the recovery

I thought the lion release scheme was a roaring success.

As for dear old Tan Gent, is he related to Sun Bronzed Geek God??

i have new evidence that the yeti is alive and well, a bit infirm, decrepit he was captured in the 80s shaved and sent over here on a secret government exchange program.
you can spot the shaved yeti by his splay footed hobble rotund profile and course unkempt tuft of a rag mop hair/beard.
when approached a half pint something malty should be presented, as this calms him down.
the shock, horror and humiliation, bygad is................... an American!
we can for give the not being human bit that is incidental, but a colonial! sorry this is just not on.

on a side note we now have a colony of ring neck parakeets living in the park up the road.

How dare youI USAish indeed. I've never been further west than Land's End and that under strong protest!

Just because you are a secret Lancastrian and have been exposed by your better you cannot make this slur stick! Meanwhile My plot to kill a godling is afoot. Prepare to be haunted by the ghost of Maggie Thatcher as soon as that plot has reached fruition.

I suggest you continue your efforts to evolve into something closer to Homo Sapiens. I'd not go the whole hog in one jump try for Neanderthal at first, that would be challenge enough for any monkey!

i broke some spokes Wednesday

as i went out on the ice today i think a bit of an update and comment on the catrike is in order.

the speed is faster than the ice, the frame stiffness will help with this i think.
the brakes on the ice beat just about every thing on the road, the speed are adequate.
i would defiantly have the wheels tuned by a wheel builder on any new catrike (all my spokes wear slack on the back wheel within 100 miles.
in 9000 miles i have had a brake caliper come off (i have put different bolts in now and had no further problem) the ceramic bearings on one side self destructed after 3000 miles, the wheel completely locked up and i had to be picked up in the car (i have bind them and fitted the factory ones i have noticed no difference in performance with them).
i have only had to replace one cable on the speed(it has thumb shifters ) before i switch the twist shifters on the ice i would eat cables.

I replaced the front wheels on my QNT earlier this year following a series of broken spokes over the last three winters. Now I ride the QNT hard down hills and tend to chuck it around corners so they were under some strain, caused by my not inconsiderable bulk no doubt. (A man must have gravitas after all.) The new wheels are so far in good condition and well worth the cost of replacement IMHO.

The SBGG rides his QNT like a lunatic, practising hedgerow arrivals and riding as you would expect an immortal god to ride. It's a wonder his broken body is not broken a lot more and the trike written off.

you should see me in the wheel chair around the shopping center
the 16" cat wheels feel better in the high speed turns and i out rig a lot on the cat.
i was just surprised that i broke three spokes on such a small sturdy wheel!

I'm not! Try riding like a mortal for a change.
Meanwhile my dastardly brilliant plans to rid the world of an unwanted godling are a foot. The wax image is nearly complete and the next step involves invocations and spells. Lucky it's me spelling and not the SBGG!

i am coordinator for the union of small gods and demigods, what you are proposing may breach the rule book and bring in to effect the statuesque, clause re custom and practice, with overtime implications.
i have a proforma e mail, all i have to do is fill in the blanks and we could have a walk out on your hands.

 

[n-ick]

Is that a one SSG walk out?
You could acheive same by turning mirrors to face t'wall.
Is there no end to your perspicacity ?

He's well known for that Nick. Or he would be if he knew what it meant.

 

[Speicher]

Does he know what inconspicuous means?

 

[byegad]

Know?? He couldn't even spell it.

 

[byegad]

You see Speicher some of us are educated.

Before I went to school I wasn't educated, now eye R it.
