Passing sentence, Judge Inman told the court that Connolly’s tweet – which was read 310,000 times – was “intended to incite serious violence”.

I assume he went on to say “Unlike you…  I’m free!”

Is it the spot where you bang your head against the wall after reading the political threads on STW?

Charge battery packs when in Uni, use one of these when at home.

Although offering money towards the heating bill, rather than buying a separate heater seems the best option all round

My black smock arrived about an hour ago, got it on now, and it’s excellent!

From the pics, it looks as though it’s pretty flappy, is that right?

Hammer frozen sugar pills into their carpet?

I generally find if I’m visiting a place and think “It’d be nice to get some drone shots here” there’s a “No Drones allowed” sign somewhere nearby.

A quick Google suggests the Forest of Dean doesn’t allow drones.

Mavic Mini will need a CAA license (a simple online test and a £10 fee).

I’d been waiting ages for an analogy.  It never rains, but it pours.

One of the best places to go mountain biking in Cambridge is Wandlebury Country Park. The 13.4 km circular trail is moderately challenging and takes three hours and 11 minutes

Over 3 hours to ride 8 and a bit miles!  That’s about 3mph, AKA walking pace…

Didn’t know the Exposure Redeye Micro was a thing.

How do you find battery life when it’s running?

It barely makes any difference to the run-times.

If you leave it plugged in when not using the joystick it glows faintly, but even that doesn’t seem to be much of a drain on the battery.

I know it’s not what was strictly asked for, but another vote for the Exposure Redeye Micro – I use mine in a helmet mounted Joystick.

Front door Key and back door key.

They’re always in one of many pockets across multiple pairs of shorts, jeans, jackets.  BUT WHICH ONE!!!

I see doris5000 suggests Yoga, for me it was Pilates that has helped

I’ve just seen that I posted similar at the top of page 2, but I was only 2 weeks in to doing Pilates at the time.  Interesting (to me) to see what I posted at the time :-)

I see doris5000 suggests Yoga, for me it was Pilates that has helped.  This time last year in my mid-late 40s I felt like a pensioner.  Most joints, especially my left knee, were hurting and I was hobbling around the place.  I’d given up running and was toying with giving up biking too.

I took a punt on a local Pilates class and within a month I was feeling human again.  It’s fixed the general aches and pains, I feel I’m much more in control of my joints (if that makes sense) and it’s even fixed an old shoulder injury.  It’s about a year since I started going (once a week) and it’s been the best thing I’ve done for general well-being.  I’m loving the bike and have even started gently running again.

I suspect years of not bothering to stretch after exercise, or just focusing on the main muscles had left my joints in a knackered state – Pilates is a long way from being a high intensity form of exercise, but it seems to have reawakened all the muscles and ligaments controlling everything.

Def worth giving it a try.

I’m hooked on this channel at the moment – it’s very easy “slow” TV.

He’s bought a ruined chateau and is rebuilding it – looking at the quantity of materials and machinery needed I’ve no idea where the money’s coming from, but it’s nice to watch.  There’s loads of “episodes”, but they’re mostly in 10min chunks so easy to watch here and there.

Water pressure

Gurgling/blocked drains

Check heating works (Rads and Water)

Broadband speed

Stick head in the loft (mould smell, damp rafters, insulation)

@burntembers correct :-)

@findusomally – Blink 182 – Enema of the State

Correct – I had no babies or dollar bills to hand :-D

The Obi Wan Kenobi series was poor, but there’s a fan made edit which somehow manages to make an enjoyable film out of it.  I’d recommend watching that rather than the series.

Ashoka is OK if you’ve already watched the Rebels cartoon, without that I’m not sure how much of it would make sense.

Mando is mostly great fun, Boba Fett isn’t.

Acolyte was fairly “meh” until the last couple of episodes, but has now been canned.

I didn’t especially enjoy Solo, but the general consensus seems to be “It’s not as bad as people said it was at the time”.

I only really know of him from this comedy show – well worth a listen if it’s passed you by

Unfortunately I’ve managed the double-whammy of having a tatty lawn AND not being on my bike enough

Didn’t take too long to guess :-)

As this is STW, I should have added that some means of easily carrying a bottle and 2 glasses over a lawn in such a poor state as that is definitely needed :-D

Another “live but in a studio” one, but I think this is excellent

Didn’t take too long to guess :-)

Made this at the weekend from an old bit of pallet, can you tell what it is?

we achieve a similar thing to the boxes and a custom rack by strapping one of this kind of thing to a standard bike rack (altura strada)

I’ve done similar with my Thule RideOn 3 rack (like the one below) a few times.  I flip the silver bars which the wheels rest on over so it’s more basket shaped then ratchet strap a couple of Lomo Drybag Holdalls to it.

2 spring to mind, a cute one and a darkly funny one.

* Driving along in winter and Mini V asked why the car had a snowflake lit up on the dash, I explained it was to let me know that there was a risk that the roads might be icy, she said “Will it show a picture of a rainbow if there’s going to be one?”

* Walking around Tesco, with Mini V in the trolley, trying to keep up with Mrs V who kept disappearing and reappearing at the ends of different aisles.  I said “Shall we chop mummy’s legs off?”, she exclaimed “NO!” then thought for a second and said “We haven’t got a knife.”

What is that tow hitch attachment you have there RNP

Looks like the Buzzrack P10

3rd best Alien film.  Good fun.  Best not to overthink the plot.

Worst part is Andy yelling “Get away from her you bitch” for no real reason – I thought the other nods to the franchise mostly made sense and weren’t overly in your face, but that just seemed to be there to get excitable Yanks whooping at the screen.

As a lifelong non-smoker, the current arrangement works for me (glad to see the back of indoor smoking).

I don’t like the stench of it, but it’s usually easy to get away from outside.

I think you’re still ahead of BOM :-D

Yes, on page one of this thread. ;-)

Doh!

At least I didn’t try to take credit for it :-D

I’ve pretty much decided that marriage is in fact just two people who’ve decided that a relationship is just shouting “what?” at each other from different rooms.

I recently saw it described as deciding to spend the rest of your life with someone stood in front of the cupboard or drawer that you want to use.

Only downside is when you take a turn and realise that you’ve turned into a headwind that isn’t going anywhere for the next 30 miles

Also known as a Suffolk hill climb :-)

A few people have mentioned toilet paper… If Mr Inbetween is anything to go by, it’s perhaps best that these things remain unspoken!

(Caution: may have naughty words)

Same here

I think they were expecting to encounter a right wing demonstration, if that’s what you mean. If matey boy hadn’t decided to step out and invite them to come and have a go if they thought they were hard enough, it’s likely that nothing would have happened.

That doesn’t make it OK for armed masked men to roam the streets – regardless of ethnicity/religion.
