Yawn

Just wanted to say that bicycle boutique is a top place. I took my new frame in today, on the off chance they they could cut the steerer and fit the headset and they came up trumps. Bought a few extra bits and pieces (wished I could have bought more from there) and the prices were amazing. Easily spent double on the small stuff in other shops around town.

I'll be back there without doubt. Two thumbs up!

If you want Guy to build them, drop the stuff of at Harry halls and tell 'em you want him to build them. He's gonna be working there for the time being.

Bicycle Boutique are my local, everyone there is really sound. Guy and Jamie are always up for chatting about bikes and parts and such.

Without the Boutique I would not be in business. They store and maintain my cargo bike (to the extent of being available for call-outs - which I've only had to use three times in 5 years), and I let them buy me beer.

Bumped into Guy on his last day of work at BB on wednesday, sad times. We had a good natter about motorbikes though, I wish him well in the world of engines.

I forgot to mention that they are all deeply flawed human beings.

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
