    Hmmmm, is it me or does there seem to be a good match between the plebs in the police, policing the plebs in the street?

    Your not wrong there. I had one at my house due to some criminal damage and he was really stupid as if the whole recruitment process had past him by.

    +1 superstar in red, although it’s more of a pink compared to my red hope hubs. A very subtle clash that slightly annoys me.

    We bought a Maxi-cosi mura 3 which is suitable as an offroad pushcair up to 4 yrs or something.

    Combined it with a pram body/carry cot for early months when visiting family on foot – meaning we can detach pram body and it can be used as a cot at friends and families homes. The cot folds flat for storage if you want to put that and frame in car.

    Also got the maxi-cosi cabriofix car seat that attaches to the main pushchair body that will be used for walks/shopping when we have driven there. The car seat bases are available quite cheap on ebay we paid £35 for one.

    After about 6 months I reckon we will only have use for the pushchair itself.

    This is all in a perfect world though as ours isnt due until xmas time.

    The idea of this one was that we have a springer spaniel who will need walked twice a day still so it needed to be offroadable and sturdy – it will be used from our door and not really used as our car solution (got a zapp from ebay for that but they are >6months or birth with the cabriofix seat)

    I have mission control DH dampers in a coil uturn- seems good to me. I wouldn’t have used flood gate anyway.

    Whilst were on Lyrik topic – I have a set of coil lyriks but my travel sits at about 155 not 160 – the 160 line isnt visible unless i pull the lowers down (so pulling uppers and lowers apart)

    Anyone else have this?

    What kind of riding do you do? My five is setup for light DH/FR and aggressive natural trails and it suits me perfect. Its quite an adaptable bike and not limited to one specific area.

    Anyone know what the song is towards the end – when he does the wall ride against the house with the sunset?

    Shazam isn’t picking it up.

    Yes thats the point of sausages but supermarket sausage rolls only have about 10% meat content – if they are good ones.

    My family run a butchers and our sausage rolls contain the same sausage as you buy over the counter in links. They are lovely.

    Cant imagine there is even much meat in them to be fair.

    You could probably toast them there will be that much bread in the buggers.

    Politically correct light switches.

    Ace bike though – I fancy swapping my five for an alpine.

    In the same way you get paid for being at work when you not – the statement says – you get any regullar allowances during this time.

    We swap around for holidays – im also not going back to work full time for 6 weeks after PL ends due to not used up holiday. So its going to get tricky arranging a weeks on call since im not at work properly for 8 weeks.

    Just wondering if anyone else had similar experiences?

    carbon337

    The question is do i need to do this week at all though?

    In other words imo I dont need to do it either as payback or a swap.
