Do wot? How can one word mean both foot and hip?

The Chinese market is apparently why car grilles are getting bigger and flashier. Is that also why watches are getting bigger?

Regarding Rolly prices, I suppose low interest rates + pent up post-Covid shopping urges + boomer money from all those no mortage people = squillions to splash out. And maybe these people are not buying classic cars so much because of gas guzzler shame, so they spaff the Aston Martin budget on something which gives them a boasting opportunity when they wear it at the golf club. Eta: and of course the endless stream of stories about Rolex shortages and Paul Newmans and Chinese millionaires.

I should have sorted this for you, very sorry for the delay. My ME has been bad lately. It's in excellent condition, the ratchet and bearings feel mint, there's no wear on the spoke holes. Am doing some pics. And I'm trying to find the spindle - can't remember whether I still have it. Do you have a price in mind? The sold ones on ebay don't seem to be much of a guide, they're either knackered or brand new. This one is not far off new I reckon.

He tried to distract everyone with his unexpected Omicron restrictions, but it backfired. He's on very thin ice. A real politician would be panicking and trying to do deals. But he enjoys these moments of theatre. He thinks this is one of his Churchillian episodes. Part of his legacy. And rather a lot of voters have been buying into this shite since the Brexit referendum campaign. They're cunts who aspire to a leased Range Rover, but what are they going to do now? Give him another chance, or demand Truss or Dishy Rishy?

The public do have a say because their opinion is expressed in the polls. MPs won't even consider another leader unless the public express their wishes. But if he polls disastrously, the mechanism for removing him relies on him complying. He doesn't behave like a professional politician and he's not loyal to the Tory party, or anyone else for that matter. This is new territory, never seen before in the UK. I reckon he'd argue that it's an artificially created blip and refuse to go. If he's seen to stand up to his internal challengers he might even get a big popularity bounce. The only way to force him out would be for lots of Tories to oppose him in a vote of no confidence. But they just wouldn't do it. It would be so destructive that it could let Starmer in.

I think he's pretty safe. The chattering classes are enjoying getting stuck into him, but not many of the public really want him replaced by Sunak or Gove because of a couple of parties. He won't resign or kowtow to the 1922 committee. He'll just tough it out.

In which case Rolex values ought to drop because of Bitcoin

Lot 3 has got me wanting a Chinese one. They used to be plagued by a deeply sunken date, but the so-called PPF factory one looks not too terrible. Trigger warning: link to a rep dealer coming up. https://trustytimewatch.io/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=39_199&products_id=23237

Did they teach you how to sharpen a curved blade? The curved sections on my bayonets have defeated me. I just cannot get them remotely sharp.

Please.

Fighter jets get mentioned three times. If only Telegraph writers had access to Wikipedia.

So you reckon this is an official, factory lash-up?

There are no rational answers. It's just Covid chaos. Everything is fucked. I got a parcel from the US. Or rather I didn't. The Post Office said they tried to deliver it twice, but they didn't leave a card. So it sat in a delivery office for a while. Then they sent it back to the US. Now I have to pay to get it sent again.

This tells you what a CSP is and how to find your nearest one. It's probably at your local delivery office. https://personal.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/138/~/where-can-i-post-my-letter%2Fparcel%3F

Because of Covid chaos I wouldn't believe a word of that web page - I'd go to a Post Office and speak to a human and get receipts for every damn thing.

Reminds me of the turquoise Oyster https://www.rolex.com/watches/oyster-perpetual/m124300-0006.html

The Swapfiets tyres are Vittoria Adventure Tech. The blue ones aren't available yet. Perhaps delayed by Covid? The smallest ones are 32mm. https://www.vittoria.com/ww/en/tyres/city-hybrid/adventure-tech

The TdF ones for Jumbo-Visma were Vittoria Corsa G 2.0, but they've only been sold to the public in black. No word on blue ones.

If you want an all-blue road tyre I think Kenda cheapies might be your only option

If blue sidewalls with black tread are to your taste there are various NOS ones on ebay, from Michelin and others

I would try Gorilla All Conditions Sealant. https://uk.gorillaglue.com/gorilla-all-conditions-sealant-clear/ Does all kinds of things. I'd also try a hot melt glue gun. There are various glue sticks available, including some specialist industrial ones which might adhere to your dashboard.

Do it. She might kill people, and you can prevent it. Her punishment will be light, compared to the suffering of people who have to go on a ventilator, whether they survive or not.

Sounds fun, but you'd need an HGV licence wouldn't you? Plus too wide and high for a lot of lanes, parking places, camp sites etc. Plus huge taxation cos of the emissions?

You've been watching that advert with all the little poos settling in the curtains.

There's a logic to this. It's about packing the most into your break. It's the same as reading the paper on the crapper. Relax in your private space and enjoy some me time. It's why we keep comics next to the bog at home. I often relax with Viz and a cup of tea when having a crap. If I have a colourful event, so what? My own stink doesn't bother me.

People at sea, especially those in smaller, more vulnerable boats, instinctively club together to save each other from a shared danger. If someone else is in the water you drop everything to help them, as if they were your own crew. Obstructing a lifeboat is like murdering your friends. It's unthinkable.

I love window shopping for unusual watches. What are some good sites? I quite like watchguru.com and 70s-watches.com. And trustytimewatch.io for fakes.

Not me. I might get there tomorrow.
