    328 - Back on the market!

    Using your Mobile!!

    I believe in terms of hands free, you have to have it set up so it auto answers the call.. most phones have this facility..... some of the wire ones do come with an answer button as part of the wire, i think these are ok as its just one button, rather that looking at a phone for the right button...

    Buy your performance cars sooner than later

    think Steve has a point on the emission in homes...... but i do think retial companies need to be given a kick up the behind, it is they who leave numerous lights on in windows of shops and office buildings, which if turned off would go some way to helping the problem. Working in Windsor at...
