Good night all

I'm about to play my bagpipes as an act of revenge.

On who?

Must be worth offering him a tenner Accy.... and then walking away as if you mean it!

It wasn't what i expected. More of a tourer than the "racing bike" he said it was. Not bad though for someone who wants a plodding around on bike. It was also too big for me.

I just put a Britney in the fridge.

When did you get the other one?

Very shortly after I discovered that he had a deadly fondness of porridge oats.

RIP MF

If it comes back anyother way, scorewise, I'm going to see if they'll move the post.
It'll mean we have a mouse posting on here.

I've just had the bill for my new bike








Sadly it's not as mundane as I would like





It's also raining.

Definition of a gentleman? I'm glad you're over ten miles away.

You'll still hear them... he didn't say he could play them well.

But you are gong to have a huge amount of fun with it

I hope so. It's going to come in at a whooping +£550 over budget... Mostly because of issues relating to me needing the single handed braking which has meant an upgrade from the sturmy archer drum brakes to avid bb7 disc brakes, so new wheel rims as well plus the helping hand seat aids for getting in and out of it which alone add £100 on!

That's pretty much all of my savings gone! Do you know anyone who wants a new camera, road bike (ladies) or mountain bike (men's)?

They're not that intrusive as they are uilleann pipes. The chanter reed needs a little tweak as it's not jumping the octave cleanly.

For my next trick I'll be fettling the pads and springs on my Northumbrian pipes' chanter before murdering some slow airs.

Now as for the camera, what would I do with that?

You could take a picture of it next to your foot.

 

[Archie_tect]

That would mean another trip to Florence.

Needs must...

Ah, the times we've sat listening to Northumbrian pipes, unable to escape... like listening to a gentle babbling brook.... for hours.

[Northumbrian pipes are fun to have a go at, but it isn't a spectator sport.]
