    I’ve had 2 winter tyres on the Dispatch for the last 4 or 5 years. Swap them over every November.
    The arse end hasn’t caught me up, yet.

    There, I’ve said it now, I’ll drive like a dick and physics’ll do me.

    As above, TK Maxx. Got 2 pairs last year from there, one Firetrap, one Bench, £30 a pair.

    They are awesome, but I think I’d rather have a placid one cat!

    Fixed.

    I was kicking Bizango tyres in Halfords yesterday. Apparently, there’s 10% off all bikes this coming weekend.

    Watered down Fairy liquid in the rail sockets works for me.

    Clean it up with a nail brush and leave it to dry out.

    Yep, I saw it on the back end of Hora’s PSA.

    There were 4 of us rode over Cutgate from Flouch, avoiding the queues.
    Great ride, great planes.

    I’ve put a discount voucher assisted Ocado (Waitrose?) order in today, I’ve gone with a couple of recommendations off this thread, Penderyn and that Swedish stuff that bikebuoy was supping. I’m hoping it’s nice. It’ll be getting on for Christmas before I get round to trying it, though. . . . . . maybe.

    Fasten your key on a looped bootlace around your neck. I’ve used lanyards with clips, but they snag holes in your base layer.

    No handed round the block next time, big ‘un. 8)

    Cheesy, no it wasn’t at the time, but it was a pump fault so Medtronic replaced it. I got the new one insured on the house contents the other week.
    Medtronic were great. I called the UK number, at about 6pm on the Friday, the call went straight through to the US of A. The UK office called at about 11 on Saturday morning, just as we’d pulled up at Glentress. They offered to get the pump delivered to me within 6 hours, but I asked them to send it home on the Sunday evening. They did.
    Votchy’s idea of saving the settings is cock on. Wish I had. :?

    In June this year, I was on the club summer trip to Innerleithen, when my pump failed. That’s a bit of a shocker, I can tell you. 8O
    I was a good lad, though, I’d taken my backup with me. :|

    The 1/4″, 3/8″ and 1/2″ refers to the the size of the square drive on the ratchet etc. Most of your bike and car nuts & bolts will be metric.
    That set Jamie’s linked to wil do you, fine and dandy. If you get the Argos one, you’ll probably use it for years with no problems. But you’ll know it’s bobbins, every time you use it.
    Edit.
    Halfords Pro are good, too. One of their sets’ll probably last you forever.

    Loosen the stiff link off first, to get rid of that possible problem. (Use the back chain rest on your chain tool to push the rivet one way or the other)

    We’ve had a Montana 6 for a few years, but the wife insisted we were having the awning from the start. It’s where we do the cooking, and keep the fridge, and a table. :roll:
    Sorry, this doesn’t answer your question.
