It's ok JT, we all know you're special .

Simmer for a couple of minutes, lightly season then serve.

No, boiling them does help. I usually boil the pads and rotor then stick the pads in a hot oven for 5-10 minutes. Bed them back in and keep your fingers crossed...

I like cake.

567/3 is five hundred and sixty seven thirds. You basically have 567 * 1/3. When you simplify it you're looking for common divisors between the numerator and denominator. In this case that's three and as such 567/3 simplifies to 189. If you had 568/3 you have 568 * 1/3. Compared to the last example you have one extra third left over meaning that you could simplify it to 189 and 1/3. It's kinda like dividing with a remainder.

Nooooooooo.

I'm with him.

In my mind simplifying fractions doesn't mean converting to 4 and a half (or 4.5), it means reducing a fraction to it's simplest form, as Rowan said.

Are they actually removing the way healthcare is paid for (i.e. we no longer pay NI contributions and instead pay for personal health insurance) or are they just looking at privatising certain sectors in order to improve efficiency (in theory) and 'streamline' things?

Do bears shit in the woods? Tarty are by far the best trials shop in the UK, most probably Europe and very possibly the world. Apart from plans of world domination, they will certainly be able to sort you out with a Zoot .

Finally passed my Viva last week so am now officially a Doctor of Engineering. Still work in the wind tunnels at the University of Southampton but am soon to take over the management of the tunnels and take on a bit more of an 'academic' position, supervising a PhD student as well as undergrads.

Old style HS33 Tomacs?

I've yet to go up there, the main reason I haven't been yet being the fact it's over the other side of the M25 which is just a bit of a ballache. Having said that, I would be more tempted to go up if there were basic facilities like Rich mentioned suitable for camping...

Unless you're the US president, quickly approaching re-election but doing really badly in recent polls... Just sayin'.

Don't try and get a good result, just enjoy yourself and meet lots of people. Best advice would be to hook up with someone else who can show you the ropes and you can walk the sections with. Take your time in the sections and try not to rush and don't be too worried if you do worse than you think you're capable of.

He was struggling to keep his balance because the cables were a bit greasy apparently. Was on his 'Bigtime Trial Adventure' thing in South Africa I think- Table Mountain. And yes it's real. Next image, And down.

A lot of them do seem to be cracking at the top tube/seat tube join... not good. If you've got the money, take a look at this. My old bike which is set up really nicely.

But occasionally spreads to people putting any random stuff in their spokes from rizla papers to chocolate wrappers and anything else you fancy.

Well since I was ignored completely I said screw the lot of you and bought a pair of WTB Prowler MX folding tyres (2.3's). They're a bit wider than my old tyres but have a more rounded profile and lower rolling resistance. However they've also got some pretty meaty knobs on them so really give confidence with cornering and seem to bite in on acceleration/deceleration too. And they were only a tenner each...

No worries. Just posted in your wanted thread too- worth a look

Looks in fairly good condition but I still would be looking to pay maybe £550 for it... £950 is way too much in my humble opinion.

Any pics? I wouldn't want to spend more than £400-£500 on something like that unless it's all brand new and virtually unused.

Seems very odd to 'bury him at sea' immediately... Surely some formal identification would be required to make sure it was him. Could've been any one of his many impersonators if there's no proof or evidence. Edit: Ah, ok, having read a bit more it does make some sense.

Usually refers to something which is enforced... They didn't forget to put the 'lawyers lips' on the dropouts or something did they? It may be a minor mis-translation though and that the non compliance is with their own designs- wrong material/treatment or wall thickness used at the factory.
