youve been saying that for a while but your still here lol. like we siad its all about working through the teething period once tahts out the way it will be fine :) do what i did and write yourself alist and cross it off as you go really helps keep you focused and grounded with yiouir eventual target. did you sort out the alternator nut?

you mean its not normal you dont have to justr live with it? lol

needs a spoiler and differnt skirts.

yup thats exactly the point, its people like yourself an dyour wife she should be supported to make better of your lives rather than the do nothing tossers. because those that want to have to fork out to get anywhere like you say it puts people off an dyou get stuck in a cycle of crap. i really should find something to do of an evening to train but the big question is what? what can i do thats worth doing. lots of things seem good on paper but actually dont help at all in the long run. ive not got to the stage where i think im not worth any more than my current pay packet and am stuck here long term.

haha hes a poster boy aint he?

hurrah!

i dont really know what to do atm, as i said earlier i dont earn a great deal. i have 12 gcses over a c and 4 a levels but even then i cannot break out of the minimum wage or just above bracket. going back into education simply isnt an option for me at present. and well the last few years all ive seen is the harder you try the less teh goverment seem to reward you. this country has is priorities all upside down. im opretty sick of now tbh and like many people my age emmagration just keeps looking liek a better and better option, great britian is failing a whole generation buy not allow us to grow in our careers, and rewarding the no hopers. i really think they nee dto pull their finger out because the gap between those who have and those who have not are getting bigger and bigger and how smart or able you are seems to ave little to do with your outcome in life. luck plays a massive part, but in the main the rich get richer and teh poor stay poor. no matter how bright you are. school really was a waste of time.

right... sadly atm being unemployed is an actual carrer, working out the best way to fiddle the system is a very lucative way to "earn" money. the goverment have stepped in to make things harder for these professional unemployed, however all they hacve succeed in doing is making it harder for thiose that are honest to get back on thier feet. some of you may know about 3/4 years ago i was made redundant from my goverment funded appenticship. the college made little attempt to help me and actually failed to return my calls and failed to provide me with any interviews or concrete leads what so ever. what they did do is continue to allow me to come to college so they got their cheque from johhny taxman. i had until that point never claimed benifits, but after going to the job centre to look at the jobsm, i wanted something part time to pay teh bills and allow me to keep going to college while i saught a proper job again. i was told at that point they couldnt help me with a job unless i knew what i wante dto do and they couldnt help me if i wasnt claiming jsa. crazy really, basically i was forced to go on the doll to get paid! fortunatly fairly shortly a friend had a job going in a bar and i applied for that and got it. which did my confidence some good after being made redundant. so again the goverment had failed to help me id had to help myself. meanwhile im obviously taking time out of work to gio to college, so they money deficit is getting bigger. in the end i had to quit college, and take on two part time jobs. in the end i was working 80hours a week 7 days a week. for minimum wage and being taxed heavily for doing two jobs! so being well looked after again by mr brown at the time. fortunatlky it all sort of worked out, i paid off my debts one of the "part" time jobs became a full time and i got to drop one and cut the tax, i later recived a rebate for a grand after they didnt cancel my tax code for seven months. i was still being taxed for two jobs! anyways i got a job as a swimming pool technician in the end brought the zed with the money id made from working like deamon and i now earn a 15k salary with benifits fuel card etc etc my jobs differnt everyday im never in the same place and i drive alot. anyways thats my little story. sadly this doesnt always work out this way. i know of a few people at this moment in time, one being my girlfriend. who are out of work through no fault of thier own and want to get back to work desperatly. they will do almost anything. sadly though after hundreds of applications for minimum wage jobs they are still not employed. most opf teh work out their which quite correctly pointed out there is lots, is very poorly paid. although something is beter than nothing. and often parttime, its cheaper and more efficent to employ to part time workers at minimum wage than to employ one full time due to holidays tax etc etc etc. in factr many of the positions available are for as little as a contracted 8 hours. they then expect you to do the overtime when it suits them and your contract is temporay, see where thats going? it sthe sam eold story those who dont want to do anything are laughing with an equilvent of 36000 a year per couple and those taht want to try are treated with the same brush, but not given the help. did you know if i was to loose my job and if my landlord was one that didnt except goverment cheques for rent id be homless an dthey would do sod all about it? if however we had a child we would get a house. well its common sense to see hopw to play that game. which is another problem all in itself. i do agree that people who are long term jsa should be forced to work for the country doing litter picking etc to pay thier way. how ever their is two problems with that too my mind. firstly parliment would never pass it, because it would be some stupid invasion of some idoits human rights. secondly the unwilling workforce would do as little as possible. thirdly, who ever already does teh job you give to these long term benfit takers will have thier job underminded and you will create a subclass of even cheaper labour. increasing the minium wage would help to make going back to work profitable and desirable an option to the scum class, and would ensure those who do want to work for a living are rewarded better. however the downside is many buisnesses will not be able to afford to hike in wages and so it will again never be passed. it would also damage the ecconomy due to buisnesses wanting to cut staffing levels to offset it.

That sounds about right voddy. Starter draws hudge amounts of leccy.

I agree to an extent and will be back later to bexplain.

i may well one of these days cut up a capri with a rusted rear floor and drop in the zeds rear subframe and the vg30dett. gets rid of the leafs gains a proper lsd and rear disks its a winner. esp as once rot gets into the box section that houses the leaf the car becomes costly to fix.

ah that does explain a few things ian. however i maintain my opinion that they are cutting thier nose off etc. imagine if you owned a buisness and have a que of peopel wanting your product but you demanded that they brought x amount of something no one wanted its crazy. you cannot do buisness like that.

on the subject of things, doesnt anyone else think it looks like this? http://www.zcentre.co.uk/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.pbv.tpl&product_id=268&category_id=77&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=7 hardly a new design, they do need to pull thier finger out as thier cutting thier nose of despite their face atm.

have you posted it up on zclub.net? im sure a few of those 350 guys would drag along and maybe a few bonus s bodies

i would agree with rob there esp if yopur honest, just say youve had a change in things and you have chosen to get rid, then fib and say because thres no point both of you running a car. sell the citroen its worth loads more than the zed and well its french. i know you can look at a zed as a potential capatial but tbh their not. even one as good as yours for decent money it would take time to shift probally longer than two months, so youd end up selling it for half what its worth maybe less in an attempt to sell it quick.

If you can get hold of a replacement hose we can change than within an hour!
