Morrisons are also doing the same / a very similar ceramic for the same price in bigger branches. I think the Aldi one is sold out

Seriously I thought I was going insane. The level said it was fine, my eyes (and wife) said it was completely wrong: https://youtu.be/rQ9984rfkDI

I put up some shelves using Gripits last weekend - probably overkill but I wanted to play it safe. Turns out the new spirit level I bought was very much not fucking level at all so I ended up with some massive holes in the wrong place in the plasterboard.
This weekend was spent drilling into the brick behind the plasterboard, fitting regular plugs then filling up the holes around some longer screws.

Have a look at Ikea Tradfri lights as a budget alternative to Hue. They both run the same (zigbee) protocol so Ikea bulbs with the latest firmware will connect to a Hue system.

I got mine from Angelot Flooring in Croydon after being reliably informed that they were the best price around. We were very happy with the service and the flooring, plus the guy in the shop gave my daughter his happy meal pokemon toy so she was happy too.

Yep, they handled the whole lot - from ripping out the old one and breaking up floor tiles to fitting, electrics, plumbing, plastering, tiling etc. We're in South but I'm pretty sure they'd be happy to cover North

I've just used these guys to do my kitchen and I'm very pleased with the standard of the finished job.

If anything I'd say you're playing it safe - 175 is 10 degrees over the minimum recommended temp so you could go down to 165 to avoid it drying out.

Great, thanks. I've done some crud scraping round the edges with a stanley knife but will get to work on the rest of it.

some road and a piece of wood may help

I can't work out if 'some road' is a typo or something I'm not familiar with?

Does anyone have any tips for getting this drain inspection cover up? I get the impression it hasn't been opened ever. There appear to be two screw heads in two corners but one is a bit mangled - do I just need to get these screws out then lift it?

It was mental going the other way last night as well. Traffic jammed up all the way over London Bridge.

I reckon I've tried most, Hot Box for me is the best. It was pretty busy when I went though, you might struggle to get a booking but they do have a nice basement bar for waiting.

If you're using apple stuff to stream music you can set up a rpi as an airplay receiver with very little trouble. There's some info here . I've not got any experience with Arduino so can't help much there

Just got very nearly taken out by a bus who realised too late there wasn't enough room to overtake me after all. Luckily I was able to stop before getting crushed but not before he hit my elbow then drove off like it was nothing. What the fuck is wrong with these people?

I've reported to TFL - is there anything else I should be doing?

i hope people are hungry on Saturday

6kg brisket

Where did you get your brisket from in the end? I'm keen to try one in my smoker but don't want to pay through the nose as I don't really know what I'm doing

I hope that didn't sound ungrateful! Thanks for looking into it Oliver.

I just don't fancy getting into another argument when I might be in the wrong!

I think I'll just go around in future

I stupidly didn't get the plate or any details of the cab - I was a bit caught up in the argument - so I won't be able to make a report. I know it's not a clear route so was prepared to at least explain to the guy my reasoning, but he wasn't interested.

Bothwell - I'd not noticed that cycle network sign before. I normally head straight up there under the bridge to Bethnal Green road.

Thanks Ed for checking the map - it's still not entirely clear though. I'm going to try and get in contact with the council for clarification.

Just had a taxi driver try to 'teach me a lesson' as I turned off Commercial Street onto Wheeler Street - he thought it would be better to shut me down and shout at me rather than just let me through. His point being that it's a one way street and I shouldn't be riding up it.
I can see his point but the road markings are ambiguous as there's a cycle turning lane just opposite the no entry sign. I have always assumed it's one way for motor vehicles but not cycles.

Am I wrong to be using this road every day?

Its a cover up! Hence the post.

It's a rubbish cover up, you can still clearly see the tick on her bum

I got called out on Tuesday.

I'd bought a load of new gear over the weekend and it was my first time riding clipless so I was being very careful, half expecting someone to get annoyed with my slow pulling away from traffic lights / general extra caution. Stopped at the first red light on my ride and I heard a voice shouting from behind. I prepared my apologies and excuses, but it turns he was only letting me know I'd left the massive fluorescent green price tag on my tights.

There is a new episode of Tattoo Age that's recently gone up though

Did you ever see your bike again?

Yeah I was incredibly lucky - I found it locked to some railings less than a mile away from my flat and was able to retrieve it.

No it was locked in a car park in his building in Aldgate East. Probably happened on Friday night.

My bike was nicked a few months ago from the car park in my building in Aldgate East. Tell your mate to check with building management to get any CCTV and contact the police. They investigated mine as a burglary rather than just theft.
I got a call a couple of weeks ago saying the two thieving bastards had been convicted.

I'm going back later, so will leave a note then. Was a bit drunk at the time.

I did exactly what you said - but had to remove the stem. Would be nice to get my front wheel back but that will need some cutting equipment
