    I did make the mistake of wet shaving my chest once, lots of ingrowing hairs and looked like a boy for a week

    I recently used some Iron Rain which is a deposit remover for car body work then used halfords brake cleaner and they are much better, plus quite a lot shinier which is nice.

    tbh I would rather have one which blocks RFID from all but the card I place on the outside to avoid card clash but without making me take my card out.

    I made a blue roll holder using some old curtain pole mounted horizontally and one side of a shimano bb to keep the roll from falling off.

    I have had a few Crane ones from aldi and they are good quality

    I have a couple of DHB’s and they are decent too.

    I have the fox Ranger it is a decent top but when you put stuff in the pockets it pulls at the neck which isn’t pleasant

    I painted mine white throughout using a masonry roller
    I have kitchen cabinets along the back wall, work top on that with a vice bolted on.

    3 big fluorescent tubes in the garage, I have a guard over the one over the bench as I have a tendency to hit them with stuff I am working on.

    Roller cab with all the tools in.

    3d Super woofer for listening to capital gold

    Racks along one wall

    Brush guard under the door

    fitted an electric opener to the door, this has a courtesy light on it which is handy for quick visits.

    Bikes are largely up on the wall out of the way.

    two double sockets over the bench, one double mid way and another double by the door.

    I have carpet throughout, every time a friend or family re-carpets I get a fresh/old bit

    Need to get some insulation for the door and wifi extenders from the house.

    I also have an alarm

    Its a bit tidier than this at the mo.

    my other mate is 6′ and on a large rune

    It depends on how you like your bikes to fit

    The feed stations are quite busy once you are well clear of London.

    Richmond park was a good point to take on some water and that, loads of free Hi-5 tablets being given out so don’t bother carrying much with you.

    The CD player is gonna be a touch on the bright side the amp a fairly warm sound.

    for some speakers to be balancing that Tannoy are a good bet.

    B&W can be a touch bassy but given you have a sub that sounds like your sort of sound.

    We all have to learn and his old man sorting it out won’t get him anywhere.

    Yeah they have changed the tubing so it looks a bit smoother.

    I’m happy enough with this, bolt through 12mm axle, stealth dropper routing, tapered head tube, tidy under top tube cable routing, its a lot of right!

    I have been using the finned sintered shimano’s for the last 4 years and they are well worth the money, no stupid honking, consistent braking and decent wear rate.

    Uber equivalents are rubbish by comparison

    You could be a trainer for various businesses.

    It needn’t be an indoors role depending on what you specialise in.

    You’d have to like the sound of your own voice though.

    I have had a Lidl type one for about 6 years or so. they are ok but nothing compared to my Park one I have now.

    So much more stable and easy to use.

    The money is well spent if you work on bikes a reasonable amount.

    I’ve had one for 9 years, it only just went mouldy this year.

    I would buy again.

    You would be much much better off getting your forks, dropper and Shock serviced regularly than kidding yourself a spray on lube is going to save the day. If you are not sure what regular is then consult manufacturers or your local service agent.
    Consider the total replacement costs of any of those items.

    Keep your bike clean and change parts when they start to show the first signs of wear, the longer you leave things like chains, cassettes etc the more likely you are to be wearing other components.
    Chain checker is about £2-4 Lube £2-5.

    Openreach are not very helpful at times, at Work we are trying to get a Fibre line taken into a meeting room.

    The Fibre line terminates in a ceiling outside the room and the route is up to them indoors its not a pretty area it doesn’t matter if its wiggly surface wiring.

    They want £1883 !!! wtf

    Materials are £150 they want the rest for clipping a cable to a wall.

    Is yours a rolling code type?

    If so you need to order a rolling code type

    I have this one which learned both the rolling code of my garage opener as well as the fixed code of my garage alarm.

    simple solution is that dress is broken, if you want your nose to remain unbroken I would take her out shopping for a new one, and book a nice restaurant.

    My brother in law had a girl Husky when him and my Missus shared a house, she was a brilliant dog.

    Very social, loved to play, needed lots of exercise and used to escape from time to time. She was often off the lead in large parks, she used to face up to other dogs but nothing more than barking at each other at worst.

    The moulting periods was hard work and she needed a lot of brushing to keep on top of that.

    Unfortunately he had to give her up for adoption as his Mrs is not a Dog lover, a proper shame, I’d have taken her on but I spend so long out of the house each day it wouldn’t have been fair to her.

    On the warm weather side of things she used to love sun bathing and regularly pushed one or other of us off our sun loungers so she could get comfortable.
