    Sandwich my point was that the uni was founded, and some of the colleges (Peterhouse 1281 I think) before Henry VIII was born so he couldn’t really have unfounded it. I did my 3yrs there, albeit at an ex-ladies college!

    Can’t go wrong with a children’s charity surely? NSPCC or to get some toys for a kids ward or something?

    The University of Cambridge was established well before Henry VIII was born, although he did alter their focus.

    I thought the Mersey did flow through Manchester until last week, when I ended up cycling to Stockport instead.

    I’m not in the market for forks, just thought it seemed a good deal. Just out of interest what would be the difference between these from merlin and the same forks from elsewhere?

    Most cities in the UK have their industrial centres in the ‘East End’ and the nicer part of town in the ‘West End’. This is because the prevailing winds blow from West to East and so the rich don’t have to smell the foul odours of the underclasses.

    Its a Roy Thame frame 60s or 70s (built by Holdsworth), lugged Reynolds 531, Campagnolo dropouts, in dark blue with lugs picked out in white vgc. Vintage Cinelli stem and 3ttt Mod. Competizione bars. Old brown Brooks B17. Literally fitted new Cinelli natural bar tape tonight. Also brand new wheels, tyres, tubes – the same as on a specialized langster. Got cranks on the way (sq. taper 105’s) and was going to fit a new SRAM PC-1 chain.

    Interested?

    ebygomm – finally an explanation as to why I feel so f*cking starving after swimming. Seriously this has puzzled me for years.

    Thanks Scaredypants, don’t have the old BB unfortunately and need to buy some cranks to suit. I’ll refer to Mr Brown now!

    Depends on how house prices are likely to go in the medium term, I suspect they are going to continue falling for the next 12 -18 months. Effectively, buying a house is investing in a single asset – this will increase your risk in terms of probability of getting a certain return. However, this must be weighed against the low cost of borrowing at the moment and the fact it is a buyers market. If you could get credit at a good rate, fixed for x amount of time, and offer a silly low price to someone desperate to sell it might be worth it.

    Personally I’d keep the money in a savings account and watch the way the market moves in the next 12 months before committing to another mortgage.

    Don’t invest all your money in one stock – very risky! You need a balanced portfolio to reduce the risk to a level you are happy with. Obviously less risk means smaller returns. See a financial advisor.

    Aren’t you taka’s little brother and only 13? If so I would worry to much about it at this stage. Just do more exercise and eat less rubbish.

    I think, unfortunately, as it seems so distant from our own experience and we only ever see it on the tv it is sometimes hard to empathise. Plus, we get a bit desensitized. So, no.

    You won’t go far wrong with the epic, I’ve only heard good things about it, just make sure you try before you buy as it’s a lot of cash to splash without checking it suits
