That's interesting - what range have you been using? I used 7700 for a few years; bearings ran well but the freehub internals proved to be pathetically short lived.

This is good news; it also shows how valuable to us the CTC are.
A lobbying group that genuinely acts for the benefit of not only its members but others too.

PM sent to you

I fucking hate New Labour and all that shit, and all the shitheads involved.
Brown's bedwetting speech the other day exemplifies their attitude - "we've simply got to win, bollocks to policy/manifesto/political beliefs, we need to win, cos that's central to my job description and future pay rise entitlement"
I thought a political party was created to reflect and support a particular segment of society's wants and needs, not simply to win win win.
How naive of me.

Park. Ours.
Now fook off back to London.

That is fucking genius. Jammed between the shit flavourless lager and pointless rubbery idiot food for extra artistic merit.

Don't use a jigsaw running against a fence/straight edge... might work out nice and straight, but 99% likely not to.
Pay someone to do it, it'll save you a world of bother.

with my mum / niece

Are you from Norfolk?

Buy cheap, buy twice...

Hello.
I've got a pile of about 80-90 minidiscs that are either going in landfill or to someone who wants them.
I'll post them, or you can come and get them from Hove.
They've all got music on but I assume that's not an issue? Anyway, some of it's good stuff, no boy band pop chart shite.

So if by some freak chance someone somewhere still uses them, PM me.
Ta.

^^ Oh think of the children!
Ha ha what a crock of shit.

No,not ad hominem, just explaining, not very well, my earlier assertion that I think the anti-homoeopathy argument is one best reserved for general 'anti-everything but what I do' arguments.
The 'you' in that sentence wasn't you, Tynan, in particular, so please don't jump so quickly to use the ad hominem device - it itself is as dull as an ad hominem argument.

Myself I'm not an advocate of homoeopathy or acupuncture, and I'm also deeply sceptical about over the counter pharmaceutical sold like sweeties, but I've been spending a few hours each week for the last 3 years sitting in a med-school canteen.
The people I've been earwigging on are the GPs of the future, and I'm still in shock at the some of the smug hand-me-down bullshit that rises out of their weird rants - hence my weird rantings here.

No, I don't see that you are somehow stealthily working with pharmaceutical giants to poison our minds.
It's simply the kind of daft posturing argument (often used by evangelical anti-vegetarians) that seeks merely to patronise and belittle their target victim.
If a person wishes to treat their cancer homoeopathically, give me a reason why they shouldn't.
It's their choice, the homoeopath isn't consciously trying to kill them after all, whether they are misguided or not.
Personally, I think if you're that concerned about people's well being, you should be concentrating on a less benign target.
Or maybe you don't really give a monkeys about the well being of people who take different types of medical remedy (as if you did you wouldn't waste time on harmless sugar-pill takers), but are merely using their plight as a sounding board or mouth-piece for an intelligent-sounding ego-boosting argument, that as mentioned above, serves only to belittle one party whilst also being quite self-aggrandising.

That the mind is a powerful tool, but that claiming a benefit in excess of placebo is fraudulent, and can kill.

And homoeopathic remedies don't do that (kill people), but even if you regard them as fraudulent I fail to see the why one would waste so much time dismissing them.
Pharmaceutical drugs on the other hand are worthy of much more close inspection that is so far being avoided by the discussion of harmless sugar pills...

Ha ha that is a bit of a better warm up act for sure

I had the pleasure of seeing them in London as part of the Blood Sugar Sex Magik tour in 1992, supported by, ahem, Henry Rollins.
It was fucking brilliant.

I'd like to know what 'negatives' egging Griffin achieved? I can't think of one.
If your view of the group that did the throwing changed, I'd begin to think you're far too easily led.
People ask 'what it did achieve?', but I don't think it was a particularly backward step.
He has the right to voice his views, and we should have the right to throw harmless missiles at him. I would extend that to all bullshitting political aspirants from all parties.

Hi Hilary, did you get my PM about the 8 speed hub?

http://www.londonfgss.com/search.php?searchid=3063418

It's a very good book, that's why people rate it. If you want to learn how to build wheels there's a lot worse places to start.
I wouldn't bother with the home-made jig though.

PM's for Hilary and La Lanterne Rouge

Anyone else got one to offer?
Cheers

I laughed when Griffin (and his half-witted acolytes) described his egging as 'undemocratic'.
He is unfortunately a legally elected politician, so the fact that people were able to throw eggs at him was a perfect example of the freedoms that democracy allows in action. It was an excellent demonstration of democracy at work.
He's a total cunt, and anyone who supports him also qualifies for that description in my book.

Hate is a bit strong for this one but I'm slightly puzzled by the vast number of people on my facebook age and various other forums getting excited about the new iphone. IT'S A FUCKING PHONE FOR FUCKSAKE.

Does it allow me to phone people - check
Does it allow me to text people - check
Does it have a few games to entertain me while I take a dump - check

Surely that is all that is required. Can people really not live their lives fully without being connected to facebook, twitter, ebay, their email and whatever other websites tickle their fancy 24 hours a day?

How else would they be able to take part in anti-consumerist discussions if their phone isn't capable of internet browsing?
