do the offending requests all have https referers ?

my guess would be that those people haven't got the new dns yet so they're going direct and don't have an X-Forwarded-For

As an aside, I know someone who could be fairly accurately described as 150kg of ginger cake.

150kg ? I'm impressed.

I'm on virgin ADSL:

... it will be 1800 seconds before I see the new site

It may depend on your ISP as well as desktop OS - if you ISP's DNS nameserver has an old record cached for www.lfgss.com then you'll still be talking to the old site.

Since when have threads been required to stay on topic?!

You can't say that, whether or not threads must stay on topic is off topic for this thread

Does anyone know if any of the cycle rental places in the New Forest hire out Single Speed bikes ?

No, but there are free horses.

the chicken, not yourself

pluck first

chicken pot roast: start with couple of cups of chicken stock, root veggies, rub salt and pepper into chicken and bung it in.

Who's going to be the first to buy this atrocity..

It has bluetooth. Everything is better with bluetooth.

I did http://www.action.org.uk/winchester_100/100_mile_route on Sunday, and saw a pack of riders some of whom kept holding out their right arms at a 45 degree downward angle, while keeping the same position in the pack and not turning or moving right.

What does that signal mean ?

It returns at 50690 pm on Sundays ?

It's not an offence unless it is "likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress".

Arguably, a small sticker on a bike is unlikely to do so, and the fact that a jobsworth bizzy doesn't like it is neither here nor there.

We're missing some information here: did he deploy that note because he happened to spot the cuntmobile, or because an offended person (possibly on a day trip from Tumbridge Wells) came into the station demanding that something be done about it ?

We don't know.

In the latter case his response seems reasonable to me. He has to do something to get rid of the complainant. Saying "yes sir, it refers to your mum" might have been what he wanted to do but he knew he couldn't.

: if all that's in front of them is a minor offence then they should go looking for a more serious one.

ftfy, and I don't imagine they'd need to look hard or for long.

So no police officer should ever do anything about any minor offence ? I expect the people who let their dogs crap on the pavement and don't bother to pick it up would agree with you.

: Anyway, a bicycle carrying this sticker at this time is merely an indicator that the rider is cynical about the performance of Sky in the Tour, since it is the term used by no less a figure than our greatest living roadman and multiple Olympic gold medallist B.Wiggo.

I'm not arguing that it's right that it should be an offence to have a Scunthorpe Bicycle with some of the letters rubbed off, just that given that it is (which I'm also not certain of) then the officer is right to deal with it.

No, not all things are equal. Should police deal with crimes in a first-come, first-served fashion? No, they should prioritise.

Certainly if an officer sees a rude parked bike and a person being stabbed, then they should attend to the higher priority first. But if all that's in front of them is a minor offence then they should tackle that.

How much water do you carry for something like this, and do you expect to be able to refill bottles during the ride ?

Looking to drive to paris with as many bikes as practicably possible. Car can either be a hatchback or a saloon depending on how nice my dad is feeling.

Place bikes side by side. Apply duct tape to convert them into a single unpowered road vehicle. Attach to rear bumper of car with triangular wooden frame, string and more duct tape.

What could possibly go wrong ?

A large beetle bounces off my upper lip, and goes harmlessly on its way. Oh shit, I think, I'm riding with my mouth open again.

A good man ! :)

Hey, she used to be an estate agent. Getting involved with the house shopping would have been like having a dog and barking for myself.

She's not on here BTW, as you can probably tell.

Even 15 miles are you sure you going to want to do that every single day all year round?

When my wife was looking for our house, I gave her a limit of 15 miles each way for my journey to Hammersmith. Ended up with 16 and a bit, I've been cycling it almost every day for six months and I'm still loving it. I'm no athlete. Really, not at all. I worked up to 5 days a week gradually; at first my legs hurt a lot but now they're used to it.

I sit at a computer all day at work, so a bit of exercise to and from is welcome. It might be different if I had a physically active job.

Where can I get a waterproof handlebar mount for my Nokia E63 ? I don't need to be able to operate it on the move, just notice when I'm being phoned so that I can stop and call them back.

You stand in the back garden and call for "Smudge Arthur Philip Louis" ? Could be worse, my dad had a cat called Taxi, when he stood at the back door and called him the neighbours must have thought he was senile.
