  2. Building up to 30 degrees next week from tomorrow..... definitely arrived.
  3. From OKR to Elephant was appalling today, looks like everyone had tried that instead.
  4. This came up on R4 Gardeners Question Time last Sunday 14th June. iplayer will help I'm sure. Keep mowing was the answer iirc.
  5. I'm writing this on a Chromebook which I use a lot. Once I realised that 90% of my laptop useage was essentially browsing a Chromebook became a cheap quick and sensible option. For that it is absolutely brilliant. But.. even though logically I know that Google docs etc would work for me when it comes to actual work I reach for the Windows laptop instead. I guess in my head a Chromebook is at the moment a kind of tablet with keyboard, and great at that, but the Windows laptop is still a "proper" or "real" computer. Not a logical conclusion I know, but where I am right now.
  6. To the question - if you have been riding a scooter as the question suggests and your question is more about actually using the controls on a geared bike then fine, I can happily show you. But back to my question - do you have a bike? (as you ain't using mine!) (Back in my day you just rode around until you got the hang of it......!)
  7. Looks OK to me from the pic. How is it a hazard?
  8. Resident Advisor 470 - Andrew Weatherall - http://www.residentadvisor.net/podcast-episode.aspx?id=470 I had this on the player as I saw him in the newsagent next to work the other day.. I refrained from stopping him and chatting but this is class stuff for those who like it....

  11. Whilst listening to Andrew Weatherall's very fine Resident Advisor Podcast mix last week, I found myself crossing paths on the pavement with.. Andrew Weatherall. Which was nice. Love the mix though http://www.residentadvisor.net/podcast-episode.aspx?id=470

You just need to make your petrol slightly less attractive than someone else's and a bit more hassle...... (unfortunate but true) Should be OK with what you're doing already.
  16. As in the real world, it's much easier on here to talk about negatives, things we don't like, problems. I'd like to bring together a place where we can remind ourselves people are generally fundamentally good, and I'll start. Feel free to share your good news stories.. I got a knock on my door tonight 5 minutes after arriving home in a cab. A total stranger was stood there asking my name, once we established who I was he gave me my wallet which I'd clearly dropped as I got out of the cab, which alongside the usual cards etc had a reasonable amount of cash in it. No reward asked for, or accepted. Thank you.
  17. I work near the Honourable Artillery Company on City Road and Chinooks fly in there fairly regularly, very cool.

  20. He did OK representing Montenegro in Eurovision.
  21. JS Coachworks just over in Forest Hill - top guy. Real world fellah and really friendly. [www.jscoachworks.co.uk]
  22. I recall a poster featuring Sophie Dahl was accused of casing a few accidents a number of years ago. Is that what you were thinking of?

I live near here, but comments about a bus every 15 minutes being a problem always make me smile. Compared to most of the country that's pretty darn frequent! Smart phone bus apps will help anyway, you shouldn't be waiting for long if you decide not to walk.

  25. I think this bit at the end of the piece is interesting, relating to how they potentially fulfil a need regardless of aspirations. (The loss of the pub is routinely bemoaned, as a place of community) "The chain is now the nation?s fifth-most-popular place to have breakfast. Its accessibility in terms of price makes the march of ?Spoons? seem inevitable, particularly in a world in which public space is ever-shrinking: it lines its pubs with books while libraries are closing, and competes with supermarket beer prices while offering more company than a living room or kitchen. Winning the breakfast war maintains Wetherspoons? existence as a kind of unofficial public space. How sobering you find that reality depends on whether your glass is half full or half empty. And perhaps how many of them you?ve had."
