    Shop in Birmingham wanted

    Yes, just clicking on the user name at the side of a post brings up the member's profile which has the second item shown as "Start a Conversation". That's the PM route. Though I see that item is missing from your profile since you restricted access. .

    Opinions Please.....?

    Not me, on UK roads I prefer to have throttle control while I'm giving a right turn arm signal. .

    Problem inflating "slimed" tubes

    Seems like the connector recess is probably borderline then, when it meets a borderline inner tube valve the problem occurring. Something Lezyne really need to give attention to. .

    Problem inflating "slimed" tubes

    This is rather odd Jim, since the reviews of your pump all praise it's abilities. I'm wondering if it's the bike's fitted inner tubes that are the problem, the threaded valve tube of the inner tube a bit on the short side and leaving the Schrader insert too far out for the connector? .

    What gadget, product or thing makes your life easier?

    I suppose posting "My car" makes my life easier wouldn't be politically correct in this forum? :rolleyes: Oh alright, the motor in my bike's rear wheel it is then. :p .

    Not as far as we are concerned, as I replied earlier, it's their business to run as they wish. After all, any recent losses have to be balanced against around a hundred years or so of large profits, which in total dwarf the loss. I'm quite sure they are not ashamed of their record. It's so...

    No, as Trex replied, Barclays were not in any way irresponsible in that they were always able to cover their dealings, just as HSBC were too. The problem was exclusively with the two Scottish banking operations, and not for the first time. Remember the pensions debacle of a few years ago when...

    I'm not so sure there is a "we" any more, there certainly isn't in London where well under half of the population is white, British born. Personally I'm happy with this where we are all minorities, but it isn't conducive to a "we" view of Britain and it's future with so many diverse "we" groups. .

    But that's nothing to do with us, how they run their business is their business as long as it doesn't affect us. Of our original five clearing banks, Barclays was always the international bank with much of it's interests overseas, so it was natural for them to short term fund from there. .

    Giant twist express charger flashing?

    If yours is a lithium battery Twist and you haven't charged the battery for a year, the battery has quite possibly failed now. They have to be put on charge at least every three months to stay in good health, a year is far too long. Do you have a meter to check what voltage the battery has...

    In effect they went overseas, or at least their business did. Many were taken over by foreign companies who then either shut them down as unwelcome competition or moved them or their production abroad. Foreign takeovers are the story of so much of our decline, from Cadbury's chocolate to...
