Is it just me, or is that bike standing up on its own?

Like tails said. Try a headset remover to remove headsets. Stop cocking about with drifts, sockets and random bits of tubing.

And make sure you're trying to remove the headset, not a step machined into the head tube. They're hard to shift.

POSTED 7 HOURS AGO #

you did read the first post didnt you? and see the great big pic of a broken headset remover..

so thats why he asked on here..cos its broken…

Who posted the tag "Who's laughing now"?

that would be interesting to know..

i did that with a pair of gloves here in lausanne, i just pulled the cone out with a screwdriver (wasnt wanting to drive back to the shop!)

sorry to hear that, it wasnt me but im going to alter my profile to avoid any possible future problems with email etc..

It all depends what they do when in surgery. If it is purely an assessment then you should recover fast, a week or two. However if they start cutting and trimming it could take much longer. I had a partial trimming of my lateral meniscus which was damaged in November 09 and can still not walk or ride my bike without pain now.

shaun20…that is a long time..personally i'd get back to physio and speak to them, even ask the surgeon what he/she thinks as that is not normal..not being able to walk without pain almost a year on?

After each of my 4 Arthroscopies (each with lots of trimming and the last even with the ligaments needing fixed) i was walking and cycling pain free weeks after..

Just don't by Sram chains and you'll be fine. It's not something that should ever happen.

nice STW comment there…how do you explain the other side of that story?? I used shimano..they split several times and then having changed to sram never again…hhhmmm

kit breaks..sometimes.

most italian shirts are cut slim..i normally use either italian or as mentioned zara..not posh but..

sorry jon you just get on my tits with stupid remarks.

where i live we use a lot more cash, so im sorry if it'd appear that im gay when out shopping just because of how i store my cash..

How I hate standing behind someone in a queue while they sort through their little tray of coins

kind of nice your life is empty of real problems!

ps i dont have one but my wallet does have a space for coins.

funny how alot of men are so uptight about how things look..its just to hold change..

there was a thread about this..v long with lots of info..

also on there are lots of people like jon1973 who say you're not a man if you dont keep your change in your pockets..strange really..

So JoB…

any news re: book?

odb…do you understand what people are saying here?

or is it not clear enough as advice goes (please note, its STW and people are agreeing…)

There are 3 pages of RUN..sounds like bloody good advice right there.

never been to either, am i missing something?

quite a pricy way to do it tbh – the capsules arent cheap but there are many flavours.

gumtree isnt just for flatshares you know?

loving the english takes on french!

you could ask, for ex. if her name is Beryl*: salut beryl, dit voir…tu veux boire un verre ce soir?

you dont need to say the salut if you're already talking to her..or indeed the dit voir..you could just do a british pause and "uuuhm Beryl.."

*probably not if shes French..

What a funny idea. Milton fluid all the way.

its was is his TV

If something i paid for breaks i replace it, but thats just me.

Depends a lot on where you work to suggest where to live..

As far as biking, you can get on the train quite easily to the hotspots.

Gumtree is pretty useful for flats.

To the OP: It is really hard to read your posts. Punctuation. Helps. A lot.

Quoi??! is that a new form of english that i havent seen before? Im sure my move to Switzerland and learning french have had an impact on my english but WTF??

The more constructive feedback on here is that I could contest it, but there is also some feeling that the bill should just be paid. If you are presented with a bill though, and you don't feel as though you had value for money, do you pay it and learn that lesson, or contest it?

Of course contest it for the reasons mentioned by others above, but i dont think orange should just pay it out of charity (in the OP).

I am sorry if you feel that I attacked your parenting skills but its MHO that she is a spoilt princess with a contract phone paid for before she was 18 anyway – its one of the many problems of yoof these days..everything is free or if not mummy & daddy will sort it out.

Sorry if its a rant, but i have two cousins who are exactly like this and are really struggling at uni/beginning of the big bad world of job & life now because they were treated in a similar fashion.

Funny how many people jump to the conclusion that my daughter is a spoilt princess, and her parents are soft and lack parenting skills.

From what you've said you create this image tbh…she is an adult and really shouldnt (IMHO) have DD and contracts in your name…

can you pay for mine too please? im only 29..

She's 19????

I hope you dont pay for her phone, and her living costs..

The world will be a shock if/when you stop paying for her..

How to say

Who me? what did I say?

All the online translators say different

I'd say this: qui, moi? qu’est-ce que j’ai dit?

you mean like:

Self-Diservice Checkout
SUPERMARKET | SHEFFIELD, UK
(A customer is getting frustrated at the self-checkout.)

Customer: *shouting* “Miss! Miss!”

Me: *with another customer* “One minute, please, I’m helping this lady right now.”

Customer: *goes red in the face* “Miss!”

Me: “Give me a minute, please. I’ll come to you next.”

(The angry customer starts swearing and hitting the machine. The customer I am working with politely offers to wait while I go to the other customer. I apologize and go to the angry customer.)

Me: “Can I help you?”

Customer: “The stupid machine stopped working!”

Me: “An item you have scanned isn’t on the metal bagging pad. Mind if I take a look?”

Customer: *grunts*

(I find that all but three items of a 30+ item shop has not been scanned. I explain the situation.)

Customer: “Oh God, no! I can’t do all this again!”

Me: “No problem! I’ll just put it all through for you.”

Customer: “No! It won’t save me any money that way!”

Me: “You don’t save any money with self-scan checkouts. I mean, you still pay for it all.”

Customer: “This is stupid! I shouldn’t have to pay for it all if I’m doing your job for you!”
