Also if you're down the rabbit hole you probably already know, but amazingribs.com has some very informative reviews of almost every BBQ available.

I also have a Kamado Joe. TBH I use the drum more, but that's mainly because of the quantity it can hold, I can do a whole pork butt and a whole brisket in the drum, but struggle to fit just one of either into the KJ. For smaller cooks though it's fantastic, it holds temperature for hours with no attention needed. Also there are guys in the US building all kinds of crazy accessories to make everything easier. I'm desperate to get one of these one day.

I reckon PBC is a good shout. I have a DIY drum cooker that I use loads and love, but if you can't be arsed with the drilling then this seems like the next best thing. Especially if you want it to look nice, after a few years my smoker looks shit. I've read some really good reviews of the PBC.

That said, if you change your mind I know a guy in SE who sells unlined drums for £12 (last time I checked). The actual effort involved in the DIY route is tiny, you could probably complete it in an afternoon.

When I bought my ex LA flat in a Southwark block my solicitor revealed the fact that it was due major works which would cost me an extra £10k.

I have a concealed shower mixer that has sprung a small leak. According to this video
it looks like something I should reasonably be able to replace myself? The problem is that where the guy in the video uses a hex key to remove the grub screw holding the tap but mine do not look anything like a hex head screw. They look like there’s no head at all. Do these look like they’ve been rounded off or am I missing something? Both flow and temp screws look like this.

Alternatively could carry on along Copeland Rd > Consort Rd > High Street > Hill Street and rejoin the canal path after Whitten Timber. That's the first part of my commute and is generally pretty quiet until Peckham High Street

Thanks, that could have been a missed opportunity.

I used farewill.com for my will. Easy and cheap, would recommend. When I did mine it was pretty easy to find a discount code as well which made it even cheaper.

I love mine, I've not used it as much as I'd hoped but I think that will change next year when the weather eventually warms up a bit. My daughter loves it too, and it's great that there's enough luggage capacity to easily take her scooter and even a (collapsed) buggy strapped to the back as well.

I'm pretty keen to get one of their front racks but not so keen to pay full price for it, we'll see.

There's a bargain Mondo on Gumtree right now if anyone's looking. Here

This seems like one that might be likely to get spotted as it's quite distinctive, but there are a few of them about - is there anything non-standard about yours?

Weird how all the replies are about motorised rickshaws when I don't think I've seen a single one. Is this the latest taxi drivers moaning point?

We went out for our first ride on the Mundo today. I was expecting ‘faster, faster’ but I got ‘please be careful/don’t fall off the road/ don’t go too fast daddy.’ I guess it’s good to know she’s careful at least

I would quite like to retain use of the seatpost as it's a bit of a weird size. Annoyingly it's only a couple of cm off the ideal height for me. If there's no luck with the slide hammer, I'm ready to get destructive, plus it's always nice to own unusual toys, erm- tools.

Worth a shot! Not to worry, thanks for getting back to me. I had just seen the same video and got excited. I can see there are a few of the same hammer on ebay so I'll just stump up the extra tenner.

I know this is a serious dredge, but by any chance do you still have this and want to shift it?

yeah that's the one. I picked up a yepp maxi off ebay yesterday so will get that fitted and get cruising asap

Thanks to @dt for the inspiration, I picked this up on Friday to start my dad-bike project

That’s great thanks, I’m in Peckham so that’s ideal, will drop him a line in the morning.

Can anyone recommend a plumber in SE to supply and fit a hot water pump please? Mine is on its last legs and keeps revving up for no reason scaring the shit out of me.

I'm considering picking up an old royal mail Pashley to use as a kidmobile, can anyone think of any reasons they might not be suitable?

My thinking is that they're pretty cheap to pick up and can carry a lot of weight, so I could potentially come up with some kind of bench seat on the rear rack when the little one grows out of a child seat.

I'd chip in to get her the best lasagne money can buy if she's not up for any more cycling

This is horrific to read, I can't imagine how you and family must be feeling. I hope her recovery is as smooth as possible.

I've recently had an Ikea Almaren kitchen tap installed and I can't seem to find any garden hose connectors that will fit it. I'm after something like this but the internal thread seems to be 18.5 mm and this one is 24mm. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? If not I guess I will grab something like this one.

Clas Ohlson do one that's very similar to the WGA and it's a close enough size that I think you can even fit in a chimney starter if you cut the grate in half.
