    Use a fillet of premixed tarmac repair compound, should only take a couple of buckets for that length, and then dig it up straight afterwards.

    I was Googling the term ‘look at me’, as I was after a suitable image to infer imply someone was an attention whore, when the first link returned was this:

    A fork and a spoon, It’d be great for camping or eating during lightweight races, you could call it a Foon

    Thanks for all he replies.

    I asked a couple of friends about just this issue last night, one of them recommended a free to download programme called Audacity, is it any good? There appears to be a lack on consensus here 😀 😉

    2 seconds in, and I already want to hit him with a bit of 2×4.

    Are you American?

    In this country it’s called 4×2 😉

    I’d be interested in the results from Bettablast too, I’m not far from Darlo and want to get my frame stripped & powdercoated in the next couple of months.

    I’m over in Dublin for a couple of nights a fortnight and generally end up booked in to the Jury’s Inn at Christchurch.

    It’s fine, clean and close to the city centre.

    Don’t eat in for anything other than breakfast though…

    Excellent idea, It hadn’t occurred to be to ask them about it.

    (Not being sarcastic, genuinely hadn’t though of it)

    Guide dogs all have a PooCrawler (c) installed.

    It’s a small device fitted inside the dog’s back passage that removes any need for the owner to “pick up” after the animal.

    The PooCrawler uses the power obtained from the small amount of calories remaining in the poo via combustion of the poo to run a small pair of tracks that slowly propel it further inside the dog at the same speed as the dog’s passage tries to expel it. Thus meaning it’s retained in a stationary position inside the animal without any external (or internal) fixings.

    The only waste product is a small amount of water that it absorbed by the dog’s lower rectum (this has the side effect that it reduces the dog’s need to drink water).

    They’re entirely painless to the dog.

    Mrs Wombat is (in aid of Parkinsons UK)

    I said after my 6th (in 2006) that I’d not do another one but I have a feeling that the atmosphere on Sunday may see me entering another…

    I have been known to get the leatherman out on holiday and straighten and level all the doors in a kitchen because the unevenness of it all was starting to get to me.
    Oh, and rearranging the fridge door so all the heavier new bottles/pints of milk are at the hinge side of the door and the part used ones are at the leading edge as it is kinder to the hinges.

    I do both of these 😳

    and people ask “is it for charity?”

    It’s as though nobody else gets of their backsides for the fun of it 😉

    Where was it whilst you were running?

    It was in my pocket, suppose that won’t have helped.

    Thanks for the info chaps, it’s good to know that it wasn’t just me 🙂

    I’ll look at altering the settings to make it more accurate.

    Are the wrist mounted ones more accurate or do they (as I suspect) use the same tech as the Edge?

    Twerking was in fact first referenced in Dire Straits’ 1985 single “Money For Nothing” in which Mark Knopfler sings… “That aint twerking, that’s the way you do it…”

    Probably….

    Do they act differently if it’s a “Little Princess On Board”?

    Presumably these are standard with all large French Mercedes….

    To inform the emergency services that they need to look for a baby in the car when they’re cutting people out of a wreckage after an accident

    This only applies if they remove the sticker when the child leaves the car 😉

    They are in fact an extremely primitive way to show your reproductive prowess to other road users, a far more subtle approach is to drive a people carrier…nothing says “mine works perfectly” like needing a vehicle with seats for 6 passengers 😉

    My daughter’s had one for a couple of years, and it’s bee faultless.

    It’s not been used for anything more taxing than the blue/green runs at Dalby but it’s required virtually no maintenance and still looks good.

    On the basis of my experience I’m currently looking at getting one for my son for Christmas.

    IMO you’ll really struggle to beat it as a first full sized bike.

    Soup works well on a cold winter ride providing you can prevent the croutons clogging the tube 😉

    Ton – those panniers look very good and if I already had a rack on any one of my bikes I’d go for a set. I know I could get a rack but it looks to me as though a trailer might be more flexible for me (plus I intend to tow/fit it using an old steel road bike and am a bit concerned about putting that much weight on the rear wheel with panniers).

    Still undecided though…

    The car park in question is the short stay one at LABIA (Leeds And Bradford International Airport) so it’s all open air but with a height restriction barrier at the entrance. My guess is that the nice folks at LABIA must be going with tiggs121’s second & third suggestion…

    Keep campervan owners like me (annoying)out?
    Or is it to prevent some of these “travelling people” infecting the place?

    Although this

    Approach the barrier really fast, then brake hard (which will lower the front of the car) as you go through, when you’re half way through accelerate really hard to make the back-end squat down. Might take a couple of practice goes to get perfect, so have some spare roof boxes to hand.

    is the favourite option so far….

    Have just fitted the roofbox in preparation for the weekend so CBA removing it unless it’s essential.

    I’m reasoning that there’s sure to be a degree of leeway with the height of the barrier, I’ve seen Range Rovers parked in there before and Google tells me they’re a touch over 1.9m high

    Is this really a weakness? (providing it’s not in work time….) 😈
