Any question answered...

Mine more inside the knee pain. keeping my knees out straight actually helps, or even at and angle so they are coming in to the floor but not flat footed.

Going to try this and leg lifts for now.

I roll my IT band most nights now, one side is noticiably worse than the other.

It also hurts from sitting on the sofa at home so I tend to sit on the floor most of the time.

Just to clarify by inside do you mean inside leg or actually inside your knee?

also, how bad does rolling the IT band ache!?

When you first do it It's absolute agony, but you do get used to it after a while. But don't leave it long between rolling it, it'll hurt even more!

It's the inside of my knee, where you knee hinges and you've got the soft tissue It's just below that on the inside of the knee. This will explain it better than my rubbish sentences;

Must have inadvertantly changed a setting on my edge. My course trace now shows me not having followed the various roads I used but cuts corners and is straighter.

How can I get it back.

i've got a cd player from the early 2000s, and standard data cds with audio written on won't play on it. if i write the audio to a cd-r which is designed for the audio standard is it more likely to play?

Where can I buy a 1" steerer ahead stem? S.Ted makes them for £80 but that's out of my budget for the time being.

I want a 1" steerer for the aesthetic, using one with a shim works but looks a bit crap.

How can we find a good conveyancer? We aren't set on having one in London, but we're struggling to decide on one. Prices vary quite a bit: we've had a good personal recommendation but that's £300 more than others we're looking at...

Where on the inter webs can I watch today's Paris-Nice?

Ebay. I've got a black 1 inch 3t mutant in 110mm ish you can have for the price of postage.

I'm after an 80 or a 90mm. Tried ebay already.

will this kill me?

Depends how I hit you with it.

I totally recommend this book

It has a section on choosing a solicitor. Cheaper is not better, friends recommendations are best avoided. Choose one that is local to the property, has connections with the local council where the searches will be made, is modern, up to date with email etc. They should have a partner that can take over during an illness or a holiday etc etc...

DX is nothing to do with Shimano by the way.

Possibly, yes. Data CDs use more of the surface than originally intended. It might be that audio-specific CD-Rs have writable areas more in line with what an older CD player might expect.

There's a shop off Tottenham Court Road that I forget the name of, that specialises in pro audio gear and media; I used to buy both archival and audio-specific CD-Rs from there. Will look up the name if you want.

http://www.protape.co.uk/ is what you are thinking of.

So are you talking about red book - the standard definition of audio cds - or is it just the media that makes the difference with those old players?

I have this lump of granite or quartz or something. It is 160cm x 60cm x 1cm @ 17kg!. I used to use it a wicked kitchen surface.

I want to ebay it but what is it?

Some kind granite or stone cladding? Any ideas what it is and how to describe it?

Ceramic floor tile?

^^^ Protape, indeed.

It's the media that makes the difference, when data CDs came onto the market, people were competing to squeeze as much data on as they possibly could. When you write an audio (as in, red book - of course, only red book audio format will work on an old player) CD to one of these data CD-Rs the header data (to do with how many tracks there are and where they start on the disc) can end up right at the very edge of the disc, beyond where an older CD player was originally designed to read. Thus, they don't work.

At least, that's my understanding of it.

Ceramic floor tile?

list it as Stone Ceramic Work Top Surface Tile and give all dimension and weight and I doubt you'd have a problem

Looks like a laminate work surface to me.
