  1. Hopefully someone on here might be able to help me. I have a decent Iptv app but with Virgin as the ISP and they seem to have put a block on it. If I play it through my phone hotspot or through the Virgin via a VPN then it plays fine. Is there anything I can do about this or do I just need to put up with it? Also is there a decent VPN I could use? I only get 10GB per month on the one I have just now.

    Shops that think it’s a good idea to replace carrier bags with fucking paper bags. We live in one of the wettest countries ever and next thing you know there's my shopping all over the pavement and I’m chasing a bloody apple down the street. The absolute c***s charge for those bags as well. 

    I like them, handy for flinging all the empty tinnies in then straightening the recycling bin.

    Nothing wrong with liking so called 'easy listening' from before you were born if it's the good stuff like Tony Bennett or Sinatra's Capitol recordings but with Tam Cowan it's always the lowest common Humperdinck or Tony Christie or Christian denominator. Also why has he no love or knowledge of the history of Motherwell. He whitters on about to the 1991 cup win yet never mentions them being champions in 1932 (a greater achievement) or indeed their first cup win in 1952. 

    Probably because he was there, no?

    Cheers lads, will pass that on to him and will watch him do sweet fa about it. He seems to have got it into his head that keeping the heat at a constant higher temperature will see thousands coming out his bank each month 

    Unless it's absolutely freezing outside his house will not drop to 8 degree. The thermostat is just a switch really so he is just switching his heating on for a couple of hour a night.

    Can I ask your driving style? Warping the front discs is easy done if you're driving a laden van, subject it to some fairly heavy braking (coming to a stop after coming off a downhill motorway slip for example) and then sit with your foot on the brakes while you wait for the lights to go green. The heat dissipates from the discs at differing rates between the areas exposed to the air and that behind the pads, causing them to warp and the wobble on braking as you describe. I think especially moreso with a Vauxhall where the dics are probably made of reconstituted tinfoil. It's an expensive lesson I learned many years ago - the handbrake (that usually operates on the cooler rear brakes) is not just for parking.

    That’s exactly how I’d drive it. I have had 2 other vivaros though and never had this problem. 
    Just need to change them and try that.

    cheers

  6. Need advice with my brakes on my van, think I might need to bite the bullet and hand it into a garage.

    Steering wheel was vibrating when braking so changed the disks and pads but after 6 months it's came back. Anybody no what it could be and is it as simple as nuts and bolts to do.

    It's a 2019 vivaro if that helps.

    Cheers
