not worn it for a while, checking it is running fine, and it is.

any suggestions for headphones for me. I am getting on a bit, hearing has deteriorated and so real hifi might be wasted. Main use will be for podcasts and audio books when travelling around. I will listen to music of course, but clarity of the spoken word is most important. I don't get on with ear buds. £50-100 or so. I have looked at the Anker Soundcore ones, and Edifier, (I know these both have good customer service) but there are so many models....

Could you please post a pic/dimensions of any Tote bag you have made? The stem bag I have from you is ace and can feel a tote coming on.

that's helpful. It seems people are very respectful in this world and I don't want to commit any faux pas. I will book a slot, send some thoughts before and mention I expect to pay at least something for the initial meeting so they know I am not wasting their time.

Thanks for the replies. I will do some research and visit a couple of these people for an initial brief consultation, which seems to be free at most places. Regardless of what I do, is it the right thing to do to hand over a few quid, while I go home and think about it?

Yes, between Brighton and Hastings. Thank you for taking the trouble to reply. Your post about your partner made me smile. Bit of a stretch for me just yet.

recommendation for nervous first timer, East Sussex?

Not sure I will be here, but please put me on the list. I will be on my Roberts road fixed, which I had made for me years ago all because of this forum. I had not ridden fixed since I was 3, specced it right up from original hubjub, had no idea, and rode it back from their tiny shop to Pimlico. I did fall off on Clapham Common avoiding a mum and pram but threw myself under the bike so it was OK. The ride remains one of my finest achievements.

"holdwest" on ebay are a reliable source of 2nd hand Levis. They measure actual sizes, and I think do returns. If you research the model number for the fit you want it might be worth a try.

thank you and also rickster. I have the watch now. I think it is maybe a return as the box has been opened and it is set to BST+1, but that is fine and I have a head start. I will check out the set up link @rickster sent. As for the strap you mention, yes I would like to experiment and will and send you a pm. A friend is doing a MND charity walk this month, so I can either give her an extra few quid, or direct some £ to you or wherever you wish.
