I saw a "coffee" shop selling alcohol free Irish Coffees yesterday.

Honestly WTF on so many levels.

Triangle, spare bulbs for all lights and a high viz jacket for all in the car, the hi-viz must be getatable without getting out the car.

change or cc for tolls and it is an urban myth about prosecutions for speeding between toll stations (although no doubt some one will be along ina minute with a a story about their cousin's brother's friend who knew someone that got done)

f-g

none of those but potential on the footpath. I would have though there should be a need for gritting but it may be the last section to be gritted.

Ooo that's low Al very low indeed (only borrow red tops for pg3 oggling).

So if the person agrees to participate they have assumed responsibility? (not quite that simple though is it, as a waiver is not really as straight forward as all that).

So if we go back to the school sports day by taking part have the kids assumed responsibility?

Why is it different if i break my leg in

a) a kick about with mates

b) a solo run round a damp park with no beware of the "damp grass" signs

c) a kick about organised by a local club (except that Al is gunning for my ankles 8O)

and which ones can i claim for?

receives a non perminant injury

Go on then why should you receive compensation for a non permanent injury. I assume you can assess the situation and assuming the organizer is not blatantly negligent (edit; or indeed just negligent) (hence potential HSE contravention) why would you expect a pay out?

Why should anyone?

Maybe if the "accident" leads to a criminal prosecution of the "owner" for whatever contravention of HSE guidlines.

But not for "my coffee was hot" claims.

As above it's a long country.

There's the same sort of difference between the Brittany coast and the Med coast

Only part i'd happily have a go on comes up at about 2.45

Chabal on the podium for the handshake, not sure he can ride a bike but Renshaw wouldn't mess with him no matter what.

Just come round to 30 Southampton St, down the little lane to the left of the house, help yourself fella.

Mind you i've moved out now but give it a go what you got to lose?

Aye but unsure of my legs at the moment.

A gentleman never wears brown shoes after 6pm.

Something very wrong with how fizzy i felt about image 9

It does say £50 up front through paypal then rest on pick up.

Just #uck1n& do it.

Wouldn't be surprised if he stayed until the second day in the mountains and if he hasn't won some stages by then he'll be packing his bags.

Love my job. Paid to do stuff I enjoy, work with some great people, get paid to go out and do stuff, and good holidays. Pay and pensions not bad either.

I'll be at TBC for 6.15 although i may pop in this afternoon for a look at helmets mine is erm……passsed its best.

Maybe the lawyers were deeply ashamed of their own actions.

What about the vultures with cameras around Frank Schlek when he was on the ground a wee push would have had them in the ditch.

As for the reminder part of this thread.

Look at the front of your cert there is a little sticky label with info on it remove this from cert and stick to windscreen or above "tax" disc holder. Job done. Wonder why they put this wee sticky on it in the first place.

Oh and if it's too difficult to remember when your tax and MoT are due then perhaps you are operating outwith your parameters.

5 seems a bit young but 8 should be fine.

Think the school are worried about the whole "in loco parentis" thing which is a bit sad really.

Looks like a goer for me at last double bonus on the beer front as well.

Bivvy extension route?

In the immortal words of STW:

MTFU

Or even

Ouch, my eyes hurt.

Iz 2 ard too reed.

It's not that dangerous just near a population concentration and mid-life crisis bikers and boy racers don't know the limits of their skills.

Yet…………

Best rate i got last year was the atm in bourg d'oisan. for all the difference it made.

What is the "stuff" she's downloading??

Off for a quick lie down i think, maybe do a bit of "downloading".

NnnnnK!!!

I also someimes just sit in teh queue. Allows me to shake my head at RLJs (:-)).

Did have a conversation with a guy who pulled up behind me then pushed passed while waiting at lights (him on pseudo mtb).

Me: I wouldn't sit there mate, he's going left and hasn't seen you.
Him: No indictors so he's gong straight on, you can't tell me what to do.
Me: OK fella crack on.
Him: What the **** he just turned left across me, what a ******, did you see that? **** i'm gonna report him etc, etc, etc.
Me: Have a nice day

Left hand side if plenty of room and no parked cars to get jammed up against otherwise right hand side. I can usuall see far enough down the road to be able to slot in between cars as they move off. Can out accelerate most "in traffic" cars over the first 10m which would allow me to slot back into my usual road position.

Turn it off, pour beer, feet up, job done.

Ties are bally smart and anyway how can one tell which schools the chaps went to without one?

JD that's all i've got approx half way between Edinburgh and London is N Yorks. So somewhere in N Yorks is the destination. Just think of it as a "Where in Scotland" question but narrowed down a bit.

Thanks for the replies so far.

Had to laugh at the two **** in the crowd dressed in RAF uniforms with stick on 'tache. Sorry fellas now you have to walk back to your digs through the exultant German fans. Glad the boys who actually did the job actually did it.

Plenty of that black reflective tape, I've got a semi-wrecked saddle you can have to make it look less loved.

Good rant for randomness and no-one careslessness.

OH come on TJ

"the TBC"

suffering from RAS* symdrome there.
