£10?

Coolscan IV no good?

Yeah, they're alright but not as good as the 9000. I started scanning on an IV but when they got a 9000 into the studio I ended up rescanning everything I'd done on the IV as the 9000's scans were so much better.

They have either a Hasselblad or Imacon flextight scanner that I saw at a tour of digitalab so I imagine the scans would be pretty good, although I haven't actually had any done by them. What kind of scanner do you use nefarious?

I use a Nikon coolscan 9000 that they've got in my studio. For 35mm film they just use a Coolscan IV last time I checked, it's the reason I never bothered getting scans from them.

have you ever gotten scans from digitalab?

Nope. Always seemed expensive - I know they've recently changed their prices though. Also not much point paying when I've got access to a really nice slide scanner.

A load of places for c41 includings jessops and other cheapo 1hr places but mainly digitalab as they do B&W, e6 and c41. I also then scan the negs myself.

Nope.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree here. It's not my cup of tea but it's hardly offensive - it lacks the necessary retardation to be anti in my book.

It's a chain away from being a perfectly alright bike - hardly antiporn.

Riding when drunk is bar far one of the stupidest things I do. Sometimes I really wonder how I've not died on the way home.

Er, Todd. I'm pretty sure Phil is taking the piss as there are a few of the Newcastle riders who butcher frames into polo bikes rather than splash out big bucks and F34R has just bought a lo-pro to "alter" into a polo bike.

Just saying, coolstorybro.jpg etc.

I wouldn't mind the 650c for my low pro - don't have any use for a 700c with a freewheel though. . .

I'm sorry, but that's fucking hilarious.

I had the same problem, Digger. The jeans in question are now just on the verge of being wearable - from tight round the waist to 3-4 inches of slack taken in by a belt. I'm too attached to them to let them go so they get worn anyway - something weirdly satisfying about wearing proper nice denim as workwear.

Also, just purchased this:

Carhartt State Coat.
Heavy Japanese denim (admittedly non selvedge but still very nice) unwashed. First proper denim jacket and I'm already in love!

Also, does anyone know what the whole "Union" and "Union Made" thing is about?

So I'm feeling all cool and shit, new jacket, nice new slick back haircut and freshly trimmed beard after a trip to the barber's - then it hits me: I look like fucking Teen Wolf. FML.

isn't it where the grips have been removed? (humbug)

Exactly. If anything that's the bit that should be more rusty due to perspiration from the hands.

exactly.

plus you can put on a cog tighter with rotafixing

Chainwhip+extension bar that is bigger than the radius of the wheel will give you more leverage. Rotafixing can also reduce the life of/damage a chain. It's a useful trick but chainwhip every time where possible IMO. And Even without an extension bar, I've never had any trouble getting a cog on/off with a decent chainwhip as it is.

your such a bike snob its ridiculous

And?
I much prefer a small but nice collection of images rather than massive splurges of "meh", too.

It's like the rat bikes thread, it was good for a while but now it's mostly shite.

Do you develop your own?

Nope - but I do scan the negs myself.

I shoot quite a lot of film and I've shot a lot of crap on the XA2 as well, I really want the extra control that you can get on an XA though - just not seen one for the right price.

That looks like geordieland pet!

Wey aye, et is!

Metrolandman, that's class!

XA2, expired fuji 800.

I very much like this:

How jovial.

Behind the handlebar on the tops, operated by the forearms when he sits up to go into a corner.

Not sure if serious. . .
Photo?!

Where are the brake levers?!
