  1. Jeeeesus Christ @Pedro the olds have conked out AGAIN. We have to get some livelier souls involved
  2. I am aware of that. As they age they have a tendency to over heat too But I have no intention of carrying two lumpy things and riding with (close) to the right pressure is generally more of a concern. If you carry a tubeless repair kit then one inflation should get you to safety. Or at least give enough time to recharge from a usb.
  3. Sounds awesome. I wouldn’t waste it on them.
  4. Yep you are Basic maintenance on appliances, devices and batteries. Stick it on your calendar set an alert and plug it in. Or add it to the check it’s charged before you leave list. Thats my preference.
  5. I completely agree, it’s just plain wrong! I have made lasagne with it. More than one iteration. I’ve said nothing so they’re no aware of what they don’t like, left long gaps before having another go but no, they have an aubergine radar that says NO Some people are sensitive to alkaloids and aubergine has a few so thats all I can think is skewing things. Solanine is a thing apparently. I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t tried to sneak so many delicious variations past them They’re no tomato lover either
  6. It charges from a usb (ie your battery) and so far it’s held its charge absurdly well. Charged once in over 6 months but used an estimated 5-7 times. Although I should add somehow neither bikes had lost much pressure so it only had a few psi to do on each each time.
  7. I love this but I am the only one in my family that does which is disappointing so I don’t make it. With aubergine I even tried the old trick of salt and batter on the veg round the table Teppanyaki table. I even tried peeling it first but they just genuinely don’t like aubergine. Philistines. They’re everywhere.
  8. Ok no sterling pound coins available. Looks like my wallet is almost fully euro A fiver is all I have for comparison but you get the idea. It’s smaller than a five pound note but bigger than 5 euros. Obviously the depth is missing but you can kind of get that from the pics.
  9. Here you go @Pedro No pound coins Thanks. There is a market here twice a week with real produce But todays choices were dictated by external factors so the tiring supermarket won.
  10. I’m glad you said that because I didn’t want to post I’ve tried them and they’re not very good.
  11. Ok but I’m going to check a euro against the size of a pound coin first so theres proper perspective. Off to search for coins.
  12. They’re about triple the size of peppers available in the UK UK supermarket sizes, shapes and ages are very strictly regulated. Everything is uniform in size and must last forever in a fridge. I’m talking weeks. Consequently everything is picked and shipped woefully small and under ripe and the flavour is hugely compromised as a consequence. When I said I’d move here for the tomatoes alone I wasn’t kidding
  13. Yes but at the moment it looks bigger and more unwieldy than my little pump that can to both things so I wanted to see some perspective. Like the pic I took for someone else earlier of the Chernobyl peppers in the supermarket Don’t reckon they’d do as good a job on your tyres.
  14. Holy crap batman I thought I had at least another week!
  15. Need something for perspective. It looks like an unwieldy bundle at the moment.
  16. Thats so weird I was just thinking he should come back. I’d even unblock him to see the smiling skeleton playing in the water.. so long as he can keep a grip on some of the other insulting stuff, if not.. He must miss you Pete?
  17. Back from Baza urr I mean Albox nope I mean Motril. It was f’in heaving. I’ve never seen it like that ever. I was there for the Spanish equivalent of rush hour and it is Saturday but even so. Think there must be some sort of festival going on, lots of noise last night (until I removed my bionic ears) and for the first time ever I had to carry my shopping more than 5 metres Guessing it’s something religious and maybe Easter based?
  18. Oh and the bike basher is back!! Well maybe true but 13 of us rode Himalayans in extremely testing conditions for days on end through all-sorts and made it to Everest. Would a nice little road Honda? We’ll never know, they don’t like to get wet
  19. Yer that last pill was one too many.
  20. If you were chewing wasps as well yer.
  21. After I get my arse off this forum and on the bike down to the supermarket. I've so far managed to delay for over 8 hours. I think that might be a record for me I can see Mr Slowlys face when he arrives tomorrow, everything's shut and theres f'all to eat or drink. Looks a bit like Boboneleg in the rain
  22. Wot you on about I am a peasant. Just one that accidentally read a book! Any rate Petes not talking about when you come out, he want's a booking for his client now
  23. Ignore the knuckledraggers I haven't no and from the looks of that photo I'm not sure I should I have read about Franco's stolen babies. His policy of taking babies and children from their parents (often immediately after being born in hospital and telling the parents they were dead) and placing them with more 'appropriate' families, a policy that carried on well after his death on to the 90's. Horrifying. They've certainly have a lot of shit to unpack, possibly too much.
