    Another vote for MIU – when I finally went in, I was told that they can grow “just about anything” from a road wound swab. Mine was rotten after 3 days.

    Well, jamba gets a lot of stick, so: “good luck”.

    Jambalaya, you’re all over the forum right now, and it seems you’re really trying to make a good impression too.

    I like the bikes, good luck in general.

    Bring back Reel to Reel.

    I blew my Sony one up years ago (who the hell puts identical 12 and 240v input sockets bloody merged together??!) 🙁

    Schooners? Pwaw, you’re not doing too badly, guys. In my (new) local, I was fed up with annoying 300ml bottles (in combination with very slow table service being the norm), it was just not slaking my thirst!

    I perused the drinks menu looking for the largest looking serving, based on the handsome pictures provided…

    It turned out to be a Warstiener, which when it came 10 minutes later was a 200ml bottle, served with a flourish!

    It seems the photos are “not to scale”

    Hardly worth it really, but apparently just ordering 5 at a time is considered uncouth, and will only harm the image of the Brits.

    I might upload a photo of the local later though, it makes it just about worthwhile!

    Teac made good tape transports too.

    You’d better get some form of assurance that it still works, many will have loose belts now.

    One of the above offers is probably a safe enough bet.

    Leftfield option –
    Sony portable [don’t pay a fortune for a “classic” though]

    …and considering the “selling out” controversy

    Controversial in that it didn’t work[/quote]

    I finished a bike build the other day, popped a set of pedal fingertight on to test it out, looked down carefully as I rode gently forwards – axle staying put…. rode 2 m further forward [and past several old hands in the factory] – the RHS pedal drops out ruining the chainset threads.

    As a kid, I was excited to receive an xmas Sigg bottle like the cool kids had at school! Legged it up the stairs to show my dad annnnd…. tripped on the steps and slammed it in to a step to break my fall.

    Looked like a crushed drinks can after. That was that.

    I’m assuming that you didn’t drown them in the canal?

    Tempting, I bet.

    Healing vibes from me too, muppetdude.

    I dunno, I’d feel a little odd. I guess I’m just interested as it seems to have kicked up a gear and I for one welcome our new robot overlords, sorry, I mean I have an interest in how the site is going, and in what direction. 🙂

    Yes, sure, but you did say infrequent!

    Anyway, sounds like the the Brother might be a good call in that case.

    Budget colour lasers are generally a bit halftone-y aren’t they?

    I’d head to the printshop.

    New standard, innit?

    I’d be wary of spending money on an older laptop, eventually the motherboards tend to fail and then it’s junk. However, you should be able to reuse the SSD if you buy one [though you will have to reinstall Windows if you do that].

    I can’t find an “i3 2400 4mb” to compare for you, but if it’s an i3, dual core, then any modern i3 or i5 will be slightly to significantly faster, and if the est of the system is newer [or sports an SSD] you’ll probably feel the difference.

    Good luck.

    Specialized do a good range of widths within the models, and many stores will also be able to measure your sitbones* to guide you towards promising ones.

    I liked my Brooks, though I killed it with the wrong leather treatment.

    *you sit on a cushion which leaves an imprint, no intimate measuring required.

    Yeah…. The one time I turned up with a pannier to a gig, I forgot I was carrying my Topeak Alien. I had to surrender it, and the joints…

    I got the knife back.

    It was this, right 😉

    (all you need to do is click on the “IMG” box on the right of an individual image, then paste the text in to post an image here

    It should look like this, sorta:

    What do you think they do with the information about products you buy?

    Could it be that they use this information to make more money from you…?
