It's at times like this I wish I hadn't broken my cameraphone, but yes there is a monster branflake on our mantlepiece.

Genius.

My girlfriend found a giant bran flake (Sainsbury's own brand, not basics though).

Dimensions ~5cm diameter. Currently has pride of place on our mantlepiece but I'm looking to sell.

I love the phrase "keen as mustard".

£2.50?

Per spoke?

That's excessive, even for supremacists.

Two single-speed "wrongversions" in the bicycle parking at St Pancras.

A Raleigh Equipe which had original chainwheels and a cassette, but no rear mech. One front brake. Locked with a stringlike Kryto-cable and a £1 padlock. Inexplicably had a helmet locked with it (safety first, I suppose...?). This received a friendly note explaining that SS really needs two brakes.

A Youngs 501 frame with a similar Frankenstein job on the rack next door. This one had a working rear gear with a downtube shifter but a single front chainring. Again, one and only one front brake. Already had a note wrapped around the brake cable (from the guy who installed it) saying "Good Luck!". Nuff said.

Watch out for these guys, presumably they're only able to stop by somersaulting over the bars of their extremely shitty bikes.

Nice climber / roped access bloke that I rode with from Archway to Muswell Hill. Not on here by his own admission though, so this is a singularly pointless post.

Here's a replacement:

You just joined it?

I've just read the thread in question. WTF.

Think the right decision was made - he turned from an idiot (I'll keep my pop-psychology to myself) to a genuine troll.

I know, but I'm emberassingly bad

I'm sorry you had to bear the burnt of that awful pun.

Yes, but it's tangled up in a big ball. Does it connect in with one of these long needles?

There's a joke about "flaming" in their somewhere

Bought this from Brick Lane market the other day, having trouble getting some of the apps to load.

IMO the pros outweigh the cons, too. I'm sympathetic to Muslim outrage about the war and the specific instances of persecution that the Muslim community has put up with over the last few years, but I think that yelling at soldiers is completely counter-productive. However, that doesn't mean it shouldn't be allowed. It's not illegal at the moment, just distasteful, and that's the way it should stay.

Let's talk about this some more, I find the whole P-M issue a bit depressing.

mike, don't take this the wrong way, but that is the shittest driving anecdote I have ever heard.

Actual and embarrassing lol.

do you think muslims should be allowed to incite hatred and preach violence against non-muslims,

No.

or protest against the return of british soldiers from war?

Yes.

(Although I would disagree with them doing it in that specific instance)

Can't we educate Paul-Michel in forum etiquette, and if he doesn't learn, we then do an about-face, and treat his posts as we would leperous clothing?

This thread is one banning too late, surely?

At the opening, Prince Charles said it was "entirely appropriate that we should continue to provide a sanctuary" for veteran soldiers.

Wow, controversial statement there, Charlie! It's for this level of insight that I enjoy financially supporting the royals, through both taxes and Duchy Original purchases.

On a good day I just shout "Learn to drive" and then think the rest of the sentence to myself.

Another good alternative to using profanity (popularised by my girlfriend when a black cab tried to run her off the road) is to blow a raspberry at the offender, like this: :P

Nice to see everyone tonight, hope y'all enjoyed the pizza. Hi from Bina too.

*And what haunts me, is that in all the faces of all the bears that Treadwell ever filmed, I discover no kinship, no understanding, no mercy. I see only the overwhelming indifference of nature. To me, there is no such thing as a secret world of the bears. And this blank stare speaks only of a half-bored interest in food.

That was the killer line for me. Definitely not a barrel of laughs, but I didn't think that Herzog was particularly unkind to Treadwell.

Will Self writes about Jade Goody and our attitude to death:

Interesting, although I disagree with a lot of it.

Yes !

Naked and genuine support for my position !

Seeds, I love you, if you ever think of splitting off with me and forming a radical fixed gear forum PM me.

Thank you very much for the kind offer, unfortunately I don't know how to ride a bike and I only come on here for the arguments.
