Maybe i’m being thick here, but surely if there are less people around who can afford the rent then rent will either have to come down or landlords will have to get rid of their houses. Simple supply and demand is it not?

Maybe we need a housing crash before we get out of recession? Because the current plan doesnt appear to be working.

Can you walk? I’ll bloody well walk out of here.

Here’s a good target for a days riding at GT – see if you can find 10 unwaymarked paths. Doable but you’ll need to do a fair bit of exploring.

Mountain Hardwear down jackets are the best i’ve found.

Beaten by Ton.

Dont get a superstar tensioner they are crap.

Carlos Sastre was clean.

If nobody else wants the titles I’ll have them and the prize money.

Anyway – channel and time?

Easily. Bit of a hike a bike depending on your route choice though.

It’s a shame they had to knock down the ruins of his wee hoose at the top of Glencoe to make way for Hogwarts.

I had the pleasure of using Hagrid’s hut as firewood when I lived in Glencoe. It was made of plywood.

Just wondered.

Druidh – did you ever get that On-One issue sorted out?

To be fair Newcastleton is kind of the worst of all worlds. Not really easy to get to from anywhere. GT or Inners NEEDS a 24hr race on it though.

Jet26 – the paper is to have the title of “Influence of depression on rehabilitation in osteoarthritis of the knee”

So I’m planning on looking to identify where healthcare input has the most benefit, whether that be early surgical or psychological intervention, a move towards group interventions, preventative education programmes it’s too early to say.

The only thing that I’ve found so far, is that in those with depression and mild/moderate radiographic changes their VAS pain levels are the same as those with no psychological issues but with severe radiographic changes.

I’ll be looking at outcomes as well to see if I can form some sort of evidence base on which to build a further study.

Spidermans.

Jedi.

There’s no energy in water either, but you wouldnt let that stop you using it on a race day.

Tonight I will be getting my head panned in by a 14/15yr old girl. I will be trying my hardest to kick her and punch her, but in the fights we’ve had so far I havent been able to get near her. Clinical is the word. If she was to come at me in a proper fight, i’d have to shoot her.

Binners >>> For what its worth, I think he’s the shrewdest political operator we’ve seen for a long long time. Possibly the best ever. He’s running rings around everyone in Westminster

We agree on that.

I once started a thread on where people though the cultural border would be in the UK and part of that thread spun off into if people north of that cultural border were allowed to be part of a new separate nation with scotland – lets call it un-united kingdom north.

The border would have been somewhere south of birmingham and the vast majority would have preferred to be part of the new separate nation than be remain as england and wales.

Best quote was “Sometimes you have to go really high in order to realise how small we really are”

That is one of the best things i’ve seen in my life.

CFH – Red Bull are a marketing company.

Jamie – they will be getting told to watch it later on.

davidjones – I am watching it without any problems on my mac, just wondering if it’s worth the hassle of telling the kids that their movie is going off….

Anyone know if this can be watched on the apple tv version of youtube?

It’s pretty gripping stuff.

Yip. Balloon is all off the ground, so no scrapes this time.

BBQ’d bananas with chocolate buttons inside = No bad at all.

I’d just push the bananas through a seive.

Is it 2014 when the world 24s are at fort william?

I should point out that my knees are in great condition and i’m doing my dissertation on the impact of depression on the rehabilitation of people with oa knees.

One line of thought that i’m going down concerns outcomes of TKR in people who have depression. Something along the lines of – depression > reduced mobility > early soft tissue maladaptation > poor outcome from TKR. With the suggestion being for increased emphasis on psychological/psychosocial factors as soon as OA is diagnosed.

Yes, that helps – thanks.

Any information out there on what co-morbidities tend to lead to unsuccessful outcomes of TKR?

It’s always good to rule fractures out.

cfinnimore – did that injury involve the word “degloved”?

Thee thing that springs to mind here which appears to have been proven to be correct is – that if something appears to good to be true…

Same reason that you shouldnt have one antivirus prog running – they are all crap. Get a mac. 😉

Liefmans Cuvee Brut – cherry beer. Proper tasty. Possible contender for best fruit beer i’ve tasted.

There’s the thread mentioned above.

I doubt it.
