.... as always, it was great. D.
Wait until Bullshit gets his hands on you for violating a Clique Decree... Both, actually. And now I'm drinking a cup of coffee. What a fascinating life I lead, eh ..? D.
**** bear, the twat killfiled me for talking about shit in the first place so he can shove that and anything else he fancies up his arse. He doesn't have one redeeming feature and can **** off and die, as far as I am concerned. Well, that depends on the coffee, doesn't it? I just looked in the refrigerator and have discovered that I'm out of milk so that means popping down to the shop, which is only five minutes away to get some, unless I drink it black, of course.
But .. but .. how can you say that?? He's the centre of the newsgroup, the 'high priest' at whose feet all of UKRM must worship if they're to avoid the vitriol directed at me by his friends! I mean, just look at geoff ('raden') ... as regular as clockwork, I attack his mate Bullshit Bear, he pops back up and has a go at me. How can you risk such .. such... such _condemnation_ ?? He is a complete wanker, isn't he? Well I have one more hour of class and then have some stuff to buy before Shabbat. Water bottle and cage for my bike, bottle of wine, 'have to go and check out bike frames so that I can order a 'Surly' frame, and I'm having a coffee with two former pupils (both female, in case our resident wannabe feminist feels like daubing me in as a rampant sex predator). It's all go. D.
Sorry, you lost me after "UKRM must worship". Well I don't know about that but I'm sure his friends love him. You should try drinking wine on the Sabbath. I'll be at the EOSM ;-) Not for me it isn't, I've got a dentist appointment at a quarter to midday and conveniently, the hairdresser who also barbers in his spare time is a few doors down from there so I'm going to get a haircut in readiness for my holiday next week and then I've got nothing to do except play the guitar and watch some telly. Why do you want a surly frame? A happy one not good enough?
You should try drinking wine on the Sabbath. I'll be at the EOSM ;-)[/QUOTE] We do, always. But I bought a bottle of kosher Israeli yesterday for Shabbat .. and quaffed it all last night. Get a fucking blog. Heh. I already have this .. http://coughlan.fr/bike.jpg http://coughlan.fr/bike_2.jpg [1] ... but the frame is a tad too small for me, and I fucking hate those handlebars. So I've managed to find a company that will sell me a Surly Long Haul Trucker frame (which is the bike I've wanted for ages), and 'cannibalise' the stuff from my Dawes. Now, if you'll excuse me .. D. [1] with thanks to Nick for the Apple sticker..
We do, always. But I bought a bottle of kosher Israeli yesterday for Shabbat .. and quaffed it all last night.[/QUOTE] Isn't Shabbat a day of rest? Won't you be working by using your arm to drink from the (furry) cup? Good idea with the frame, the Dawes does look a bit weedy and the basket frames don't help, imho. Does that mean you're off? Thanks, Nick.
Last bike I had had the straps, and I narrowly escaped death after my foot got stuck, and I fell left into traffic. So now the straps are a thing of the past. Or is this part of the master plan to get rid of me ..? D.
The glass we use is called a kiddouch glass. Ours is made of .. **** knows what it's made of, actually. Pewter ? Is that cheapo ? I don't think it's silver.. Anyway, there are 39 'activities' that we can't do on the Shabbat, and of course as they date from Biblical times (when there were no phones, cars, computers etc...), they've been adapted to modern dayas. Drinking isn't one of them. The whats ? It's a nice bike, actually, but I'm pretty disappointed by the lack of the legendary 'Dawes quality'. Fucking awesome brakes, though. How'd you do that?? D.
Curses, foiled again! Have you tried Shimano SPD pedals? Although lethal, they do improve your cycling efficiency.
