    Supermean- a comedy drama about a man with super powers (a superman if you will), who chooses not to use them and to just watch tragic disasters occur instead.

    Go for a bike ride.

    +1 for keep it civil though. It will make it a hell of a lot easier with kids involved.

    I find this whole American tradition very odd.
    Like tramps begging, but a bit more more Jimmy Saville.
    Any old weirdo with a penchant for children can leave a bowl of sweets out and attract them to their door!

    I just googled it- fecal vommiting is a thing!
    From Wikipedia :

    Fecal vomiting (aka stercoraceous vomiting)[20] is a kind of vomiting, or emesis, in which partially or fully digested matter is expelled from the intestines into the stomach, by a combination of liquid and gas pressure and spasmodic contractions of the gastric muscles, and then subsequently forcefully expelled from the stomach up into the esophagus and out through the mouth and sometimes nasal passages.

    Don’t cough too hard folks! 😯

    Sounds like a case of cat aids.

    I’d guess so.
    I was talking about this a couple of days ago.
    Apparently, a mate of a mate once vomitted actual shit, due to some extreme regurgitation reflex.

    Having to pick up everything they shit out, day in day out, regardless of illness, injury or state of hungoverness.
    This will add up to tons of shit over their lifetime.

    For actual bearing removal….no. The bearings on my Butcher have been serviced in situ by me several times. Dismantle the swingarm/linkage pivots. Remove bearing seals, clean bearings out with Isopropyl alcohol, re-grease & assemble. It’s kept them alive for several years without removal.
    D.

    How do you remove the seals without damaging them?
    Or do you fit new seals?

    I was a bit of a swot, knew what I was doing, and no amount of protestations that I did it to sound more realistic made any difference

    You were right- your teacher was a knob.

    I sympathize with the pedants…

    I had a teacher 30 years ago, and was asked to write a historical account of a day in the life of a cowboy/old Western/Cowboy goings on….

    I put loads of effort into this. I wrote it in the style of an olde worlde mid-western, and mis-spelled it it to sound like an authentic cowboy.
    When it was marked, I was taken through it step by step, by my pedantic tutor, and informed of my grammatical errors- which were actually not as bad as I had feared.
    I didn’t have the confidence at the time to explain that my mis-spellings were intentional.
    He would not believe it was written in an authentic style intentionally, but chose to believe I did not have a full grasp of English.
    This really bothered me for years, and felt like a true injustice.

    Encourage them to keep cattle on the front lawn- the manure will easily mask the smell of any urine.

    I did it a few days ago- well worth the detour I’d say, and it seems more bouldery and full of gnar than I remember.
    I didn’t see another soul there either.
    If you want a short cut to do the final descent again after doing the loop, just go back down the fire road towards the main road, and keep right- follow the lane/fire road all the way to the top.

    Also, there was a ‘car park closed’ sign on the way up to the car park- I assume this was left behind after the forestry work, as it was open and no work was going on.

    ClimachX- all fully open again now, despite what some leftover signs say.
    Is it just me or is the final descent rockier than it used to be? (It is brilliant- better than I remember).

    Too much censorship and easily offended mods ended it for me, and that was before the name change.

    I’ve reduced tablet time to a few hours a week. Their behaviour gets poor and Ill disciplined when they spend too much time on them,

    Definitely noticed this- it’s a serious addiction they can’t handle.
    I have noticed one of these has got him away from screen time without much persuasion however.

    Depends how much you want to get into it, like bikes.
    Spend more if you want something you’ll spend a lot of time on- for better manoeverability/buoyancy and from a recognised make- but if just for a week, almost anything will do.

    I’ve always broken watches from lots of manufacturers in short spaces of time, ranging from very expensive to cheap casios- until I was considering painting the time on my wrist.
    Mainly from working outside with chainsaws and mtb’ing.
    I’ve currently had my £50 g-shock for 18 months, so would well recommend a g-shock, as all other watches I’ve had have lasted nowhere near as long.

    I did mine at the end of April.
    I still can’t run or do anything involving impacts, but after about 10 weeks I was able to do gentle rides.
    Seriously frustrating though.

    I wasn’t impressed with Mad Max, but I did like Paddington.

    I would recommend ‘pixels’ though.

    I’ve stayed in that car park in my van before and had no bother.
    The path is steep, but is mainly steps so easily do-able for a 9 year old.
