    Phone wise the best thing I did was jump from idevices to android. The iPad is still the best tablet out there IMHO, but is still muchos ‘spensive. The Sony ones are catching up very quickly though.
    I haven’t really played with macs, but Apple’s OS doesn’t make me go ooooohhhhh, Windows 10 did though.

    The original send up video of the gent (not sure if he was Asian or Middle Eastern) saying Peppa the Pig is evil etc is comedy gold IMHO. Especially as it really antagonised the nutters into some hilarious Youtube xenophobic rants.

    I just wish they could do something “different” the one in 2004 was bloody awful (I’ve not heard the new one yet). Shirley someone could pen a more up to date song? Hashing some slightly different lyrics into the old one to is a bit meh.

    Check the geo out on the Boardman site and see how it compares to your current bike or one similar. I ride a small (just under 5’8″) and it fits “me” just fine. The medium didn’t feel right when I tried it (TT was too long).
    They are ace bikes by the way, I love mine.

    Yup never had a problem on my Defy for the 3 1/2 years I rode it (only size I could use guards with).

    Rammstein. Even if you don’t like shouty Germans, the show is awesome. Also Pink puts on a ruddy good show.

    Grab whatever I fancy wearing. However last ride out on the MTB I wore baggies and hated it (kept catching on my saddle). May have to stick to purely Lycra.

    My £25 Regatta Landscape parka is the dangly bits of the dogs. Waterproof and bloody warm, I am genuinely impressed by it

    My PC hasn’t been switched on since getting a Chromebook a few months ago.
    It’s excellent, I use Google docs for uni work and stream to my Chromecast, Bluetooth Harman/kardon speakers and it’s ace for integration with my android phone.

    My mate got hit from the side by a car (he somersaulted clipped in and landed on the car bonnet) he had physical injuries and a written off bike. It took over a year for his claim!!! So prepare to strap in.

    Bulgaria?? It seems to be ridiculously cheap to eat and drink (mate has a few apartments out there and his brother has an apartment in the ski resort.

    For kayaking (needs translating)

    I watched 22 jump Street last night and loved how it just didn’t take itself seriously. They are both worth a watch as they are so daft. TMNT is a good action romp.

    I think, our Skoda and Rover are safe!!

    You’d think so, but the in-law’s neighbours had their 5 or 6 year old Astra convertible nicked in the same way as the OP’s mate. It wasn’t anything special at all.

    And why is it that pedestrian groups always split in the middle and leave not quite enough room through the centre?

    So you can double high 5 as you go through!!

    On the shared Sustrans route I commute on, it’s usually Dog walkers with their 80ft dog leads taking up all of the path. I usually get daggers or chunnering from them? Makes me chuckle, as you get moaned at if you are on the roads paid for by “road tax” or if you use the designated paths. People are idiots!!!

    It appears to be missing: the RAF Regt generic banter book, a CCS DVD, and the open handed gesturing feature.

    I tend not to bother with the news as it is mostly fear mongering. We appear to becoming like America, where everyone is out to get you!! Russell Howard’s Good Newa is my main news source 🙂

    I’m similar height and ride a 16″ I have upgraded the wheels as I already had them (std wheels are fine though) and it’s bloody ace!!!
    I’ve 24 hour raced it, xc raced it and trail centred it and it rides a treat!!! Haggle them down on price I got mine for less than £700. It’s replaced a Salsa El Mariachi.

    I have the 2014 alloy TCX SLR and love it.

    Changed the wheels and tyres straight away due to their weight (2200g a set), went for the Kinesis wheelset.

    I’m glad I read that, as I think the wheels are damn heavy. Love the bike though.

    I bought the 29er pro HT for a ridiculous price. I bloody love it!! Rides an absolute treat. My Salsa is going up for sale.
