  • so are we bbq tomorrow?

  • I'm up for it!
    Enjoy a sunny day in chorlton...
    What time shall we meet?

  • yeah lets have a bbq, it's gonna be another blinder tomorrow. We can buy a cheap bbq in chorlton and get meat from the co-op.

    Shall we meet at 2:00 then?

  • I'll be there for 2:00 bringing meat, pita and booze... all we need for a proper polo meeting!

  • i think keiran said he was doing the bbq, it was his idea, well just bring meat etc
    btw dont rely on the morrisons in chortlon, they were out of everything bbq yestreday

  • so 3pm? il bring meat

  • i'm gonna aim for 2.30, still on the wirral now.

  • i'll be there between 2 and 3

  • Can anyone make it for 2? keep me company....

  • Just getting some jerk chicken together to go on the bbq... I'll probably be there about half 2

  • I should be there soon after 2...

  • got saus n sum buns

  • Discovered this Small 52cm ANC-Halfords Peugeot Frame made from Carbolite tubing (believe me there's nothing 'lite' about Carbolite tubing!) By the looks of it it's mid late 80's and is designed for 700c wheels so no long-drop brake bollocks etc to get it up and running..... The paint work is really tatty otherwise i'd have done it up and flogged it some gullible hipster wannabe...!

    1 - BB will need replacing/repacking, i've not tried to open it yet but will later...
    2 - Alloy stem is welded to forks i've tried the hammering the stem bold trick to no avail, so gonna melt the fucker out with caustic soda later (wanted an excuse to do that for ages!)
    3 - The headset actually feels ok, but may need replacing once the caustic soda has done its job...
    4 - it'll need a seat post, not sure of the size but it's NOT 27.2mm - Snoops has my calipers so couldn't measure it....

    Anyone interested once i've got it sorted out a bit...? Minimal cash wanted purely for my time sorting it out & parts (caustic soda, bearings etc)....

    Yup, I'll have it when it's finished dude, for whatever you want. I've already got the wheels so I'll be poloing the fuck out asap!

    Sorry couldn't resist it....! sure you can take first dibs on it on the condition that if you don't start playing polo on it all the MCR polo lot break into your house and shit on your bike, trainer collection and acne jeans... Ok?

    I'm gonna try the caustic soda trick tonight, and i have these cranks

    which should be pretty good for polo.....

    So that would mean you'd need a couple of bits, but i might have a fair few things....

  • We're on!
    You can hate on my trainer collection all you want but ACNE JEANS ARE LISH. Bitch!

  • Plattfields:
    Whitworth: ste, andy
    Stretford:
    Chorlton:

  • Plattfields:
    Whitworth: ste, andy, woody
    Stretford:
    Chorlton:

    :

    I'll believe it when I see it

  • I'll believe it when I see it

    Well look at it this way, if he doesn't we all get to break into his flat and shit on his bike, trainers and acne jeans..... its the condition of him having the frame....

    I personally think its a very fair condition....

  • whitworth at 6 with special guest morgan then? see you there

  • I'm gonna go to Stretford, on my own. I'll be king of the court! (well, if the kids don't tax me that is)

  • Put on your dancing SPD's, as I'm going to be ALL OVER THAT COURT!

    In a bad, falling over way probably.

  • 6 o'clock kids?
