (250 watt Bose sound system, with 6 disk CD changer, cruise control, heated seats all the usual good stuff) 18 inch Rays alloys 350z floor and boot mats 10 months road tax Almost 3 years warranty 2,700 miles on clock Black leather seats Air con Stability control Integrated Bluetooth phone system (steering wheel controls) £21,500 It's a £31k car, and in the current climate you're able to pick one up new from a dealer for about £24.5k (as I did), so I think the price is fair. Please reply on the thread if you're interested - if you don't have PM, I'll get my number/e-mail address to you via the admins (if they don't mind - Steve/Baj??) Thanks.

Drove up to my gf's house in Birmingham on Thursday evening after work, took 5 hours, stayed there until lunch today, drove to my parent's which took 4.5 hours, family "do" tomorrow ... work on Tuesday, hopeful new job news - so all good! :-)

No, no, no, no and none. Won't be changing either.

Wow, massive respect!! More and more things I read are making me smile - the spirit of Southampton really has been awoken.

Wow, really, 15? That's incredible!! Fingers crossed ...

Exactly the response.

If you have guests, yes, but my lounging trousers of choice are always jogging bottoms, long shorts, or even boxers (depending on circumstances).

Linen trousers are great, I have several pairs with various very lightweight shirts to go with them. It's almost time to get them hung back up in the wardrobe and the jumpers folded away!

I was going to order myself a couple for the gym (and get a free ticket, bonus!!), but they only have XL upwards online. Shame - guess that means normal sizes are sold out?

Good God no. There's a reason you split up, I couldn't imagine anything worse than "going back" B*llocks to that, the future is too good to go back and have what you had before. What a hideous thought! Onwards and upwards, you can only get better ;-)

No. As I've said before, "climate change" is an excuse for humans to be selfish and preserve their future on the Earth. Why should they? Who cares? In 1000 years, hopefully humans will be wiped out and another, new, species shall rule the Earth. The Earth doesn't excusively belong to the human species ... so, who cares? I don't. Don't give a toss if humans are wiped out by an overly warm, or overly cold planet that doesn't actually belong to us. And don't get me started on all thse bloody bandwagon jumping celebrities, bunch of c*nts.

It depends, if you have really skinny arms and have ribs showing, then yeah, you probably are too skinny. But you can be small without looking skinny, which is all good :-)

Indeed, new lady friend is 5'4 and a size 6/8 ... mmmmm Me ... 34W 32L. Two years ago, I was 40W 32L ... :-|

We all had to take a 10% rate cut this week, however on the positive side, I've recently got a fantastic lady in my life. So it all balances out!

Interesting, I thought they were about the same, but I won't argue, but what I do know is that Turkey is cheaper - which isn't a bad thing when you eat as much bloody chicken as I do!!!!

Hmmm, slight problem - if you're a veggie, you need to get extra protein from somewhere else you really won't build yourself up. I'm not sure if most protein shakes are suitable or not? Personally I think they taste foul, even the chocolate bars which is why I eat shed loads of extra chicken instead. Failing that, you've always got eggs and baby food - both work!!

Because you're doing it wrong. With weights, you need a very heavy session. Pick a weight you can do 3 sets of 12 with. With up to a minute between sets. Do this (for example) with a bicup curl. Then do the same with something the dumbell kick back for your triceps, pick a few routines you like. Then, go back and start again - do all the same, 3 sets of 12. The next day your muscles should hurt. This is good. You have torn the fibres and they will repair, slightly larger (but not yet noticeable) to cope with the demand on the body. If you eat more protein (so an extra chicken breast) this will encourage faster and bigger muscle growth. Do NOT work on that muscle group that day. Sometimes a 2 day break is needed. If you go to a gym, the ideal is upper body 1 day (plus cardio), lower body the next day (plus cardio), with core muscle workout alternate days too. If you do the same routines every day, you end up with diminishing returns and almost negative muscle growth. So, alternate days. Also, don't believe that doing 3 sets of 5 reps on a much heavier weight will work, it won't. 10-12 reps is the most beneficial number of reps for muscle growth. Oh, and if you're moving your neck and back as you move the weight up and down (for example on a bicep curl), the weight is too heavy and you'll damage your neck and/or back eventually. It should be a smooth movement of the arm, only. You can thank me when you look as tonned and in shape as me

Steve - without wanting to teach you to suck eggs (but you know me, and expect it anyway, haha) ... simple solutions are: - Close ALL other forums apart from the main forum during a match - Make the main forum log in only during a match / all the time - Remove banners/avatars at peak times / all the time to lessen the server load of bytes dished up upon refresh etc. Generally, I find the forum over functional. All I want to do is read comments about the match if I'm not there, I don't want to play games, look at people's f*cking rubbish avatars, look at bloody smilies, send PMs and so on.

Reading those comments, my laptop is sticky ... Fair play, great reading, sounds like we are playing with real confidence and skill and sounds like a very different team to the one a month ago ... excellent!

Believing the internet dictionary is one of the reasons grammar has gone to pot. If you believe that, then read this: http://i-shrugged.blogspot.com/2008/02/into-or-in-to.html It's just as believable as the one you found, which is incorrect. You can reword the statement to read similar to; "he laid in, to Gordon Brown". But the comma is not needed, however it helps to show why the use of 'into' is incorrect in this instance when you read the statement properly. Bye.

Don't try and be clever when you're wrong. Now go and look up the definition and use of "into" and "in to". "In to" is associated with doing something. So by laying in to Gordon Brown, he's doing something, rather than "into" which would make no sense when used in that context. Yes; his comment about lorry drivers was hilarious. Are you a lorry driver perhaps? How many have you murdered recently?

Yes quite! I can't stand this latest craze of bashing Ross for everything, it's the Daily Mail/Express lot no doubt who cry out; Why have immigrants come here and dug up Princess Di?

Why do you think people care what you're doing over the weekend? How sad.

Well I think Clarkson is superb and very funny man who is perfectly entitled to lay in to Brown. I'm in my 30s (note that 30s doesn't need an apostrophe like you're wrongly using) and I have no intention of driving an "Evo".

Wotte a kunt.
