I follow @cliveo on Strava, he’s often cycling into town to buy artisan teas from his merchant in Mayfair.

About to give Caligula the ultimate cut a go.
Well maybe not all in one sitting as it’s 3hrs long

Edit: think I’ll bail on this one, something tells me it could do with editing down to below 2 hours and even then I’ll not recommend it.

They are huge and not easy to mistake but often in the woods you only get a second or 2 to before they are gone but as you know we do get kites and buzzards come and visit.
I think I spotted a snipe last week but it was flying away and probably only visible for less than a second, has a fairly distinctive flight.
I did used to shoot many years ago so have seen (and missed) a fair few along with their bigger brother the woodcock.
Didn’t think they made it this far into town.

“ Haven’t ventured outside yet”
Not put the heating on either!?

The hobby would have left for sunnier climes so sparrowhawk or kestrel?
The male peregrine is fair bit smaller than the female but they are usually flying over rather than in the woods unless eating.
There are little and short eared owls sighted not far away but no idea if they are in Dulwich woods.

I think that’s because the plans for the nighttime raid have been changed to daylight with no backup close fire support.

Use an accountant, then the registered address is their business address.

Probably less sqM of green here (SE19) wonder what’s behind the lack of certain birds?

You must live somewhere with high density housing? Fake grass out back and 3 cars per house on the concrete front ‘garden’ ?

The only legitimate scenarios for indoor hat wearing are:
Broken boiler situation
A large covered space such as a train station
Visiting a public toilet outside of the home.

As for baseball? What’s that? Some American apology for sport?
It’s certainly not cricket.

It will get you a nice monitor but it’s not going to get you anything accurate for grading or subtle colour work.
Yes you can do the same work on a cheaper monitor but you are paying for knowing it’s accurate within the defined colourspace and being able to see the fine colour adjustments you make, the panels are more uniform plus the best monitors self adjust to keep close to desired settings.
I use an Eizo CG, if on a budget then Asus and BenQ do some well regarded monitors that are not gaming monitors and selling themselves on refresh rate and contrast.

It’s still a beanie but in mustard yellow and 2 sizes too small, the also commit the heinous crime of wearing it indoors.

Yes that was much later, start point of the brooks thing was down the side of Euston station.

But who did the skid?
Wasn’t there a phrase about walking your fixed?…

A non M is fine right now but you are buying into a technology dead end, either pony up for the M and have something that is going to take updates and be supported for a fair few years or get a cheap as chips stopgap until you can afford an M powered machine.

Just wear outrageous sunglasses all night (try not to trip up)

I’m sure someone will say something to the contrary but I invented that phrase and you were witness to its first utterance.
Location was some bit of pavement near Swiss Cottage at the beginning of a ride through regents and to a hotel near Lancaster Gate.
Corny and CliveO were there along with the usual suspects, myself and RPM arrived and I said in a loud slightly excitable voice “Hello! Are you the London Fixie-skidders!”
I think there should be a blue plaque put up.

That’s probably Ibai

You could ignore the caramel part and just mix the sugar straight in but next one I make will definitely have the caramel in.

I think a decent oven that gets hot is more important, ours is old and rubbish so didn’t go above 220.
Had to give it 5 more mins over the stated half hour, think bakeries do them in 20min or so.

@spotter is having a key cut for me but I have no idea what’s behind the door.
Definitely a touch of the FOMO.

I’m seeing loads right now, probably due to the leaves being off the trees and them being more visible, seen 3 today already, 2 out the window and one while popping to the shops.
Do have mature oaks outside the window and a view of a wooded nature reserve so obviously prime habitat for them.

This is a fairly good breakdown on the issue for those who are not owning/running forums or working in IT.

There also appears to be ongoing consultation and ‘tools available’ to help website owners.?.

On the tickbox list of things that will trigger an investigation from ofcom I would imagine LFGSS doesn’t have any, plus they will be massively understaffed and have to use their meagre resources to focus on the real nasty stuff and the people who own and run those sites.

But it’s Velocio’s forum to do with what he likes.

I know nothing about running one but surely there are places that can run forums based in far flung nations that would be outside the scope of this act?

Looks old, presume it was there long before the garage.
