Peredur...both are awesome people, I believe Perry once rode around stages of the tour while also technically on tour with Faithless

and freestanding can prob be taller than I was able to do, so my mtbs could have gone on it... goddamn.

i got the wall mounted one, (x2) when i moved house, only ended up being able to put up one. wish the freestanding had been available then, as I wouldn't have had to do some really sketchy drilling/bolting through insulated plaster board, a void, and into brick I can't see well even from the outside

still absolutely love it though, scrolling through bikes like an athena poster display

I bought a replacement tension bolt the other day, loads of places had them

Fucking hell - this. Even if I don’t feel it, I don’t want to see it either.

are you trying to suppress weeds, restore nutrients, improve drainage or limit frost damage to stuff? Or i guess all of the above?

Yeah to be fair I could trim them, I put them up in a hurry just to see if it would
Be worth spending some more time on. There are even worse bits 😅

I can kind of see mine but it definitely doesn’t draw the eye. But maybe I just don’t care enough

I'd never considered joining a union as a freelance / sole director of ltd company. Seems Unite is the only one that fits my bill. I don't know that I'd directly benefit from membership, at least from what i can tell, so it would more be a case of pledging support for what they do for other people (which is fine)

convincing most of the stakeholders to go and get coffee for the team, to show theyre down to muck in, and then lock the doors while theyre out

I was definitely kidding, but now I want it to happen haha

One ripe one as a treat in among the rubbish green ones

I’ve called time on the last of the greenhouse peppers (though the padron plants are flowering again)

Oh yeah I wouldn’t be questioning it if I was working on any campaigns that had a lot riding on it, but at the moment that doesn’t happen. Would be nice though.

That said, taking that example if I fucked up and broke an embargo that meant a supplier came after my client, which meant they had to claim against me… that’s definitely possible

and there was me thinking tomatoes grew on farms and in the garden and shit

thanks, this makes a lot of sense.

Trustpilot reviews were putting me off Hiscox, I was going to pay a bit more for cover from them vs someone I'd never heard of, but that's on the basis of making a claim being more palatable. Obv people generally only leave a review to moan, so it's hard to judge objectively. Currently I think it would be hard for me to do any major damage to a client, and they're all sub 10 employee businesses so pretty light on requirements and paperwork. Equally for the sake of a couple of hundred quid, it seems silly to be massively exposed.

@steelspeed thanks I'll check them out, hadn't been coming up on my internet trawls.

I am tempted to just not bother, the financial risks to the clients are microscopic so I don't really foresee a way that anyone could come after me for something. Maybe I'll just deal with public liability on a case by case basis or something

any hot tips for professional indemnity cover, and or public liability? I want the latter due to occasionally running photo shoots outdoors, and the former for if I somehow break a client's website and am unable to revert to an old version.

Hiscox appear to just never pay out if you actually have a claim, all the other quotes I'm getting are from companies I've never heard of

I had an amusing time last time I visited, taking roehampton to Richmond gates on the way somewhere as I was with a club member who had never been.

I suggested we do a sweepstake on how long it would be before we had a close pass by a chain of London Dynamo. I think it was within 2 mins

yeah thats the most bewildering bit. there's no prize, the only thing you stand to gain is clout. suing for clout is surely just a way to make sure as many people as possible hear about how much of a cunt you are

full length mudguards, and low-cost luggage capability? there are obv plenty of options for fitting racks/bags to mtb now, even on suspension forks and fitting to through axles etc, but it might mean buying stuff if you don't have it

Sometimes im tempted to put the squishy fork back on my winter grav/atb tourer bike, but i use fork bags a lot if im commuting

My first assumption was that it was using Siri or something to help, which I’d have thought would fall under “available to all participants” and would be ok

Yeah thinking about it more maybe it’s like, “remote assistance team”
