Well, kitchen being ordered and paid for in an hour. We’ve taken the appliances off the order – gives us more time to mull it over. I’m not fitting the kitchen til we’ve had the boiler and washer moved so plenty of googling hours between now and then.

Thanks for all the replys. 😀

Wife signed up to which yesterday so will investigate further tonight…..

Johndoh – looks lovely but were having built-in.

Had Bosch stuff in the past (fridge and dishwasher)….. Lasted well with minimal maintenance… I presume theyre still as good as they were?

We were looking at an AEG fridge at about that price…the wife googled it and didnt get good reviews (poor customer service, apparently), which is the main reason for this thread.

No… This is Groundhog Day…..

Mine did exactly the same too. Replaced by SS with an ULTRA.

Thanks for all the replies, allthough most seem to involve Helvellyn, which I’m trying to avoid 😕

Can I recommend the particularly harsh hike a bike straight up towards Helvellyn

Done Helvellyn (not from that side, though)…. not sure I want to do it again! 😳

is it possible to link the blue (at whinlatter) with the north loop?

Click here….[/url] and hold the frame up against your screen to compare.

HTH 😀

Sadly 🙁 this:

Distance: 428mi (but these were mainly Calderdale miles and therefore worth 4 times as much 😉 )
Time: 55h
Rides: 43 (not even 1 a week – shocking!)
Elev Gain: 47,566ft

Purple, lots of purple….. purple socks, purple ear warmer, purple ron hill waterproof. Oh, and before I got any padded cycling shorts I wore ‘Global Hypercolor’ shorts….remember them….changed colour with the heat from your body. What was I thinking?
Massive Duracell lights that took 2 D batteries each – 2 on the bars and one on the seatstay (still got them in the shed somewhere).
Smoke and Dart.
Getting my first suspension forks – RS Quadra 10.

My YT now built and nearly ready to go:

Been waiting 2 months to add to this thread – Capra AL1 arrived this morning after an extra 3 week wait. At work, so no pics yet. 😀

Sounds a bit much! Have you thought of doing it yourself? Not as hard as it looks to shorten/lengthen a bit of pipework.
If youve already got the boards up it shouldnt take more than a couple of hours…

‘Dougal’ – A game I remember fondly from my time in the cubs/scouts. It involved a sadistic scout leader stood in the middle of the church hall swinging a heavy feather cushion tied to a particularly rough hemp rope, round in a circle.
20-odd cubs/scouts stood in a circle trying to jump over said rope as the cushion came flying round – Last man standing wins (and avoids severe rope burn on his legs). Character building 😯

Anybody still making these at the mo? Just bought a Solarstorm X2 and would like a gopro mount adapter.

Saddle… That cant last long like that! 😯

Black and lots of different reds… (red rotor bolts aren’t visible 😉 )

I got an Addict last winter. great coat, very waterproof. and big detachable hood for over-helmet duties. I got mine for £80 at the time from here.

Looks theyre £90 at the mo. The orangey red colour is great – very hi vis.

No…. Thanks for rubbing salt into the wound 🙁

People who put milk in coffee should be the outcasts IMHO 🙂

Signed.

Whilst I love the welsh/North Yorkshire trail centres… something nearer would be a welcome change. Would Middleton park be hilly/big enough?

I nailed it on my Hardtail 4 weeks ago – when I say ‘nailed’ I mean I got a bit over confident on one of the reds and went sideways onto a slab of rock. I’m typing this from my laptop at home where I’ve been for the last 4 weeks nursing a broken collar bone. 4 weeks I’ve been here! Did I mention I’ve been here for 4 Weeks? 😯

Be careful out there, kids 😕

There’s only one – Bialetti Moka Express 😉

Millions of Italians cant be wrong. I’m still using one that was passed on to me by my father that was originally my nonnas – must be 40-50 years old.

Mine are a bit big now….what temperature to shrink them a bit? 🙂

Thanks for that… got to be better than Vine on Radio 2 😀

Done – that was easy enough!

Some thing like this perhaps:

Sorry,couldnt resist 🙂

First time on a proper MTB was 1987 – Brother bought a Giant super Sierra off a mate and didnt really use it so I used to mess around in the local woods on it (Copley & North Dean – Halifax area).
Before that – used to use old road bikes converted into “scramblers” with wide bars and slightly knobbly tyres.

Is it the brake? 😆

Think I might just take it back anyway and let them have a look….

Not coming off.

Plus one.

and I’ll add “Not breaking a bone”
Currently nursing a broken collar bone which isnt healing very well – new bike arrives in mid November and sure I’ll be able to ride it! 🙁

Just tried that – you can hear it rattle a bit more when easing off:

Vid Part 2

Think you’re probably right…just watched a demonstration vid on screwfix-youtube site seems to sound the same as mine – Panic over.

Just doesnt sound right – a bit graty/rattly…
Video dulls the sound a bit.

Just watched this and left in awe.
The speed, the smooth lines, the (seemingly*) effortless ability.

Somebody’s gots the hots for Miss Atherton – Gone off La Barnes have we?
Some people are so fickle. 😉

I’ll have a look at Drakes, then. Thanks for the replies.

I’d beg to differ that All Terrain is a great shop after the service I received there.

Always been very helpful when I’ve been…….

😉
