is it actually possible to make money from doing online questionnaires?
i'm not on about millions, just the odd few quid here and there..It took me about 9 months of doing around one questionairre a week with Harris Interactive to get a £15 Debenhams voucher. I could have received some typical freebie tat (pocket calculator, cheap R/C car etc.) earlier, but I wanted some readies. Voucher was given to my mother for her birthday, so whilst I didn't actually make any money, I saved myself fifteen quid by not getting her a birthday present.
Each questionairre took between ten and twenty minutes to complete, multiple choice, no writing. Eventually you could learn what options would not lead to further questions as they all followed roughly the same path. The last questions were always the same (age, sex, location, education etc.) and annoyingly it wouldn't save that info, but you could write down anything if you wasn't that keen on the company who were asking questions.
From what I remember it didn't lead to a marked increase in spam emails either.

Black Cab SN03 SUX, some advice:
Don't scream "If you've got no fucking brakes you deserve to get fucking knocked off" at cyclists if you don't like being called a cunt in return.
Learn to recognise what a brake looks like on a bike. I have one.
Don't drive like an utter cock, accelerating as hard as you can and moving right out across the centre-line in the road because a bike has overtaken you.
Don't pay a couple of hundred quid for an easily memorable numberplate if you're going be an agressive wanker on the road. You're being reported. -

I use it semi-regularly and never had any problems, until today where a Fiesta suddenly started to change lane without indicating, luckily he wasn't going too fast so I was able to get past him, but it was a little hairy to say the least.
Wellington Arch at the top of Consitution Hill and bottom of Park Lane is much worse for me, although I suppose drivers aren't used to cyclists there as everyone goes straight through the middle. -

Just got back from a weekend in Cambridge.
Started off being aghast at the amount of bad locks/locking/free locking, and ended the weekend being a little sheepish about getting out my 8kg Krypto chain and Fahg.I grew up near Cambridge and spent my formative years drinking there, it beggars belief how many nights out you'd see people turn up at the Junction having come from town or the Station and just dump the obviously nicked bikes down and go in. That's probably why despite the thousands of bikes around you rarely ever see any really nice ones.

One time, Brick Lane Bikes broke into my house and took a massive shit behind the lounge door so when I opened it it all smeared into the carpet. True story.
A kid who lived in my street when I was younger broke into a neighbours house and took a shit in their Playstation before setting their bed on fire. True stories.
Don't think he works in BLB though. Just sayin'

Currently a Charge Plug as the main bike, slowly being upgraded to be lighter and stonger and better than it came out of the shop.
Also an Archie Wilkinson speedway frame being built into a beater and an old diamondback BMX that's being stripped and rebuilt like my first BMX was. That probably won't be started till the summer. -
One pack of ReStraps, still with original packaging.
One was fitted to a pedal and tried indoors but I didn't like them. All fixtures and fittings included.
If you want to know what they look like, check hereThese won't fit track style pedals (unless they have boltholes front and rear) but work fine with BMX pedals.
They cost £16.50 from Tokyo Fixed, I would like £10 for them.
Collection from SE1 during the day, or WC1 during the evenings. Happy to deliver anywhere central-ish during the day as well. Postage outside London possible at cost, they're not heavy so it wouldn't be much.

Can't find a way to link the image but here's a link - http://www.golf2tfsi.de/html/mai__10.html
Golf Mk.5 in a Mk.2
Wheels are too big for my liking. Standard GTi 18" would have been better than the LE 19" imo
The interior of that is a bit like what VW in South Africa do with their CitiGolf

I'm gonna get flamed for this, but:
I love the normal Panda but the Alessi edition is superb. Having borrowed one for a week or so, I think that a real-world situation, the Fiat Panda is one of very very very few cars I would actually buy new/nearly new. It really is the perfect multipurpose city car.
What's with the 80's Metro Sport wheel trims on that Panda?
I've seen 'em up there with speed guns before, zapping car drivers.
