Midday Saturday [b]JANUARY 7TH[/b] at Mud Dock. As usual it's the first Saturday of every month at midday, parking is cheap with a huge Pay+Display right next door with loads of spaces. Setting up a stall is FREE, borrowing a table is FREE. Bringing your own table would be lovely of you.

At last! I have some fresh photos from the December Jumble to tempt you....

REALLY?

I used to start those rumours in the hope of meeting you. It took some serious stalking instead 🙁

Find a nice bike shop with some space outdoors, arrange advertising and some tables and they will come............but be warned if it becomes as good as the Bristle one, you will end up with a ludicrous saddle collection..........

*gets excited*

Anyone want to buy a Sturmey Archer-hubbed wheel for a hack city bike? I need to raise funds for a Tut-worn saddle.

Please come see me first if you're setting up a stall, I'm easy to find; very large and ugly. Please use the ( VERY CHEAP! ) Pay+Display and [b]NOT[/b] Mud Dock's car park. Set up is about 11.50. If you arrive early we're upstairs in the cafe having a [b]Cake and Coffee Morning[/b]. It's lush, come join us!

Haaaaang on. I'm large and ugly too. Don't bother me, bother the other large and ugly bloke. I think I'm less sociable than he is tho. That'll help people work out the difference.

Indeed, it all hinges on whether I get three sheets tonight, and whether I can be arsed rooting through the garage at 10am.

Plus Mike is thinner than me these days, so I'll be grumpy(ier).

How long do they normally go on for?

Shimano skewers go on for years!

Ba Da Boom!

Usually packing up by 1-ish - a bit later if going V well.

If my arms will reach.

2lb? Pffrt, try 14kg (6.5 lbs ish)

2.2lbs per Kg

That would be 30lbs or nearly 3Kg depending on your numbers. I'm about a stone over, but as a %-age of me, that isn't much!

More of you to love, adh.
