Have you been thinking about that reply for nearly 2 years mate? :D:D

You know I've heard Stella & Bacardi makes people grumpy and defensive ;)

:nono: Mine won't!

I think driving your first zed in the wet is good for teaching respect for it hehe. It rained solid for 2 weeks after I bought mine lol.

Can we have a method of breath testing forum members please, to stop them posting if they've had a skinful? ;) Maybe forum logo'd "breath-mice" could be issued to repeat offenders, the ball could retract when it detects alcohol. Or a sobriety test in addition to a logon, a steady hand test possibly. Any other ideas? Cheers ;) Pete

He was on sxoc yesterday :)

Yeah definately http://www.aht.ndirect.co.uk/airships/r32/ :p

2lb trout, nearly pulled me into the lake :D

Move your chair back a bit then :D

Who? :confused:

I think "post inches" should be used instead of "number of posts" :D Not including stupid sigs hehe

Me too!! Lionel Blair though.

Pour it away mate, that way your car is lighter and therefore quicker.

Never!! :D:rofl:

Blimey Leigh, I totally missed this. An old workmate at my last place quit work because he had it, and I'd never heard of it. You must have a brave face on a lot, big respect. Chin up mate, hope all goes well :) Pete

Couldn't be arsed to do any weight saving or drop the tyre pressure, due to the showery weather. [/excuse] Had 2 runs and got 14.5s @ 98mph on both so not bad :cool: I'm still getting slower 60ft times than my zed used to get for some reason :confused:

Yay! Sorted! Big big thanks to those above, Ken2, SRRAE, Jay, Rich666, MarkGSI :bow: Really thought I'd lost every picture I have of our son, and all my grounding kit bumf. Most of it is recovered fine, some corrupt files, and a mahoosive "lost files" folder to sort through lol Cheers Pete

Cheers Jay & Stu, that worked :cool: I'm just trying to find suitable software now to do the recovery - any ideas? The ones I keep finding have either not picked up anything on the HDD or have a tiny file size limit :( I'm also just waiting on a copy of Norton Antivirus to install on my temporary PC as a get about 5 minutes of BB connection before explorer gets butchered by internet nasties and I have to End Task and reboot :rolleyes: Jay thanks - for the kind offer :bow: I'll let you know if I dont get anywhere tonight :) Cheers Pete

Hi all Right, I'm on another pc and have tried the above but to no avail. Got the software fine though. We have hooked up my HD as a slave drive on this pc but although it is recognised as a HDD, it shows that it has not been formatted. On properties the total capacity shows as 0 bytes. I've tried on two different pcs, one with Windows 2000 and the other with XP. Both do the same. Have tried attaching it using the CD IDE cable, same result. Am I going to have to fork out a load of money for a specialist to sort it? Cheers Pete

Cheers boys - guess that's me offline for a couple of days then, I'll print this thread out and cross my fingers :) Should have a mate who can download what I need and bring his pc round Thanks Pete

Oh and it's Windows XP.

Evening :) Yesterday when I got home mrs shrimp had installed a Fimbles game from a CD onto the PC, to amuse our lad. She had installed it directly onto the desktop so there were files everywhere. Insead of moving the files myself, I uninstalled the program using the Remove Software utility in Control Panel. Big mistake. :cry: It deleted everything off the desktop :confused: I did a System restore to before the mrs installed the bloody Fimbles but only empty folders have reappeared - all their contents deleted :confused: I've searched for filenames I know of but nothing is found. My grounding kits order list/accounts, all the instructions, and tons of car/baby/family photos have gone. :cry: :confused: Not happy. I was only thinking of backing everything up the other day but didn't. Is there ANY way that they are hiding somewhere? Pleeeeeease?! Cheers Pete

LOL I mean your two little 'uns :rofl::D:D 12 zeds! :eek: Spoke to Ryan earlier about dates, thinking mid Sept, after your hol :cool: The crank bearings will be ordered tomorrow so that's it for the engine :dance:

Cheers greg, he had an ace day :cool: How are your two doing? :)
