Wait that's a different bike... whoops

quite right

Cheers all - I'll keep my eyes peeled online and will check Brick Lane.

The wall anchor wasn't great, we've only just moved in and was waiting until payday to order a sold secure gold one. Proof your locks are only as good as their weakest point. Good luck to them getting the Fahg off though...

They'll have no trouble once they are back at their lair with power tools. Even with a hand saw a fahg won't last long...

I'm seriously thinking GPS + retrieval is the only real strategy if I ever own anything precious - no security is infallible :(

you don't ride it like that... pics or it didn't happen

pe-do

Fuck me. No-one can say you didn't do you best on security... wankers.

I'll keep an eye out for any shifty shitheads. They could well try to sell your CB for all of pennies on Brick Lane. For some reason I've found that "swanky" branded ones like the cube tend to find themselves on gumtree, I think you can get some more cash by meeting up with a specific buyer.

It's not the worst or most life threatening thing I've seen, but it is a close pass and it is very worrying that the old lady and the professional driver honestly seem to believe that the right place for cyclists is a 30cm strip in the gutter and asking for any more is tantamount to road terrorism.

I probably wouldn't have stopped and had an argument but don't think he's in the wrong here..

SOLD to the man with a new bianchi and a beard

Thanks everyone!

Sorry guys I would rather not post it - this price is collected/meet somewhere convenient - otherwise I could just post it back to ribble for a refund (or keep it?)

Gotta catch 'em all

Any idea what it would be to post? Or - do you ever work/happen to be further central, east?

Some loan words change over time (just consider all the old loan words in English which were taken from Indian languages),

This of course is a much different situation since you're using none of the original spelling (due to a totally different script), and once you've transliterated it it's ripe for any kind of bastardisation.

pretentious wankers

At least they're self-aware pretentious wankers.

I'm gonna take it.

we must have written our posts simultaneously.

must be the positive vibes

In fairness garden trellis is hardly known for its fine engineering tolerances..

this is lush and if I weren't a penniless student I'll be all over it like a diffuse maculopapular rash...

hope it sells!

been here before, but still bleaarrruggghhh

but so heavies!

The Economist style guide is popular as well, and they have less of a poor reputation for proofreading errors... but there are aspects of both I don't like.

So the police, or more likely some private contractor, are profiting from crime/incompetence...

typical.

However this process can go too far: -

How long established or how commonly used does a loanword have to get before one drops original "foreign" spelling?

These sorts of questions are an issue since we haven't followed the French in establishing an official "boss of deciding how everyone else should speak".

You rarely see the accent circumflex in role, or deja vu, for example. Nor, in most cases, the acute in derailleur.
