    Awww, missed coffee break :( Will have to make do with a tassimo latte :D

    I've been trying out bread machine recipes as not used my machine for a while. I got a couple off tinterweb which were rubbish - they had eggs and/or butter in them and failed to rise. I found my old notepad with recipes in last night and there is the recipe that I used to use regularly - just water, flour, yeast, oil, sugar and salt. I put some in this morning and bread is now rising away nicely in the machine :T

    Out bl**dy car is playing up again, we bought an 04 plate Renault Scenic end of last year and since then have the coil packs replaced, clutch, catalytic converter and spark plugs done and now the coil packs seem to have gone again :( Garage thinks that water may be getting under the bonnet and rusting the coils - common fault on scenics apparently :( I'm under orders to find us a small German car so we can get rid of this once its fixed. I don't know one car from another so off to see my friend google

    Ive got a Renault Megane Tourer ( estate) and ive has problems with the electrics in the rear door ( a common problem too ) Last week the rear window went down on its own and smoke started pouring out. The connector to the window motor melted and started a small fire :eek:

    New part over £200 :( but saw one on ebay, asked if they had a buy it now price but they said no they wanted to get as much as possible. Well no one else bid and I got it for £11.50 delivered. :)

    Morning :wave:

    Apologies to anyone I upset yesterday. 'Senseless drama' really isn't my thing so I must have completely miscommunicated myself. I guess sometimes when things hit on a nerve with me I just feel the need to offload. I can see that perhaps it isn't appropriate on this thread.

    Anyhew, the ignore button will do you no harm, I never find any glitches anyway, but for what it's worth I shall avoid speaking my mind in future

    Cheers

    I can assure you that my comment was not referring to you.

    Why do I feel the need to include my name in each message as though it is an email...? I don't on other forums/boards and note most of you don't either ...

    Anon

    I always do too!
    Dunno why, probably following your shining example as one of our Leaders:T

    I have an 04 plate Scenic too, had it for 7 years now and never any problem, been very reliable. Really should change it but no need if it keeps going so well. Only gripe is cost of parts, had a front window winder motor a few years ago, £145 plus fitting. Other than that hardly anything has gone wrong and it a useful work-horse, so versatile with removable rear seats and so many storage 'holes'. Last 3 cars before that were Renault Espace, again very reliable and versatile family car/van but expensive for parts.

    Have a good day everyone!

    Well I don't know about that but I do know that my post about the Weetabix On the Go Go "trigger" was an April Fool. On the "Go Go":rotfl::rotfl:. So there remains to be a trigger found in that offer, if any. I liked the 19 thanks for the OP though and, if anyone has wasted their time looking for the alleged On the Go Go Golden Syrup & Sultana (50g:rotfl:) then that's your fault, as you're the fool.

    I suspect you'll all be watching out for any piece of info. that I might slip into one of my posts next April 1st. Right, busy day so see you later!:)

    Seems I had at least one of you fooled:rotfl::



    :rotfl::rotfl:
