My suits hang on the rail forlornly, and I wonder if they’ll ever get regular wear again.
That’s the thing – everyone is saving money and time here.

I guess you need the original as created as evidence if it goes to court? Check the bullet points:

important points here are that the footage must be on the original medium, i.e. not copied to a PC, not edited (obvs) and must contain 1-2 minutes either side of the incident.
News of the proposals on
News of the proposals on pavement parking has reached my village Facebook page. Reactions aren’t as positive as you might hope. No grass Verge is safe, no street corner, as “I’ve got no choice”. Have a look at the village bus timetable 1972 – 18 buses a day, including Sunday afternoons.
I’ll get called a snob, etc but I think regular on-Street parking, other than possibly across your own frontage, is anti-social, and pavement parking, I.e.bumping-up the kerb (that is there to tell you not to do exactly that) is completely unacceptable.
Of course, if you’ve got your “hazards” on, that’s a different matter and somehow, my 89 year old mother, one foot amputated in her electric wheelchair, will be able to pass safely after all.

The same drivers doing the all disabled what about-ery? No better way to say “sod all of you” than pavement parking.
Re the cycling on pavements, it’s amazing how conditioned people are to this sort of thing – until in this example it goes too far: https://www.gloucestershirelive.co.uk/news/cheltenham-news/police-crack-down-inconsiderate-drivers-4460799
A Daily Mirror story briefly mentions people parking on residents’ drives in genteel Bourton on the Water.
I’ll be glad to have this legal point laid to rest, although Glos Police seem be cracking on with tickets meantime.

A reminder that kids used to play outside their houses and cars on side streets once were a rare thing…

Here’s the “my 4 mile car journey took 24 minutes” letter.
At 11.30 on Monday morning I exited Coates Road, Thornhill, to join the traffic queue towards the city centre.
Looking right the traffic was backed up to Windhover.
The line of traffic was unending to Six Dials where I left the queue to negotiate the crazy route to meet someone at the Bargate.
The journey took me in total 24 minutes, for less than four miles.
Well done city council.

No, well done to you, A Dadswell – we couldn’t have come this far without you.

It’s high time that these obstructions that just hold up the traffic were removed from our streets – the schools go back in a few days’ time, what will it be like then??
Bet they didn’t have lights either. I mean, it’s a RED CAR, did neither of them see him coming?

IIRC, you don’t need a spacer
IIRC, you don’t need a spacer inboard of the cassette (unless it’s Mavic or there’s an R in the month) so the attached should be what your cassette comprises of. The Ultegra locknut always strikes me as a bit flimsy but it should bite firmly in the threads of the freehub and nip up about after about three turns, at which point there should be no chatter or movement from the cassette.
I don’t see why loose wheel bearings should cause the cassette wobble issue, but you may as well check that the axle is indeed smooth and doesn’t have any play.
