Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 8, 2016 I used to get constant hunger when I used to take anti-depressants Ralphy!~!~!~ Â ... Was one of the main reasons for me stopping taking them, putting on the weight made me more depressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I weigh 9 stone, and eat an absolute shedload and i cant get full or put much weight on  It is very frustrating  To be honest Ralphy, you probably just think you're eating a shedload but, in reality, you're not.  I was the same as you a few years ago, I thought I was eating loads but stayed about 9 to 9.5 stone, sometimes even going below 9 stone.  At some point I gave myself a kick up the arse and started to record my eating habits and realised I wasn't actually eating all that much, it just seemed like I was.  These days I weigh about 11.5 stone from eating about 5-6 times a day.  Either that, or you've got AIDS.

Paid Members WWFChilli Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 8, 2016 I eat a shed load and never gain weight, always been around 10 stone, but I'm not constantly hungry. I'm assuming I just incinerate calories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slapnut Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Is aspartame as bad for you as people say it is? Â Or is the Facebook post I just saw about Diet Coke being worse for you than regular Coke just bollocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 8, 2016 I have a question.  I had my very first driving lesson today. A mate of mine took me out. But we were both under the mistaken belief that since he was insured on the car and had over three years driving, it was ok for me to drive his car supervised. The bike cops that stopped us said no that's not true. So they seized the car, which I paid £150 to get back. And we both either have to take 6 points on our licenses (which for me on a provisional would mean mine would be revoked) or go to court. The cop who busted us said there is some defence I can offer about not knowing that I wasn't insured or able to drive the car. Anyone know about this?

MungoChutney Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Even if he has over 3 years driving and is fully comp he still has to add anyone using the car under his supervision to his insurance. It'll almsit certainly go to court but I have to be totakl honesty, I don't fancy your chances. It's likely you'll get six points and he may be charged with knowingly let someone not insured drive his vehicle. Sorry to be a merchant of doom but this is a fairly bad situation to be in. I'd head over to the money saving expert forums if I were you, they have people really knowledgeable about insurance issues on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 8, 2016 I mean, we were doing less than 5mph on unpopulated back streets, displaying L plates. According to the internet, a magistrate has discretion to not give me points if I say, "I was told by the owner/insured driver that I was covered to drive". This is what they call a "special reasons" defence. Also I'm likely to be offered 6 points and a £300 fine, which I will reject and go to court. Magistrates are reasonable people in my experience.

MungoChutney Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 It's possibly worth going to court but I know from a friend's experience, in Scotland, that the owner of the car can find themselves right in the shit over it. Again, in my experience and from reading a lot about insurance when I also had a different problem,consideration isn't given to what was happening, I.e. speed etc because from their viewpoint you could still have caused some kind of RTA as an uninsured driver. I would definitely recommend seeking proper legal advice or at least from an insurance expert in the first instance. If you lose in court you could end up severely out of pocket.

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 8, 2016 Damn. So if I take the 6 points and they revoke my provisional (about a month after I got it) is that it? No driving for me? Â Revocation only applies where the offence that causes the points to number 6 or more is committed during the probationary period (2 years after passing your test). This means that if you obtain 6 points or more points before you have taken your test you can still pass your test and obtain your licence, but if you obtain any more points within 2 years of passing your test, your licence will be revoked. So since I can still take lessons and pass my test with 6 on a provisional, maybe it's best to just take them and the fine since the only way out of it would seem to be screwing over my mate.

MungoChutney Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Guy I know was done with similar on his provisional. He was fined and took the 6 points. Didn't have anything revoked but had to wait until the points were spent until he could sit his test iirc. Might be worth consulting a solicitor who specialises in road traffic law, could be pricey but a consultation will definitely be less than 300 quid. Â Edit: although if the advice above is correct I'd take the points and fine and then take my time learning so its not too long to worry about points after passing.

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted January 8, 2016 Alight, thanks for the advice. I'll chat to my mate and see what he's saying. The cops said we have to wait for their boss dude to decide what punishment we will we offered first, so don't have to worry about it for right now.
