Tea? (Part 2)

[hopless500]

Ok, I backtracked and found it. If people don't like the tea thread they can choose not to read it. Honestly, that was ridiculous. 100 % with you piglet. Lucky I wasn't there I think. I noticed that it got closed down rather quickly....

I certainly don't want it near my bike





It's a headset for the front forks.

Missed your answer in my mug frenzy Thank you Wocky! I am pleased I know what a headset is and I am pretty sure I am ok on front forks

 

[potsy]

Have we been infiltrated?
Could have at least brought cake in before they go back to c&d

 

[potsy]

Careful tmn you're almost becoming a regular in here

 

[hopless500]

I've been around CycleChat for a while now but not being a tea drinker I've never looked at this thread until now, only being prompted to do so after seeing a complaint or two about it being moved. So now that I'm here, what's it all about? That's assuming you're not going to throw me out for being a coffee drinker.

No, but if you don't drink beer we might have to reconsider

Who can knit? I need one of these for my Mug

I can, and I rather like those..... knitting needles at the ready (almost).

Well, I still don't know what the fuss is actually about, so I'll ignore it. Storm in a teacup or something.

Puddles:

If you can follow a pattern, you should be able to do it, It looks a bit more complicated than the other ones, what with having buttons. And the arms seem to be circular knitting, where I'd probably just knit a rectangle and fold it and sew it into a tube. And I'd probably not use ties, but devise something that could be slipped on and off like a teacosy.

Are you a beginning knitter wanting to have a go?

Or would you like me to have a go for you?

Nothing wrong with Organizational Behaviour........I taught it for 12 years


Actually, can I correct that.............there's a lot wrong with OB, it's really tedious

It was the fact that Business Banking had been combined with Organised Behaviour, that struck me as very strange. If Bankers had been organised and had integrity, they would not have made such a mess up of things.

oooopppps This is turning into C and D.

The ickle hands might be the tricky bit.
