Adam Easy Wishes Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 As a general rule, is Gumtree more used than Craigslist in the UK?Yes.And John is correct about West Africans (let's not stereotype just Nigerians) - they fucking love to buy your stuff for LOADS OF MONEY provided you can send it to their niece/nephew/son/daughter/wife/husband in their home country.

keeno Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Anyone know the phone number for the TV licensing place? It's nigh on impossible to find on their website.Registered for one online a few weeks ago, no email with it, no payments from my bank account yet either, but I don't know if that is because it's not been taken out yet or if it hasn't gone through. Don't fancy paying twice either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 If I download music from iTunes using my iPhone, is there a way to transfer it onto my computer so I can also put the tracks onto my iPod? Or do I have to download it again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Easy Wishes Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 When your iPhone is plugged into iTunes, right click on it where it appears in the left hand column and click 'Transfer Purchases'. Should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I think if you buy something on your iPhone now it actually asks you if you want to transfer it when you next plug in. That's what it did last time for me anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue Denim.. Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Dunno, but i hear they really dig them both in Nigeria.If you stick them both into Google trends and look at Britain, it looks like Gumtree gets a lot more hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 How long will a cooked chicken stay fresh for if it's kept in the fridge?The NHS and FSA suggests it's safe to eat for 48 hours. They tend to err on the side of caution though and I reckon 3-4 days would be fine. But if you get a dose of the shits don't blame me...Food Standards Agency - Eat well, be well - Storing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Thanks Chris. I'll probably stick to 2 days then. I'm very cautious with food, as soon as it reaches it's sell by date, it's in the bin. Ok, 2 more then I'm done with the questions:1- is it illegal to smoke when you're driving? Surely if you've got one hand on the wheel and the other holding a fag, it's driving without due care and attention2- anyone know a good place to get a big scratch on my car repaired and roughly how much it would cost?

I got my car fixed at James Conn on St. Clair St (next to Morrisons on King St), admittedly it was a few years ago, but they did a top job. Cost difficult to guesstimate....depends on how deep the scratch is, where it is, will it need a respray etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 2- anyone know a good place to get a big scratch on my car repaired and roughly how much it would cost?Cost is dependant totally on the type of paint (metallic etc.) and the size of the scratch/panel.For pretty good prices and fast turnaround, Ellon Autobody (on Logie Street at Tipperty (so just before you get to Ellon)) are pretty good.For some of the best quality work in and around Aberdeen I'd suggest:-Castle Park Autobody Ltd.Unit 20Castle St, Castlepark Industrial Estate, ELLON, Aberdeenshire AB41 9RF013587 25852or Kinghorn BodyshopBlackburn Business Park, Blackburn, Aberdeen AB21 0PS(01224) 790009 I've seen work from all 3 that I've listed above and the last 2 are particularly good. When getting the Supra fully resprayed (some day ) I'll be going to one of those two for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 What is the strongest adhesive money can buy, and is readily available in shops? I'm talking like No More Nails sort of stuff rather than a tube of superglue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pretty long scratch and it's right down to the metal, some wee toerag keyed / knifed it last year, one long scratch about 18 inches right across the bonnet. Been meaning to get it fixed for about a year, I just filled it in with primer and sealed it stop it rusting and then never did anything else with it. Thinking of trading in soon so figure it's probably worth getting that repaired first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Jack Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 1- is it illegal to smoke when you're driving? Surely if you've got one hand on the wheel and the other holding a fag, it's driving without due care and attentionGrey area I think. There's no specific offence for smoking, like there is for mobile phones, but if you get a bastard cop he could decide that you weren't in sufficient control of the vehicle. Same as he could decide that you shouldn't be eating an apple, or your seat is too reclined so you can't hold the steering wheel properly etc etc. It would be down to his judgement but I doubt it would go as far as court.

Thinking of trading in soon so figure it's probably worth getting that repaired first.Kinghorn is absolutely extortionate, i hit the passenger rear side a year or so ago and the scratch was across three panels. Wasnt particularly deep but in total they quoted me nearly a grand. After pissing me pants i promptly left. I ended up going through a company that Halfords use, they turn up twice a week to the Torry shop and you book your car in advance. The boys at halfords take out a wee diagram and let you know how much for each panel, or in your case, for the bonnet.It cost me about 300 pound but that was for 3 panels or so, it was pretty reasonable so worth checking it out. I couldnt see any marks after, although the Kinghorn boy said it was a poor job....but he would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
