You are NOT gonna believe this
Rich, By the sound of it you could have a fooked PTU! Unfortunatley I no, longer have a spare PTU, but I'm sure someone on here, and a bit closer to you, may very well help you out with one. Even if it's just a loan one to test this out. Put a post up in Help & Advice aswell, as it'll get noticed a bit more in there. I wish you luck with it, and don't dispare, it'll work out in the end :) All the best.

Bought myself a new toy.....
To the anoyance of my fellow Midlands Zedders at the Bubble meet recently, I neglected to bring my camera with me :headvswal I'd left it sat on the bed and completely forgot to pick it up :headvswal Well my little old Fuji A202, 2 Mega Pixel, Non-Zoom is going into retirement now, as I've just bought a replacement :D ......................... This little beauty.......................... It's the Fuji S9500 Zoom, 9 Mega Pixel, 28-300mm Zoom lens. It's a nice bit of kit, and I can't wait to try it out at all the shows next year :cool: Also for the shows next year, I've bought this little gem aswell (as I lost my last camcorder when I split from the wife) It's the Sony DCR-DVD202 DVD Camcorder. Records in Widescreen and directly onto mini DVD discs. As my show footage didn't get very far this year, I'm hoping to do a lot more shows next year, combined with both of the above to produce a very professional DVD later next year for sale. Armed with a new, much more powerfull, computer I'll be taking my DVD production to a new, far better, quality level.

P2p Advice
I've used Bittorent, and didn't get on with it at all (maybe i did something wrong?!) I'm currentley using Limewire Pro. This is a nice and simple to use program. It's relativley quick to use, only slowed down by either your connection or the amount of people who have whatever you're looking for, that are on-line at any one given moment. If your 'friend' is on dial-up, personally, I wouldn't bother, as it'll take ages to download anything. But whatever P2P program you use, always Virus-Scan anything you download BEFORE you open it!!!

I was actually thinking Hillman Hunter, but now you've said the Cortina, I think it resembles that more than the Hunter. :D

300 ZX (Non runner)
I'm sorry to dissagree with you, but you are NOT protected just because someone comes on here, pays £20, then can advertise (no dissrespect meant to slarty bartfast) what turns out to be a total dog and then fooks off never to be heard from again. But then you aren't on Autotrader either ;) But then saying that, it doesn't always stand even if someone has been here a while ;) :x: :nelson: But what it does get you is cheaper advertising, and to a specialist market, that is more likely to to know what they are talking about.

Coming Into Some Money!
Following my news of getting a new job, we all had a redundency meeting with HR today. Well it seems that I will not only receive my redundency payment, but also all my notice period in full even though I won't work any of it! All TAX FREE!!!!! :hyper: So I'm going to end up with 2 1/2 times the amount that I was expecting :bow: Just got to make sure that my house sells first, then find somewhere to spend some of my money :D ......... mmmmmmmmmm now what does the Zed need ;) What an excellent bit of news just before xmas! Hmmmm, I wonder how much a full strip out re-spray will cost me? :D New brakes, bushers, wheels....... hmmmm full manual conversion????

Where as I entierly agree with what you are saying, I would doubt that your mate will find any forum that will stick the the subject matter alone, but than who would want a forum to purely disscuss the ZX alone? The old hands would get bored enventually and the quality of posting would go down (not that some of the quality is all that good in the first place :rofl: ) IMHO ;)

Which Broadband provider
Don't go with AOL either :headvswal I'm also looking at Eclipse, looks like a good deal on their Flexing system ;)

Can you fix it?
Right, as an ex-washing machine mechanic :D I would recommend, as stated above, checking the motor brushes. If they are OK check out the belt while you have the lid/back off (depending on model). Also rotate the drum by hand and, as also stated above, check for roughness/ any noises there as well. Then come back and tell us your findings, and I could diagnose from there :D All the above actions should take yu no more than about five minutes, including removing the screws. HTH Right thats Call out (to my PC) £21.50 Time spent on diagnose 1x £5.50 (per 15 minutes) =Total £27.00.................. Cash or cheque will do :D lol

How many are Happily Married on here??
So, on the whole, Zedders seem to be happy to be with someone else, either married or not, but no-one is un-happy to be divorced. So all the ones that are divorced think they have made the right choice?! Well I hope you're all happy in whatever choice you have made. :D

Proud to be British !!!
Yeah, but the point being is that we all lived together in harmony. Whereas the current way of thinking is that we have to give way to the incoming ideals.... why should we? I have no problem with other nationals coming over here to live and work, and even practice their own religion and traditions. But the problem is when they start to complain about us practising our own religions and traditions, thats the point when it becomes un-acceptable. Oh and by the way, Hitler did have some very good ideas, but he made terrible mistakes and took some very bad advice (he was very impresionable) He also went about it in the wrong way. Dont' jump on a band wagon, unless you know your facts, because I do! ;)
