    Do some people seriously think that dual carriage ways are motorways?

    There always is someone driving 80-100 km/h before they get to a dual carriage way, and as soon as they're on it they go 120 + and when they get off of it, I catch up with them again doing 80-100 km/h... This happens pretty much every single time.

    That wouldn't bother me. What bothers me is somebody going slow on a road with a hard sholder, won't even pull in to let cars drive by. If they want to drive slow that's their buisness but you have to think of other drivers. They think they are great drivers as well. If they are so great they would pull into hard sholder and let everybody pass.

    Yoink!

    Cheers for that. Bought a new key case last year for the spare key, and it never came with a logo, so it's naked, cold and alone.

    Another cheers , I need two. Mine never had them.

    On the subject of keys I think I have pulling of SKC codes figured out. Not sure on which models yet. Need some guinea pigs. Got a pile of numbers off my own van but it has a seperate immobilser unit and can't find the numbers. Pretty sure I know how too get the standard immo 3 codes.

    LED's all the whey, there are 8LED clusters with the whole unit you can buy as the OEM ones on Fords rust like mad due to poor design also.

    Which one of ye said ye ate 1/5 of an easter egg? Supergurrier, I think it was you. A fifth? Really? Once I start an easter egg, I won't be satisfied until it's all gone, usually eaten within the one sitting :P

    Poles are fasting until we bless the food that we bring to church on Holy Saturday :pac:
    Baskets containing a sampling of Easter foods are brought to church to be blessed on Holy Saturday. The basket is traditionally lined with a white linen or lace napkin and decorated with sprigs of boxwood (bukszpan), the typical Easter evergreen. Poles take special pride in preparing a decorative and tasteful basket with crisp linens, occasionally embroidered for the occasion, and boxwood and ribbon woven through the handle. Observing the creativity of other parishioners is one of the special joys of the event.

    While in some older or rural communities, the priest visits the home to bless the foods, the vast majority of Poles and Polish Americans visit the church on Holy Saturday, praying at the Tomb of the Lord (the fourteenth and final Station of the Cross). The Blessing of the Food is, however, a festive occasion. The three-part blessing prayers specifically address the various contents of the baskets, with special prayers for the meats, eggs, cakes and breads. The priest or deacon then sprinkles the individual baskets with holy water.
