So my colleague tells me his gears developed a slight issue on his commute this morning...

[Andrew_Culture]

But he's an engineer so I'm sure this will be called an improvement...

 

[dan_bo]

Did he put a change request in for that?

 

[Andrew_Culture]

I expect he'll claim someone else signed his drawings...

 

[Cheddar George]

Obviously a design engineer and not a maintenance engineer.

Obviously a design engineer and not a maintenance engineer.

Ha ha, bang on, YES!

Hands up who here is from Altrincham and just got in touch through the helper system on my company's website

[dan_bo]

sorry just browsing.

 

[Andrew_Culture]

Oh you're more than welcome to! I'm not the only person who monitors that system though

 

[dan_bo]

well it came up with your chisseled fizzog- sorry if I dropped you in it.

A "slight issue" ...

A chain tool will make that an easy fixed single speed.

At least his wheel's OK. I've had similar happen when riding up the snake to manchester from ladybower. Big ring- small cog fubar stuffed the mech in the back wheel. No mobile signal.

I was stood there with my thumb out for ooooh three minutes when a van pulled up that was going to Salford. Dropped me off at the end of our street
