Dear CC, does anyone know where I can buy some fudge at this time of day ?

After yesterday's rides, my total mileage for the year to date stood at 996. A quick pootle this afternoon has brought it into four figures. Four rides account for more than forty percent of the total, which makes me look like a lazy git the rest of the time :smile:
And the 2,000 mark came up yesterday. A bit quicker than the first one, but then doing 180 miles in a day was a bit of help in that. Still looking lazy the rest of the time though!

What size window pane is it? I changed a pane in our kitchen window last year, the seals failed started to steam up. 1000 x 500 d/g cost me about £25, not such a pain to do!

In other news, I've just been entered for the Prudential London 46. No luck with the 100, maybe next year.
It is 1190mm high by 500mm wide. I have been quoted £120 all in with fitting and VAT

Good luck with the Prudential London 46 :smile:

I've just been summonsed for my 3rd jury service in late July. I looked online and had a look at the courts. Zero cycling provision visible. So I phoned up the jury team, who confirmed that there was no provision. As I'm still not very good at walking with my fractured metatarsals (though gentle cycling is fine) so I'm minded to ask for a deferral on mobility grounds, exacerbated by the complete lack of cycling provision. It probably won't bounce the courts into this century but being a reluctant juror might just return the disfavour.

It's probably worth mentioning, I spent the ~3 weeks of a trial walking between the Crown Court and the Magistrates Court because the latter had IT capacity.

Anyone else had the experience of getting partway through a trial before you realised you didn't know the names of your fellow jurors?

I believe that a bicycle is classed as a Class 12 18 Assistive Product for Personal Mobility under ISO 9999: Assistive Products for Persons with Disability ... :okay:
Of course, I have no idea what any of this means...yet! In fact, I have no idea how anybody knows this. Looks good, though. I've no problem doing the service but I don't want to suffer pain and discomfort and additional travelling time because of the courts' own unhelpfulness.
