  I repeat the thanks to @Velocio

  I respect you have done the hard work to keep this place going and it's your choice to make.
  But you are not alone on this, and some legal expertise might illuminate an alternative path.

  E.g. regardless of how threatening the OSB'23 might appear, OFCOM doesn't have the ability or goal to destroy, Section 392 Communications Act 2003 means they have to publish (and then follow) their penalty guidelines. These (last updated Sept.17) are clear on the objective of penalties and "Ofcom will ensure that the overall amount of the penalty is appropriate and proportionate to the contravention in respect of which it is imposed, taking into account the size and turnover of the regulated body."

  £70 is what you'd pay for that lock, it appears to be an Abus Granit, which is (was?) the best portable (sub2kg) locks you can get.
  So total bargain for a ready to go commuter/pub-bike !

• Suspicious Ebay / Gumtree Sales

  I know eBay listings often use stock photos rather than the actual stock for sale... But the pads themselves are brown rather mottled grey as they should be... Which I find odd.

  So this turned up and was 499 less spokes than expected. Appears to have been a listing error and has now been amended.
  Still worth it for free delivery !
