Tour de Ville Bikeshop

I suffer with you. Everyday, I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for the fucken Snow Leopard disk to come through. The suspense is killing me!

Enough bike chat.

So is Snow Leopard worth it then? Would I find it useful, Lenni?

Dunno. Virtually no new features (apart from MS Exchange support), just a helluva faster. But I like new things.

The work experience boy says it's great.

Always take advice on new work technology from visiting secondary school pupils, that's my motto.

He just sits there with his Macbook running far advanced software than we have, pondering how we manage to do anything with our antiquated (12 months old) software.

Is Royal Mail still fucked?

Take a wild guess whether or not I've received any of the goods yet...

Hear Zed's story: http://www.londonfgss.com/thread2241-2.html, from # 78

Motherfuck. Thing is, I have to start to consider filing a complaint thru eBay to maybe get my money back.

dude if it's a problem, give jos a ring. or drop by the shop.

He's in helsinki (skunkworks, not Jos)

Doesn't Ross(Brixton Cycles) work there now to?

I think so, I was in there a few weeks ago and was speaking to a guy called Ross working there

Emailed them yet? Info@tourdeville.co.uk

Yeah, Ross definitely works there, but recently had a bad crash, don't know whether he's in the shop daily at the mo....

I saw ross and jos on saturday. They don't seem to be replying to emails.

And why would they! grumble

Better for me to shut up and just wait.

why don't you give them a ring?

He has. Try reading the rest of the thread...it's been a pretty long ordeal, it would seem.

Okay: I got home back from work and saw a note from the post office. Went there and received a big box.

Got home and opened it.

Jesus H. motherfucking Christ and all the whore's minions! The frame is an absolute pornstar (in semi-nasty nineties colour)! It's pristine, untouched (unlike, I believe, the common pornstar would be) and, well, I don't know, perfect! The Iscaselle Dakar saddle was nice,t oo.

The packaging was good. When I was hauling out the pieces -- remember to recycle, kids! -- I discovered they had sent me two cycling caps, a pair of socks, a pair of gloves and two rolls of cloth bartape, I think it is (too drunk and ignorant to know) with some other paraphernalia.

So I got out and got drunk -- it's Wednesday, after all -- because I felt happy.

But, Jos, you resd this? Please, man, really, try to be more informative. 'S all I ask. I like to know what's happening with my order. And I believe other would like the same thing, too.

Still not sure how my eBay feedback will be, but the amount of endorphins the frame secretes is bound to quell some of the anger I've felt.

Now the only thing left is the Mavic handlebars. After those, I'm sated. Like Stormbringer after a hundred slain. I purr.

Take care.

Sated.

Show us a pic then! (of the frame that is)

I love happy endings.

Might not be the right forum for it as the frame will not end up as a fixed-gear nor a single-speed. But I will take a few pics and post them.

my bad.
