    Perhaps it’s just mine. The sidelight is low behind a cap but at the end of a tube towards the wing/arch behind the fuel filtre. Try as I might I could only get hold of the wires, not the clip. No matter done now.

    There should be a list of jobs stupid people will do for nothing. In the end it cost the dealer 35minutes of time and me £2.50.

    Newish shaped Fabian it was. My hand couldn’t fit down and through the tube down which the bulb was hiding. Oddly the water cap disappeared almost immediately into the wheel arch. It is the ironically named ‘sport model – by which they mean bowls.

    Nice work. How do you host stuff from there. Almost as clever as some of the builds. Lumicycle as I remember stopped selling the halogen cans after people started using them for everything.

    I’d be interested too as i have a pair from a few years ago and I’ve decided they are too small, mine are the ones built with American-irony, e.g. they are bloody freezing!

    And i’ll be amazed if the arch liner isn’t removed to do it. Either that or he can scratch both ears at the same time with one hand.

    I love the ones I fitted to my cx. Much more confidence now as the stopping is predictable and powerfull. Bb5/7’s feel soft and lack bite.

    The lower bolt is free as the top bolt and it’s wedge came out while trying yo remove all of it. Star nut prevents access from below. Outer sleeve feels stuck I mugshot have to get a bearing puller into it to remove it. Then go back to THE SFN.

    Not that many offered us insurance, Adrian Flux is the latest after the last company decided to to offer cover. Oddly at least three companies refused to cover it because of my job. Journalist. Happy it’s covered with AF.

    Could have given you a new caliper save you the trouble. I gave up with my set of 5’s and then 3’s.

    I saw in Shipley aldi some SDS drills for 39 quid. They’ll work for 20 minutes but it would do the job.

    What laptop for a photography student?

    Speaking as one, I’d say a laptop that does other, better paied more dependable work too.

    They’d closed hadn’t they? Normally the staff stopped being paied at end of business.
    I used them twice – didn’t enjoy either experience really. So I’ve decided NOT to use them again. Simple.
    Same goes for a shop in kirkstall in leeds.

    Don’t bother with them. The item will mysteriously not arrive and you’ll have them claim against your paypal account. Seriously don’t bother, stuff appears to either dissolve in transit or become completely useless when it arrives in say Italy. trust me. Save yourself the bother.

    Love stealth campers. Wish our (obvious) camper was more hidden as you can get your head down in more free locations without having trouble. Enjoy that.

    Check she hasn’t shoved the tow bar up under the car. If it was fitted with one.

    We did the return in a day driving our camper van from well below Toulouse to the train in 11 hours including lunch. We took the route outlined above

    Evreux, Dreux, Chartres and then to Orleans

    it was really nice driving tolls are easier with someone on the right side of the car (left) and we certainly avoided Paris.

    So the helpful advice from STW to the short top tube question is
    ‘She doesn’t need one’
    Quite fed up with these answers – what if she does? My wife is 5’2″ and were struggling to find anything comfortable.

    I did see the bike cameras shift when at extreme angles almost like a chromatic aberration of white ghosting. I was thinking this might have been the stabilisation reaching its max point and the image quality degrading.
    The slow motion might be a band width issue where a drop in signal rather than black screen buffers the footage to close the gap. Live tv isn’t actually live. It’s seconds late.

    If you could put the recordings onto a drop box folder those without such clever tech would be able to watch them?

    Is it a straight conversion? The ‘ c’ refers to the same dimension as it would in inches Yes?

    Having recently been downgraded from cs to elements I’m amazed to find so much still there. For what we do (newspapers) elements is no problem.

    I’ve seen few transits i would like to own. Visually I can’t get builders vans or scrap collectors out of my head when I see them. If you were buying one with your own money I want to look out and see something I like on the drive. Not gypsies.
    Vw made a van car like first. The t4 is no better no drive than a transit. It’s no way as refined as a t5 but it lacks the poor image transits gained . Ours us a 2000 1.9td model and not a spot of rust on the bodywork anywhere. There isn’t a spot of power under the bonnet mind but I’ve far more affection for those like it than even a pimped transit of similar age.

    You have to question what people take images of accidents for. If your reporting on an incident then thats what you’ve been asked to do. However several things sprang to mind just this morning. Professional photographers (should) have . I have sadly seen many people at accident scenes who’ve not survived – but the idea of photographic them is dreadful. If i took an image of a dead person IT WOULD NEVER BE USED! therefore it would be a useless intrusion. I can’t understand why people with camera phones choose to photograph an accident scene. Who are they sending it to or sharing it with. At least we have guidelines and a picture editor who’d lick my ass up the newsroom!

    Don’t even start me on this one. On a professional level there are lots of rules some official others personal which guide whet happens at a scene. Some others are made up by creative police officers who confuse what I do for a living with some kind of hobby. If I were out and came across an accident I’d help.
