Funnily enough, after the sailing club debacle, I now have 10 of those Schrader valve dust caps!

Apparently the Channel Islands are not part of the UK or the EU

The one thing that always amazes me is how manufacturers of puncture repair kits never include a key or 'spanner' for the valve. Even those posh multi tools rarely have them. Two weeks ago, we opened 3 new puncture kits at my sailing club in an effort to find something to remove the valve, no joy.

My problem is that I don't want speed, just power for hill climbing. My legs are not very good these days and easily get worn out, so I need assistance all the time, not just on hills.

I believe I was liking the fact that the UK is not totally xenophobic, sorry for any misunderstanding, but I have a shocking case of flu at the moment and I definitely am not thinking with any clarity.

From one of the tweets, they seem to think that is an electronic bike.

A few years ago, I saw something like one parked in Llanidloes.

In theory, a market should deal with the over pricing by Bosch. But, if people insist on paying high prices, then they set the market.

My best guess is that after Brexit, Italy, Holland then France go. German Banks are in serious trouble apparently. Merkel is on shaky ground. Then will be the time to propose EU Two, just a common market without all the Arch Federalist trappings. Should be a winner.

I see your point, but these are just aspirations, the real world is different. There will always be differences. Education does not guarantee tolerance and understanding.

Makes you think though, doesn't it?

I am getting seriously concerned about security in this country. We can see that France has admitted that its Police and Army are worn out with all the extra guarding duties and they need to recruit a 'Dad's Army 'of reservists. So far, we have been relatively lucky in the UK, but our years of...

Well, even though she was there a long time, she seems to have been a bit of a disaster as Home Secretary.
