Henson always looks like he has time on the ball – sign of a quality player. So much rugby potential unfulfilled there.

Crucial Brew

Is it a rhino who’s had a hot curry?

I read The Suicide Club by Robert L. Stevenson when I was 10 or 11 and I remember being totally absorbed by it. I think that was the first book that really grabbed my imagination. Alas, I then turned to the darkside and my soul was lost forever (and I don’t mean road bikes or Cotic).

Tinned pilchards on toast. Yum.

Plenty of Wales fans complained about Warburton’s red card at the last World Cup. It’s just England’s turn now. Hopefully, it won’t go on too much longer. 😆

My family is housed, fed and loved. I don’t have much to complain about. My job gives me some satisfaction. Riding bikes keeps me sane. I feel lucky. Does that count?

“Protection from what? Ze Germans?”

😆

Actually, no. That isn’t all.

It was when 70,000 cavorting Welshman started chanting, “Easy! Easy!” that you finally flushed all pre-match predictions down the gurgler and reached instead for the record books.
Wales’ 30-3 destruction of England did not just pillage the Six Nations crown from them. It chased the men in white back across the Severn with Grand Slam hopes up in smoke and tails burning between their legs.

Much as it pains me to say it, well played Wales. Dominant in every area, although until 60 mins it was more even than you’d think.

No. It wasn’t.

Muhahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

That is all.

The Evening Post website is not exactly user friendly at the best of times!

La femme d’argent by Air.

I don’t care what colour the person is who benefits, or where they live. However bad it is here its a 100 times worse in the developing world.

Giving is good, whoever or wherever you’re helping.

Meh, I’m bored. Anyone up for a bit of stabbing?

Just checked ours – it’s on the list 😯

Really hoping for a cracker of a game. Plenty of tries please and the lead changing hands several times would be good.

Watch out Grandma, here comes a lawn mower. It’s going to rip your face off.

Mostly buying and eating homemade cake, either from work or my daughters nursery. Big sugar comedown right now…might have to indulge again.

I have a 30/39/54 triple on my road bike. Call it planning ahead for when my cardio-vascular/musculo-skeletal system(s) can no longer cope in the middle ring.

I don’t know what you mean?

Ave Satanas

Retails for about £20. Have had a set for years.

Yes, it’s the ball-end that is convenient for those hard to reach hex nuts like Thomson seat clamp bolts.

I prefer a P-handled hex key to a T-handled hex key.

That is all.

I bought the 26″ wider rims and laced them to DT 240S hubs. They weigh ~1500g and track beautifully, whilst really softening the ride. I realise that doesn’t make a lot of sense!

Good reactions from Hibbard there, cushioning the ball with his face.

Probably a bit early to start gloating… 😆

Not actually used them yet, on route to me, do thy have a bad rep then?

There are a few threads about this. The original versions had a few freehub failures. My Iodine freehub failed and was replaced with the updated version under warranty.

I don’t think the Cobalts can be converted to 20 mm. As for sourcing a new hub, try asking 2Pure – they are the UK distributor for CB.

I do expect that the welsh are expecting a win (cricket score) as they cannot tolerate the thought of england getting a slam.

You are a mind reader? Let’s just hope it’s a good game, eh? This years championship hasn’t exactly been a classic thus far.

Breadboy played well today, made a proper nuisance of himself. Scotland’s ill discipline cost them any chance of winning.

I had to do this for my Dad. I spoke to a few people and basically came up with a potted history of his life. I threw in a couple of amusing tales too. I thought I wouldn’t be able to go through with it but on the day I felt remarkably calm. Having the eulogy to concentrate on kind of helped me hold it together somehow. Speak to family and friends to get some help. And, good luck.

10 or so years ago, my old dear picked up a brooch for $1.50 which turned out to be diamonds set in white gold…£2k worth!!

Been off the sauce for 4 weeks. That stops tonight! Rugby and beer… 😀

I’ve had a Seiko for 19 years. It recently went through the washing machine and still works. Got a new glass fitted too so it looks good as new. Solid stuff!

I like my workshop…yet I now have workshop envy. Nice set-up. Makes fettling a breeze when everything is to hand.

What a turtle disaster…
