The woman who knocked me off my bike was totally distrught by what she had done and immediately took full responsibility, her insurance company were also totally straight. Good people sometimes screw up. I hope that if ever I cause a collision I have the honesty and balls to stand up, admit it and do the right thing.Somebody knocked the mirror of my parked shabby van a couple of years ago. It wasn't motorised or anything. Cost £120 to get fixed. The driver today said "Metal can always get fixed. Bodies can't." Decent bloke.
Glad you're not horribly hurtified. Hope the morning doesn't bring on those delayed ouches.I was left-hooked on the Earls Court one way system today. My right knee completely fubared his door mirror before I bounced off his wing and ended up on the tarmac with the bike underneath me. The sound of impact caused some witnesses to rush towards me and look concerned. I got up and span the front wheel to see if it was damaged. It seemed OK and so did I. The driver was extremely apologetic and asked if I was sure I was OK. I was. He offered me a drink at the pub on the corner but I was in a hurry, so we just shook hands and went on our ways. Stuff happens.

I have a couple of ever so slightly bruised hips, I think. I will take a look when I hop in the bath. Nothing that causes much pain. Actually, it could just be the effects of the Brighton ride yesterday!Glad you're not horribly hurtified. Hope the morning doesn't bring on those delayed ouches.
I have ethanol.....I prescribe a large whisky. Cures just about everything... and what it can't cure gin can!
No, 3 in 1. 3 in 1 was developed for the textiles industry, to keep the spools from rusting over the holidays and other breaks. It doesn't stain as much, or so I'm told by a family friend of Mrs. GA who worked in the mills.GT85 !!
Did Brother make sewing machines before they moved into printers?I also have a sewing machine, an older Brother machine that does all the stitches. It's pretty neat, but mostly it fixes bicycle and camping stuff.
Soldering irons? long nosed pliers? wire strippers?
Actually, after extensive testing I have concluded this is best style wire stripper.
