Title: Just a 'Hi'
Post by: illmanors on December 21, 2012, 01:25:42 PM: Hey all,

I have decided to join the fun on here and look forward to learning more on blending and additives etc.

I live in a cave in Norfolk England.

Drive a tdi shed on Kentucky fried veg oil and have done at a 50/50 blend with derv all year round for 60k miles.

Time had come for a new petrol inclusive blend. results will be posted.

Do you have a FPHE fitted? In which case there will be an upper percentage limit before you get vapour lock.

Welcome to the forum and wiki ... any interesting info you have on blending will be welcomed on the wiki, it's an area which could do with expanding.

Have you seen Prometheus?
Just got it on DVD, for £6, so I guess its not the best film of the year.

Got four tins of beer, donated to me, to drink while I watch it.

I'm a diehard alien fan (the original is my favourite movie of all time) so saw Promethius in IMAX 3D when it was released. What a disappointing pile of poo! Enjoy the beer at least...

Didn't realise I would start a film review thread up lol

Yeah, seen the film
Title: Re: Just a 'Hi'
Post by: greasemonkey on December 23, 2012, 12:25:29 AM: Oh yeah, sorry. Hi Illmanors.

Well, definitely a watch again, but not good enough, especially for the big name actressess. Should have been a lot better.
Pitch Dark, with a bigger budget.
Not one of Ridley Scotts Classics.

Post by: Tony on December 23, 2012, 05:32:09 AM: A little sad really. Did expect a lot more from Scott.

Post by: Rotary-Motion on December 23, 2012, 08:09:55 AM: well cloud atlas i will need to watch again it was very deep with alot of famous actors, so many different time zones and years and stories running in paralall at the same time, very clever...
