Noice. (Hope you got the cage for a good price, they have been getting sill recently!)

True. Got that one for £12 on eBay (Buy It Now), although they seem to normally go for much more. Really nice bit of kit.

It's a term that has been used since before I was measured for my first road bike 1988 to describe saddle possition, top tube lenght, stem length and handle bar possition. Those banging on about it or bitching about it are probably johnny come latelys to the sport

Nice to have you back aroond Rob.

Today is the 4th day the post hasn't arrived. There's not a flake of snow or ice on the roads. WTF is that all about?

Maybe you just don't have any mail?

£12 is crazy cheap for a WI freewheel, I think I'll get my friend in America to buy me one, should work out around £40.

Ouch...

Maybe you just don't have any mail?

Never at any time in the year do we have no mail for 4 days, and there is loads of stuff overdue - internet shopping prezzies, cards, stuff from on here. Not even seen the postman (which I do everyday normally). But our postie is ill, and they've not bothered to replace him - swot happened last time.

Royal Mail - crock ripe for total privatisation.

Because then it will be efficient. Like everything privatized.

Hard to see how it can be worse, and jezez, the money it wastes.

They're not that bad. Can't really do much about the snow and ice. Just always send things recorded with tracking.

In my experience, they're great. Majority of the mail I send/receive is delivered overnght, even when sent second class. Packages are delivered properly, unlike the dozens of shady parcel companies that "attempted delivery" without ever showing up. Prices are good. I can't complain, to be honest.

i just got a xmas card

There is no snow and ice here. The milkman hasn't missed a single delivery this year, and that's before 7 am without fail. There are several items that are tracked we have been waiting over a week for since dispatch, including the out-laws and some of the kids prezzies.

Bloke next door but one is a postman - you should hear what he says about what goes on.

Fuck me, it's gone all online Daily Mail in here.
