A polish colleague of mine does this, braces tweaked every three weeks currently.
What's the cost like? And how did you find a polish dentist?
I have a Polish business partner and he recommended this clinic in his home city. It's a large family company with a training facility and they also manufacture dental tools.
I go there for their orthodontic services rather than as a straight dentist, I'm having some long overdue reconstructive surgery.
At age 16, I had a rather spectacular accident, impaled on a spiked metal fence. Entry between windpipe and chin, exit point via mouth. As you can imagine, things are a little bit custom as a result.
Cost wise, I believe it's somewhere between a third to half the cost of similar in the UK but it's the actual expertise and care that attracted me in from the first consultation.
I'm also very fortunate that my business partner has a good friend with a business looking after various Airbnb portfolios, so accommodation is free.
Lots of snow on my last visit in early December, I'm hoping for better weather when I fly there this Sunday.

The Mrs had an emergency wisdom tooth extraction last month.
Phoned the dentist to arrange it asap.
She got an appointment to go for a panoramic x-ray at 9am,with the actual procedure an hour later.
All sorted within 48hrs of the 1st call.
200 lev/ £45 was the total cost including her 1st lot of painkillers to follow on with.
One of the benefits of Bulgarian life.
No ID card needed so you could fly over to Varna or Burgas for a week,get work done then fly back.
Sofia would be possible but more expensive all round.
I go to Poland, the service and care is excellent.

Rear window demist radio aerials use a diplexer. It's a plain metal box with a 12v pos and neg going into it as well as an aerial socket going to the hrw and one forward to the radio.
My Rover 820i had terrible radio reception. The diplexer was in tailgate and the constant slamming had broken two large copper coils off the board.
I resoldered it and it then worked. It's worth taking a look underneath the rear shelf for the diplexer.

Some scamming bams in Glasgow have ripped off a friend of my daughter's.
They phoned him up telling him the mileage etc of his car and how it needed a service. This would be £145 including collecting and dropping off.
He's at uni on a visa and a bit naive, so thought this was normal practice in this country.
They wouldn't return his car until they paid this bill.
The invoice letter head is for a garage in Enfield London, who are no doubt oblivious to their name being used.
Dirty bastards
They've got form apparently:-

Speaking as the forum Running Dog Capitalist, the obvious answer is to sell him a set of REV plates and your spare V5.
He'll get one on the road and you'll be quids-in. You know it makes sense.

Have we had L'Œuf électrique yet? I have suggested a rebrand and relaunch as 'Le Sacre Merde' but sadly no reply yet.

I, and I'm sure I speak for many others, would part with good money for the opportunity to watch the first attempted channel crossing by an Invercare.

More good news.
My son has messaged me that the service history has just been delivered.
I’m currently 50 miles away from home with my wife enjoying a spa, massage, dinner and nookie weekend in a fancy country house hotel. I’m in two minds whether to stay or jump in the E46, drive home and check out the contents of the history file.

A very reasonable £29.99, buys you a jigsaw of Sandra Sandri who played Marcus Tandy's nubile love interest, Pilar Moreno, dressed as Father Christmas by a swimming pool. Astonishing value, I'm sure you'll agree.

Do you know if either supplied invacares for street or chase scenes?
The opening of 'The Sweeney' would be a bit different and Reagan and Carter would also be a tad cramped. Mind you as it apparently can go as fast backwards as forwards there'd be no need for those awkward J turns where it'd fall over.
Well, when it comes to poor decisions, look no further than Verity Lambert. She went from the groundbreaking Producers role in the Sweeney and ended up convincing the BBC to spunk shedloads on the awful and universally derided soap, Eldorado.

Yeah, Ford could afford to have a larger fleet of vehicles, so they could loan a couple of cars to Euston Films for the whole shoot. BL meanwhile would have to take cars back, and wouldn't have an identical back up car should there have been a failure to proceed.
The Professionals was from Avengers Mark1 Productions. Euston Films was The Sweeney.

You might if you got out a bit more. When Rev gets back, one imagines you'll be fighting 'em off with a shitty stick.
As an aside, many found it mildly arousing when Madame Lutz and I re-enacted a scene from that wonderful classic film, 'Stand By Me'.
A beautiful message I'm sure you'll agree.

Agree on 'everyone is free to be enthusiastic' but why should the forum be a safe space? for you or anyone? Forums are like pubs, most folk are ok but there are some cunts and dickheads also, if you don't like the atmosphere or general consensus it's your problem, not everyone else's to make you feel 'safe' probably best to take yourself out of the equation if it upsets you too much that others have different opinions to yours.

I used to collect bikes people had chucked out, clean them up and get them in good working order to sell on Gumtree for a bit of beer money.
One woman asks me if I could bring two kids bikes to her, probably 12-15 miles away but she seems keen to have them both so I agree and she gives me an address.
I turn up, and it's a traveller's site. I stopped outside and thought of just turning round and going home, but I got waved inside and it was too late.
I found her place, she glanced at the bikes, gave me the full asking price and thanked me, and I left. WEIRD.

So I'm just walking down a street in Poland and...
Little minter too. It was there when I went out this morning and still there tonight.
Nice to see that they're finally starting to preserve cars like this,
