Any question answered...

Thanks, this could be an option. I'll give them a shout

Do those handheld clothes steamers actually work and, if so, how much do you need to spend to get a decent one.

Would be nice to not have to get the ironing board out for occasional items but do they actually get creases out?

They do work, or at least the big ones do. I used to work in a Barnardos shop and we used one to drop all the creases out of donated clothes before they went on the racks.

Whether this translates to domestic models or which is the best I don't know.

Here in Manitoba it cost about $6000 CAD. This included extraction, installation of titanium post, 9 months of bone builder (the root canal from decades before had led to jawbone issues) and gold replacement, because gold, and the couple hundred dollar difference wasn’t enough to deter me.

Turin or Gent

We have one we picked up from the Aldi middle aisle a few years ago for £30 as I recall. Strongly recommended. It works well, and is really good for sticking in your suitcase when travelling with stuff you would otherwise iron.

It is clearly not the same thing as a full iron on something like a formal shirt. You won't get sharp creases, but you will get wrinkles out. I'm sure you already knew that, but wanted to make sure I set expectations.

Does anyone know where I can source one of these capacitors?

This looks like it

It's very close, but the pins are more widely spaced (22.5mm vs. 15mm). The circuit board appears to be drilled for both, so I may well give it a try.

Any recommended trainline apps?

I use thameslink line. I used to use the old thameslink app which wasn't amazing but did what I need with favourites, status, etc. but since it's been discontinued you have to use the main one. Which is fucking pointless as I just want my routes not their whole website in a different layout that I have to log in to view my favourites.

Cheers

Try cricklewood electronics (https://cricklewoodelectronics.com/0.33uF-305VAC-X2-Mains-Rated-Polypropylene-Capacitor.html or https://cricklewoodelectronics.com/0.47uF-305VAC-X2-Mains-Rated-Polypropylene-Capacitor.html) , rs electronics trade counter or CPC.

Cricklewood should be able to give you best advice, going up to 305v isn't an issue.

Am buying some 33uf ones on Saturday from rs rotherhithe.

I just make do with the Trainline app, although it’s a ticket booking app it shows times, stops and status

If you’re on an iPhone, Railboard is pleasingly efficient: https://www.railboard.com/

Should have said. Android.

The pin spacing won’t make any difference. Just bend the pins if necessary.

Here’s a 15mm one if you want like-for-like: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/286074521560

whats up with that handlebar!!! cool i guess....

Ai is my guess, as searching for lpz rave handlebars doesn't come back with anything.

Surely it's just terrible AI/potatochop

Track bars to make it easier to lean into the banking???

How wet am I going to get cycling from bounds green to catford at around 1 today?

I'm a recent convert to trainpal...no booking fees and seems to let you pin routes.

terrible AI

As AI pix of cyclists go, it's not even bad. Most of the ones I see look like a deranged mash up of M C Escher and H R Giger

Some successful googling has taken me to here. Key content:

This is an asymmetric handlebar designed to help with a mobility issue. The rider in question (facebook.com/josemarialpz82) had an elbow fracture that didn't heal well and can no longer fully extend his right arm.

Faces look similar enough to me, so I think that's your answer.

Any drone gurus here?

Can I safely and legally fly a drone, perhaps a DJI Mini 4 Pro, over a group of hundreds of people doing an activity?

The people will know the drone is there and I will have permission from the organizers and landowners.

eg someone took this, I think with a drone, but I can't work out what rules they were working under

It’s all in here, assuming you’re in the UK: https://register-drones.caa.co.uk/drone-code/the_drone_code.pdf

The answer is “no”, if you’re sticking within the law…
