'03 172 Cup in the lay-by near Tescos.... Tubby red 197, leaving the petrol station where Subway is. We've just got our Quad F (foot-long, fat-ba5tard, Friday) sub now.... ;) D.

...... I think the reg started 'L5'. It was foggy though and I only spotted you at the last minute. Would have been 8.10am (ish) this morning. Anyone? D.

Had an extra interest in this as we have a works sponsored car in it - driven by our MD and another director... Sealed VAG units - the same for all cars. 150bhp 1.8 20v engines, iirc... The team in the next bay had a bad idling problem - sounding really lumpy and then...

I don't know what it is - but it's good! :approve: In the past few weeks, it's had its 36k service. Been fed nothing but Tesco's 99RON juice (about five tankfuls) and the weather has noticably gone cooler. Maybe a combination of all three have added to the 182's low-down grunt, recently? I was...

Just a general question chaps. Our G5 Mac has no issue at all getting on the internet. However, the software updates option just doesn't seem to to work - it times-out eventually. I'm wondering if the updates use a specific port that we are currently blocking? Or is it something more obvious...

Mornin! :) Spotted you on the outside lane of the M6 earlier on. We were sat in that car park of traffic heading southbound. Around Charnock Richard, I think? D.

....went past on the opposite side of the M6. Had Lexus-style rear light clusters. Would have been just after 1pm this afternoon.... D.

Had a private plate that ended in 'TYS' iirc. Only spotted it at the last minute - I gave a quick wave and got one back. ;) Anyone off here? D.

After getting the trackday as a Chrissy present last year, today was the day that Jain finally got to use it. First up in the 197 and then the single seater, all of us in Jain's entourage (lol!) were hoping like mad that the rain held off. It did for the most part, but we did see one spinner...

I'm in the process of uploading the mobile phones onto our phone switch so it displays a name on the incoming calls, rather than just a mobile number. I've got a full list of names and numbers in an Excel 2003 spreadsheet, but I'd like to add the word 'Mobile' at the end of everyone's name e.g...

How did he go on (assuming it was him! :o).... did he manage to sell it? The RSi looked the absolute nads - really spot-on perfect and for a decent price, imo. Can't believe it had 84k on the clock!! D.

Most CDs that you get with hardware are just full of crap - usually old drivers, apps and crap games. In a 7900GTX box that arrived this week, I thought I'd have a quick mooch on the CDs and see what was there. Clicked on the demo games bit and one was called Armored Fist 3. Being a bit of a...

Means diddly-squat to me in my daily job, but some Mac users maybe interested? http://www.pcpro.co.uk/macuser/news/124545/pantone-goes-for-2000-new-colours.html D.

First time I'd been on track at Donington and being the co-pilot, had quite a few chances to take some pics. I really need a more powerful camera! Anyways...... on the way out (grinning like a big kid at this point :cool:) Under the Dunlop bridge.... Some Yorkshireman...

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=364166 Ok, so it's no longer the cutting edge of graphics - no DX10 support, etc. But for the money, it's still a good card. And it appears to be in stock too. :) D.

'03 plate silver 172 complete with CS and Yozza stickers on it. Parked up near the entrance (brave lad!) - about 30mins ago.... D.

If I restart a Linux webserver, will all the services restart without the need to logon after reboot - pretty much like a Windows server? I've got an issue where the server is not emailing new customers back their 'Click here to activate' emails. Hence, we've several new customers who cannot...

One was an arctic blue 182 with stripes with private plate and the other a dark blue 172 with large rims and a slightly mahoosive sounding pipe. Anyone off here? D.

I've downloaded the v7.04 desktop client with the aim of trying it out on my other PC at home. I'm very new to Linux, so was wondering if Ubuntu was the best option? Any feedback or suggestions, would be great! Cheers, D.

Well, this weekend should have been the Gold Cup Classic at Oulton Park, with various old cars on there. Some unique eye-candy there, but totally outclassed by the rally cars - absolute motoring p**n, imo.... Metro 6R4... RS200 getting it a bit wrong.... and...

Made me laugh though...... http://www.hardocp.com/image.html?image=MTE4NzIxMTg5NjZKUlo5U29kNTdfMV8xX2wuanBn Could the life-expectancy of the CPU be measured in seconds? ;) D.

A bloke looking none too disimilar to a certain Mr. Lloyd...... ...seen driving on the M65, eastbound. The Trophy reg started YH55, iirc? He did break 80mph at one point - but eased off before reaching 88mph. Damn. Anyways, the Trophy looked nicer than a De Lorean.....:cool: D.

Spotted it going up the sliproad this afternoon. I was a few cars behind (not in the 182). No CS sticker that I could see, but like I said, there was a K&N one near the Reno badge on the boot. Anyone? D.

Is it wrong for a bloke of 32 to have two carrier-bags full of microfibre?! Had a bit of a tidy-up this morning and I swear that these cloths have been breeding - I don't even remember where half of them came from! Maybe I keep seeing packs of them for sale and forget that I've already got...

... are they unique to that Macbook specifically? I.e. - if we lost them, are we shagged? Or would other CDs from other Macbooks reinstall just as well? Haven't lost the originals (as yet!) - but just checking.... Cheers, D.

Anyone off here? On that little slip-road down the side of the Land Rover garage off Junc.12, M65. You were out of the car and heading for the postbox. D.

Just a little techie question, if there is! We've got quite a few 1841-ADSL routers happily running along with no problems. Yet we have two of the 1841-SDSL versions and both seem to be very busy, even though they are doing little. One supports just three PCs via a VPN and the CPU on the...

....... bought for one of the guys here, for home use. Looks superb in black. Went for 2GB memory for it too, so that should be plenty. The Dark Side is forever more tempting...... ;) D.

I'm not even sure of the on-screen price, as I've only noticed it from a distance. Just a heads up if anyone was after a Cup in the area? Cheers, D.
