OP’s first post here. And you’ve all fallen for it.

I didn’t. I just didn’t want to be the first to shout Troll

How do I get my money back if I pay using PayPal gift??

:roll:

tut tut tut

Dream bike for me. just can’t afford one! nice pics guys keep em coming!

will slowly move onto the JD honey with ice and my cheese board !!

I didn’t think cheese boards were drinkable!

No-ones mentioned Bridgwater

You mean the Dishwater – the Homogenous pool of crap that’s left after washing your dirty dishes!

Crap TV listings playing all the same movies as previous years.

The queues in the supermarkets

The amount of food I eat and booze I drink

the fact that my partner works shifts and rarely gets chirstmas off

I think the 90deg adapter will make the theoretical problem worse. if someone was to trip over the cable, it should just pull straight out. if you put it on a 90 deg bend the force will twist the connector into the machine and probably cause more damage.

At least your machine has the cable coming out from the back. mine sticks out from the side and is often in the way!

Lamb on crimble day – wrong

I don’t buy into this american fad of eating factory-grown, hormone-fed, fat and water-laden turkey. tis all about the red meat.

As for the yorkshires comment: yorkshire puds are good with any kind of meat you heathen!

I’m a Darrener, for my sins though I now live in Caernarfon which has it’s own breed too

Yorkshire and Turkey – well I never did!

We’re having leg of lamb

Did we all mention a HOT oven and oil ????

This is quite possibly the problem. I sometimes forget until hte last minute and end up rushing, not letting the oil heat up. That reminds me, I need to go get some Goose fat. Off to Morrisons I go. I’ll be back in three hours judging by yesterday’s queues!

Thanks

Thanks folks, might get some of that crossweave stuff. kinda hoping I could do it today but I ain’t going riding for a few days so it can wait!

thanks folks

I stopped mid-trail once. I felt like a right git for stopping right in the middle of a descent because of a puncture. shame on me.

Your braided hoses? erm…nice? :wink:

I think it was grand master flash playing at one point last time and you couldn’t hear the tunes he was playing because he was MC’ing over the top of it…BADLY!

Steel is real. Bfe, Soul, P7 to name a few. the world of steel awaits you!

It was garbage the first time. why would you want to watch what is essentially a radio set?

is it possible to cycle from Snowdon to Antur Stiniog?

on the road…yes

over the mountains – I highly doubt it!

There are 8 walking routes up snowdon, I think only about half of these are ridable – Rhyd Ddu, Snowdon Ranger, Llanberis. The first of these isn’t often done I don’t think. the Ranger is quite popular due to it’s relative quietness of walkers compared to the Llanberis.

I am not sure if the Watkin has ever been done but you’d not ride off the summit in a hurry!

I wouldn’t bother camping on the summit – it’s not the cleanest of summits. You can get up and down in an afternoon/evening and this time of year is a lot quieter than most other times though we might get a cold snap again soon which would make it a death trap.

The consensus is generally to decend via Snowdon Ranger. The Llanberis path has been manicured for the walkers and has too many rock gardens on it now.

it’s not that I care but am bored with the media over stating how bad anything is, the weather, the economy, health etc etc

And this ‘inaccuracy’ is the straw that broke the camel’s back, is it?

Get a grip man and enjoy your christmas

If you also get on a train and havent bought a ticket, and get off at the destination without having bought a ticket, then you have defrauded the railway company

This is only true if the stop isnt manned by a cashier or ticket machine.
The same applies for shop lifting – you can’t be done for shoplifting until you’ve walked past the last point of paying and exited the building.

rogan josh is always a winner in my book but then it totally depends on the establishment about how good it is.

I prefer the saucy hot ones like Madras but that’s just personal preference.

I doubt you’ll be dissapointed with the Josh!

its illegal to avoid paying for a ticket. It is not illegal to board a train without a ticke if you intend on buying one either on the train or at your destination

Sad thing is, there are grown men who act in the same way as he did – he needs telling to pipe down if he ever wants to enjoy a night out.
It might not stop him drinking to excess but it might mean he won’t be so gobby next time!

It only takes a wrong word spoken to the wrong person for a jovial night to turn into something more serious e.g. a police cell or, god forbid, a hospital bed!

Rabbit?

The dog wouldn’t like that! :lol:

I did promise that I would build her a bike one day(she’s hardly ever ridden a bike since she was a kid) but I don’t know how she would take to me buying her a new frame!

Thanks for that McHamish, i’ll look into those. she’s always going on about making cushions and stuff but I don’t think she actually knows how to properly use the machine yet!

sewing and baking books ordered, now for the sexy underwear!

she recently aquired a sewing machine and does like baking, great stuff keep em coming. thanks

Spa or hairdo pampering that is

There is a spa place nearby but I keep thinking ‘would want it for a christmas present’. bearing in mind that I am not a girl, perhaps it is the wrong question to the wrong person.

Tried asking her for a list?

I’ve asked her numerous times for suggestions or hints but got nothing in response.

I got her jewelry last year, clothes and the like are a minefield of wrong sizes and colours.

you are talking like we are all idiots who don’t know the perils of using such a payment method!

58 million views! outrageous – he sounds drunk!

2nd amendment….Why?

it goes something like this

one thing I don’t understand is the woman who got evicted after living in her house for 15 years (and I guess for the family of 6 too) and paying her mortgage for most of that.
The bank now owns the house and put it up for sale, the thing is that the house is worth around 3x what she bought it for, so does she get any money from the bank after the sale?

not if she was paying interest only!

we are having lamb this year. turkey bores me.

got mine this morning, just need the rest of the parts to finally go 1×10. Which rear mech should I go for?

last time I went there was pre-smoking ban and it was the worst place if you didn’t smoke (or even if you did!). they had some quality beers though!

I jjoined the local Mountain rescue team last month.

use a 6:1:1 sand:lime:cement mix. I am considering doing the same to ours but given the distance to the bricks from the fire, I might leave them as they have a nice look. as the very least i’ll be repointing using that ratio.
