i thought this forum was more hostile than it actually is for a couple of weeks after joining before i figured out that 'ftfy' does stand for fuck this (and) fuck you.

ftfy.

Is this resolved yet?

The traffic will most likely be mental in the evening rush hour, so I'd plan to leave early and get there before the mayhem.

Work well for me and don't interfere with the fold.

The Trout's not what it used to be. You're better off going a little further and to the White Hart at Wytham.

Every which way but loose

Back from the supermarket (living the dream) and just as I was looking at the meats, a nice lady came by and put 50%-off stickers on everything I was going to buy.

Victory is mine!

i remember experimenting with tinned rice pudding and a peach slice....

Quite. Even at a grand for the body, it'll give the M8/9 a run for their money.

Only APS-C, though. Boo!

I suspect it will be a fancy digital rangefinder like the X100

You might not have to.

...or are hippy.

..unless you work from home.

..because you can't slob about in your pants and eat pizza or other such quality recovery foods.

Any time not on the bike is recovery. #win

It doesn't count if you're in an office.

The continual pangs of guilt when not riding, preparing, or recovering.

Enqueue loves large collections.

It's really very good. And the scrolling works.

Islington is nice apart from the grim bits around Dalston.

Also, shouldn't Mergatron be along in a bit?

hearts this thread. I cooked and ate so much better as a cash-poor, time-rich student than I've ever done as when employed.

+1 to cheap cuts of meat. Shin makes awesome stews. Throw in a couple of bits of oxtail for gelatin and it'll go all nice and rich and goopy. Then pearl barley, veggies. and some dumplings on top. All the good stuff.

One thing that does make a difference is having enough people around. It's much cheaper to cook for 6 than 2. And it's miserable having the same thing day after day if you make too large a batch.

Very good media player just appeared: http://www.enqueueapp.com/

The iTunes scrolling bug alone is enough to make me want to try that.

Which makes me wonder, what constitutes a light? Could you get away with cycling along holding a candle? impractical I know

It used to be the case that they had to meet a BSI standard, but I think that was changed a few years ago to allow LED lights.

Every Michelmas term in Oxford, the police camp out on the same bridge going into town and fine everyone without lights. But the fine is waived if you buy some lights and show the receipt at the police station. That seems a lot more sensible, as it actually fixes the problem.

it hurts my bottom

..and this is meant to be about things you don't like.

The way that somehow the simple act of riding means that you're meant to be interested in what anyone else thinks about other people who rides bikes and how awful they are.

Very much enjoying this cover: http://pitchfork.com/news/44577-listen-the-antlers-cover-the-xx/

And have tickets for them in a couple of weeks. Time for some quality shoegazing.
