Anything over 3 years old has to be tested yearly over here for a wild variety of things:


Lighting and signalling equipment
Steering (including suspension)
Brakes
Tyres and wheels
Seat belts
Body, structure and general items[clarification needed]
Exhaust, fuel and emissions
Driver's view of the road

Here even some individual counties have different rules, I don't know if the state decided that rural counties don't need an emissions check or what but I could easily register a vehicle to my vaca spot on the island (same state different county) and would not need the test.

Up on the island there is no law enforcement presence from Labor day to Memorial day, things like driving laws tend to go right out the window. You'll often see kids as young as 10-12 driving the family golf cart on public roads. (carts are inspected and plated like any motor vehicle). Pretty much the small presence of residents look after themselves.

About 5 years ago the state decided they all needed to be legal vehicles. Signals, headlights, seatbelts, inspections and plates. The cart rental companies on the islands had a fit having to pay to get thousands of carts upgraded and licensed.

You would be surprised what a bunch of drunken kids can do with one, Roll them over, play smash em up with multiple carts,etc... most of the rental carts are governed to 15-20MPH but that's still fast enough to cause some damage to people or property. Last spring some Yahoos took out half a dozen very old grapevines belonging to the local winery, can't really put a value on the damage as they were irreplaceable.

I tried Bridgestone for the first time on my truck. These had a 65,000 mile warranty, so I figured I'd give them a shot. Got about 6,000 miles on them so far, and they handle great in the rain and on gravel roads. Good dry traction too.

The problem with wife's car is the odd ball size. 225/45/19. Not a popular size so pricing is more than normal. The original tires were Goodyear RSA that were horrible, and only lasted 25,000 miles. I went with Continental DWS in a 245/50/19 and got about 45,000 miles out of them, and loved the way they drove and handled.

It was looking a bit quieter yesterday but that soon changed :lol: Just getting sick of people making fuck-ups which end up costing me time :lol:


Got my new SSD installed on sunday - went with the samsung :thumbsup: Running nice and fast now :tup: Signed up to another ISP about ten days ago (previous ISP was great but unfortunately had a download limit of 30gb during peak times - never used to go close to the limit at all but after getting netflix i hit the limit last month :lol: Moved to BT unlimited) and the transfer date was yesterday. Came home at lunchtime and was going to log in to my work email account to get a better look at some crash images i'd been sent.......... but no internet access :wha: Checked my email on my phone and BT had sent me an email to say the transfer had been completed.......... only the muppets hadn't sent me the router settings :roll: I suppose most folk who sign up to them just take the option of the BT Home Hub which will already be set-up and just plug and play - they wanted an extra £20 or so for it so i said i'd just use my own since it's a pretty new one anyway and better specs than their one. Anyway, couldn't be arsed phoning them and speaking to some clown in India who's reading from a script so sent them a nicely worded email from work :lol: Seemed to do the trick, they replied with the router settings within 20 mins or so :tup:

Haven't had a chance to grab Breaking Bad yet though :freakout:

Nice, did you get better speeds too or just unlimited data?

The new BB was awesome as usual :tup:

Goofy
09-24-2013, 11:42 AM
My speeds are pretty much maxed out due to our broadband still being on the old copper lines :( Unlimited data, cheaper than my previous ISP plus i get the two BT Sports tv channels free now too :tup: Was always afraid to change ISP previously since it took me quite a few attempts to find a good, reliable one - would've stayed with them if they could've given me unlimited data but alas they said they couldnt :( They did offer me a couple of great deals but i really need the unlimited data now for netflix!

Well, back from the Doctor. Intestinal virus all cleared up now. While I was there, got checked out for heartburn. It's been almost constant lately (after eating or alcohol) Doctor didn't do the scope down my throat. At this point he just recommended trying to limit intake of what is bothering me, but mostly try to reduce the size of my gut/waist, which is putting pressure on my stomach, causing the valve to leak.
So, looks like I'll be trying to find, at least to start with, a low impact regime to get to the point where I can start getting back in shape. I'm thi8nking about starting with the basics, push ups, sit ups, etc.

:lol: Kev, that shaolin "yi jin jing" (muscle-tendon changing) practice actually starts out with slapping the gut just below the navel. Not hard slap to start out with, but the intensity slowly increases with the training...extrapolate to the point of withstanding spears in the throat hahaha...but the early stages can be effective without going too deeply into the training to the point where tools and hard hits are used.

As such, things like jumping jacks, shaking, even abdominal breathing will help get rid of the gut. Crunches, leg lifts, twists...all good stuff. Actually the abdominal breathing would be a low level assist for the heartburn, moving the diaphragm properly gives the internal organs a good massage. Cardio helps but if you dont focus on the core exercise then it wont necessarily target that area....target what you want to target.

If you want to add in diet crazy, try doing the 2 week induction phase for something like atkins? where you strip all carbs and sugars out. The carbs if not used are the most quickly converted to abdominal fat.

Good luck homey! I am always vigilant where the gut is concerned, my back is too precarious for me to gain weight, it will hurt, and relatively quickly if I gain even 5 pounds in the gut.

The pro players charge money for exhibition nights, they'll come up to your pub or club, set up a full stage with dartboard, tvs, cameras etc and you get a pro MC to call the matches. They typically play 20 legs of 501 vs audience members and do trick shots etc - been to a couple before and they're fucking great nights :lol: Beaton is meant to be one of the best for it, great with the crowds etc and a great laugh so should be a cracking night provided we decide to go for it :)
