I suspect you're the glue that holds this thread together -- it'll die without you posting from work

Har-de-har-har....I'm off to Port douglas in a month, so it could be coming out sooner rather than later to help me avoid any comparisons to the Collingwood footy team at pre-season.

That's amusing, the mods renamed the thread so he edited the first thread to remove the link and then added a new thread with the old title! Classic.

Either that or get one of the mods to have a word with the offender...there's even an antipodean mod.

It's his firewall at work....one offence and you're locked out like Greg Miller trying to trade Ty Zantuck to Essendon.

Average form, that.

So, I emailed Hitch, but as I suspected....no luck.
These were his last words before he "died"
:
Thanks for the effort!...unfortunately once this 'web marshall' picks up an 'address', it won't let go without being instructed to by the IT dept.........& as I'm s'posed to be working!...........I'll continue to contribute after hours...damn, I was enjoying myself too!...thanks again for your efforts,
cheers,

Shimano is more user friendly, that's fo shizzo. (Maybe less so with the new 10v, though...)
Home maintenance and spare parts have always been cheaper. Plus the $$$ for Campag isn't really justifiable in terms of a performance benefit. If I was paying my own way through a Euro campaign, Shimano all the way.
I'll have to check out the poll....some of those seppos get so fired up it's hilarious.
(yep.....sad days indeed. We'll have to make up for the loss of quality with much more quantity.)

Hitchy reckons that address should work, but that "pecker", grampy, has put "pawn" back on a new thread, so Hitchy might get shut out of the new address. So...someone's gotta dob that pecker into the moderators to get hte spelling changed; I've gotta go have a fukn root canal.
