  1. Remember it's Australia, they think McGyver was a documentary.
  2. Oh yes. A friend of mine's wife can't watch it as each time she's tried it freaks her out for days afterwards. She's also scared of Praying Mantises...
  3. Yes. Charlie Brooker's creation. He is one of my favourite writer/commentator/comedians. Very talented man and a very unsettling and excellent series.
  4. Now some culture: Great words and a quite a tribute. http://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/a-transcendent-patti-smith-accepts-bob-dylans-nobel-prize
  5. Brilliant!
  6. Gearbest is excellent by the way. The priority line shipping option is quick: eight days a few months ago, now, as it's close to Chrimbo might be a bit slower but two weeks is a possibility. It'll add about ZAR160 to your order. They have some good pricing. Edit: Spelling.
  7. No, just no. See those holes? Those are where your dignity leaks out. (Admittedly not original but true).
  8. What time were they there? I had to drive in today, no cops when I went through, it was quite early though (0530). They're normally waiting to catch the white line crossers (which I like to see).
  9. I've obviously been very lucky or they simply deem me not worthy. I generally go through there very early (0430-0530). I do worry a little on my way back as it's usually around the 1500 mark and it can be a touch lonely. A while ago there were cops and security pretty much every day. It's a real shame and I hope something can be done.
  10. Isn't that what you do the following morning after ten pints and a Vindaloo?
  11. Top Secret?

    Just shows, there are lies, damn lies and statistics... Attributed to M.Twain I think.
  13. I used to work with two Serbs and that's how they used to pour their beer!
  14. Maybe it's because I'm tired but this made me laugh a lot.
  15. As edits seem to be the theme at the moment:
  16. Yeah, that's the one.
  17. The Young Pope is rather good. Also, Gomorrah is magnificent but you have to either understand Neapolitan Italian or be OK with subtitles.
  18. Remind you of something? Two wheeled, the reason you joined this community?
  19. He's another who can write an amazing lyric but is definitely not a writer. Dylan is another, see "Tarantula". Although he (Dylan) is definitely a poet.
  20. Maybe it feels a little like victim blaming? Just a thought.
  21. This is from The NY Times. I know it's a bit last month but really?
  22. Eezibleed on Fleabay for about GBP26 including postage.
  23. Ah I see, so you're tied to the agent for servicing.
  24. Find a decent independent. You'll get the diagnostics done for half the price; I'm presuming you're out of warranty. There's a VW forum somewhere out there, I'm sure they'll help.
