    I don't advise a haircut, man. All hairdressers are in the employment of the government. Hair are your aerials. They pick up signals from the cosmos and transmit them directly into the brain. This...

    I can't say I'm a fan of Time Team, but they did introduce the world to Prof. Alice May Roberts for which I am eternally grateful.

    While I'd personally go for a Red Submariner, I wouldn't necessarily recommend one as a daily wearer unless you're happy owning vintage watches. To most people, a £10k red sub is pretty much the...

    If, by some glorious chance, it turns out that you make a Precista version of a Caribbean 1000 ref 702, I'd like to place my order now.

    Edit: Unfortunately it seems unlikely that it would be a...

    Both front doors must open from inside and out to pass an MOT. Back doors only need to open from the outside.

    In my limited experience, I would say the majority of damage done to a watch that is stopped and started frequently is to the threads on the screw down crown. Hence, I tend to wear one watch for...

    Yup. Inexperienced rider being too stiff on the bike gets target fixation and freezes causing his own accident. Far too common.

    I tend to go with leathers these days, currently by Teknic and RST. The RST ones are well vented so aren't uncomfortable unless it's stinking hot but then I'd rather be a bit hot than pick bits of...

    I run an e46 330ci which I absolutely love. I really think older BMWs are an absolute bargain. You can buy them for peanuts and provided you use good independent garages (or do it yourself) and use...

    There are no rules when buying off a dealer beyond the Sale of Good act which is basically "fit for purpose" and even that depends on what you negotiate. Caveat Emptor.

    I was inadvertently on the news when I was working on the ill-fated Beagle2 mars lander project. Only because they were interviewing my boss and I happened to be spannering some gubbins in the...

    I used one. It turns out that if I'd just contacted the original seller and claimed, they'd have probably just paid out but instead I paid a solicitor £400 to do it for me. :BangHead:

    I've found with agency advertised jobs, if they actually exist, is that you are 10 times better off finding the actual company and applying directly. You can usually figure out who they are if you...

    I'd probably go for something that's already appreciating. Maybe an air cooled 911, especially if it was a 2.7 carrera rs replica. or maybe something older, like a Lotus Elan or Healey 3000. Provided...

    On the road I tend to drive/ride within the limit that I want to be able to stop in the distance I can see. That generally keeps the points low and the No Clams Bonus high. But then I don't need to...

    In my experience, acoustic guitars especially seem to really depend on the guitar in question and it doesn't much matter who makes it. Sure, the more you pay the better your odds of getting a good...

    That can be a leaky exhaust joint allowing air into the pipe but it can also be an indication of running too weak, especially if you've swapped the pipe and noticed a drop in power at all. Weak is...

    A manx would make about 50bhp, a 500cc BSA Goldstar made about 42. 27bhp is 250cc territory. Personally, if my ageing back and wrists were to suffer clip ons and rear sets, I'd want a 1 in front of...
