    matt, how did you do that ? i.e. get the picture into digital form. I’ve got an old Super A that I’d like to get going again (and a 50mm 1.2 lens – flash ? pah !)…

    If you’re really strong and can rattle over it at full gas then 24s. If you’re going to cruise then 32s.

    Turn on your irony feature, you should find it near the sense of humour switch and on the opposite side to the outrage button.

    Not only Stafford, sadly. I saw similar at Milton Keynes and Isle of Wight hospitals.

    FNSS race series excellent. Chicksands and Woburn an easy drive. Loads of good quiey-tiny-lane road riding. And if you’re just passing through for a year or two, how about living on MK to experience how good a ‘new town’ can be (and then you can ride to Woburn)…

    edhornby has it spot on. Unfortunately many companies fake their capability maturity (usually by setting a level as a target rather than by honestly discovering where they are). SAP is utterly inflexible and will expose you if you’ve cheated. Of course, your business may actually be making excellent product at a low maturity, and in this case SAP will ruin you.

    you can make a rye sourdough starter relatively easily (google it) then when it comes to making it, use the breadmaker on ‘dough’ and leave it until it’s risen to your satisfaction. then bake it in the oven.

    I always use the ‘dough’ option even when using yeast, and leave it until it looks ready to bake. That can be all day at this time of year. When you’re happy, whack your oven up to full blast and bake for 35 mins, baking in the breadmaker tin (it’ll survive). Turn the oven down to 220 after you’ve put it in.

    I know it isn’t rye, but the spelt from Waitrose is rising like a mad thing at the moment.

    TBH rye works better as a sour IMO. ‘Fresh’ yeast hasn’t enough ‘go’ for it.

    Whatever you do, do not blame yourself or let your wife blame herself. Love each other. Don’t try and understand it. There are some things we can’t control and are beyond rationality, and this is one.
    Sadly, been there…

    23″ Raleigh Montage. Actually not too bad, wouldn’t mind something that big now – MTBs only seem to come in children’s sizes these days.

    thanks, it’s the breaking that I’m worried about (just trashed a magicshine angled mount, I have lots of clumsy crashes).

    Does the camera itself always survive mount breakages ?

    From a training POV one (or more) longer one per week could well be better than beating youself every day.

    Similar situation to yourself, so I listen to podcasts when I drive of programs that I’d otherwise miss, and get in a 50 mile round trip when I cycle. In summer that can be 3 days a week. I do have the benefit of a relatively safe route though, which you may not have…

    Oh, and I didn’t get any money for the compulsory transfer.

    For a special year (40th) do an epic. Tour De Mont Blanc is such an adventure. Truly unforgettable.
