Amateur stuff. My Megane will easily achieve 9mpg on a spirited run. It'll do 40mpg if I drive like the missus though.

Good lad. You do realise that's completely out of context though, yeah?

You do realise Asbestos is fireproof, no?

Oh come on, there's loads of points to cats. They have a great hand in: Reducing the awful indigenous bird population to reduce bird crap incidents. Spreading toxoplasmosis to help keep the NHS in business. Defecating on other people's property to keep lawns fertilised. Keeping upholsterers and haberdashers in business by giving curtains/furnishings an effective 'shelf-life'. Keeping humans alert by turning on them with no notice whilst being stroked. Keeping roadside recovery vehicle operators in business by causing road accidents from walking/running out into traffic. The list is virtually endless for our furry friends.

Anyone put "cats" yet? It could be the clue the Weston Super Mare police need.

Your house must smell lovely.

Not really the comment I was looking for The gecko is about 2 inches (excluding its tail) so hardly like a crocodile on my hand...

May I suggest that cats are kept indoors country-wide as a precaution. You can't be too careful.

I'm going to keep posting this picture until someone comments on it... lol

I'm surprised at you.

Have discovered they are also thirsty as hell and subject to trim displacement, i.e. bits fall off at random I'd consider looking again.

Thank you TR.

You can't really blame him for that, Webber squeezed him out there in, what many consider to be, a reckless and very dangerous manoeuver. If someone had been leaving the pits I shudder to think of the consequences. Webber had no chance of defending his position in the RB4, with shot tyres, against the fastest car on the track. Pushing Massa towards the wall was idiocy. And I like Webber!

As internet wars go that was a bit gentlemanly and civilised for my liking.

So much hate. Shame.

Why would you consider it anyway then?

Being serious for a minute; do you actually think people would travel more if fuel was cheaper? I don't. We go where we have to go and when we have to do it. Regardless of your choice of transport - car, bus, train, plane - all would be cheaper if fuel was cheaper but i don't think people would suddenly start taking the long route home from work or just taking that exciting bus detour. Some people would argue that high fuel costs have a 'green' effect but I don't believe that for a second. They just leave us all with less disposable income.

The only Greek word I know is malaka but that won't get him very far.

Actually, I meant to revisit this post and I take it back about Hamilton's penalty. Yes, he drove like an arse and he's going to **** the championship away if he keeps it up but it was actually Kovalainen who pushed Kimi off the track and not Hamilton. I guess the stewards can justify it by saying that Hammy's massive lock-up caused the whole thing but drivers have been locking up at the first corner of a GP for decades. So, having reviewed the footage, I'm convinced the penalty was OTT.

I'm sure that's right, but you can Google car tax bands to check. I'll ask a few questions about day to day ownership tomorrow.

I think pre 2001 vehicles just fall into the sub and over 1600cc categories. The higher is around £175 a year (it might be £185, not sure) and nowhere near the £400 raping most big-engined SUV/MPV owners will be facing.

I'd get over the irresponsibility of paying 43p a litre pretty quickly.

A guy at work has one. I'll ask some pertinent questions tomorrow. It's fair to say it's pretty spacious!
