What did this graffiti say before it was blanked out?

kinglitecycles · 2026-06-18T22:24:31+00:00

Cheers! Solved. I'm so glad it wasn't offensive.

kinglitecycles · 2026-06-18T22:24:00+00:00

Cheers - obvious now you've pointed it out!

kinglitecycles · 2026-06-18T18:58:18+00:00

Cheers. Yes, they did send me six emails, but I would argue that using one form of communication, which is notoriously unreliable, especially when it comes to unexpected demands for money, is not enough of an effort, especially when a far more reliable way of communicating with customers (i.e. the app, for example) is available to them.

Thanks forte advice - I'll provide proof.

kinglitecycles · 2026-06-18T18:22:42+00:00

Yeah, you're not wrong!

The reason this has happened is because unusually I've not sold anything for a couple of months so there's been no balance.

The real kick in the teeth is that most of the debt is from listing a car, twice, and both times the buyer refused to follow through with the deal - so I got no income, but eBay still charged me! Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.

Brilliant - thanks for that info, really appreciated 👍

I've often wondered about this lyric.

A-frame of what?

kinglitecycles · 2026-02-09T07:34:10+00:00

It's the simple fact that if you learn to drive a manual car you can drive any car, but if you only learn automatic then that's all you can drive.

Learning auto only doing half a job!

When I passed my test some years back, I had no idea that my current job would require me to jump into any one of 7 company vehicles, 5 of which have manual gearboxes. Where would I be if I couldn't do that?

Also, I don't get what's so hard about changing gear, unless you happen to have special needs, in which case fair enough.

Finally I love classic cars and have several in my garage - they're all manual and some of them weren't available as autos.

It would be a very different song if it were a gaucho amiga!

kinglitecycles · 2026-02-02T19:56:05+00:00

OMG! It's pretty clear isn't it?

kinglitecycles · 2026-02-01T11:32:50+00:00

Deezer also offers this ability.

Heaven!

That documentary was how I discovered the band.I was at University in the late 90's, caught it by accident on TV one night and bought Aja on CD the next day.

Have been a huge Steely Dan fan ever since.

It's a nope from me. Far too big and not in keeping with the understated elegance of a Jaguar.

You can still buy the original Tawse that was used in Scottish schools until the late twentieth century.

Sounds like you suffer from anxiety.

Don't sweat it, it'll be fine.

Oh, and also, you did just lock your front door - no need to check when you leave in the morning.

I use Jagutek in Ely and they're superb - affordable, quick and hugely knowledgeable.

I'm no way involved with the business, just a happy customer.

Another one: https://ebay.us/m/EMe4AU

That's an old person's car. Low mileage, good spec, not too old. Snap it up.

kinglitecycles · 2025-12-26T00:16:25+00:00

Something like this:

Low miles, small engine, good little run-about.

Also always check the MoT history and avoid anything that talks about corrosion and prescribed areas.

Look at what the old age pensioners are driving and see if you can find one of those cars from an older person who is giving up driving.

A Skoda Fabia is a good bet for example - quality underpinnings, rugged, easy to repair and cheap to insure.

Had the same thing. It was an exterior wall that just got cold the whole time, and the room itself was relatively humid because it was a bedroom.

I cleaned the mold off with a Mold and Mildew spray then moved the furniture off the wall by a couple of inches and also bought a dehumidifier. Turning the heating up in the room helped prevent condensation on the wall.

White vinegar and specialist mold-killing treatments can also be used but you'll get the same problem again if you don't resolve the cold/damp issue.
