I've been having fun adjusting some cones on a front wheel . Adjust it up and it locked , slackened it off a bit and it seemed okay , placed it in the front forks and spun it , wobble wobble! I could see play on one side . I removed the wheel and tightened it up again . I did it umpteen times. I know that one side had a bit of pitting but I hadn't expected that amount of fun ! I eventually managed to get it to run free and not wobble .

You're not alone, I recently stripped cleaned and greased the hubs on my Eastway and every time I ride the cone adjustment changes and I have to readjust, I'm obviously doing something wrong somewhere but I can't see where.

I have just potentially missed out on a cheap spare derailleur because the Ebay app on my phone refused to show the 'confirm bid' page

We've always sneaked veg into stuff we've cooked in the past for the in-laws. My FIL would have refused to eat a cottage pie if he knew there wasn't just beef, but two tins of tomatoes, shredded carrots, diced mushrooms, peas (that's the only greens he would eat).... he loved it. We never told him or MIL what was in it - it was over 50% veg...

Sounds like the kind of person those meat + veg sausages are aimed at. That's also a sneaky way to get veg into picky eaters.

Fortunately for me, neither I nor mum have a problem with shovelling veg down the hatch.

I love veg.... we just cooked the food, then gave it to them as it was - no complaints.... My Teens (adults) don't like mushrooms..... oh don't you..... it's diced into lots of food we eat....

I think that wins the Sneak Factor Stakes

Green & Black milk chocolate with Anglesey sea salt. Don't mind if I do...

Hmmm...

Just what is that supposed to mean?

 

[Reynard]

I need a wee. And then I'll want another

@KnittyNorah, on ADB-S, have a gander over the US. A balloon at 65,000 plus feet. Shown in red, last checked it was west of Idaho going up slowly.

 

[Reynard]

Don't balloons always go up?

 

[Reynard]

Anyways, off to bed go I.

Nunnight one and all xxx

True, but how many do you see at over 65,000 feet?

By the way google has me down south, again.

Balloons do go down, and if it is a bumpy landing you might fall out with the Pilot.

Morning y'all
I really need to make more effort to be awake earlier so I can get some miles in.
Looks a bit non descript outside.

Same here. I used to love my very early morning spins while it was quiet but taking longer and longer to fall asleep now.
