Oh, he'll rant and rave at the wrong bloke, sometime soon. These tw4ts usually get sorted out.

Just as well they didn't call it "Peds and Pedemen", as I suspect the sales would have marginal, to say the least.

Indeed; it's somehow comforting to know that, however weird one is, there are weirder people out there. :)

I hope there's nobody stumbling around the woods at night looking for Uranus.

I found a couple of 20 year old Walkmen - one genuine Sony ( but when they went plastic) and one rip-off clone, both worked fine, but I'd never stored them with batteries in. Actually, I was hard-pushed to find a cassette to test them. The oldest bit of kit off hand, is a 1952-ish Murphy B52...

Recall issued for some of the SRAM RED 22 and S-700 SRAM road hydraulic brake recall ? stop use immediately - BikeRadar Seems like it's a total cock-up of some eejit designer not knowing that some materials aren't as pliable in the cold (DUH!).

Aliexpress is just a webfront for hundreds of smaller businesses behind it - AE, while not perfect, are not responsible for shoddy goods and dishonest sellers (nor dishonest buyers, come to that) and you have to accept some crap along with the gold. I've had no problems in many transactions via...

It reeks of amateurism and dredges up memories of some of the early importers of foreign makes into the UK. Forty-odd years ago, the Japanese car makers learned well from the debacle of foreign makes in the UK and paid particular attention to spares backup - some parts might have cost more than...

Glad to hear it's still active. I have a 1953 Linhof camera which is just as tight and nice to use as the day it left the factory. In fact, it's so good I feel no urge at all to move to a later model. I also have a 1937/8 model which is nearly as good, although more of an orphaned format (but...

Ditto - There's a Casio calc kicking around here which is on its original button cell. If I can find it to look, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it's a mercury based cell, as those were incredibly long-lived in cameras of the day. I occasionally buy a 30 year old camera with a good battery...

Ah; how that takes me back. Ten years of doing exactly that on the M25, M1, M6 five days a week. Never had so much as a scratch from it, either. It's only worrying when you're not on the bike - bear in mind the gaps are much larger than they appear and good throttle control is your friend, not...

Hysterical ball oks.

There's any number of people re-building batteries. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=re+cell+batteries+uk&t=ironbrowser Mostly specialising in power tools, but some will do bespoke jobs. It's not rocket science and obviously their insurance companies don't have an issue with it. (I presume they are...

The seller is an idiot.

I recently unearthed an old laser printer that had been retired after many years service because it needed an expensive drum. I found that New Old Stock drums were being sold for peanuts as the demand for them at their outrageous prices had plummeted and many were being put out of use - a...
