(almost) ashamed to say that i'm sliding down the scale of STWness - hose move = no longer have a stove* or attendant log pile....
Worryingly, that's a 50% fall in my compatibility rating as i'm now only a 'yes' on
Border terrier
Coffee machine
😉
*ok, we've got a nice man coming around tomorrow to give us a quote to take out the gas fire / cast surround, open up the fireplace (given the age of the house, and knowing similar properties, we think it would open out to around 5'6" wide by around 5' tall, showing the old stone lintels... just about enough room to fit a burner 😉 ) We're back a mid-terrace from a big, old, semi and we're really not convinced of the need for a stove. That said, when does need come into these decisions...

I cooked lunch today (home made chicken soup) on the woodburner. Double points ?

Nil on any STW clique-ness...unless bog standard coffee filter machine and a desire to live in the cabin that McMoonter posted counts...

STW = SS = beard.

That was so 2001

Moderate (2 years worth) log pile

No dog, iPad, Audi, Orange, Guardian, Niche razor or coffee machine, but I did cut a tree down this morning, split it this afternoon, and am burning it this evening.
(It had been dead for a few years so well dried.)

Border Terrier - Westie

iPad - Yep and a Mac

Audi - No car

Orange 5 - Nope, never. Specialized and Nukeproof

Guardian - Newspapers are for wimps

Niche Razor - No, beard.

Coffee Machine - Yes and one of the those little espresso hob pot things.

Is owning a chainsaw(s) also worthy of being added to the list? If so my score would be boosted greatly.

iPad - No iMac on it's last legs, and my iphone4
Audi - gf has A3

Ipad no way to much cash

wood burner oh yes and just found a endless free supply of wood easy to access 1 mile from home the joys of going for a nosey pootle on your bike

I'll match your log pile and raise you an Orange Five.

My day has consisted of splitting firewood (8 bucket loads on the tractor with maul and chainsaw), watching rugby and a quick blast up Talybont forestry on the bike with the dog (not a terrier). Just fed the sheep and am now sat on my iPad drinking coffee.(alas only from an expresso stove top pot, but it was on the woodburner...). But I don't own a rigid singlespeed.

Neil - manlove (if you ditch the tablet).

Border Terrier - Nope. Had two rough collies in Canada, but sadly no from for dogs in this household

iPad - Yep, along with an Android tablet, a PC laptop, and iMac for general home use

Audi - Nope, but two VWs, including a T4 Caravelle with bike rack on tailgate.

Orange 5 - Never. 4 year old Fisher Big Sur here. Always been a bit of a 'Trek-ie', me.

Guardian - Sometimes. Or sometimes the Telegraph. Depends how I feel.

Niche Razor - Don't need a razor. Have a beard.

Coffee Machine - Who needs a coffee machine when you've got a Bodum?

Come to think of it, it's hard to see why I hang around, really.

Oh yes, it's because if the log burner. I've got a crap wood pile, but a lovely Morso Squirrel to keep warm by.

Oh dear.
Border terrier? - No, Rescue Lurcher cross.
iPad... Mrs Scape has one that use
Audi. No, hardly. Discovery.
Orange Five no, but I do have a self-build 150 AM bike
Oh, and a Soul
Guardian? Huddersfield Examiner.
Niche Razor? Mach3 plus solid soap and brush, so does traditional use of bits of badgers count?
Coffee machine? Yes.

However, the log pile is for the chiminea.

I appear to have bred a STW clone though. At 13 he wanted a Ragley, and this year (he's 15) has swapped it for a Soul. On which he has a Thomson elite, a charge spoon, and Pro 2 on DT Swiss. Oh,and he can tell the difference between packet and fresh ground Lavazza, and has learnt to drive the Bialetti only this afternoon.

What was it that Balloo the bear sang? "The bear necessities of life will come to you..."
Now I'm worried 😉

Surely Neilc 1881 is doubly STW with his orange Orange 5? 😀

How can any STWness test not include owning a niche brand rigid singlespeed (preferably fat and/or with irregular shaped handlebars)?

Border Terrier - Nope, but I have half a rastafari poodle. Any good?

Log pile - yes, piled around the wood burner. Solid fuel Aga too. 🙂

iPad - Yes, though it's a work one. iPhone thought and many, many Macs.

Audi - No. I've upgraded from my last, free, Mondeo estate to a cheap Skoda Fabia off Singletrack Dave.

Orange 5 - Kind of, yes. I've just bought a Gyro. It's surely the 29er Five?

Guardian - No, sorry. I don't read or watch any news. I'm a rubbish media type, eh?

Niche Razor - Yep. Merkur open comb.

So, based on that, I'm not very singletrackworld... I don't even ride my singlespeed any more (though I did organise the 2001 SSWC...) I'd better be off then.

Border Terrier - no, 2 cats
iPad - yes, 2, apple laptop x2, Apple TV, iPhone 5, wife has 4s
Audi - yes A4 avant sline 2.0 tdi Quattro

My brother's temporary store until he builds a shed.
