Greggs?

According to call-me-Dave on Andrew Marr this morning its owned by “the government” i.e. him and his fat-cat trustafarian mates, so really he couldn’t give a monkeys, but he’ll pretend he does

Lazlo Chill out! I’ll buy you a pint too- just get the tight wads on-line version like me and its never late, well maybe it is I’m not that anal about it

3hrs on the cross bike

@Northwind Fair enough. but ebay pays for that, not the seller

Seller dosn’t pay for cost of return postage Northwind- probably to stop people “buying” just to have a look to see if they actually want to keep the item.

Take the £20
I recently sold a used frame/fork on ebay – the guy complained and eventually raised a dispute, sent the frame back and got his refund….
I appealed the desicion and won- keeping the f/f and the cash.

Not saying that you’re anythng like the lying cheating scumbag that I had to deal with, but you might end up losing out.

Moral of the story is- be careful buying 2nd hand gear unseen

Didnt feel anything heard a strange “whooshing” type noise. up here in the glorious N.E.

Apparently Jebb ran back to the pits with a mechanical against the flow of the race, instead of completing another lap, daft really as he’s faster running than most are at riding!

Gutted for you pal

A horrible little hairy thing went for Jim the Greyhound last week- and he ran straight out of the park on to road, only good luck he didn’t get mown down. I lost it with the owner, and she threatened to get the police ‘cos I swore at her- stupid Daily Mail reding ****t

Sorry again for your loss, had a collie as a kid from being 5 till I was 21-proper member of the family

Early pair of M-Frames white with blue iridium lens in a Giro Tour Bag left at a bike show years ago.

Nice pair of Bolle sunglasses, left on a cafe table on York train station

Rolex Submariner watch left in Newcastle Train Station bogs… been travelling from Minorca all night needed to be in that London village next day…stopped to wash me face, took watch off and forgot it 😳

Top bloke in the netties handed it in and woundn’t take a few quid for a drink

😆

Bit poor this year, the Secret Sisters (?) are good, and Kylie’s classic clunge other than that….

Cheese n onion pasties to start the evening, making chilli later.
Happy new year 😀

SAAB 99 turbo

Both riding for Giant

They do 3 bottles of Stowells wine for a tenner, dunno about the cocks tho, I’ll ask next time Im in

Pretty cold up here in the N.E. Guessing it will be pretty icy- sometimes the access roads freeze over too

PS3
And a new dressing gown, very cozy grey fleece number
And some steel cored tyre levers off my mate from down the street

Dunno about miles but I’ve been out every other day for 2 to 3 hours in the snow

Duffed it 😳
Hung over and didn’t get up till 10.30, then had to take the dog out etc etc

😥
2nd to what chalkstorm said.

Me and Jim the greyhound are thinking of you and Digit

I shall be participating (can hardly call it racing!) on Boxing Day- CXNE round 9, Temple Park South Shields

Sorry to lower the tone….1664

Hard as nails? yes
Fitter than all of STW combined? yes
Awesomer than the Lord of Awesome himself (surf-mat)? yes
Macho men? no

Hardly a macho world anymore tho is it? Lorenzo, valle, stoner not really macho men, and why should they be?

Am with you there Scratch, Wichita Linesman: “and I need you more than want you” gets me every time!
Love a bit of country, never thought I’d hear my self say that but its true.
Big fan of Lonnie Donnigan too, but he’s maybe more skiffle

Zulu Eleven the change from Felt to Cervelo has more to do with Vaughters team’s contract with Felt coming to an end and Cervelo Test Team going tits up – hence the merger of both teams, than Vaughters wanting the fastest frames

Pit Bitching for my mate at the North of England champs if its on, and we manage to get there (unlikely)

I’ve just watched that prog’ quite shocking the sums of money involved and the way FIFA brush it off, obviously all in it togeather

Snowy and still snowing up here, I think the A1 might have been closed earlier. And the forecast is for more snow

You make tea in a pot not a mug! 🙄

I want to know what Prince Andrew has said/done

Round 5 of the TLI NECCL, at Meadowfield (Durham). Manflu here too so I’ll just pootle round at the back, and give the new bike a run out

As part of a syndacate of 12, wegot 5 numbers up, got £120ish each. Spent it on an afternoon/evening on the drink along with the other winners 😀

Michelin Mud2

Because,after 5 yeats of having him, my dog Jim has deciced that this week would be a good time to start crying during the night! Never had a peep out of him after the second night he came to live here, but he’s been in a proper panic this week, crying shaking and panting.
Cant understand it at all, take him out before bed time for a “comfort break” then he normally gets a good 8 or 9 ho0urs in
He seems to have sttled down now so, goodnight (hopefully)

If I get the new bike built up tonight and test ridden tomorra I might grace CXNE round 5? at Stainton, its near Barney Castle apparently
Dont hold your breath tho!

“protect them from predators” ? like call me Dave and his millionaire trustfund buddies? Thats the only predators they need protecting from. Lets look forwarsd to more animals having “fun” in the circus thanks to that vile crock of shite we have as a government aww look at the cute baby elephants
