    Oh, and run yourself through one of the free credit checkers to see if anything you don’t recognise has been set up using your details.

    This was a very good idea. Using the experian free trial I’ve seen that someone has set up an direct debit on my account.

    Vodafone have cancelled the account and I’ve cancelled the card related to the account used to set up the DD.

    The only thing I can think is it’s come from Carphone Warehouse via vodaphone as I have been a customer of CPW in the past.

    And is your current sim only ‘contract’ with vodafone?

    No. Never had anything to do with vodaphone

    We contacted the company who arranged collection and gave the wife a £200 bracelet as a ‘thank you’ for our honesty.

    Not sure vodaphone are going to be that generous…

    Just phoned the logistics company who gave me the number for vodaphone who said drop it into a vodaphone shop.

    It’s not an upgrade as I buy my phones out right and have sim only contracts.

    I ride a El Mariachi SS with niner carbon forks. In fact I don’t ride anything but rigid. I was looking for a rigid geared bike for a mate and thought this looked good value.

    I use a couple of things depending on time and whether I want super close shave.

    Have a search for skull shaver bald eagle. Its a US thing but designed for shaving all round your skull. pretty good.

    I use a razor in the shower for a really silky smooth close shave.

    I have also just started using the phillips one blade which is pretty good.

    You could interview/vet people wishing to contribute.

    Like applying for a job. Why not join GDS and get paid for contributing?

    My main gripe at the moment is how the UK govt hands billions over to foreign companies to fail to produce anything properly useful.

    10bn for IT systems that underpins government’s £500bn in annual revenue collection.

    It’s not about using open source – it’s about letting everyone see what you are doing and crucially *join in*.

    I very much doubt you’ll be able to join in but you will be able to watch.

    What do you mean publicly paid for code?

    The Government Digital Service publishes it code on github already.

    Thanks. I have a particularly large head (63cm approx) so I’m limited with choice.

    You get two sides with the halfords one. It’s plenty big enough at 3.5m square. We used mine for a wet weekend in the Peaks. 12 adults sat around a table in it quite comfortably.

    stupid question…

    Can you use mountain bikes to race CX?

    I’d love to have a go but don’t really want to shell out for a CX bike as I have a 29er already.

    I have a series 5 samsung smart tv with eurosport player. I have a samsung PVR too which doesn’t have eurosport player app.

    I don’t think all smart hubs on all samsung smart tvs are the same.

    I have a Pioneer AVH-X3700DAB. It does DAB, bluetooth streaming, USB, AUX and makes and receives phone calls.

    I got the window DAB aerial from halfords along with the harness adaptor and fascia.

    The hardest part was finding the right fuse to get the ignition switch.

    I’ve also wired up a reversing camera.

    I’ve not had any problems with DAB reception it’s been flawless. USB stick access can take up to 10000 tracks and bluetooth connectivity it great.

    I’ve not bothered with a sat nav cos I use Copilot app on my phone.

    I used to ride 32:18 around Cannock Chase. It’s good to get you going and build strength/fitness. 32:17 seems to be where it’s at for me at the moment. Dropping one tooth doesn’t seem like much but it feels a lot harder on the climbs and has made me faster on the flat.

    I bought an OPX for my wife. Lovely phone, great screen, expandable storage, what’s not to like? It won’t stream music to her Toyota via bluetooth! Deal breaker! Crappy 1st Gen Moto G did it no problem. Anyone else have problems?
