  • It does but it's still too big.

    @eskay Oh yeah of course. I was trying to think of something I could jam in there that wouldn't crush or deform, a nut would do the job.

  • Nope, works with road pull.

  • they all look like they have the same size pusher

    Well, the Campag (#770) one fits Campag cranks, so they're obviously not all exactly the same size 🙂

    Pusher on my Campag measures 11.95mm,the small end of a square taper axle is usually 12.7mm, so there's not much difference between too big and too small, since the 8mm in the middle is a hole leaving only a 2mm wide ring to press on

  • That's what I thought. Cheers.

  • Tapers look a bit squashed.

  • Tapers look a bit squashed.

    Yeah, as though somebody has had a non-standard bolt on there with a small head and given it the gronk.

  • Fair, but why anything at knee level?

  • What does a pink plastic flamingo in a window / garden signify? Since I’ve moved to the suburbs I see this a lot and Google doesn’t seem definite beyond ‘we’re a bit wacky’.

  • Swingers probably. Bad taste definitely.

  • That looks homemade to me from maybe a car stereo speaker. So it could be anything a wacky previous own dreamt up. Is there a circuit board inside or wires going into the house?

  • At knee level?

    toddler level

  • Is that a jack socket next to the key switch?

    Miniature guitarists. I'm sticking with that because cats, dogs and foxes don't play guitar.

  • Can I expect a visit from the filth after my Costco shop?

  • Recruitment visit?

  • I almost bought a massive roll of black bin bags too.

  • I wouldn't keep that in the boot of your car with a shovel TBH.

  • I find a folding trenching shovel effective at both despatch and disposal.

  • I've just got an email from a company regarding an order placed in Sept 22, saying that the payment was never taken due to an administrative error, and to get in touch to either pay it or return the goods for a refund.

    Do I ignore it? Or will they send debt collectors to get my daughter's £20 coat?

  • return the goods for a refund

    A refund of what? Did they take the payment or not?

    If you placed the order and received the goods, then you have to pay them the agreed price. That's the most basic meaning of a contract for sale/purchase.
    The extent to which they will attempt to enforce that is obviously limited in the context of a debt of £20, but if they sell it to a collection agency then the agency can add it to your dossier held by credit reference agencies, which is more trouble than anybody needs for £20

  • Sorry not a refund. A calling off of the debt hounds. I can't see if I paid or not - it was nearly 6 months ago, and I don't which one of several payment methods were used. I'd better give them a call

    I am very sorry to inform you that we were not able to take payment for your order. This was due to a system error which meant that the authorisation of funds expired on our system before we were able to charge you. We do apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause for you.

    We would advise you to check your statement to confirm this.

    Should you wish to keep the item(s), we would need to process a recharge. The recharge can be processed in two ways:

    1. You can provide your PayPal email address and we can request the funds this way.
    2. You can respond to this email with a suitable time to call and we can take your card details over the phone.

    Alternatively, you are more than welcome to return the item back to our warehouse through the following link. Just let us know once the item has been returned so that we can note this on our system. Please do let us know how you would like to proceed, and we can assist you further.

  • Could be true, could be a company that has had its email hacked and someone is out to make a bit of cash. I'd be dubious about responding using any of the details in the email.

  • Wording sounds potentially dodgy. I’d give them a call on a number you’ve looked up, rather than letting them call you asking for card details

  • I've gone on Tw*tter and F*cebook to ask them. Can't find a phone number anywhere. Stay tuned for the next exciting installment!
