  1. "Did I mention this car has a leather steering wheel? Probably not suitable for vegetarians - not sure? I dont speak vegetarian so cant ask one." Awesome.
  2. I thought you were gonna say Wispa Gold.
  3. There's a free Android app called 'Where's My Droid'. It lets you do all sorts of useful stuff.
  4. Electric razors are bad for giving ingrown hairs.
  5. Have a hot shower (to open pores). Leave face wet. Apply shaving oil to beard/face. This will help the razor glide. Use a damp, not sopping wet, badger brush to apply a large pea-size blob of shaving cream. 'Mr Taylor of Old Bond Street' is very good. Work it in. The badger brush takes care of the exfoliation - you'll have done most of it when you washed in the shower. Use a double edge safety razor (eg. a Merkur http://www.traditionalshaving.co.uk/mall/productpage.cfm/traditionalshaving/_MER-9033001/268141/Classic-33C-Safety-Razor-Chrome) and shave in a vertical, downwards direction only. Rinse razor frequently as you go. You'll be surprised how little tugging there is compared to a multi-blade cartridge system. Let the weight of the razor do the work - and go carefully. Rinse face in warm/hot water. Lather up face again. You probably won't need to apply any more shaving cream to the brush. Shave in a vertical, upwards-only direction. Rinse face in warm/hot water. Lather up face again. Shave in a horizontal, outwards-only direction. Start in the middle of your 'tache. Rinse face in warm/hot water. Lather up face again. Shave in a horizontal, inwards-only direction. Start over by your ear. Rinse face with cold water (to close pores). Pat face dry with towel. Use a moistened styptic pencil http://www.traditionalshaving.co.uk/mall/productpage.cfm/traditionalshaving/_CYR-AFT-STY/-/Styptic-Pencil to seal any nicks or cuts. Apply aftershave balm/lotion. And you'll have the smoothest face you've had in years and a massive reduction in ingrown hairs. I've not had a single one since I changed to a safety razor. The above is known as the '4 Pass' system, for obvious reasons. Blades are about 10-50p each depending on what you get and each will last about 2-6 shaves depending on your beard and shaving frequency - much better than £s for a cartridge system. It's a nice little 'ritual' too, if you like that sort of thing. See here for a guide:
  6. Simplest cure - start shaving with a safety razor or straight edge (cut throat).
  7. It's all about increasing your stopping distance as conditions worsen. 10 times for fog or ice. I wonder how many people left that big a gap.
  8. I don't know much, but if you do it as a legit business, you'll pay corporation tax at a lower rate than income tax.
  9. I'm a Monk of Cool.
  10. A proper shape car in the same way that a P-reg BMW M3 was. Class!
  11. Yes, it's illegal. You MUST NOT move forward over the white line when the red light is showing. Only go forward when the traffic lights are green if there is room for you to clear the junction safely or you are taking up a position to turn right. If the traffic lights are not working, treat the situation as you would an unmarked junction and proceed with great care. [Laws RTA 1988 sect 36 & TSRGD regs 10 & 36] Emergency vehicle drivers have no right to expect you to move out of the way. Whether you get done or not is at the discretion of the court.
  12. Have you tried learning to meditate? At least if you don't fall asleep you'll get some rest.
  13. Hippy barthday, Al.
  14. Sowing the Seeds of Love and Everybody Wants to Rule the World are epic too :) One of the best and most under-rated bands of the 80s.
  15. It's everything from Japan at the moment. You may have heard of something that happened there this year?
  16. http://www.hotsmokebbq.com/002gear/tips_and_tricks.php
  17. Does it remind anyone else of a Bristol?
  18. Did you mop with a glaze?
  19. Aha! Somebody who understands barbecueing! Nice one :)
  20. Have you tried eating loads of lettuce before you go to bed, or better still boil some lettuce and drink the water?
  21. I've always thought that Volvo gold would look good on a Z:
  22. Sorry for your losses. Hang in there.
  23. Don't autos have a slightly higher potential top speed in 3rd gear?
