Here, here.

Everybody loves a conspiracy. I don't know if our American cousins are stupid enough to elect Palin as President, but the fact it's mentioned scares me more than when Bush got re-elected, how much damage could she do in a term?

I wouldn't blame any club for disliking Saints, let's face it, we do have alot of plums supporting us with all the 'inferiority complex' and 'sleeping giant' quotes they like to band around.

The Russians are a front for a cockney gangster.

RIP Jack - You pain in the arse ;-)

Cranfield is the mutt's nuts for engineering.

Not a hard decision academically. http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/table/2010/jun/04/university-guide-art-and-design

Some good news, apparently no burger vans or food establishments that serve from 'catering vans' this year, all food outlets are to be of the tented variety and have to offer sheltered seating. Not sure if true but good if so. I would imagine the Cider Bus will be OK!

Possibly the greatest scriptwriter in British Television. RIP and thanks for the laughs. Del falls through bar hatch

I was surprised by the nudity as well, not that i'm against it. Justified series 2 starts on Five USA tonight.

Imagine - John Lennon, bloody pacifists.

Try http://www.southalltravel.co.uk i've used them three times when booking flights to Australia and they've always found the best deals. I input dates of 10/01 -24/01 and it came back with £705 each inc.taxes via Schippol (Amsterdam) from Heathrow.

I have noticed that occasionally Radio 5 has a clicking noise every 10 seconds or so or loses signal for a micro-second, its bloody annoying and only happens on Radio 5.

Here's a link to show some work he did this weekend. Adam the Detailer

OK, the bloke who got back in touch with me details are - 07531 147646 Ask for Adam, he comes highly recommended by a respected Mercedes specialist in Horndean and a few other forum members with quite expensive cars, can't beat a recommendation IMHO

The long range forecast i heard last week was for a wet June! Let's hope they're wrong as usual.

Ignore the last two, i've now found somebody local who comes highly recommended by two people i know on the Mercedes scene, i'm just waiting for his contact details to be passed along.

I've got it in my head that they've moved to the crossroads by the main drag towards the West Holts stage.

I think its where the Hare Krishna tent used to be, kind of to the side of the Other Stage towards the Glade (but i could be wrong)!

I may have found a few detailers who cover Southampton for you. Bear in mind it won't be cheap. refineddetail envyvaleting

Not an expert at all, just have taken an interest due to my car needing a respray due to rust. I'm led to believe that silver, black and metallics are very hard to match when spraying, but speak to a detailer and see what they have to say. If you're intending on keeping the car and considering its age it maybe worth saving up and having a proper bare metal respray done, it really depends on how attached to the car you are?

If it doesn't clear up with anti-biotics then go back to the doctor as i was treated for 4 months with a chest infection which actually turned out to be a double pneumonia which nearly killed me, i ended up spending 18 days in hospital over Christmas in QA. Not fun.

The professionals have access to much better equipment and materials than any amateur can, find out if you have a really good car detailer near to you and ask them for a quote. It will be cheaper than a respray and will probably achieve the level of finish you need, a good one will spend all day and will wash, clay and polish the car to a finish better than when new if possible. I know of at least one supercar dealer who gets a detailer to go over brand new from the factory cars because the paintwork isn't up to scratch. (excuse the pun).

On a Mercedes forum i'm a member of they think a decent complete respray is at least £2k, are you sure you need a respray? Unless you're repairing accident damage most paintwork can be brought back to life with a mop and polish. If you decide you want to get a quote then don't mention respray, tell them what you want to achieve and they'll let you know the best option. As for time i think around 5-10 days is about right.

I assume you're taking the **** and realise i was taking the **** out of people who think a Beefeater is expensive, here's hoping!
