    Pure Chronos iDock, sound quality is average but it’s OK for the kitchen and cheap.

    The Pure Contour 100Di looks nice though and has more power!

    Can’t work the title out, are you bemused or are you content? Can you be content and bemused at the same time?

    I think he’s content with the contents even though he feels it’s a contentious issue. 😕

    Great customer service, totally beyond what they could have done given their actual warranty obligations.

    Dear Orange, I have a Sub 3 frame in the loft. Can I have a new ST-4 please for cheap. Thanking you muchly. 😉

    Kleensweep sounds very familiar. Pretty sure it was them.

    Would shop around a bit though and get a couple of quotes as it was a couple of years ago now and things may have changed.

    Go out of town, the Edinburgh based ones are extortionate. Can’t remember who we used but they where from Dalkieth or Port Seton or some such place.

    I think they were 1/4 of the price of an Edinburgh company.

    Sorry that wasn’t much help. 😕

    When you go to the BBC homepage it has a story about ‘How do banks go bust’ and there’s a big picture of the RBS sign behind it. 😕

    Gave up on iCloud after it duplicated all my iCal entries and I had to go through a years worth and delete one of each entry. When it next synced it removed the second one and I had a blank calendar. Nice.

    Delay on text entry is a pain as well.

    Lion’s a bit rubbish too. But that’s another story.

    If you’re fitting Dmax and 36s I would go for the Nomad C. The weight difference is minimal and those components are better suited to it.

    Or get a Mojo HD.

    Running BBB from Dotbike on my XTR960 mech and they have been perfect. Been on there for a couple of years now.

    Cheap and good.

    Chameleons are great. I have one built up fairly light with 140 forks and use it for most ‘everyday’ riding.

    Other than that, a lot of people like the Cotic Soul.

    It’s wireless enough for me..

    Ha, ha, fair enough.

    I just love the way Apple market things. My TV also wirelessly receives television programs. All I need to do is plug in the aerial and power cable. 😉

    Note: I am one of the suckers that buys this stuff so shouldn’t really complain.

    Wireless syncing is ace.

    When they say wireless they mean that you still have to plug it in to a power source. So by wireless they mean not wireless. 😕

    Syncing iCal with iCloud duplicated all the entries in my Calendar and when I turned it off they stayed there. I had to go through every entry and delete 1 of the 2. When I then switched iCloud/iCal sync off it removed the other entry and left my calendar empty.

    I think you can guess what I think of the latest iOS.

    Don’t get me started on OSX Lion. 🙁

    Pea and Rosemary?

    One of the easiest soups ever and great at Christmas.

    1kg frozen peas
    2 cloves garlic (crushed)
    2 pints vegetable or chicken stock (1 1/2 pints for a thicker soup)
    3 large onions
    5 sprigs of rosemary

    – sweat 3 onions and the garlic till soft.
    – add frozen peas, stir and cover for a few minutes until bright green.
    – add stock and rosemary (don’t chop rosemary as leaves fall off during cooking).
    – simmer for 40 mins.
    – fish out rosemary stalks, leaves should have dropped off in pan. Counting them in and out makes sure you don’t miss any.
    – blend until smooth with hand blender.
    – season to taste.
    – you can add a swirl of cream when serving if you like.

    Not sure about this result. The 1862 addendum to the Hailstone process, and I quote, ‘ a player following a directional move with any station on the jubilee line is placed in Nidd’ and 16stonepig should surely have sat out the next three moves?

    Landlord’s permission sounds sensible.

    It sounds like an AGA would still leave a fallback position of liability on some level so it looks like a Solicitor’s involvement would be wise and a sub-lease/reassignment.

    Really want a water tight situation, handing over any liabilities to the other party so there are no surprises right to the end of the lease.

    Thanks for all the info and advice. Much appreciated.

    Cheers, that’s kind of what I was thinking.

    The 2 people are in a partnership at the moment and 1 wants to leave the business and leave the other in charge taking on the lease and all the liability for rent etc. The lease runs for another 18 months and it would have been nice to think that a cheap (free) option would be a typed agreement saying that the remaining partner assumes all liabilities in the master lease.

    The remaining partner does not think there is a need for anything other than a verbal agreement but the other partner (my interest is with this side) is worried they will be open for major issues should there be a problem (roof collapse) or default on rent.

    I guess the cost of a formal sub-lease drawn up by a solicitor would be worth it’s weight in gold should there be problem.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks for the reply.

    The lease states that sub-letting is OK if landlord informed which is fine. But can it be done as an informal agreement between the 2 people without involving the landlord?

    Also would any agreement be legally binding should there be an issue, i.e. a roof repair or similar, so would it remove the liability for the second person?

    I have the Carbon one’s on my Heckler and the Alu one’s on my hardtail. Haven’t noticed any flex on either and can’t really say I notice much difference between the two, other than about £50. 😉

    Me!

    Just happened to plug in to charge at 6pm and clicked update without thinking.

    400MB to go and 52 minutes remaining apparently.

    Think I’ll cancel and try again tomorrow.

    Hope Hoops are good value, string and reliable. Go for Stan’s Crest rims if you want something really light or Flow rims for a bit more beef but still fairly lightweight. You can pick up a set for around £280 at the moment.

    I think Si from Progressive had a couple of sets ‘left over’ which he was punting at £260. Not sure if he sold them yet.
