This is a straight lift from the meeting between two of the three biggest numpties on the planet. Brexidiots will get all moist at some of the love scenes: The other numpty seems far too busy supporting 'Brexit' on this Pedelecs thread to keep up with the latest material about his fantasy...

I note the point about open borders which doesn't quite gel with the Brexidiot notion. I am also conscious of Google's position on paying their fair share of tax in the UK. You may remember this...

Tillson, you really ought to think before you punch those keys. It is not me who is responsible for the inconsistencies emerging between the government's public posturing and the message being broadcast by its media wing. I have simply drawn attention to it. I stand by everything I have ever...

When one considers that people outside of the UK get to read or hear UK news, how embarrassing it is that a damning leaked government memo should make the BBC news pages on the internet. The embarrassing part is in the fact that the memo reveals there is still no 'plan' with regard to 'Brexit'...

A friend has passed me a copy of the letter Boris Johnson will deliver on behalf of the incumbent UK government to the US President-elect on assuming office. 'To the citizens of the United States of America, in light of your failure to elect a competent President of the USA and thus to govern...

Now be honest - are you overdue a trip to Specsavers?:) Tom

Wow! I love that one.....I don't understand it but it sounds good! It's a new one on me and there must be a description somewhere of how to do it but I haven't found it yet.o_O Tom

Yes Andy, that is the case with some but others have a flip-up seat arrangement to facilitate battery removal. Crockers described the view of many with the models which require seat removal and I too would find that rather tiresome. To be fair, I think some allow in-situ charging but not...

For normal cycling purposes Andy, it isn't particularly important but for mudplugging or the kind of high-speed downhilling that some like to indulge in, there may be different requirements to do with grip and balance that don't apply in leisure/utility usage. For fairly heavy machines that are...

If you are considering the Haibike range, that suggests you have a large budget at your disposal. The full range these days of Haibike's offerings is actually enormous so I wish you luck picking the right one for your needs, which must place reliability towards the top of your criteria as a...

Every single word of this post is true but for those so steeped in their bigoted right-wing beliefs in the ongoing class war, they will never agree with your explanation 'flecc'. Once again, I see (and I hope I'm not alone), how badly our British history has been presented for decades in our...

There could be some merit in that notion - Toyota does it with Lexus, (and gets away with it!), Nissan does it with the Infinity brand though perhaps less successfully. The alternative is to become multi-franchise and move away from the 'one trick pony' set-up. I guess, though, that Hatti...

Even at the new price, I'm bound to say the Big Bear model has a lot going for it, especially for heavyweight riders. Unfortunately, it is a very heavy bike at around 26kgs so it isn't the easiest machine to manoeuvre on to high-mounted cycle carriers, even if the weight is within the...

I think some readers could do with acquiring a better balanced selection of news material than simply the mainstream stuff aimed at simpletons. Here's an example of a different take on events from a source with a minority audience who can say what he wants without fear of losing his well-paid...

That description in my experience is absolutely spot-on! Tom

It's 71 years since WW2 but I'm not sure we have learned much of any value over those years. This chap, who was actually half-English understood but didn't live long enough to see the second world war. Tom

The human species, unlike other animals, does not learn from its mistakes. History demonstrates how we keep repeating the same follies with enormous cost, usually to the young of the species most particularly. Sadly, very few politicians achieve university degrees in History, preferring to...

These people have guns and voted for Trump. Is there anything else you need to know about American culture?:eek: Tom

We may even get another government before 2020! Tom
