MKS Sylvan Track pedals, black outer body, silver inner. About 50 miles done then on a shelf for 3 months, few nicks to the black paintwork but otherwise great condition. Bought from BLB then added my own plastic toe caps and material straps (Off a Cannondale). Ideal, cheap pedal and retention ready to go....
No pics right now but will post this evening. I guess we all know what they look like anyway.
Pick up from Lewisham or I can drop off locally. Lewisham is 10 minutes out of London Bridge and I will run them to the station.
Dibs and pm........

Frank bought it for his sister who lives near Wandsworth, asked me to install it to achieve 'cinema surround sound from the telly, huh huh' (It was the 90's) so off I toddled. She is identical, I mean she looked like him in a dress. Best was his gold amex got referred so I call them up and they ask for more i.d., 'cept Frank ain't got none. It's the only time I've ever obtained an authority code for a purchase by saying "Look, he says he's Frank Bruno and he does look exactly like him, it can't be a coincidence can it?"

Top advice Mr Bump, I kind of figured all of the above might be important but it's great to see it written down for the scale of things to hit home ! It's a late afternoon affair and my loose sketch at the mo' is to have my farmer and his refrigerated van turn up close to the start point and have all non meat stuff on site from the morning. The kitchen is sadly tiny so I see most stuff if not all being prep'd outside. Working from vague experience of a hog roast catered event I'm aware of 2 pigs feeding 300 heads in one hour so my rose tinted presumption is some large outdoor grills knocking out 50 burgers every 10 minutes. I may have waiting staff but I'm not having anything sit down or formal, just wander around with some grub, park your bum if you want to.
My dream scenario is "Hello, I'm having this amount of food brought to this site at this time, I need you to cook it and present it this way on equipment you'll bring or can use in this kitchen"
Already one caterer has gotten back saying yes, but with a 'bring yer own bottle corkage' style additional charge. This isn't what I'm looking for as they're just replacing their lost stock margin with another levvy so I may as well not use my farmer.
Basically if you say 'wedding' to a caterer everything seems to be £10-£15 per head. Well, I can put a good quality locally sourced burger in a bun with fries for about £1.50 per gastro pub style plate so it makes absolute sense to use this method to drive cost down and ensure a controlled quality on what we provide.
However, I heed with great caution your comments on storage and liability. It seems this is going to be a lot of work but hopefully work that will pay dividends.
Many thanks, Rob. -
I'm nailing it next summer and after trying to lay hands on a place in Greenwich it soon became apparent that nearly every venue is owned by the same company with a set tier of costings to truly fuck you over and worse still, dictate what, when and how you and your guests do. Choose the menue 6 months in advance ? WTF ?
So I gets all tetchy and being northern just think fuck it I'll do the whole lot me sen. Got an incredible venue (Music hall so no extras for lights or PA) Profesional kitchen they will let you take over, I'm a dj (Aren't we all) so that's sorted, I know a couple of livestock farmers cum butchers so food's easy AND I get to shoot the cow. Bizarrely to make it work and fill the venue I've had to double the guests but because I'm sourcing everything from scratch myself it's coming in at exactly half what the Mafia who run SE10 demanded for a room and some sausage rolls.
Essentially it's like making a curry at home from individual ingrediants as oppose to paying £15 for a take away.
Of course I could fuck the whole thing up and find myself playing 5 hours of Frank Sidebottom to an empty,foodless room. Apart from an angry looking owl. -
Need an unsual service from decent caterers, getting married in Se London next summer and need labour to cook and serve pretty basic stuff to 200-250 guest but I'll be supplying the food. This is not just a cost issue but also to give me total control over the grub cause I'm obsessive about such matters. And I know livestock farmers so can go straight to the source. Anyone know of a service only outfit ?

Hi guys.
The chap in the flat downstairs from me has had his bike stolen - it's a 1980s Raleigh Competition racing bike in dark grey/light grey two-tone.
It was taken from the hallway of our building on Lordship Park, Hackney N16 over the weekend, possibly during the day time last Friday - builders were doing work on another flat in our house and they probably left the front door open. I don't think the bike was locked, or if it was, with a cable... Feel bad for him cos he's only lived here a couple of weeks. Luckily I ride to work otherwise mine could have been half-inched as well.
Distinguishing marks: black fizik bar tape, pouch behind saddle. Not sure of frame size but I would guess about 54cm, either 501 or 531 tubing, original Shimano parts.
I'll try to speak to him tonight so may edit with more info/pics if possible. Otherwise please drop me a PM if you spot it... naturally I'll be telling him to check out the usual place...
This photo is **NOT **the bike in question but it has the same paint job - I've done a quick photoshop on the saddle and bars to match the missing bike...

Cheers...

I urinated over Shaun Ryder, he just grunted "Oi ! Watch the La Coste". I was in The Hacienda toilets and hadn't noticed him next to me, my piss bounced of the disinfectantant block and went all over his jumper. It was around 'Step On' so he had his lovely floppy hair and and laddish swagger, 'cept all coverd in my pee. And he's tiny.

I'd quite happily do 8 years for this, plead diminished and all that. "The thing is M'lud, I find upspeak so violently abhorrent what with it being the incorrect way to talk and this stupid bitch used it ON EVERY SENTENCE I'm afraid I just tracked her down and killed her and everyone she knows. It was for the best, now send me to Belmarsh!"
