He joined more because his career prospects were pretty bleak . Nobody not even Army themselves knew how bad Ireland was going to be . It was a largely new era in guerrilla warfare which defied normal operation procedure. It wasn't just Naive teenagers getting thrown in a the deep end ...

For all the people saying what about the bombings our and other Governments help participate in that kill innocent children in far flung countries well what can I do about it please? Have a peace march? That will really help sway our government to take notice of what the people want-just...

It has now gone up to 22 perished , you become scared to look at the reports.

Woke up in the middle of the night thinking about it , as at around 12pm last night , the Media was reporting only one person had died. Went onto my laptop around 4am last night and seen 19 dead, I actually thought it was a mistake. I am not particularly religious , but had to say a...

Thanks guys :) will give the alarm thing a try , but I cannot remember seeing any kind of siren in Engine bay when I done oil cooler change and it was well stripped at front, also never seen a light on dash at all. Just thinking I could fit ANY alarm if I do it the way I am thinking. Also...

SWorry have only just got back from being away and had no phone signal :) My van is a 2008 - it has a sticker on window saying it has a MB alarm , but no flashing lights, or sensors I can see as such . If I kick the tyres with some big boots will it go off ? How can I tell as such ?

Well I think the Queen whatever you think of the Royals etc, has dedicated her life to this country, so I personally admire and respect her, She is never going to be replaced as such with someone with as much dedication and commitment, she is certainly the last one of her kind, and had a dignity...

I am thinking of doing electrics in a few weeks , running all my accessories off a leisure battery ,linked to main battery via a Digital relay. Will run the following off it: Main Stereo/Tablet for sat nav. USB/fag lighter charging points. Small inverter for mainly laptop / power...

Fostering /Social Services , etc, do I suppose the best they can in what's a pretty difficult situation. The child that died a few years ago in Coventry hadn't been seen for ages ,even know S/S knew and were told by the school - they believed the Mother when she said that the child was in...

I never had kids but my sister has 3 , they all emigrated to Cyprus some years ago , and unfortunately split up , and the lad ended up living In London with his old man. His Dad is a businessman as such(and loaded) so never does or can do anything practical at all. I on the other hand am...

Re: the fostering issues. The reason the children cannot be hugged etc, is partially in case its seen as predatory , which I guess is a big concern for the social workers and the repercussions if they get the vetting wrong. But it is mainly because they don't want you forming an...

BD, all I can say is if you do try for Fostering in the future , be ready for a couple of years of serious intrusion in your lives. ANY kind of skeletons' in the closet will be found out, and they check all family members ,relationships, previous relationships marriages etc. You cannot...

"My Mrs is a teacher. She isn't allowed to physically comfort an upset child." My best friend and his missus spent nearly 2 years to foster a child , one of the things that I thought was sad , was that she could never hug them if they fell over and were crying or needed any comfort ,in case...

Thanks for advice :) Just checked it on the DVLA database and its come up as needing to be taxed the 01 August 2000! Hope they won't back date it, imagine that ? Had a bad RTA in 2000 and had my licence medically revoked for nearly 3 years, only had just bought the golf so never got to...

I got to admit it looks chunky, I fell in Love with pickups when I visited my Dad , who emigrated to the States , huge v8 engine beasts that sounded amazing . Years later bought a Land Rover, 110 HCP , but in this country , the permanent rain, means they are not too practical as a builders...

I have a Golf GTI, which has been garaged for 18 years, in my Mums name. It never got on SORN database and I obviously never have scrapped it as such. If I take it for an MOT, will it still come up on their computer do you think? And if not how do you go about re-registering it? It...

I bought a cheap ODBII Bluetooth scanner and a paid version of Torq, when I did my oil cooler change , it come up with nearly 60 faults , which went down to 7 which I just couldn't clear. It seemed to be totally Radom, a few of the same ones kept coming up though , and the van would be fine...

Well after having a little read up on net, a lot of places want log book to prove you are indeed the owner , which is fair enough, as people would hire a new car and simply clone the key and nick it later. They need your key to clone it , then reprogram the blank, which you have to provide...

Well as yet, the company has not got back to me anyway . Might get a quote from Merc as you never know. Always reluctant to spend lots of money on something I know isn't VFM, and replacement keys are one of them! Might just get a spare key cut instead , and spend the rest on a decent...

Well I did drive under a car park by me with about an inch clearance , so was going really slow, then about 25 meters in, the ceiling either was lower or the floor was higher as I hit the roof :( But lucky to only scratch it, but I thought if I had of had some of those rails at least it...
