As my regular readers will know :), I am having all sorts of financial fun at the moment. Cutting to the chase, I need a sensible valuation on Mak because the value determines whether it is a bankruptcy seizable asset or just my transport: S (98) T2 (UK Type 2) 2.4i SE in very good condition...

I've seen variations of this question & replies for a while now, and as a far from expert, the only opinion I have comes from running a 520bhp 2.6l twin turbo for a few years, plus a strange piece of advice I saw an Aussie 4x4 forum (which I promptly forgot to bookmark). I did and do not use...

Looks like fun was had by all, apologies for missing it but gotta tax the beast this week, so petrol funds diverted.

While clearing the house found some leftovers from my Skyline days... But the original Prince shield decal just had to go on Mak. (Yes, there are 1000 anorak points for people who know the relevance of that without resorting to Gurgle or Prickipedia).

Given the serious shit some people are surviving, it's almost embarrassing... Financials continue to decline. Mortgage company moving for repossession. House on market. Still no job. Mother confirmed with dementia. Thus with no job I cannot afford a place to rent to get out of house when it's...

Facebook is to security what swiss cheese is to solid.... Twitter is only really worth consideration for business or if you actually have something people may be interested in. Facebook on your mobile, Twitter becomes redundant. I have a facebook profile, it's under a fictional name and...

Tea, strong brew Assam, splash milk, no sugar. Live on coffee (white 'n' 2 or white with vanilla syrup). Carte Noir at home, whatever I can get out & about. Cafe Nero by choice.

Apart from the six month previous to declaration asset transfer and concealment checks. They are getting stubborn.

briggie & extreme-4x4, thanks. It's a situation partially of my own devising, and in the end no-one dies. But it seems that IVA & bankruptcy are off the cards as the miserable buggers will want to take Mak off me, just after I've finished sorting him. They can have me house but they're not...

Isn't it so good to know that in these times of finacial crisis, some people still have the disposable income to destroy a Lamborghini as casually as if it were some scrapped old banger. I'm sitting here with the paperwork for my house going on the market, as an alternative to repossession...

A real friend will tell you what you NEED to hear. Not what you WANT. You have done that. If he's as good a mate as you say, he will eventually come round, especially as I detect and element of his missus meddling with his good sense.

Hmmm. You want to kick back for a few months with a games system. Personally, I'd say PS3. The blu ray player onboard is still one of the best and still one of the few upgradable players. Game choice I have to say that from my limited exposure, Xbox has the titles. I am an infrequent gamer...

I am a bibliophile by nature and years of practice, but considered a Kindle at the end of last year. In the end, the fact that you had to send Amazon any PDFs you needed to read decided me against, as I have over 30,000 PDFs. So I got a secondhand Sony PRS 600 Touch of ebay. It'll never...

Congrats, folks. Thoroughly deserved.

Tracker not really worth the effort for a decent one, IMHO. Steering wheel lock? Disklok all the way. Do not consider anything else. Visible deterrents are the way. Nothing will stop 'em if they want it, but making it look like a pain to nick means they will go for an easier target. Sad but true.

On the grounds that it is listed as a comedy, I would have to presume not.

AlZip from the Altools suite. The absolute business. 60 day trial is free and I have used it for up to a year without issues.

I'm sorry, you thought they were trying to give something back to their loyal customers?

Titanic could have a sequel, after all, the core story was a flashback. Sadly, most films can have a sequel if it is profitable. There are a lot of films that shouldn't have had a sequel :)

Dichotomy Strangely, both of these apply... http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=GB&v=DvvkB9hTAHg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYAYq9fbCqs
