right of way eh? II assumed the explaintion you gave him was that the peds have the right of way, and cars only have the privilege to be on the road?

Unfortunately, my explanation was more of a rant but I think he got the message. If not he can always ask the person on the other end of his phone to explain it to him again :)

YouTube- Whistle While You Work - Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

I was in Nelson

Today's close call was with some numpty who overtook me without having anywhere to go (parked cars and oncoming traffic) so he gets past me and slams his brake straight on causing a very hairy heavy braking moment for me on a wet road. I also spotted he was on his mobile as he went past me.

I caught up with him a couple of streets later where he had finally pulled over to finish his phone call and tapped on his side window which he dutifuly wound down. I explained how he had nearly had me off my bike with his careless driving adding how talking on the phone had obviously not helped. The loser tried to tell me he had right of way as he was a car driver. WAC! I explained the error of his ways loudly enough for the person on the other end of the phone to know their friend was a prize tosser. Hopefully he'll be a bit more careful next time but perhaps I should just take him out with my van as that obviously has much more right of way over his old Nissan.

No bike related pressies for me, just the usual mix of clothes and smelly stuff and a rather nice watch.

My favourite of all the presents so far has to be these... \/

Some of these

They are surely worthy of a forum ride out to somewhere very dark on a windless evening to set them free?

"Can't skid, won't skid"

"London FGSS is for grown ups too"

"PUS" (Pukes on skidder)

Just some early suggestions for the 2010 range of lfgss tee's ;)

Again echoing everyone's support and best wishes Paul and my utmost respect to those supporting you on what seems a minute by minute basis. You know who you are, give yourselves a big pat on the back folks.

My understanding of the regs is that installing a new cooker outlet / radial circuit falls under part p and so requires a qualified sparky but connecting a cooker to an existing cooker terminal outlet does not and any TheBrick(Tommy), Dick or Harry can wire it in.

You should have laid down in the gutter and feigned whiplash injury like 95% of other road users who get hit from behind (the other 5% really have whiplash)

It could of course be fucks' as there may have been more than one of them.....

Finished.

Pics tomorrow.
When I have thawed out.

We are the mainland. I also have a boat.

Thanks to Cambot's avatar for the inspiration

Alcohol Free Day ffs!

AFD + Furious Fisting Session?

it snows harder in a lot of countries, and people are shat off that an hour's snow causes the whole country to go into a crisis. it happens every year - they need to learn to deal with it

That's the problem - it does snow more in other countries so they have little choice in the matter other than to deal with it. It snows so infrequently here the investment in equipment to deal with it effectively would likely be unjustifiable.

The collection point was a mess. Saw lots of people just sitting around the walls looking pretty down. Carry on only ftw.

Did you spot my daughter? She was the one texting continuously for nearly 5 hours. I was sat outside drinking coffee and replying to text messages.

I got stuck at Gatwick last night doing a pickup. Flight landed at 10.30pm. Bags appeared at 3.30am.

How about one of these babies?

Not only can you steal the bike but you can thieve the air out of it's tyres to do so!

I hit 104kph on a nice wide and very steep ski slope.... shat my pants - the wonders of gps!

In reality you were going much faster as the gps would have been measuring your speed as if you were moving on a flat surface but you were going downhill so would have been covering much more ground, this of course depending on the degree of slope as a quick sketch of a triangle would prove, thus your pants should have been well and truely shat in...... Tommy! Damn, there's never a mathematician when you need one..... and breathe

I suspect they would have to prove it was you that removed the clamp though and not ..... Anglegrinderman!

That was Tynan.

I figured so. The shit smeared all over the wheels was a dead giveaway.

Beware of buying anything from people off this forum.

I agreed to buy a set of wheels last week and the seller wanted to deliver them to me last Saturday. I told him we would be out so he snuck round, burglarised me, raped my budgie and shit in my bed.

On the plus side he did leave the wheels.

Pyjamarama was the first record I ever bought - that's vinyl and 45 rpm for you youngsters

I once shared a lift with Paul Gambaccini, he's delightfully bent
