This is my non-EDC, a Fallkniven F1 that I got from Massdrop.

My EDC is a Boker Plus XS: sharp blade, strong spring, UK carry legal and less than £50 at Heinie Haynes.

No, more 'medical' than magic, the two sections wouldn't need to go together again.

Can anyone recommend somewhere in central London where I can get a nice clean job on a Brita water bottle, cut in two and a large hole drilled in the base? If someone on here can do it, can pay in traditional forum currency of beers. Or cash if preferred.

Mindhorn - went to see that not expecting very much, given the reviews. Found it to be very funny, laughed out lot a lot. Definitely worth going to see.

Last week I saw:
The Handmaiden - very enjoyable, some good performances and great cinematography.
The Lost City of Z - not bad, not good, a bit ponderous.
The Happiest Day in the Life of Olli Mäki - a very nice little film, really liked it and my film of the week.

I didn't see Fury Road when it first came out, but have booked for the Prince Charles, so doubly excited.

Just back from seeing Napoleon at the Royal Festival Hall. Wow. The film was stunning, and Carl Davis conducting his own score with the Philharmonia Orchestra made it one of the best cinematic experiences I've ever had in some 40 years of film going.

FUCK! Bill from Borough is a friend of mine...used to me my best friend for a time actually.

Renegade Force, with Michael Rooker and Robert Patrick.

It is a huntsman's canteen, missing the flask. The silver case is for a sandwich.

I rode a Brox around town for a time in 1998, working for a Kiwi called Graeme, who is still big in pedicabs I believe. Back then he had a contact with for Red Star. The Brox was pretty good to ride, but could be a bugger when fully loaded, up Pentonville Road for example.

I was looking to buy something from Nomos but was put off by the £ price being much higher than the Euro equivelent, but AFAIK this is due to differential pricing by Nomos rather than being due to tax, duty, VAT etc.

Not quite rammed, but a tap to get me to stop, I'm not stopping for anyone in a car after getting punched in the face for doing so last time, respond is good;

Someone 'tapped' my back wheel once, so I got off and threw my bike on the bonnet of his Jag. Fisticuffs ensued.

Whereabouts are you? I'd suggest London Scooters in SE1 - they are usually open Saturday mornings, but as it is a bank holiday weekend probably best to check first - 020 7378 1667.

I wouldn't recommend it. 'Breaking the beading' is the difficult bit. Some places might put the tyre on a bare rim for you cheaply .

Sports bike usually have tubeless tires - they can be changed by hand, but it is very hard work without the tools found in a bike workshop.

I'd definitely avoid FWR. I'd had some poor service from them a couple of times, but the last time I used them they made a serious mistake. I was working as a courier and had a rear tire replaced. The next day, whilst a work, I noticed that the the rear axle was loose and the nut that should have been holding it on was missing. Fortunately I noticed after a few gentle miles 'in town', rather than having the wheel lock up on the motorway.

Happy with the service at Essential Rubber.

Probably due to the prostitutes being on zero-hours contracts.

Try my Stuart on 07956 470379 - I used him for a move 2 years ago and would happily do so again. Also recommendations on the London Se1 website:

Quite a 'complex' story, but it I really liked it - the best film I have seen this year.

At less than £15 in total, there would be no VAT or excise duty (and no Parcelforce fees) on that.
