Maybe I should uncheck the auto relist option to avoid this happening again?  Assuming you can still do that, that is?

Thanks for the heads up regarding the auto relist situation.   Hadn’t really given it much thought TBH and hadn’t read the Ts & Cs..

I think the offer is on this weekend so I need to kill any old listings and go again?

I did think that charge seemed a bit excessive but it makes a lot more sense now. Lesson learnt and all that….

I predict a no-show.  Those extra couple of days give him time to find another bike or decide that he doesn’t want yours quite enough to bother turning up.  Having similar issues on gumtree, myself. ..

Yeah, belting price, that.   Anyone who bought a set, but found they didn’t fit, can talk to me….

Link is broken so I assume that they’ve all gone.  How much were they, out of interest? 

Been after some cheap gravel tyres for ages.  I suppose ebay will be awash with them soon, with a riidiculous mark-up?

Focusing on his links to Thatcher/the Tories and the Royal family is an interesting way for the BBC to deflect attention away from their own enablement of their employees behaviour.

Seems rather pathetic that nobody was able to lay a glove on him while he was still alive.

Like others have said, I had no idea he was a wrong un, when I was a kid.   Just thought he was a bit of an eccentric relic.

Wonder how much the husband of said lady knows?  Wonder if he’ll turn up, kicking up a stink?

Getting him to lob the grenade would avoid you getting involved ,directly, and maintain your neutrality…

The Evri courier who visits ours is a diamond but his round is probably a lot easier than your guys…

The guy, recently evicted from Plankey Mill Farm, appears to be in the frame for this.  Clearly, someone with a rather large axe (or saw) to grind…

So that’s what air defence doing?

Re the stained rear seat.   Is it a fake taxi?

Yep, totally agree.  Full-on action, from flag to flag, without having to worry about tyres running out of grip.  A wet sprint race might be a scary affair, though.

Nice to see those youngsters are more than capable of clean close-racing and don’t feel the need to use other riders as berms,

Meanwhile HRC are trying to evade the incredibly soft double long-lap penalty handed out to the Marquez by race direction.  Pull a sickie, in Argentina,  then try to assert that the penalty can only be applied there, due to the wording when it was handed out.  I thought the Japanese were, above all, an honourable people?

The talent is unquestionable but it’s the sociopathic tendencies, that are the problem.  (for the other riders, anyway)

He is desperate to cement himself as the GOAT and he knows time is running out.  His and Lorenzo’s sterling efforts in 2015 helped to make eclipsing Rossi’s title haul a little easier, though.

He’s been offered megabucks from other manufacturers but always stuck with the winning formula.  Now it appears that Ducati is the bike to be on so maybe there’s an element of regret there, too?

I know he’s not there to make friends but there is a whole grid full of riders who might return the favour, one day.  Lots of Italian machinery and riders,  some of whom work for (and are related to) his nemesis.

Marquez ruined that race with yet another bonehead move.  Ending Miquel’s race instantly, (luckily not his career) and shuffling Martin down the pack.  Two of the riders that could have gave Pecco a run for his money.

He should have got a race ban for that move , IMO, like Nakagami did last season.

If the bike isn’t capable of winning, why put the rest of the grid at risk by constantly leaving his brain in the motorhome?

Sad to see the once imperious M1 Yamaha running around mid-oack.  Seems the inline-4 party is well and truly over, doesn’t it?

As above, not a great deal you can do about it.  At one time, both buyer and seller had to agree to a cancellation,  now the seller can bin you off whenever they feel like it.

Happened to me, a few weeks ago.   The guy left me hanging for over a fortnight,  then cancelled.  No reason given…

Surely, suggesting you.can pick up a bug, eating an iffy Scotch egg, must be a racist trope aimed at the good people of Scotland.?

Asking for a friend…

Thought it was just me.  Wanted to buy someone’s brakes but was unable to message them.  Still interested in them, actually…

Captain Wales, is that you?

If you remove the other 3 rotor bolts, is there enough of the broken bolts present to get some mole grips on them?  I suppose they’re going to be in there pretty tight for the heads to have been sheared off.

Can’t believe someone would sell a bike in such a dangerous condition.

Bent axle, possibly?

I’d be looking for another job,  ASAP,  if I was one of his security team.  I’m sure friends of :”the chess pieces he removed from the board” are pretty skilled with IEDs etc.

Lol at firestarter.

Sorry z1ppy.  Yes, lots of sizes available but all appear to regular ie 32″ leg length.

Sorry for any confusion caused.

This one felt slightly laboured to me, if i’m honest.

The last two Christmas specials with Chris Rea and Gazza/Paul Heaton and co. were brilliant.  No offence but Ulrika-ka-ka-ka?

Beautiful visuals as ever, of course.

Me and my 11 year old mates thought Eddie Murphy – Delirious was the funniest thing ever.  That hasn’t aged well.  The ice cream and G.I. Joe gags are still filed away in my mind, somehow.

Still enjoy him in 48 Hrs, Trading Places and Beverly Hills Cop, though.

The first couple of series of Allo Allo aren’t completely terrible.  I think the appearance of the gendarme is where it started to go downhill fast.

Lesshaste,  like this?  44 Id cups, 1.5 bottom – 1 1/8″ top.

Is that a typo by the Sonder guy?  The pick and mix ones appear to be zero stack ZS44 upper and EC44/40 like this?  Nukeproof seem to be the same sizes too…

It’s a NOS frameset so I don’t have a headset fitted as a reference.  Got it for a reasonable price and wanted to use my 700c QR wheels on something .

Paper dragon as opposed to a paper tiger?

Caught a heroin-enthusiast nicking the under-seat bag off my bike, outside of Morrisons.  I was only in there 5 minutes at 9.30am.   He claimed that he thought the bike had been abandoned before wandering off swearing and making threats.

There was only a mini- pump and a tube in it.  Have to remember to put this kit in whichever backpack I’m using now but often forget so there’s always a chance I’ll end up pushing it home

(Yes, tubes.  How quaint?)

50 second clip of the damage to the rail section of the bridge, also shows the road section viewed from above.  Some trucks appear to have welded themselves to the rails.

Plenty of comments from people, far more knowledgeable than me, suggesting it’s cattled due to the temperatures involved.?

^^^or some real 4d chess from Xi?  Encouraging his mate to do something incredibly stupid, then sweeping in to pick up the pieces.

^^^  there is a video purportedly showing this arrest.

Seems to be some of power struggle going on with Prigozhin and Shoigu,  according to reports.

@Piemonster. No goats involved in that particular clip, I believe.  Just two consenting adults going about their business when some twisted individual, piloting a drone, drops a grenade on them.

This can’t be real?

What if some random carelessly discarded a cigarette close to the Russian pipelines which supply their Eastearn neighbours?

I see those scumbags are currently targeting Odesa with Iranian loitering munitions.   Lots of videos doing the rounds.  Rob Lee’s Twitter etc.

Plenty of interesting stuff on there regarding the mobilisation of troops, too…

Gold standard attained yet?

And letting Vlad and co get their own way won’t embolden China and other potential rogue states?

I’m surprised they didn’t try to take him to Disneyland,  Weekend At Bernie’s style.

A quick Google on the mother threw up nothing obvious

Searching for the name/s she used, prior to changing it, might help.  If correct, she’s already made the tabloids/local press but this was almost 2 decades ago.

Odd, that the press are holding back on this.  Maybe they’re going to let them get the funeral out the way first?

Hollie said: “All I have ever asked is to get him to six months – where is the harm in that for them?

“They have spent a fortune on legal fees fighting me in court – money they could have spent on Archie’s care and others’.

Why on earth was she trying to drag this thing out for 6 months?

RIP…

Bet Peter Andre had a chuckle about this, yesterday.

Rumour has it,  that the Vardy’s might start having to liquidate their assets to pay this bill.  First to go, could be their Portuguese villa.  That’s going to smart, isn’t it?

Unless they go double or quits and appeal.  Fergie time?
