When I'm cleaning a Portasol dehorner, it is just the top I unscrew and clean the wee hole in the scoop? Was doing two for a neighbour today and it hadn't the same 'sharpness' I suppose you could call it, as ours has. It just didn't seem to heat as much.
So looking at the two of them now and wondering how do I fcuk them up the least

Took you up wrong there naughto. Thought you were asking how much the car would be worth if you were looking to buy it........

Ya worth doing for piece of mind I suppose but as said they are non interference so if it does snap it wont do any damage. They're cheap to do aswell as timing belts go so it's really up to yourself, less than 250 would be what i'd be thinking. Out of interest when was it last done? As i know men that have driven on original toyota timing belts for an awful long time without any bother. With regards the car your as far on keep it as you won't get a more reliable and simple run about no matter what ya upgrade to :cool:

My Paypal account got hacked and all the money in my account taken before I realised. Some wankshaft in Asia I assume as all the payments were in Chinese symbols. :mad:

Have to commend the customer service though, card cancelled, new one on the way and Paypal refund should be done in a couple of days too.

Had you actually bought anything from China in the past, or did they get it through the Pay Pal system?
Quite worrying.

PayPal don't hang around with this sh1te happens to there customers and it's only right to.
I used to send my younger brother money when he moved to the queens crountry a few yrs back as he was getting it hard to get work.
I sent quite a bit until I got an email frim they saying that I had to send my passport copy of my address a pint of blood you name it they wanted it and if I didn't I would be reported to revenu for money laundering. Got it sorted in the end but any thing over 2 grand they start asking questions.
I only used them as avoids bank charges.

I use PayPal very little. The last time I used it was through Groupon to buy a powerbank for the phone. That site could have been dodgy so I'm going to email them about it just in case.

often get emails saying they are from paypal looking for info like bank account etc, total scams, had an issue with a payment before and paypal sorted it out. Did you discover it had been hacked or did paypal?

Can't do much about it from here. I can't imagine what would have happened if I was away from home or anything! I'm just glad I keep very little money money in that bank account as it's a day to day spending one.

(Nothing at all to do with spending it all online otherwise, nope...:o)

Wankshaft- /wæŋk/ʃɑːft/

Noun. A contemptible person. Derived from the words '****' and 'shaft' which to combine to indicate a person who is able to be wanked off in entirety i.e. A complete dick.

''That wankshaft over there tried to feel my arse so I kneed him in the goolies''

I deal with paypal on the website and find it very honest and secure, any messing and you get your money back. It really is a good service.. I have stripe as the CC payment, from what I've seen it's also a good system - started by two young irish lads too... Coining it I'd say !!

Working on a roof a few weeks ago and they would try to take the sandwhich out your hand . I'd say they weren't used to company up there and didn't like us in their personal space !

The gulls in question are the Great Blacked Backed gull(by far the biggest species) - not the small yolks that follow ploughs and silage mowers inland. The GBB gull rarely comes inland and usually hangs out around sea-birds colonies snacking on Puffins and other smaller sea-birds. They do occasionally attack small or weak lambs but twould be a rare enough event as they prefer "seafood" most of the time.
