Is disappoint :(

Good Job!

DUP MP Gavin Robinson got his arse handed to him this week

Yeah but they need us more than we need them..or something :D

In my opinion the UK Government are using the Protocol as leverage for the passporting of the City Of London Financial Services. The Conservatives don’t give a toss about NI really.

The Protocol is good for NI Business. This FUD from the Conservatives and DUP is taking all the oxygen in the room. The majority of NI voted against Brexit and they still want to be in the EU

I Am Not A Carbon Fibre Repair Person (IANACFRP) but I think I’d crack on with that. I think it visually looks much worse than it structurally is.

Yeah – apparently!
I genuinely only joined for the Forum and thought the “magazine” was the frontpage :D

Slightly OT but does anyone know if the newer Bizangos, i.e the Red ones have a straight or tapered fork?
Thanks

I didn’t realize Polo Shirts are uncool!

Around €400 for brand new – I’m not in the UK.

Can someone recommend a wallet? I am shying away from a HW wallet, for now, as I’ve only gambled a little bit of money and buying a HW wallet will be a fairly significant cost compared to my initial outlay. Yes, I am a tight git :)

Returned some boots recently and refunded with 10 days

@zilog6128 wins today!

My two kids are – Swedish and English. Wife is trilingual: Swedish, Polish and English. Also, her French is good but she’s not fluent.

You might need to think about putting an alarm in or taking valuables out at night

If the price was right – yep.

I have 2 Sonos 5’s and 3 Sonos 1’s and the connection to them from the phone app is crap.

Ive tried connecting them using powerlines and cat5 to try and improve things but to no avail.

I’ve also had the ethernet port on one of the 5’s die when it just went out of warranty.

I don’t think I’ll ever buy another Sonos product again due to the poor experiences I’ve had with them.

I think this is the hack Loum mentioned:

I forgot about it tbh as I’ve had Ultimate for a while

The Game Pass Ultimate is good value – it includes Xboxlive and a huge back catalogue

Looks like that sending them back was a wise decision :)

I ordered these exact boots a couple of weeks ago and sent them back to CRC. I said in a thread here just afterwards that the lacing appeared to be a poor design. All the leverage and upwards pressure from your foot is held on that one lace.

@raggatip – did yours fail also?

Yeah, its NW. Their system is called SLW2..

However, this seems to be a variant of Slw2 – they seem to want to be anchored to through a grommet at the front.

It seems like one end has lost a fixing which keeps it in place.

I’ve tried to thread it through again but it’s just too difficult.

I wonder what actually keeps it in place to begin with and if it comes included with a replacement lace 🤔

Yeah, its NW. Their system is called SLW2..

In hindsight, I think velcro straps are much more suitable as a binding. More robust, less complex, etc

Lovely commuter – Nice, clean likes 👌

Solaris – the original and the remake are worth a watch

as above, I wouldnt count on going anywhere in Europe after January.
We’ll have taken back control so are completely at the whim of the EU.

:snigger!

no pain in the heel, just forward of it toward the high point of the arch

I’ve been experiencing this as well – I’m going to try out those calf stretches in the video

Career change or career break?

Good Lord – there’s some ugly bikes on this thread! Although there are also some nice skinwall tires 😛

Good luck! Enjoy the adventure 🙂

If I do go down the physical book route – are there any good sites/shops to purchase from?

Wow! Every day is a School day. Good job on getting the scan.

As previously mentioned , Computer Gaming is doing very well – we’ve just had our 2 best quarters ever.

Can anyone tell me what the spacing is like on planes at the moment, I’ve been on trains, buses and tube in London and its been maybe 90% mask wearing and easy enough to socially distance, so not too high a risk imo.

I’ve had to wear a mask the entire time I am on the plane. No food or drink is served and there’s no garbage collection by staff. Minimal social contact.

In Sweden, I don’t need to wear a mask at all. In Spain, I must use a mask at all times and there is handgel everywhere. Two countries with very different strategies yet it’s still safe to travel between them. Anybodies guess which strategy is right.

I’ve travelled from Sweden to Spain twice this Summer and will do it again in October. The Authorities at both sides have said this is OK.

72k today. Torrevieja to Callosa de Segura and back again

They often think its the silver bullet to improve the performance and volume of output from a team, unsurprisingly this rarely happens.

Good point. For the Development Team, Scrum should focus on removing impediments and waste not on improving the “speed” or velocity. Focusing on velocity reduces quality and increases stress.
