Every know and then I have a great idea that even impresses me, this was one of those moments... the next one will be when the trailer is finished.


I want to know what kind of beach was it to make you think about making it. :msn4: :D

Southport , near liverpool, but then again I just panic if its out of sight, same reactions as when I cant' see the kids!

Where can you get these from? I've googled it but couldn't seem to find any. Are there any cheaper alternatives?

Try "Gene Berg locking shifter" or take a look at http://www.geneberg.com...and be prepared to be frustrated with the lack of pictures in their 'online catalogue'.

its a messed up world

but in short the bloke had jumped over his gate (mind you thats about 8 foot tall) landed dogs heard him and one managed to get his leg when he was trying to get back over the gate, very quickly after seeing them coming towards him, and did a fair amount of damage to the blokes leg. me mate phoned the police when he saw the blood on the floor outside his gate police came CCTV showed what had happened an the bloke who had broken in was found in hospital, arrested, etc.

but me mate got cautioned about the dogs at the end of it all, didnt loose them or anything, but they are guard dogs and there are plenty of signs saying watch out, so they were only did there job
