It being on the net isn't a problem,that's how I watch baseball :-)

Bacon and hot lime pickle sarnies,or brown sauce on toast.

See if you can find Dave Lines' "Brewing beers like those you buy",very good on theory and practise,but out of print along time,and I've lost mine :-(

Midnighthour,do you want this date?If you like this man,or what you know of him,then you could set your own ground rules,if he won't accept them,then move on,if he does you never know,it may be a goer.That way you maintain your independence and control.BTW I agree with sfb,perhaps you need a more active social life generally?
Ian

I've never heard it called that before Hora.
Ian

Do you mean the Specialized Tricross?My mate has a singlespeed one for commuting and likes it.
Ian

Personally,I've always treated a first date as a gentle introduction to someone,no fixed ideas about the future,some have been intense and led to quickly developing relationships,where you see alot of each other,some haven't,but it's a lttle worrrying that he has such fixed ideas before the first date,I'd be uncomfortable with a person like that.

There's a useful video on brake bleeding on the Hope site,here http://www.hopegb.com/page_mep_force_33.html.

I've been a nurse for the last 30 years,in general medicine.Can be stressful,but very rewarding at the same time.Financially not bad,as a staff nurse on top scale ,I make about 30k.(that's with unsocial hours payments,etc .I also get 41 days holiday a year)
Ian

Thanx,I'm deffo buying one,but luckily my LBS wil price math James's
Ian

J.E.James had a 9 in 17.5 for £2125 :-(

Bump

No 9's left in my size :-(
Ian

Hi Tracey,which firm? My son is inheriting my ETS-X frame,but wants it green :-(
Ian

OT where can I get a frame coated in or near Sheffield?
Ian

+1 for the Patagonia,but I don't know if they make it anymore.
Ian

I'm afraid my attitude to the major religions is the same as that of an epidemiologist to smallpox,worth studying,but don't want to catch it.
Ian

I'm an atheist,and couldn't have a long term relationship with anyone with strong religious beliefs,mind you,most religions wouldn't like me associating with their members.I got married in an RC church,under pressure from my inlaws,and the priest took great pleasure in telling me that in his eyes I was an impediment to my own marriage,and that we would have to send any sprogs to catholic school.He was a jesuit,so I took great pleasure in reminding him of St.Ignatius's words "give me the child until he is 7 and I will give you the man".
Ian

You don't always know what's coming,I'm 54,and have worked in the NHS for 30 years.I had a small stroke about 3 months ago,and am retiring at 55 with a reasonable pension.If I hadn't got the NHS pension,my family would be stuffed,as I have children aged 7 and 14,and I'm now unable to work.I am very lucky that my wife is very supportive,and not concerned about money,but I wouldn't swap the security of the NHS for any amount of outside cash.
Ian

Panettone,ah,and not too heavy either.
Ian

Perhaps not all Scots have your enlightened attitude to overt homosexuality?
Ian

Within 8 miles of me,Penistone and Wombwell.

She dumped you because you're obsessing about the fit of your ring?
Ian

BigDummy,been there,done that,now can I have a nice peaceful life and my health back? I lent it to somebody in the 80's and haven't seen it since.
Ian

Where is that,I want to go there?
Ian

Good luck,I had a head MRI a couple of months ago,and it's not very nice.
Glad the first surgery went OK,keep hanging in there.
Ian

Depends which statin,the doses aren't all the same.
ian

Sweet child,mine was 10.2 on first diagnosis,and now it's 6.6 I'm a happy bunny,but you're on the statins for life.
Ian
P.S. the medics like it to be less than 5 now

How much sag were you running?
Ian

Congratulations,now go to bed you silly boy.
Ian

Get the 410 and saw the excess off.
Ian

Hora,I had to read that twice LOL
Ian

Point Blank

Yes,but you're trained to go at home,and dogs are trained to go outdoors.
Ian

Only a couple of ligaments in R ankle and knee,but broke a couple of toes sparring at kung fu as a youth LOL.
Ian

Seeing as North Korea borders on China,where do you draw the line?.It may be possible to differentiate between Koreans and Chinese who belong to an ethnic group based 500 miles away,but from someone who lives 20 miles away?,almost certainly same ethnic group,alomost impossible to tell.China is a very big place.
Ian

Because we'd all cheat if we could?

Hi,I'm a nurse,I work in respiratory medicine,primary lung ancer is very unusual in non-smokers of your age.Agree with Drac that pericarditis is a likely suspect,but so is lymphoma,which is much more treatable than a lung primary.It is easy to say,but don't panic,wait for the CT,it may not be as bad as you fear.Good luck and all the best wishes,but please wait for the scan result.
