Ach nae bother, my bike's out of action anyway. Some noob mechanic shortened the brake hose while the forks were compressed and locked out so its too short on full travel. You need to have a word with your staff...

Was chatting to a neighbour last night. Apparently old mines run in my area and certain localised spots are known for structural issues - one house had to be knocked down!

i heard.

Bad times eh. Did you see the end terrace one next door to the one we looked at? It's sitting at a bizarre angle and there is a MASSIVE crack in the gable end.

Clare - want us to fix?

Wherever you're headed, stay low - these winds'll have you blown off...

A little OT - I be hopefully heading to Inners red Sunday morning if anyone feels like it, eta 09.30 (leaving 08.30), space for 1 + bike on't roof rack.

Hi Kit - definitely back by then (hence 'early' start). If you're interested, I can pick you up anywhere round the south west side.
