All my Vans Chukka boots have worn out the heel lining at the same time. I'll have to start wearing my other five pairs of Vans. I am bereft.

Despite much experimentation, I still have no idea whether to place my tremolo pedal before or after my delay pedal. Apparently it depends on personal taste. I don't have any taste. I am confused.

My phone is far more convenient and captures images almost as good as my stupidly expensive DSLR.
Do I:
A - Put the SLR on the display shelf with the dozen or so film cameras and 20 odd lenses that I'll never use again.
B - Learn how to use the wonderful but amazingly annoying Sony RX100 that lives in my rucsack.
C - Admit that my wife has a better eye than me and could take a better picture with a broken Lomo than I ever could.

I have just dropped a purple plectrum onto a purple rug. It'll turn up, but it's spoiling my hatred of the Nic Cage remake of the Wicker Man, which isn't as ironic as I'd thought it would be.

I am about to give my BMX to my granddaughter.
Everytime I have ridden the bloody thing it has hurt me. A serious haematoma, balls the size of melons and a missing tooth.
So why do I think that a more expensive BMX would solve the obvious talent deficit?

When thinking of experimenting with Cannabis oil, DO NOT confuse THC with CBD.

I feel better now.

And Dez, sorry for being a dick.

Please don’t. I’ve seen pictures.

More expensive bikes are like free skill generators. Buy the most expensive BMX you possibly can. Do it now!

I feel your pain:
5:10s are made by Adidas and not properly made now and too narrow, my two old pairs of 5:10s are wearing out.
My two Digi SLRs run out of battery between uses, the phone has literally thousands of photos on it, and I also have a collection of unused film cameras..
Should I buy new forks or fork inserts to ‘dramatically’ improve my full sus bike. I ride a 15 year old SS most of the time with 12 year old forks and older brakes (have had pads), neither have been serviced for over ten years and both so well, I daren't touch them.
The list goes on.....
But a shiny new bmx, that could help..
