Oh what a coincidence. Neither am I.
I have better things to do in life than standing in queues.

Ahhh man, I broke the plastic pin in mine for locking it in place etc... and now it's staying up until I can fashion a new one.

Are we in need of a domestic sub forum for all our bin news and washing line news?

Mr Amazon arrived this morning with my new cassette & cassette hold tool, no wonder the Aldi one broke I had to get a 18" breaker bar to undo the old one.
I'm not sure exactly how tight 4NM is but it certainly was a lot tighter than that I'm sure

Shouldn't a cassette be tightened to about 45Nm?

Yes, should be 40Nm, or Shimano cassette says that. 4 is less than carbon seat post. Give a whole new meaning to the word, "spiining out" if only done to four!!!!
If so, I could report that when we moved into this house, the whirlygig was cemented into the ground!
Eventually, I got around to splitting the cement, cleaning up the shaft and making a proper hole so it can be removed when not in use..

I'm currently thinking about going out to the shops. The theory is that everybody will be queuing to get into Primark, leaving the Aldi all nice and quiet.

Yes it's right. When you unlock one to take off you feel a definite crack as it comes loose. I think if you know how things 'feel' going for the resistance you feel with a three inch alan key at 8Nm and feeling that with a 18 inch cassette tool won't see you far wrong..
Nobody do the maths on that please. It's about right for me. 🧐

I have had lunch and I have put my green garden waste wheelie bin out ready for collection tomorrow.
Has gone rather dark here, so perhaps a thundery shower in the offing. Better scoot off to my neighbour with his beers then.

You mean air the dirty laundry and dish the dirt, in public.

Diving out for a quick early lunch time spin on the MTB was a good idea. Showers on and off this afternoon since getting back.

I am also refraining from any commercial activity today.
So all the cool kids can go there?
