one for sheldona:

“my other bikes a Jones”

😆

“what goes around goes around goes around goes around goes around and around” (wrap it around the frame like the Cotic stickers)

“if you can read this, rider in ditch”

“actual size”

“your name here”

photos? I’ll keep an eye out around Swindon/Marlborough (and ebay)

yes, somebody who lives 84 miles away from me bought my broken washer dryer, collection only.

each to their own eh 🙂

oh dear, looks like rj just bought the farm 🙁

you went out!?!? are you MaaaaaD?

bad luck Al, time to buy a pair of Straits me old dear!

phew it doesn’t cover the shot blocks

Reluctant what are you doing in my record collection?!?!

I can’t tempt you back over to film? you can buy films for a quid and get them developed in 7 days? 😛

did you know he produced a few Modest Mouses albums? good old Steve Wold eh? 🙂

Singular Periguine or Swift with a nice brookes saddle?

kcuf!!!! I missed the one I wanted to see and now Its the Reading set, which to be honest isn’t a patch on having him play sat next to you in a tiny tent 🙁

I hope that blues tour thing is available on iPlayer soon 🙁

oh good call!

budget? I’m slowly plodding towards the Nikon D90 as I fear buying less of a shooter would leave me upgrading in 12mths where as the D90 looks like it’d have a good 3yrs work in it for my wants & needs.

or just kick the bejesus out of your frame?

I locked my Orange up outside sainsburys the other day, I’ve never been round that store so fast in my life!! 😀

bloody ouch! I just stood on an upturned plug!

but yes, I can do wot the shy and retiring Mr Barnes did

am I right in thinking that its a dome headed nut with randomly spaced impressions that fit only the supplied keys?

if so what’s to stop say some shitbag with a tube of super glue and half a squash ball undoing them by hand?

my boring tyre recommendation answer: High Rollers, they even cope with the dreaded wiltshire clag remarkably well!

I do believe the Park website to be your friend: http://www.parktool.com/index.asp

any good to you?

“it”

I did mine in about 15 years ago too (fell in the deep end of a drained swimming pool), I use a powerball now and then, have you tried “green lipped mussel extract” which some folk swear by?

oh now there’s a woman that I’d happily fill a wardrobe with chickens for!

why not just stick a HR front & rear?

I’m just not “feeling it” are you?

I’ll have a look for my workings out tomorrow, there was a couple of Tax savings/rebates that I found, I’ve got it all down somewhere! 🙂 (there’s also the reduction in N.I. that the employer has to pay)

aiding & abetting?

as you’ve got a HT as well I’d get the A160 if I were you 🙂

well, I feel partially responsible for it as I’ve just watched the video, its all good, I’m still not convinced by the “brown eye view” camera angle, its only slightly less disturbing that the bikeradar “the world moves around Mark Dodd’s head” camera they use.

Still some entertaining stuff there, actually back to disturbing things, was there any need for the “Mark in a Bikini” segment at the end?

😆

I think your employer should have actually made (saved) considerably more, my figures worked out:

The bike costs £999.00 from the shop, after the things that can be claimed back (VAT, Capital Allowance, etc) the bike actually only costs <the company> = (less than) £450.23

Hiring it to me for £16.35 per week brings in £850.20 in 52 weeks

Thus meaning that <the company> make a profit of about £399.00 (probably more if you include the reduction in SC1 NIC payments) on the hire of the bike 52 weeks!

But as its salary sacrifice so there’s savings on Tax & NI (as <your company> do) so the “end of the day, wallet impact” price I pay for the bike is only: £643.28 (not to mention the savings on fuel). All in all you get a bike worth a grand for about £650.00 and <the company> make a tidy £400.00 in the process!

..my guess is that the companies that run the schemes for companys claim back the depreciation of their “assets” as well, but thats just guess work really! (I ran the scheme with no third party company involved, help came from Red Planet Bikes in Swindon in the shape of form templates)

super glue and a bit of old innertube

they’ve taken up smoking crack?

cracking trail, good vid, like the hail too! 🙂

yep the TV was company property, unless he had been told that he could take it by senior management it would have been theft, that said I’ve received a wide screen TV from work in the past, but I had the savvey to get one for the FD at the same time 😉

I think its probably got something to do with the 104 MB video file hanging around in the Blog section?

maxis exciters?
