Any question answered...

Do disc brake rotors that can be attached to the thread of the hub and be secured by a lockring exist? Would that work or would the rotor be to close to the spokes? Shall I go on dragons den?

This came up a couple of weeks ago, there is an adaptor which attaches a 6-bolt rotor to a 1.370" hub thread:

Chinese characters show up as squares with 4 little western characters in them on the computer I'm using, does anyone know of a website where I can copy and paste this script to see what the Chinese characters should look like?

Anyone know where I can get a parental consent for for HH?
I just upped my ratio to be able tot go for the last week of training tomorrow with some friends but now it's looking like we can't go...

Hi Tim... x

its 107 and semmetrical on both sides

That's good, because you'd need an inverse shim between the fixed cup and the shell if it were only symmetrical on one side.

I have one that may fit...

Thanks fruitbat.

I use that line a lot too.

crosspost from chocolate thread:

does anyone know where I can buy Mary chocolates in London? The shop in Westfield has shut down so can't do that, and delivery for a small box online is £60 :o

Has anyone tried Pay As You Gym ?
I am in desperate need to get back into it but I dont see me signing up for a year contract with VirginActive again.

My friend uses this gym: www.thegymgroup.com
Seems pretty good value and she says it's really good. I think you might be looking for different things in a gym though, she does neither weights nor tanning.

For the record
For future generations that may ask the question

Thegymgroup.com is brilliant! The gym group Waterloo to be specific.
It's £20 a month with well spaced equipment in a large area with almost everything one can want out of gym equipment. There aren't pools and there aren't saunas and there aren't tanning beds so there aren't a mass of people who just get in your way.
In fact, this has more variety they most virgins I've been too. Only issue is that the dumbbells dont go heavy enough.

Did clocks change last night? And if so what time is it?

Tonight, goes back at one am to midnight.

Is it not 2am becomes 1am? It makes all the difference.

Oh you're right, sorry.

I forgive you.

What are these attachments called for tightening wires? Where could I get one in North London?

There used to be a great place for this stuff on Bethnal Green Road, a trucker store. Wonder if it's still there?

Clocks? Spring forward, fall back. (or 'autumn back' in UK speak which spoils the mnemonic)

Turnbuckle
The chandlery on Shaftesbury Avenue WC2 probably has them, also Screwfix in N7, N15 or N17

Yes, fall back. The mnemonic's kind of crap though. It's possible to spring back and fall forward. I haven't thought of an alternative.

Why not?

Hi TS.

Apparently this is NASA.

No, this is ESA. Slowtwitch is NASA http://www.slowtwitch.com/Tech/What_s_in_a_tube__1034.html

Any suggestions for reasonable in-ear headphones with a short (12" or so) cable. The ones I bought in Japan have finally given up the ghost and you don't seem to get them much over here.

Cheers

You'd get them in Daniel Lewis and Son on Hackney Road, might be the place you're thinking of.
