    Oh dear. I've noticed that the price of the food in there has gone up in price recently as well.

    Awesome

  • East End beers every Wednesday. On tour! This week at The Pembury Tavern, E8 1JH

  • After not making last week due to work and illness I'm in for this week.

    BlueQuinn if I come on my Raleigh 3 speed any chance you could give me your opinion on why the gears aren't working? Pint in it for you obviously...

  • Barring something remarkable happening I'll be there.

  • Fox gimme the symtoms and I'll give you an opinion.

    Which gear is the problem in?

    Yep I'll take a look,
    If it's not a mere adjustment problem then I can service a 3 speed. The springs lose their springiness, the pawl spring might occasionally snap, but usually they are like new inside and just need a bit of oil now and then. Grease is usually bad for them.

  • Thanks both - not very good at explaining and will definitely come tomorrow.

    But it is stuck in third (I think it's third anyway) and the indicator rod doesn't move very far at all - just over a cm of travel. I can't seem to unscrew it either (someone had suggested it may be bent, but can't see any exterior sign of this). Haven't tried using a pair of pliers to unscrew it as worried that may be forcing it.

  • Well am dropping in to collect cone spanners and be in a mood. So be warned.

  • I'd better bring them with me then!
    With them, a couple of spanners and a lockring tool we should be able to get that 3 speed working.

  • Can't make it tonight but should be around for next week.

  • You reckon? Awesome =)

    Do you need me to bring anything?

    Apart from monies for beers, obviously.

  • I can't make it tonight unfortunately - Niall, just hold on to my light for another week...

  • me too

  • Is gonna be a fleeting visit tonight, I've got too much to do atm.

  • Pembury turns into a cunts 'gastro-pub', sigh.

    Mark my words, it'll be bar skittles and Ploughman's that'll be all the rage soon, they're so behind the curve.

    Would have come to this but i have to go to some kind of social event involving non-cyclists.

  • I will be there this evening.

  • I should turn up midway through I think. Showing some people the soon-to-be-spare room first.

  • I'm out, want to take a frame to Armourtex 1st thing before work, that ain't gonna happen if I come out tonight.

  • I'm not working tonight any more, but I'm in pain and broke. Might come along, might not.

  • I grew up in Pembury

    That is all.

  • It were all fields then ^

    As was Romford, according to that map.

  • .................I've got too much to do atm.

    hope it doesnt involve shaving off that beard.
