"Treating serious issues with deliberately inappropriate humour; flippant.

Brat's joke about Heather's picture was just him being facetious. "

Ah, I understand now. It's presumably the brand name for the filter that was fitted to the engine. You can just make it out on the cap in the photo.

Anyone else having refresh/posts not showing up problems? :?

sometimes this site is achingly slow

What is the biggest problem is having to log in every hour or so.

Can't say I've ever had that problem, do you have "log me in automatically each visit" ticked when you log in?

I normally browse this site either from my laptop or piephone. But if I use the desktop to use this site and then switch back to the piephone, I have to re-login (piephone only). Very strange.

Different ip I guess, it's the forum not the machine that is making you re-login.

I don't have that problem between iPhone and pooter.

On a separate note, I've just settled down to watch a DVD I've just bought and I had to sit through three trailers and an advert. I think I might just download in future.

It's a PITA if you've bought a legitimate DVD and have to sit through that crap. Given that people who watch pirated movies don't watch the FACT stuff, and it's usually removed from the pirate movie (so I'm told) means it's just there to annoy the genuine dvd viewers.

Totally annoys legal customers. If they do that on a DVD I play I walk out of the room and do things until the menu comes up. It guarantees I do not see any of the trailers. If they want people to watch them make them skippable. So you can at least watch them. If they are not you get into the habit like me of doing something else. So annoy the legal customer.

It's why when possible I use VLC to watch a dvd, it skips it :)

The new one that annoys me is putting the stuff in in the starting sequence for the film
