I've decided how i'm going to handle this. I mow her lawn for a favour when I do mine and that's gonna stop. The other day she mentioned she was gonna ask her son or the boy over the road to do it and at the time I thought no more of it, but have just realised it was a hint. Well that's done me. I don't take hints. Last year she asked her son to do it and he said he didn't know how to work her lawn mower (yeah right) so when I see her next i'm gonna mention that it'll help me out just having to do my own garden and that when her son comes over next give me a shout and i'll show him how to work the mover seeing how he didn't know how to work it when she asked him to do it last. And while i'm showing him how to work it i'll bring the subject of the vacum cleaner up.

I just brake. It sh/ts them out. And they do back off.
-
That's wrong. When i knock my car out of gear it ticks over at 1000 rpm and that saves fuel. It's noticeable on the trip computor that this is effective also.

That's a bonus. Once the rebels break out west then Gadaffi will be a severely weakened as those hitherto too scared to been seen to be against him join them. I saw an interview with a Libyan Brit and he welcomes the allied action and says 99% of Libyans hate Gadaffi and most of those we see in pro Gadaffi demos are forced there on pain of death.

I can say with complete honesty and sincerity that I couldn't care two hoots what you think about this campaign. Actually i'm enjoying the fact you don't like it.

From reports from experts we have pretty much already taken out his static air defences, although his radar systems still need to be neutralised. Then we need to disable his intelligence capabilities. The bombing of government buildings is essential. Of course there will be collateral damage, but this is the price the Libyans will have to pay if they want democracy.

Are you being deliberately thick? We need to knock out their static air defences in the first instance and then give their armed forces another good pummelling to safeguard our boys.

But you've still got to get some pleasure from driving. Yesterday for example I had Lorry behind me and the the driver was clearly getting angry as he kept trying to push me. It was great fun knocking the car out of gear just before the brow of a hill forcing him to lose all his revs. he he he.

This is not good.
-
F/ck that. I like to be able to see the road ahead, and they spray muck all over your car. If you do this and they have to suddenly brake you'll be lucky not to slam into the back of them. I know it's more fuel efficient but i'd never do it.

Charlton away Tuesday 22nd March tickets
dune replied to RonManager's topic in Saints Away Supporters
Just rang Charlton and asked if home tickets will be available on the night and she said yes. I then asked if you need to show a membership card or anything and she said no. We're in. -
Over 150 left at 9 am today.

I know, but I like having a full tank because that way if I have a long journey it's there and I don't have to put a lot in in one go. Also I regularly put redex in the tank to keep the injectors clean. Not sure if this helps or not. Also change the oil/filter every 3 months because in a turbo diesel you don't want old oil in the engine.
-
I keep my tank full, but by coasting the amount of miles available from a full tank has gone up from 700 to 750. As I poodle along on the open road from town driving it goes up noticeably compared to how I used to drive. Also don't see it as frustrating, enjoy doing it. It's great fun having Lorry drivers trying to push you along. Get your own back time.

With Diesel now costing about 140p/litre i've started driving by the rev counter and keep my rpm at around 1500 and knock the car out of gear on the crest of hills and let it roll down the other side. I now drive between 45 and 58 mph on A roads and on duel carriageways/motorways stick to about 60. I'm making quite big savings doing this. http://www.theaa.com/motoring_advice/fuels-and-environment/drive-smart.html Have you modified how you drive to save a few quid?

I like the way he's stuck his acid tab nice and handy on his frame.
