    Unless you want to annoy the recipient avoid Home Delivery Network.

    When I were a lad there was a kid in school who had one just like them. Just one tho'.

    Spookily I logged on to post the same question.
    New neighbours, who in themselves are very pleasant, have two of the vile creatures who have adopted the border by our garage door as their toilet.
    Currently it's dropped back over their fence.
    To those that suggest it's what cats do and we should accept it – no. I will not accept animal excrement being deposited in our back garden which my young son plays in.
    I'll try the lemon/mustard powder idea and failing that I may have to buy a Toyota.

    Aziz on Cowley Road for an exceptionally fine curry.
    Used to regularly have lunch in the Nosebag, but has gone downhill badly over recent years imho.

    If the Soul suits then the donor idea looks good. Also, I'd suggest you have a look at a P7 with a few upgrades.

    Tried to buy 5 Conti inner tubes from Wiggle. Sent 1. Contacted them. Sent 3 more. Another contact and got the 5th. After all that I have to say that I, like James, found them to be second only to Bonty in terms of cr@pness.

    Sounds like Alnwick to me.
    Berwick Upon Tweed has a certain down-at-heel charm.
    Rented a cottage on Holy Island a couple of times. Total chill out. Not too remote as long as you pay attention to the tide tables.

    . . . .and when your knees give out you can gear up your P7. For what its worth I currently have a Soul and a 2007 P7 s/s. Although theres not much in it I have to say the P7 wins by a nose.

    Mud X's here too. Also fine for what passes for summer around here.

    2.0 Mud X coped admirably around Woodcote & Stoke Row this weekend.

    If it makes the PENs price tag any more palatable, I understand Olympus are giving away the matching flash which retails around £150 for those that register their PEN via t'interweb.

    4.2's are fine, but getting them on WTB Speedmaster rims can be a pain.

    If cost is an issue check out cartridge prices too, unless you are ok using non-manufacturer replacements. Epson replacements for my R800 are hideously expensive.

    Always used excercise, and this year started using a Lumie dawn lamp, which seems to be helping. Felt like someone flicked a switch in my head this year when the clocks changed. Not sure if it's the gradually increasing light from 6am to 06:30, or the sudden shock of John Humphries at 06:30, but I am getting out of bed in a more agreeable mood (she says.)

    If its natural gas (ie it smells the same as the stuff coming out of your cooker) the danger is . . . . it may go bang and kill you. No idea, but a CORGI registered installer should have one. Get it looked at by someone who knows what they are doing.

    Big improvement on 52, which seemed cobbled together around a very weak 'theme'. Can only assume the return of the Editor made the difference. (Can I have some free stuff now please.)

    I'd say sparkle blue, but they don't offer it any more. Not much help really, but it is (was?) the mutts.

    Wouldn't get too obsessive about distance, HR etc if you are just doing it as a supplement to riding, to keep in reasonable shape. Go by duration and perceived effort, and it'll cost nothing.

    Interestingly, we holidayed in Morocco last spring, and for insurance purposes it was categorised with Europe. Last time I checked it was a couple of stops west of Tunisia. Used Insure & Go for insurance by the way.

    The joy of Photoshop. Weird in so many ways, but mostly the ears.

    Didn't take them off the bike at all last year. Foolishly swapped them for Nevegals in May, so you can blame me for the poor summer.

    Rather ride than waste time fretting over something so trivial, IMHO of course.

    BG Stick-e front/Nev dtc back on geared HT, pair of Nevs on s/s. Run the BG 5psi softer. On balance I think I prefer the pair of Nevs.
    Pretty academic til next year as unless there is a major turnaround in the weather the Mud X's will be back on before the month is out!

    Definately give the E620 serious consideration – I opted for it in preference to the Nikon 5000 & Canon 500D and haven't been disappointed.
