Currently 75.5kg

Aiming for 72.0kg.

Trying to get there without cutting anything out because that won't be sustainable for me. I am hoping the key is finally feeling better (feels like one thing after another, after covid in October 22) and simply being able to train more.

Let's be honest; some of these cranks need increased surveillance.

Ah I see! Thanks.

(still learning)

They go all the way home, with pushing, so no worries there.

Slaves of a globalist regime, is that what he says?

What does he even mean? How does having a pub and grocery store within 15mins walk make anyone a slave of anything?

Too confusing for me, but I am very happy for him to live his life thinking he's being denied something.

Finally got around to having a go at unsticking a sticky piston, yesterday.

GRX800, front.

I cleaned both pistons thoroughly - three times. Worked them nearly all the way out, individually and cleaned with brake cleaner and then "lubricated" with a cotton bud of mineral oil.

Wheel back in, calliper loosened off, pads back in. Calliper centred, brake applied a few times to grab the disc and then tightened the calliper fixings.

It's better, but still not perfect. One piston still refuses to draw all the way back.

Am I missing a trick? These brakes are almost new so I am guessing a defect is unlikely.

I'd argue that knackered, 15yr old Sprinter van idling outside my house is imposing on my freedom of choice, if we're going that route.

But I don't; I just shut the window.

I agree it's wrong to say there are no disadvantages, but people really need forge new ways of doing things; take some personal responsibility.

Or stand on the street complaining to anyone who'll listen, putting their fate in the hands of others.

No patience for it, especially when it spills over into the ridiculous conspiracies that caused me to start this thread.

Based on...

I used to get annoyed by these types, but now I just let them make their own bed to lay in. I’m over trying to help and educate.

What’s being removed?

I don’t really know if this has much stamina for its own thread, but 15min cities are being discussed everywhere at the moment. As far as I understand, it’s a simple idea that one can leave their front door and walk/cycle 15mins to shops, restaurants and amenities.

I.e. how most European cities work, give or take 5mins.

Do I have that right?

If I do have that right - beyond people misunderstand everything - why do a lot of people view this idea as an infringement of their freedom, privacy and rights? I saw a video of a bloke being interviewed who thought it meant he wouldn’t be able to leave the city or at least would be restricted in doing so.

Am I missing something or are these just the same people who believed what was written on the big red bus?

Absolutely the best type of fishing. They can keep their Method feeders and bait boats!

Reluctantly middle class, here. Am I not allowed to enjoy a haul from Lidl? XD

We used to live in ex-LA block of six. We were first floor (with ground below and second above). Our neighbour in the other first floor flat was a weed smoker (terrible, noisy waster of a neighbour as it happens - full package).

We could smell it in our kitchen, even with all windows closed, so I can only think it was somehow coming through the shared brickwork.

Anything you do to block the fireplaces will need to be well sealed - don’t be surprised if you can still smell it.

Yeh I think mine are shelved now. We live and learn.

Sounds like you’ve probably cracked it, @Sparky

Minor Threat: Just a band

Continue doing all your post stuff, online?

And pub.

Incredible that’s something you can buy.

Shrug to both

The Camden Town branch (top of Parkway) can be seen from space, thanks to all the lights and TVs they leave on 24/7.

I draw your attention to the post by @Pifko

I've stopped wearing my NB trainers because they're clearly dad trainers, after seeing Chiles wear them on House of Games.

He was a miserable cunt all week, on that as well.

Eurgh, totally this.

She's not your fucking nonna; her gran was born in Queens.
