Doh :compcrash: save as you go along
Don't get distracted by un-organised numpties and close down a tab before saving the doc.
Not a big doc, but at 17:45, I could have done without the extra re-write:rant:

Too late today Bib, I'll have a look tomorrow, as I didn't shut my PC down at work, just locked it
I'd hoped it was in the clipboard, as I'd copied and pasted it, but no :(
Most of it was re written, but I thought the first draft was written better than the 2nd.
Not important for me, but one of my team
it'll be in there somewhere. tiz a long time since i've had to recover files.
andrewsmith
31-01-12, 08:20 PM

Autosave is on constantly for me. Learned it again after I wiped out a whole spreadsheet

Mavi you get you wheels off Rob?
maviczap
31-01-12, 08:46 PM
Yep, and some 2nd hand OEM discs to go with my GSXR front end.
Robs wheels will go on, as they are better than the originals, which has saved me a load of work.
The originals will be my track wheels with some slightly sticker rubber, when I can afford the hoops.
Might get the originals sprayed sometime
i is board.
but good news is i dont need a new bat for the bike. charged it up prior to sunday and its fine.first thumb of the starter and it fired into life. not been started since beg november. was itching to take it out but i couldn't be arzzed cleaning it afterwords.
andrewsmith
31-01-12, 08:58 PM
Good man
The gold ones are in a similar state to mine so should save me an arm changing tyres
Bib
Mine have lived in central heated luxury since Mid december learned that one twice the hard way. I've got the itch, but it aint turning a wheel until the tanks done and the lines are replaced
maviczap
31-01-12, 09:08 PM
Plus got the rear infil panel (above the light) which has been done in Sonic silver for 99p + £5 p&p
So its going to be a very silver machine soon, but those grey powder coated will off set the silver quite nicely.
Slice of reheated pizza & a glass of wine to chill from a whole day of admin
my bike is all good to go and i'm itching to get out but i think it might snow before the week is out :-(

Score mate.
What you ended up with?
Wideboy
03-02-12, 01:18 PM
It's a 2 tier Clark one but was unbranded, both tiers together were half the price of the Clark top tier alone so mega cheap. Whipped it straight up
andrewsmith
03-02-12, 01:31 PM

My clarke wasn't cheap for what it is
Wideboy
03-02-12, 01:35 PM

I thought it was too cold to do your bike anyway... can you get a day back or o/t for going in?

Got half back minute i rang the boss.
O/t is a raw point along with the works mobile
I've got a works mob. Since it's a 24hr site some people used to think it was acceptable to phone me in the very early hours. I used to demand overtime, now I don't get o/t so it just stays on silent 11 - 7am (very handy android app that one!)

The phone request/ now pleading nature of the email hopefully does something

its not exactly what i'd call big but it will do for now, got it from halfrauds 60 quid down from 119 (i think). B&Q had a nice black torq one that was slightly bigger for extra 5 quid but out of stock everywhere.
was looking at some BIG! ones on ebay but none within reasonable picking up distance
