You're an absolute legend, as ever! I will give re-application a try over the weekend, using the method you've explained. If not, yeah, I'll try the Bondaweb.

That is a very kind offer, but moved out of London a few years back, so while I used to be very close indeed to your studio in Deptford, I'm now a couple of hundred miles away.

Oh brilliant, thank you for the starting point! I think Wundaweb looks not quite perf ct as it doesn't stretch, but the same company make similar products that do stretch, such as https://www.vlieseline.com/Products/Tapes/Seam%20Tape%20flexible

Not sure this is the right sub-forum, definitely more on the"fixin" side of things...

I have a couple of rapha long sleeve pro team jerseys that are very old and I've had great use out of that fit me very well. Much better than the latest pro team jersey I bought from them last summer. They're in pretty good condition apart from some of the seams at the front of the jersey are starting to come undone. I know that rapha do a repair service, but one of these is probably about 7 years old, so I feel that asking them to repair for free would be taking the Mickey. However, I would like to prolong the life of them if possible.

I'm struggling to know what this type of seam is even called to Google repair techniques and materials. They're folded over and then bonded somehow, and it's the bonding that is coming undone. I had assumed it was called a bonded seam, but nope, it seems that's a very different thing on a rain proof garment.

Anyone able to offer any advice on how I could get this fixed, or fix myself? Potentially a question for someone like @Chopsicle?

So weird ... Like an alien who is trying to imagine what a human might say they do with their young children

There's a guest bedroom always set up...

(you'd just have to put up with a baby waking several times a night at the minute, but hopefully that might improve soon)

Currently on 36 I think. Come visit and you could pick off quite a few very quickly in the Peak District ;)

You could also pick up 100 climbs of SE England and try and pick some of them up. Lots in Kent you'll have already done, and plenty more you could do in a l ride from London or with a quick train journey out.

I was thinking "well better to do pay cuts than mass layoffs like all the other tech companies" but the article suggests that they also will be making layoffs. They'll end up with their best people wanting be laid off so they can get the payout and then go get a better paid job elsewhere. It's such a bad decision...

Dibs on the Polar if you're willing to post at my expense, plus a little extra for the hassle? Will send a DM.

Would never buy anything CDA. Fridge freezer from them and the freezer stopped working in warranty. CDA said they no longer made the part needed to fix. Their genuine offer to me to make it right was 40% off a brand new one.

I was able to get staff discount on this one. Amazon currently has them in the colour "sage" at a good price - £287, and it looks like every so often they come up on warehouse deals. I often use the Keepa site for price tracking and sending notifications once something like this hits a certain price on Amazon.

Off the strength of recommendations on this thread, I've ordered a Pixel 6a, as I managed to get a new one for £258. I'm a little worried about no headphone jack and no expandable memory, likely for no good reason at all, so let's see how it goes!

I should hopefully get around £50 trading in my old Galaxy S8 as well, so cost to change of about £220 once you factor in a case and screen protectors. I'm pretty pleased with that given the cost of a flagship phone these days.

Yeah sorry you're right. I don't know why I was disoriented in my head. I'll try and get some time off work and get up there before sunset in the next few weeks in that case. It must be such a lovely sight to see!

Oh interesting, where did you go? When we moved up here we heard the starling murmurations were great, but 2 years ago went up to the marsh just north of the British Flurospar quarry and saw absolute diddly squat around Christmas time

I use dwMap on a different Garmin watch (forerunner 235) and I'm a big fan of the free version. It's just a breadcrumb trail rather than an actual map, but I've found it good enough to navigate fairly complicated trail runs that I've not done before. I've also used it when walking in a different country where I don't want pay for data on my phone to use that as a tracker.

At complicated junctions you'll sometimes end up going the wrong way, but it's easy to spot that pretty quickly.

Give it a go for sure, it's free after all.

And the bit at the end of the article. We asked twitter for their comment, but they fired all the PR people so there's no one in that type of role any more. ROFL

Anyone got a recommendation for a room divider for a home office? My wife will be going back to working remotely before long, and I'm full time remote as well. The room we use as a home office has enough space for us both, but we sit back back to back so would like a divider to reduce noise from each other's conferences, plus also give a bit of privacy when we're both on camera.

I'm sure I'm being really stupid, but where on GCN are the highlights of cross races? I can only ever find the full races. They're not that long so generally do watch, but would love to watch quick highlights sometimes when time is tight.

I have the same one. Yeah it will have gone manual because someone pressed the plus or minus buttons to manually set a temperature.

As said earlier, press the right button to take it back into auto mode. Then consider placing it upstairs where you have the heating so it'll turn itself off when the upstairs reaches the desired temp.

Nothing broken about it, so no need to replace unless you're looking for an excuse to do so.

Haha! Interesting... I have been thinking of buying one for similar reasons. What's the taste like versus a pour over, and how do you grind differently, if at all? Will it use v60 papers, or do you need to buy different ones?

What I don't get is effectively increasing income tax for everyone via freezing the tax free threshold, but then giving a cut on stamp duty for home buyers to "help the housing market".

Wages are stagnating and inflation is high, so who on earth does it benefit to keep house prices high, rather than let the free market correct itself?

Yeah it won't do erg mode

I've got one, but don't use the built in connectivity. I just use it as a dumb trainer with a separate power meter.

Thanks so much! It'll be our first time away from 6 month old baby, so knowing rough timings is a huge help.

I'm seeing them in Nottingham tomorrow, so excited! Did they have a support act? How long did they play for?
