I got a light to go over the dining table. The accent wall behind it will be something close to Tiffany blue, so it should pop nicely.

I like the idea, but they really dropped the ball by calling it Oi and not having the bell produce an extremely loud voice sample of an irate Australian shouting "OI!" instead

I'd have it shout Oi a few times, but the 3rd ring shouts "Get out the fukin' way ya kant!"

Stick with the prod. It will stun your opponents or knock them unconscious. A nonlethal takedown is always the most silent way to eliminate resistance.

Now before everyone starts shouting that it's a piece of poo poo, don't worry I know from getting an Apollo as a kid that even for Halfords shitte that their bloody awful.
But I picked it up because I'm sick of sitting in traffic jams at the end of every day shift and I'm sure I can ride the 1.7 miles home quicker than it takes to sit in a car.
So I thought just pick up the cheapest new bike I can find and give it a try and I'm sure since I'll only be using twice a day for around ten days of the month it'll survive.

It's a dining room simulation at his school where they have to cook a 3-course meal with 3-4 choices for each on a menu they create, and have the other students act as servers and line cooks under them. They have a room that's basically set up as a small restaurant dining room. His went really well, it was a bunch of people from his family, some friends, me, and a bunch of people from his teacher's family too.

He went crazy when I have him the knife afterwards too

As someone who used to work for Halfords many moons ago, some of the Apollo range are actually fairly decent bikes. Back when I was there, the Apollo Gradient was a drat fine bike for the money, fully rigid, weirdo looking frame but the parts that hung off it were actually solid, worked well and didn't need to be adjusted every other week unlike some other bikes.

Also Halfords gets points for naming a bike 'Apollo Creed' which is a joke nobody ever got...

If stuff goes wrong with it, take it straight back to the shop and they'll look it over. There were a few spot buy bikes we got in that were outright garbage, dangerous bags of poo poo that I refused to sell. The Excel that used to be a big seller (blue y-frame full suspension thing) went from being produced in the far East to Poland and when that happened, quality dropped dramatically, particularly in terms of braking, a fairly important aspect of bike safety. I took to doing warranty repairs on those and fitting £30 Shimano v-brake sets, decent ones, until the manager took note that the ones fitted from the factory were utter shite. So please take it back if poo poo starts to go wrong, don't kick up too much of a fuss but know that your bike should work and not need constant fettling to keep it sweet.

As a fat unfit person I'd say anything under ten miles is OK with a granny bike or whatever (unless there's a lot of hills in which case you need gwars unless you're fit).

I just bought a floor squeegee and the devious salesperson almost got me to.buy a plastic bag. Like a plastic bag is very useful for carrying home something that's over a meter long.

Beware Claes Ohlson's evil staff!

Also an elderly man was asking them about bed protectors "for accidents" and they didn't have anything like that and he said he had no idea where to get one :(

Rule of acquisition #111:
Treat people in your debt like family...exploit them.




I used to only buy ~$15 convenience store sunglasses, but a few years ago I bought some Von Zipper not-Wayfarers and they were very nice, so when I lost those at the beach (actually a restaurant at the beach, I called a day later and they said they didn't have them :() I bought Von Zipper Aviators. I figured it was time for a change and I got these for ~$90 instead of $150. Ray-Ban Clubmaster Tortoise Shell, green lenses. I like them but they're heavier than my Aviators and the lenses are much smaller, which is mildly annoying. I think these look significantly better, though. So I'll probably stick to Aviators at the beach and these otherwise.
