    How many fuses would I need to cost 25quid. Even if I bought them in Harrods I doubt over a lifetime of blowing fuses would I spend 25 squid!
    I’m out!

    Wow that’s a considerable amount of information. It’s had a new cable. New outer and I’ve checked the routing under the tape and it’s as free as I’d expect. The under bb is also clean and burr free. The mech spring Is as strong as I expect it to be. I can make the bike shift but it’s tough, she can’t really get it to go up to top ring and when it drops from top to Middle it misses and goes to granny ring.
    I’m suspecting the shifter.
    Or her small hands.
    Or both.

    I’m not paying for the fancy delivery method as as long as they arrive before Friday that will be fine, just suggesting the time between order and dispatch was longer than expected, I’ve ordered stuff from them that’s been delivered faster than this dispatch notice has arrived?

    We had to replace our Tumbler and discovered that the vented ones are being phased out as they aren’t green enough. (n.b might be salesman bull…) Condensers will be all you can buy before long. heat pumps work well, but are expensive at the moment. We went for another condenser.

    I was thinking about the black for 4k or the more useful 2.7k for image stab. in post. Not bothered about the screen on the back as if you’ve got the app you won’t need it. 120 fps in 1080 mode is very handy.
    I’ve got a Go pro 960 from years ago which has been stuck and filmed load of stuff but is a bit low resolution now.

    I’ve got the garmin etrex but don’t use it much. I find the battery very troublesome and I can’t reply on it. I’ve got the watch GPS which last much much longer and i can navigate from it sort of.

    Two. Usually because one does something the other doesn’t. Speed/video.
    Sometime just one if I’m lugging other stuff like tripods/ lights and don’t need the fps aspect.

    Do you have a facebook notification you could share with STW-towers as I’ve got lots of friends in the area I could do with sharing it with.

    I’ve not noticed them changing unless the change is rapid. It did allow me to have one set of lenses that did 2 jobs. Clear and sun.

    Oh crap! Could be a long frustrating night. Thanks. I’ve asked for the wifi, might gave to run away from the match now and then.

    Jam was that at the stadium in question or generally? I’m sure it’s as fast as a greased cat.

    Hum, afterwards is not an option. Print deadline cones minutes after final whistle if normal time and they just will not wait. I’m happy that 4 is better than 3. 3 is absent in most busy locations and nothing gets through when you need it. Fewer people have 4. I hope this would let me send to a less crowded network. Wifi is available, but it’s not where close to the giant green thing they insist on playing on.

    Might work, might not I guess, any reading fans out there want to offer first hand info? I’m not taken with it for personal use. I don’t need to watch videos when out and about. Email is currently fast enough. It’s just the competition for band width during popular events that crushes the 3G service.

    We haven’t seen him or the car move since yesterday’s incident. Looking for parts today.

    The d90 is a good camera, light and shoots well in good light. Spend some money you save on the body on a lens. Something with better quality than the crappy kit lenses these cameras spend their lives stuck to the back of.

    Oh the 1.4 diesel three cylinder engine is not too great IMO. Noisy tick over and average mpg means it’s the last small diesel I’ll buy. And it’s got a PDF! Oh the horror.

    Can you turn off the fabia’s double press to let the wife in system? I might have that done. I bloody hate it!

    We can do the journey in one go but it is quite a trip to not far from Luchon started out at 815 and got into calais at 7 that evening with a couple of stops for lunch and tea. Between 2 of us it wasn’t bad – we had to do it it wasn’t a choice. our VW cruises at 60 to 65 (old T4) which is a long day but with plenty to listen to and chat about it wasn’t bad. Faster car and more drivers would be perfectly enjoyable.

    Toughest bit for us is getting to Kent from Leeds. Driving in the uk is frankly shyte. Getting into France you fined loads of stuff to stop in. We cross late at midnight if possible. Get an hour into fence away from Calais. Then stop and drop at an aire. Less stress just traveling till you feel weary then pulling over for a rest when ever it’s required.
    You’ll do the drive in a long day. It’s good driving bug better knowing your not going to gave to hit some self imposed target.
    Enjoy.

    Could you use a spot of vulcanising glue? Is that food safe?

    Thanks it’s the sort of personal recommendation that might not lead to being shafted.

    I found that some phone chargers produce high pitch noises while they charge the phone. I can her them perfectly. Our current Iphone ones don’t make a sound. but anything that transforms power makes some kind of sound.

    Fitting the tow bar was a mornings work, fitting the wiring was the rest of the day. Did save a bit of cash but took quite a bit of time.

    80 days, is that all? Oh god how much longer is this going to take. Pick a prick contest so far isn’t doing anything for me.

    Format is fine for recovering images. Done it a few time with jobs that got forgotten about in a rush and formatted over. pressing Delete on each individual image however buggers them completely.

    Can’t you warm the free hub body with a hair drier or torch then use the 2p trick?

    Good let me know. It used to be free but a lexar card is possibly a good investment.
