  1. Good selection, you've got hours of fun there. Get a bottle sprayer for your water lube in the clay phase. I'd splash out a couple of quid on a new and clean bottle like: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Plastic-Trigger-Bottle-Plants-Sprayer/dp/B00D12GD0A/ref=sr_1_4?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1402140708&sr=1-4&keywords=water+bottle+sprayer If you must use something you have lying around, make sure it's properly clean inside and pump loads of water through the gun. You don't want remnants of last year's bathroom cleaner all over your totally bare paint!!!!
  2. I have a solution, you can wax mine. That gives you loads more panels I'll even rent you the test space for next to nothing.
  3. Sorry for a tedious practicality question, but can you fit two fully grown humans in the back seats?
  4. 5 channel amp FTW, chuck away sub amp, weight saved, go faster, more mpg, better handling, race car
  5. Top trolley tip, put it in a bin bag before it goes in. Saves ages cleaning cleaning the boot!
  6. If you use Time Machine and take regular backups like the 15 minute incremental you should be fine. ClamXav is a free Mac AV, I use it for on demand scans of certain items from time to time. The only proper "always on, proactive" AV I run on my mac is on the windows virtual machine. https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/clamxav/id430207028?mt=12 http://m.download.cnet.com/ClamXav/3000-2239_4-10668194.html Being aware of social engineering, browsing on "specialist" websites, dodgy attachments and handling unsolicited Mail from unknown people is the best AV you can have at home. Enterprise requires much more effort.
  7. Don't worry, just sounds like a common or garden bug in mail. If the email has disappeared and your iPad is still functioning fine and not exploded, I wouldn't worry about it for a second. There appears to have been a common issue like you descrbied on iOS4, but you can't still be on 4. Put it from your mind, it'll be some confused meta data or getting some jobs done in the wrong order or it just having a 'moment'. If it makes you feel any better, switch it off and back on again Nothing to worry about, bugs happen, then they go away. I'll have a quick google just in case though.
  8. The "front" of the boot will take a set and I usually pop my trolley (not electric or owt) behind the brace as it's lighter and easier to drop in without banging it off everything. My irons are shortened a half inch, but the driver is standard length and goes in, inside it's cover, no problem. Spikes and snacks go under the brace in between trolley and bag. Midget gets promoted to passenger seat. Simples!
  9. Is the sender someone you know and trust? If so, you very likely have nothing to worry about on iPad. Over 99% of mobile malware is android. Desktop malware is laregly Windows focused, but I don't know the % share, so you'd be more at risk if you opened it on your PC. If you decide to open it, you'd be very unwise to allow it any access it requests like Contacts or Safari, or dog forbid, allow it to install anything. Given the closed eco system on a non-jailbroken iPad you should be totally fine. The system is built with security in mind from the ground up, not as an after thought. General good practice still stands. If the sender is no one you've ever heard of and is neither a mail you expect or a response to an email you've sent, I'd just bin it and empty the trash. If it's from someone important they'll re-attempt or contact you another way. Even if you do read the mail in iOS then, as above, you'd be extremely unlucky to be vulnerable to the <1%. It goes without saying if it's an untrusted or unknown sender, never open any kind of attachment or view any movie or click any link, never reply, head straight to trash and then put the bins out. If your iPad is jailbroken, good luck, it could be anything
  10. The sit really nicely, good choice.
  11. You havent heard the latest then, the new stuff can target Macs, scared the hell out of me. I was just stirring, I take sensible precautions. Wipe clean keyboard, private browsing, antibacterial hand wipes....
  12. Well I wouldn't normally condone this but... I give you Kate Beckinsale (or "our lass" as she's known in my house)
  13. Congratulations! Is this just closer to a particular award winning distillery? Seems like some sort of group buy/free give away is in order
  14. What's a virus? Sent from my iMac
  15. Can't believe I'm writing this but... Aside from the kit cost here, what's the big number at the end when you've got a proper outfit like Abbey/Horsham to do the work for you and it's all spot on, sorted?
  16. I'm sure there'll be a manufacturer recommended one you can find on the Sony website. The Hong Kong ebay special is what I've got for my Pioneer, works a treat! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Rear-View-Reverse-Camera-for-Nissan-350Z-Fairlady-/260792854518?ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:GB:3160
  17. It was the software developer conference so no gadgets. Liked the look of the Continuity stuff for those of us with multiple devices. Loved the ability to make and take calls from OSX using your iPhone as a relay. Metal could really see mobile gaming take a leap forward. It feels like it's only a matter of time before Apple brings it's CPU manufacture in house again. The power of the mobile devices is going through the roof, must be beating a path for desktop machine uses? Didn't wet my pants over iOS 8 but the "voice text" messaging could be a laugh and it's about time they sorted out the photo cloud sharing thing to keep the versions you want and not the stuff you don't. Solid update I think. Wonder when the betas will be available???
  18. That's an interesting solution. Thanks. It's not so much that I want Oakley, it's just they seem to offer products which take a pounding and don't look like a rejected prop from Dodgeball. Ta
  19. I hate to lower the tone but those pit girls look like all kinds of fun
  20. Yeah man, the state should run all the other big stuff too, power, utilities, public transport. They should be by the people for the people! ¡Viva la revolución socialista!
  21. I know there are some sporty types on here and I am hoping you can recommend some tough & waterproof & prescription eyewear. Neither I, nor my eyes, like contacts and sports are getting more difficult the less I can see sharply at distance beyond the length of my arm. What I need is something which is first tinted, but I can also play footy in (Edgar Davis is my hero), go swimming in at the beach but not deep sea diving, mountain biking, karting, skydiving, rollerblading - the whole 90s tampax advert experience Ideally I'd like a solution with replaceable lenses, so I can upgrade as my eyes downgrade. They must be able to take an impact. I don't mind spending on this as it's something which is very important. So far only Oakley's Jacket products seem to be in the right ballpark in terms of quality, which is fine, but I was wondering if anyone has any experiences that may be useful before I spend my hard earned. Ta. PS - I'm not having someone laser my eyeballs.
  22. I like Netflix, as stated above, it's not the broadest or newest selection in the world but there's enough and it's very good value. If you've got a PS3 sitting around, it couldn't be easier. Even if you don't, an Apple TV is a cheap solution and obviously that brings iTunes content to the party if you want to buy or rent something new in particular, which isn't on Netflix. I think it's a top service for the price and I can only assume they'll be expanding their content as new media deals are struck.
