Try Google, here's one example: http://www.halfords.com/motoring-travel/tools-diy/tools-tool-kits/laser-locking-wheel-nut-remover Then buy a new set of locking nuts and make sure you don't lose this one (My auto-type had put 'licking nuts'. These are something complete different.)

Thanks, nice to meet you too I thought you looked hard enough to take it

Wednesday is Champions League day. Next season you may feel differently about it.

That 'dead relative's money' is theirs to do with how they wish. If you want to steal it for yourself or anybody else why don't you get a gun and go and do it now? Inheritance tax is grave robbery, nothing else.

That poor girl Her clothes are all tatty. Perhaps we should all club together and buy her some more.

This forum is great! We've just got back home and in two minutes I can skim through a complete summary of Question Time without having to watch it Wake me up when the election is over.

Anything is more interesting than the election. I find myself -2.0, -3.95 but there were a couple of questions where I wasn't quite sure how to answer, too many double negatives. 'A significant advantage of a one-party state is that it avoids all the arguments that delay progress in a democratic political system' for example. I may agree that there is an advantage from the party's point of view but if I strongly disagree that anybody should have a one-party state...?

Morgan out until the end of the season

Good point. 7th and 13th which may be a bit soon for him. -

Let's look on the bright side. It's not serious ligament damage and if it's only 4 or 5 weeks then he should be fit for pre-season or a European tour. Whether that's with us or somebody elase remains to be seen. -
I was thinking about that earlier and I can't for the life of me see how I come out almost exactly in the middle. Perhaps we should all do this test again?

Or vote for the canditate rather than the party. Find a good one and let them represent you.

A man under pressure.
-
Quite so. My view is that the country would have been in a better situation to handle the crash if there had not been the reckless overcommitment to public spending. Labour had gambled on continous growth and lost.

Or coming into the country.

There was bit in The Times today about survival after promotion. 'Clubs who come up with a plan stand a chance. It is those who do not - the ones who build sides specifically for promotion, then make a raft of signings, panic, and appoint Harry Redknapp midway through the campaign - who tend not to last.' Bournemouth, they claim, have such a plan, as did Stoke, Swansea and us
-
Indeed we do, even more so if we are in Europe.

Yes yes, all very good, but can any of them play in goal?
-
Crikey I know he's had a lot of women but keeping that lot happy is quite an achievement
-
Er, let me think.... NO!
-
Yes but most of those were shoves into the chests of the opposition.
-
Doesn't actually say much.
-
I find that hard to believe, very hard. If true then that is very disturbing. They can't all be in the UK, surely?
-
Top 4 chance now gone? Europa Thoughts?

My one small concern is that during the four games left some of the opposition for Liverpool and Tottenham might be already on the beach. Of course being a saints fan I always assume that our opponents are fired up for every game. -
I went to SF a couple of times in the 1980s and we had a couple of days stopover in LA a year or so ago. We had a car in SF and ten days so we did about 1800 miles and I can recommend: Yosemite - an absolute must. If you do nothing ekse, do this. http://www.nps.gov/yose/index.htm Muir Woods giant redwoods are interesting. http://www.nps.gov/muwo/index.htm Sonoma valley and Napa Valley. I was recommendeded the Simi winery http://www.simiwinery.com/ Monterey, Carmel, Pebble Beach and the 17-Mile Drive are beautiful. http://www.pebblebeach.com/activities/explore-the-monterey-peninsula/17-mile-drive The giant sequoias are worth seeing, there are a couple of groves. http://www.fs.usda.gov/sequoia/ I wanted to go to Bodie but didn't have time http://www.bodie.com/ In SF the Bay Cruise and Alcatraz Columbia Gold rush Town http://www.visitcolumbiacalifornia.com/ In one day we drove SF - Modesto - Yosemite - Carson City - Reno - Sacramento - SF but our stops were limited by a slow puncture just inside Nevada. The 10-day visit was in March and the weather was like an English summer, all sunshine and green grass. I went back in June and all the grass was parched and it was much drier. In LA all we had time for was a one-day city tour doing Venice Beach, Downtown, Old Los Angeles, Sunset Boulevard and the homes of the famous. Do your research and you'll have a great time. California is a lovely place and I would love to go back for longer. Have fun!

Please elaborate, I know this stuff gets repeated all the time but I'd like to see some frinstances.
