    Cheers Clubber, did you use the hope proII internal spacer?

    Would you not have to factor in the cost of new spokes and a wheel building jig?

    Matlock and the heights of Abraham, is the cable car still running?

    On a slight tangent, I work by a rugby pitch used by local school and the FP club. After every match the ground is littered with tape and bottles discarded after the match, is this because they see the professionals doing the same?

    ^different to the elderflowers TJ.
    Daffodils do not suffer and die from having their flowers picked. It is common practice to dead-head narcissus to promote more flower growth in the following season.

    Stands corrected, there is a native narcissus. Were the flowers picked of this species?
    My other point still stands.

    ^ why thank you kind sir.
    But is it enough to add some colour to TJ’s black and white world

    Narcissi are not native to the British Isles. Your common daffodil is a hybrid of plants native to southern Europe and north Africa. By taking the flowering heads you still leave the bulb, which instead of putting energy into producing seeds will produce more flowers next year.

    The map does show a path continuing along the river at that point as you say “through their garden” I wonder which came first the path or their garden? but there is the steps up to the A72. Personally I’ve never had a problem there but it’s good to hear about potential conflicts.

    It’s marked on the 1:25,000 as a path

    The bit behind the rugby club looks like a footpath I’ve met several people walking along it, and there are steps leading from the field at the eastern end up to the road.

    Yes it is, the bit along the Tweed at the Peebles end is nice.You can carry on into Cardrona, or cut right and through the golf course to the entrance to the Forest

    Do TJ’s figures include all those that earn vast amounts but pay themselves through legal tax avoidance schemes?
    How much would these skew the figures?

    I’ve been using a marmot precip for the last three years. Not totally breathable but has pit zips, crashed in it a bit but fixed with duct tape. Can be had for fifty notes.

    The mate you speak of, is unlikely to accept all these parts gratis and will insist on paying. It would be a good idea of what you would like money for and how much.
    If you play your cards right you’ll be able to use this clear out of parts from your one bedroom yuppie mansion to gain brownie points from SWMBO and get some sticky rubber queens.

    I take it, you’re giving him the forks as well?

    But he wouldn’t need these parts if you hadn’t badgered him to getting another frame. So of course you are responsible for giving him everything he needs. When do you need the front shifter?

    TJ did say he suffered from CFS too though for most of his adult life.

    TJ has also said on the internet that he can see stress auras, doesn’t mean it is true.

    I did this last year. I figured I’ve got a good printer lets give it a go. There are a few guide on the net for numpties like me to get my head round resizing the photo. The only problem was my first attempt had a shadow behind my head. Photoshopped that out and job done.
