maybe this isnt the place to post this but it might be of use to someone. i was diagnosed with long covid recently by my GP after chest xrays, cardio ecg, 24hr ecg and a number of asthma tests but nothing untoward showed up. but they did acknowledge that my breathing capacity was 50% what it should be. so i just accepted that i was stuck with it. anyway, i mentioned it to a guy a few weeks ago who is very into alternative medicine and a vegan. so i was naturally sceptical! apparently, his friend had long covid and after some research, started taking a low dose nicotene patch. it seems that he improved drastically and is now much better. i didnt bother following it up as it seemed a bit fanciful, but my wife suggested i give it a go. so i got a pack of step 3 7mg patches and stuck them on. only four days in, and i realised this morning that my breathing is almost normal! i'm going to carry on for two weeks and then stop. however, if you try them and you drop dead, dont blame me. but if youre getting on a bit like me and struggling with it, give it a go. there is anecdotal evidence on google but nothing science based as yet, but i assume some research is going on. although i'm still unable to lift my 750-4 engine onto the workbench! but maybe i'm just old...

I do have it and struggle at times with my lungs, I will be interested in how it works out for you over a period of time. We are coming into spring and summer though which does make a big difference for me.

The argument for the Hondaman hybrid system is there is virtually no arcing at the points making them last 10s of thousands of
miles with no maintenance only the odd lube of the felt now and then. If there is a fault on the electronics it can be reverted back
to the standard system at the side of the road in a couple of minutes. I still run the original system but would go for the
Hondaman if going electronic.

Please fill this one out it can only be a benefit to have nationwide rules against the lottery that it is now when you can travel from on area to another and be under a different set of rules and picking up PCNs simply because you missed reading one sign out of all those that now litter our roads. https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/LL7S32/

I don't see as it actually makes any difference unless I am missing something as the swing arm has open ends so the wheel can
be removed anyway. Possibly a production line thing for getting a gun on the nut.

Cut a decent sized slot about 5mm across the hex and use a piece of 5mm steel in the slot and turn it with a fair sized adjustable spanner whilst holding the jaws of the adjuster hard up against the hex. It will come out.

As we were market and show traders before retirement we didn't carry a card reader for years and finally ended up getting one. The difference it made wasn't worth talking about we made so few card transactions and it was really a waste of money and effort. Especially when working in the middle of a field in the middle of nowhere where a reliable phone signal is as rare as a working card reader. Then the pandemic came and went and the increase since in cash only traders has grown massively. People are also realising a cashless society hands over all control to the already over greedy bankers and gov. Cash payments are on the rise. Well by not having the card option those show traders lost £100 of sales to me yesterday of which they would have given £1.50 to the bank. As they were loading the gear back into the van wonder which they would have preferred ? Now those sales from me will probably go to some eBay seller who is slowly killing them anyway. Trying to go back to cash is raging at the wind.
Yes they lost £100 of sales but that £1.50 would have come out of the profits on that sale and depending on the item the profit could be very little. It may not have been so bad if in 2018 it hadn't been made illegal to add a surcharge for those wanting to use a card, the choice then would have been the customers cash or card, instead of forcing the hit on the trader.

I was there yesterday. Absolutely rammed - the post covid thinning out is over. Bought a few tools - amazing that many stands didn’t take cards and there was no cash machine at the showground. Didn’t see a single sohc of note. Looks like this show has got staying power after all.
It is a growing thing cash transactions are on the increase. Small businesses are fed up with paying for card transactions.

Like it or loathe it, I say what I think and I will not be bullied by those telling me to wind my neck in or or get back in my box or by the petty insults and
accusations.
People will either accept this or not that is their choice and I will not bend to the mob.
Neither do I collude or collaborate with any other members on this forum for those who think I do.
