Heard this week that friend of mine was killed in a car accident this week - the cause of death was not the accident itself but the airbag. What happened was that she was a passenger in her sons car and had her handbag on her lap - when the airbag deployed the handbag was forced under her ribcage, breaking some ribs, which resulted in a punctured heart and other internal organ damage. The son survived with minor bumps and bruises. So the advice is - don't have anything on your knee if traveling as a passenger in the front seat of a car with airbags. Safe motoring everyone...........................................

following on from the reclassification of the humble teacake to a 'cake', and someone sending me this fantastic link: http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com/ i got wondering what really defines what is a biscuit and what is a cake... yeah i know some say if it goes hard when stale its a cake and when it goes soft when stale its a biscuit, but surely its not as simple as that. maybe something that's ready to eat in one piece is a biscuit (which would keep teacakes in the biscuit category and therefore unfortunately still VATable), and something that you need to slice away from a larger object is a cake. warning: ive not thought this through to completion... what does…

Was looking at a sensible replacement for my zed and have been looking at a few T6 Volvo S80's. Did a search on here to see if the was any info and found a pic of Vinnyboys old car that matched one is saw on ebay.
