Smart arse barristers on minimum wage?

Everything. I am one of those hoarding types that has only 5 cubic inches of living space left.

The pub in the village expressed an interest in buying some from me if I had a good crop. I hope their customers like tomatoes!

I now have 75 tomato plants!

Well, much as I'd love to drive my new car somewhere I have an ear infection and feel a bit wobbly, so won't risk either driving or cycling. My life is strewn with cowpats from the Devil's own herd!

My Nokia 3310 can do that? (And I'm not joking!)

Also consider that a lot of the stuff about for low prices is counterfeit, often very difficult to tell apart from the original without careful comparison.

The tyre contact patch does indeed move unless you are doing one long continuous trackstand, and that movement is akin to the movement of your palm in the pub trick. The principle of control by shifting a heavy mass above point and the laws of physics are the same in both cases. Move that mass...

Indeed, you shift yourself on the bike and the bike beneath you. I teach these skills.

I made the conscious decision to get the Subway to avoid getting lumbered with horrible budget suspension or Wang tang woo sung Shimano...

A friendly bit of rib tickling about the type of music.

Brown shoes with a blue pullover?

I thought this had started early, but it was my neighbours car alarm going off.

A footnote to this. Mrs CTEC has a hospital appointment today. In these unpleasant snowy conditions her weighty, ultra-torguey electric car on road tyres was not the best tool for the job. So my ickle 2008 on its 3-peaks snow rated all weather tyres and with its "snow-motion" traction control...
