If everyone just worried about themselves the world would be a worser place than it is today - imagine that.
Yes of course - but in relation to jumping reds I think not

- Perception of other road users
Whilst I may be able to manage the risk of crossing the lights without putting myself or others at risk, this action may give rise to a perception amongst other road users that I believe I am above the law. I prefer not to foster that perception as I believe it increases risk to cyclists as road users in general.
^ This.
Sorry I don't buy this reason at all
- Perception of other road users
-
There are a couple of reasons that I don't do it.
Safety
In the majority of instances I could jump a red light whilst minimising the risk to myself and others. However, some instances may arise that I could not anticipate that would put myself or others at risk.Perception of other road users
Whilst I may be able to manage the risk of crossing the lights without putting myself or others at risk, this action may give rise to a perception amongst other road users that I believe I am above the law. I prefer not to foster that perception as I believe it increases risk to cyclists as road users in general.Predictability
This ties to the two points above. When other road users start to act unpredictably it increases the risk of road use to me. Given the expectation that road users should wait at red lights, jumping the light is inherently unpredictable and therefore increases risk.
It can be a bit of a drag waiting at lights, but I commute 30km a day and I would estimate that at most it costs me 10 minutes. Set against the points above, I can tolerate that.
A post full of assumptions — If you just worried about yourself and stopped being so self righteous then the world would be a better place.

"Visa debit cards
But any debit card that operates within the VISA scheme also carries cover. Visa says it has strong rules in place to protect cardholders, and you should contact the card issuer."

Just to add to this, it only applies to credit cards. Not debit cards.
A little know fact is that is DOES apply to VIsa debit cards

I got one of my 1210's down from the loft, plugged it in and it's only coming out of one channel.
I got the other one down. Same bloody thing. A crappy turtable works perfectly but not the technics.
They've been up there a good few years. Any ideas?
Sounds like the phono cables have gone - it's pretty easy to replace them - just a bit of soldering needed. I did both of mine to replace them with better cables.

I dont merge the emails in fear of it doubling shit.
Ive been luck so far and everything has always seemed to go together. Not that I'm saying that its always been smooth sailing but I'm good now
Use Imap on all your devices then you won't have to "merge" emails
I fix it all in Google contacts and then put that on every device.
^this - same with calender
