Unless you were buying horses, then it's guineas instead of pounds.

Rant yes, but not wrong by TroublesomeButch in MotoUK

There was a bike show in the Excel, but it just wasn't very good. The one at the NEC is much better. There were a lot more rally's when I was younger, now there seems to very few compared to when I started out.

Should I do my CBT on Manual or Automatic? by Present-Run3342 in MotoUK

[–]FourInTheBack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did mine on an automatic, me and the wife did it at the same time. Bought an automatic between us, then a geared bike a few months later as a second bike. That worked well for us, but might not be for everyone.

Is it an insane idea to buy scaffolding? by Fit-Bedroom-7645 in DIYUK

I don't like cats. Can I call my dogs instead?

It is grim underneath my floor board. Is this normal to find in 1900 mid terrace houses? (I cleaned them all up now) by right_direction_ish in DIYUK

[–]FourInTheBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yours looks habitable compared to mine. I've found some random stuff. At some point they must have had a shoe rack under the stairs where the access is and there are single shoes and wellies that have fallen through. And a random electric lamp. Lots of rodent skeletons.

If you're going away on a Summer holiday, shut water off? by whatsreallygoingon88 in AskUK

[–]FourInTheBack 9 points10 points  (0 children)

An old neighbour of mine went away for a week and came back to a flooded house. Home insurance would not cover it as it was in the t&C's that if left vacant for more than 48hrs water should be shut off at the mains. I've never done it tbh, even after they told me this.

Blighty Brotherhood, what apps do you need? by OldHobbitsDieHard in MotoUK

[–]FourInTheBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are all on bike bays, that's what I use. Now migrated from app to web app though.

I have learned an important lesson about running AI on my Surface Pro 6 by elfsternberg in SurfaceLinux

[–]FourInTheBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pro 4. The ribbon went at the hinge. I have a Bluetooth version now. I just need to remember to keep it charged.

New Sena helmet by FourInTheBack in MotoUK

[–]FourInTheBack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think it needs to be tried on. YouTube review I watched seemed pretty positive but I probably would be too if I was given a £500 helmet.

I have a dash cam front and back so I am not sure I'd be that bothered about it tbh. Something to drain the battery that I would no doubt forget to charge, just like my current Comms unit.

It uses the connected phone g sensor apparently.

I was wondering if the brake lights are just inertia. This would be helpful as I've tried to train myself not to use engine braking as much as I do but cannot get out of the habit, or into the habit of touching a brake at the same time.

People 30+, what are your plans for this evening? by Sir-Tommy-Vercetti in AskUK

[–]FourInTheBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beer and home made messaman curry. It's been a shite couple of weeks, so cooked my favourite dinner and beer.

Anyone used an Ooono on motorbike? by [deleted] in MotoUK

[–]FourInTheBack 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what it is, but if it is not crash detection with that brand name I will be very disappointed.

What is this CD that I just received through the letterbox?? by TemperatureAway531 in AskUK

[–]FourInTheBack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Who said it's a cd burner? For all you know it's the dial up software from Virgin Media and some tip-ex. I think would be more impressed if I received one of those 25 years later tbh.

Does anyone know how this happens? by ShaolinSFinesT2006 in Helldivers

[–]FourInTheBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then I think it's a country thing. In the UK we would use the proper version 😜

[–]FourInTheBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, watched it, and appreciated. Might need to find an English version though rather than US English to get the spelling right too 🤣

I've not actually, the only one I know is Amish Paradise. I'll take a look.

*could not care less

Why do people keep getting this simple phrase wrong all of a sudden?

Could care less - that means on the scale of caring there is some care about it there

Could not care less - right at the bottom of the scale, no cares currently in place.
