Hi, can now report that it does not have mudguard mounts.

Sizewise, it's probs suitable for someone 5'10 upwards.

John Holt RIP, true legend.

What's going on with the Fail link? - ain't nobody clicking on that.

Encouraging news from Florida, where shooting unarmed black children has just been made illegal.

Golly.

Rascist.

Poor fucker can't even get some support from the Torygraph BTLers. I liked this one:

I really do not understand all this calling for licences, mirrors etc. The misguided motorist's logic seems to be:

1) For safety reasons, all cycles should be equiped with mirrors.
2) It is dangerous for cyclists to cycle 2 or 3 abreast so bikes should be fitted with a side seat and back seat(s) so that other cyclists can travel as passengers and remove road congestion
3) In wet conditions, having only 2 wheels is dangerous. All bikes should therefore be equipped with 4 wheels as standard.
4) For additional comfort, the bike should have a roof
5) Cyclists go so much slower than the other traffic so should be equipped with motors to propel them faster.
6) Cycles should be renamed cars.

£80 000 on a number plate. Reality TV. Dating a Third Division footballer. Beauty salons. Doing payday loan ads. The emptiness of that life.

Just Maroushed in Kensington at lunchtime, amazing falafel wrap. Used to love it when I worked on Edgware Rd, every other building is an excellent Lebanese restaurant.

I don't actually know - won't be home till the weekend, will check then and report back...

Yeah, but it was Cycle2Work - felt I had to buy something...

le sigh, le price drop, le bump

Long story short, I convinced myself I needed another bike, and I didn't. Therefore, there's a rather beautiful, but completely unridden bike sat looking at me accusingly, and it must go. Bought it a couple of years ago, and haven't even taken the plastic off it or attached pedals. It's embarrasing.

It's sized XL, though that's Italian sizing - the measurement details are in this link, http://www.actionbikes.co.uk/wilier-toni-bevilacqua-steel-black-2014.htmlwhich show this year's (identical) model priced at £645. This considered, I reckon £290 (final drop) seems pretty fair.

Last time, they trimmed my nose. The outside, not the nostrils. I died a little.

Won't someone please think of the billionaires?

The BBC has denied any intended reference, saying the car was bought by a member of the production team and was entirely coincidental.

Oh, just fuck right off BBC, you pack of lying cunts. We deserve better.

...and the FCA gets to pretend it isn't a paper tigger for a few days

They've signed up to a compromise agreement to avoid a class action suit. They're trumpeting round the City that it'll only be a loss of £35m, which goes to show how stacked their interest rates are.

Internet diagnosis gives Plantar Fasciitis. It's noticeable in the morning, and when running, but not painful/uncomfortable enough to make me even considering stopping.

I plan on ignoring it, continuing to run (as long as it doesn't get worse) and working on stretching and core strength.

If it's PF, it's likely to get worse, and it's mortifying as a runner to get it, as it's mainly a fat person's condition. There are some decent mitigation exercises you can use:

Calf raises on the edge of a step
Rolling a golf ball under your foot while sat at your desk

What eventually cured mine was wearing a strap that kept the foot at 90 degrees to the leg while sleeping - uncomfortable, but really effective.

I'm not around da Wharf right now, but Davy's is usually best bet for decent beer and not spending too much time at the bar. Also, Canteen is usually largely empty for some reason.

Woudn't try that, you might accidentally win.

fyi ladies - I believe the dinosaur golf is on a Groupon right now. I've deleted my email about it, but it's probably findable.

I'm thinking yes.

Having lived in both, it's about 56-44 in Belfast's favour.

You don't know me pal, so step lightly.

lolz
