scaryoldcortina Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Or that bike that someone bolted a train horn with air tank onto . Someone brought a train horn into the garage once and asked me to test it with the airline. My compressor is a 10hp jobbie delivering around 35cfm@150psi, and we were in a tin shed.

wuvvum Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I think Airzound horns are quite loud. http://www.airzound.co.uk/I bought an earlier model Airzound 20 years ago, and I can confirm that they are indeed quite loud. Only problem is the air tank is quite small so one sustained angry blast is enough to pretty much empty it. Mine still works fine, but is perhaps more solidly made than the current model (air tank is alloy rather than plastic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 The Autoshite facebook page is bent as fuck, someone posted a very nice XM belonging too their elderly mother whos retired from driving, one of the admin starts stiffing around it it asking if it's for sale, i point out that its probably worth quite a bit a bit (42k X plate 3.0 V6 Executive with 1 owner last registered one of it's kind) so admin deleted my post after telling me to shut up...

Timewaster Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It seems to share a driveway with a C6 and a hi spec C4? Clearly chevron enthusiasts so they are unlikely to give it away to a chancer. trigger and myglaren 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timolloyd Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Ugh. BMW X5 with personalised plates and braying brat kids. Seems almost impossible for owners to park these discreetly, which seems amazing given how boring the car looks. hennabm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaryoldcortina Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 TOP TIP Driving in teatime rush hour traffic? Need to answer the phone but don't want to get fined? Simply stop dead on the Tees Flyover and put your hazard lights on to take the call, then pull away again when you have finished your 5 minute chat. Nothing will happen and you absolutely won't gridlock the whole of the northbound A19 and the A66. I couldn't believe it - a Black Golf did this at half five yesterday, I assumed it was broken as everyone squeezed into one lane but no, she put her phone away, turned the hazards off and pulled away right in front of me. loserone, myglaren and Lacquer Peel 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xtriple Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 The continuing saga of trades who don't want to do ANYTHING out of the ordinary. Got a valeter/detailer chap out to sort out my water stained bootlid, he had a bit of a go then declared he needed some special/magic stuff and would be round on Saturday morning (today). No show/no call so just rang him to be told various people have said it's impossible and needs painting, so he's not coming. No call. No apology. Ho hum....

beko1987 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Water stains should come out. A bottle of lime prime light should do it, light isn't as abrasive, its more of a paint cleaner/conditioner so could lift them right out assuming they haven't fucked the lacquer etc. It may at least hide them enough to not be visible under a few coats of wax. Or do the water stains simply need drying off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave21478 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Hurt my back today - probably nothing major, just a bit of a muscle tweak. Bizarrely, I did it while running away from a swarm of angry bees whos hive I had knocked over. I am 99% sure my entire life is some kind of Beadles About wind up.

On french-polished furniture you can get water marks out by wiping them over with meths and setting light to the fumes blowing them across the white mark which it miraculously lifts through the polish. I would not recommend trying this on your bootlid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cort16 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I just drove the rover 10 miles and it did it's Thomas the tank engine bit again . I was thinking that when I drove it the other night I had the heater on as Id switched the heater on when trying to bleed it. On my return journey I started it with the heater on and it was totally fine . I even turned the heater off after 5 mins and it stayed fine . I know with the heater on you're extending the cooling system but why would it remain okay once it's heated up even when I put it back to cold ? I also had someone offer to buy it in aldi car park. It wasn't shooting stream at this point obviously . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Maybe the Golf driver on the phone was like the Merc 4x4 driver that stopped on the M25, in the outside lane, because a warning light had illuminated.The wombles turned up, closed the lane, went over to try and assess the problem and found the low fuel light had come on. Maybe Golf Lady phoned someone only to be told "Don't be daft, that green arrow means you found the indicator" chaseracer, scaryoldcortina, Richard and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 A bit back now I ended up listening to Radio 1 one Sat morning and thought I'd give it a chance again. Big mistake. It now seems in recent weeks that every show has the same inane dickhead DJ babbling on in what seems to be one big 'in house' joke with some other tit in the studio, then have people ringing them up and they talk complete bollocks as well. strangeangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I happened to catch a bit of Nick Grimshaw's show soon after he took over from Moyles. He was banging on about Glastonbury and the Rolling Stones, so much for appealing to a younger audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
