    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

    it's my birthday today- happy birthday to me. i'm happy now, got olympics tickets, sitting on my rear whilst OH makes my birthday dinner (although a little annoyed that she didn't do what i asked for which was a massive plate of fishfinger sandwiches with vegetable samosas on the side), whilst i watch people running around a track on the telly. wonderful .

    4 of my friends are at the olympic stadium for the 100m final tonight though, i would have preferred that i think!
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    I don't tell people here when it's my birthday ... but it's winter and before Xmas.

    It's all a bit "saddo": Here I sit, alone on my birthday, not doing anything, got no gifts, not going out, no cake, no birthday tea......

    Apparently, If Yorkshire was a Country it would have won more medals than the aussies :rotfl:

    If Hertfordshire was a country you could possibly say the same, being home to Victoria Pendleton and Laura Trott. Actually, I've heard rumour that we may invade Buckinghamshire so that we can claim Greg Rutherford and Andrew Triggs-Hodge.

    Happy birthday chewy. Remember, you're not old enough to be a grumpy old bloke just yet.

    Could do a Xmas market day out ... I've never been to one of those. Those furren-themed things....

    There's no point you all coming to the seaside and all of us sitting on the steps to a beach wearing a duffel coat and eating chips in the rain :)

    Not slapping ... just saying :)
    I want the moon on a stick, if anybody can find it... with a garage.

    Not just a garage. It needs to be an en suite garage. :)
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?
