    This happened last year but a women was at halfords with her kids getting a bulb changed it was an audi q7 only about 2 years old at the time. Now the halfords guy was well into the job when I seen it I just walked passed and was like wtf. He genuinely had half the front of the car stripped and sitting on the ground he looked like he was in so over his head it wasn't funny. Id say they are delighted with having tp a guy that actually knows what he is at :)

    I wish I did play on ice, but even the Dundalk place got shut down. There are #IceForIreland petitions going around. I play inline, it's very much the same, just with inline skates and a hard plastic puck instead of ice skates and a rubber puck.

    Ah reminds me of when I was younger, when roller blades were the thing. i remember swaping "ABEC 3 Terminator" bearings to some guy for a hockey stick. They were excellent bearings and I only used the two outside wheels took the middle two out and gave him the bearings so he could have good bearings. This was 18 or 19 years ago so they were really good bearings back then.

    I skate now and again, and the ones i have in my blades are bones swiss bearings, serious things to go so they are

    anyways that's my two cents :pac:

    Mine were so good when new the Christmas I got them I put them on and rolled all the way down the road without having to push myself. Couldn't believe it. The ones I used before were a spare pair of girls blades that my friend had for some reason.

    Sliced my finger something fierce trying to fix a leaky fuel pump. I really am a menace to myself when I go near a car :pac:

    I sliced my finger really bad as well a few months ago while cleaning a oil sump pan. Where the oil pick up strainer goes there is a metal piece bolted to pan and that sharp bástard done the damage.

    If there on heads you could flash your rear fog light a few times but if there dips are blinding you because they are not set right I suppose there is not much they will do about that.

    Best thing to do is pull in and let them pass.

    For fog I thought they were spotlights that you turn on to look cool :pac:
    Ah no as said the best thing to do is just pull in when safe to do so.
