Yeah, I was there as staff and haven't seen the site that wet day one in the best part of 15 years - got lucky the weekend the weather wasn't actually too bad. Saw LCD Soundsystem be very impressive Sunday night.

Excited about new red dead rumours - think I heard there was a map leaked or something. Maybe they'll show it at E3?(!)

Overwatch is currently making me regret ignoring FPS for the longest time, seems really fun despite me being completely useless. Maining Reaper for the minute. Nice to see it works so well on a fairly modest PC too (R9 380 and an ancient i5 - Q3 '09 apparently).

Watched a bit on Twitch this evening - looks fun!

Sadly that's me. Want to be optimistic that things are going to get better with the new expansion, but I'm pretty dubious. Still pre-ordered packs and have gold for another 50 or so...

That bit that heads south towards Old Kent Road looks like a bit of a nightmare - really narrow with high curbs either side.

Is there a way the velo orange one would mount like that too with addition of a suitable mounting part?

Pelago looks like a good shout - thanks! I saw the Minoura one before, is it actually any good? Just didn't like the look of it.

Can anyone recommend a porteur rack that will fit without crown braze ons on the fork (I have the Croix de Fer with the carbon fork)? I was looking at the Soma one but can't find it for sale anywhere.

Tried some Tricker's Derby shoes on earlier, very nice but way to wide for my feet - any recommendations for others I might try that don't come up so roomy?

New Cross to Clapham Junction was essentially one long puddle this morning, going to have to rethink my footwear options.

Deeply aggrieved drivers of peckham out in force as usual.

Those can't be national numbers, a lot of journeys are made by bicycle in the Netherlands, but no way is it a 40% modal share - more like 25% nationally.

Some people just won't be told...

I'll give a shout to Pocket Casts which I think is a couple of quid. It's possible the free options have got better, but I went through a bunch of them and found them all annoying for one reason or another before giving Pocket Casts a go and it does everything really well: syncs across different devices, nice UI, podcast search works really well, discover page is useful for when I want something new - I've just found it pretty much niggle free and given the amount of use I've got out of it I don't regret (or think about) having paid for it at all.

Periodic de-lurking time. Got this from Xam at Seven Doors yesterday:

@clockwork_killa that's so great. I'm going to try sort out touch ups with Xam pretty soon and hopefully try figure something with Claudia de Sabe and Jondix for my next couple.

I really like Pocket Casts, I think it's a couple of quid but it's excellent. Syncs across devices too.

Yes I hope that I don't have to wait so much to have my other calf done! So far Xam's tattoo is my favourite. I never expected something like this. I also loved Family business as they treat you nicely and don't have this frith st attitude

After I had my arm tattooed by him, Xam said I could come back pretty much whenever and wouldn't have to wait all that long - it'd be kind of ridiculous otherwise. Same has been true with Valerie Vargas and seems to be how most of the people with long lists work.

That tattoo is great Tika!

Next time I'm in London I'm going to pop into 7 Doors - wanted to get tattooed by Claudia de Sabe and Jondix for ages and it's been a while since my last one...

I got one of my knees tattooed, I think it's a bit more than two years ago now. That's not long, but it's healed in well and doesn't look like it's going anywhere.

Swelling was pretty bad for a few days but not unbearable, didn't stop me getting on with things really from what I remember.

Nexus 4s are starting to get KitKat updates apparently - no sign of it on mine yet though.

I think that the magnet is on the charger for that, but I could be wrong. I can say that the only magnetic part, when playing about with a paper clip, was the circular area around the lens, so not sure it'd be any good for charging.

nah, the phones have to have magnets in them too for the base to hold them properly.

Does anyone here know how long you have to wait to get tattooed by Claudia de Sabe at Black Garden? Hopefully going to book in with Vargas or Stefano at Frith for December depending on how dates work, then I think I'd like to go to de Sabe if it's not going to be a year or so (will probably put my name down anyway)...

Chicken standing on Boris.

So it would seem that the over sized ring around the Nexus 5 lens has a purpose. It's magnetic. It would appear to be for those smartphone lenses that attach via magnets.

The new nexus wireless charger holds phones in place with magnets, seems like the more likely reason for it being magnetic to me...

Does anyone have an Aviate launcher invite going spare by any chance?

I have 5, just need an email address and I can send one over.
