Jan and Klodi's Party Bus - part II **off topic discussion**

Fighting Tao

Went for the California sky blue for the new addition to the family. Already have 105 brake calipers on order because the stock unbranded ones are poor.

Are you a member of the Spencer, Rogue or can you do them separately. I'm in SV beside them, but the classes are not included in membership nor at times I can generally make.

No, I'm not a member. I guess the instructor just rents the studio space for the hour class and you pay him directly for the term. The class is Monday lunchtime 1.15 to 2.00.

Had a real world meeting with one of the fancier eBikes today. It was a Cube, with a Bosch motor. As I was cycling to work, at a fair clip I noticed the very casually dressed guy a bit ahead of me was freewheeling every so often, and doing only a bit of pedalling and getting further ahead. The speed at the lights too.

Made me think that if I had a commute longer than 25 k, I'd probably get one, and my dad would probably benefit from one too.

I've seen this gentleman on one of my spins, one fox on his shoulder and the other on a leash. I seriously thought I'm hallucinating.

There used to be someone living around Kilternan with a pet fox on a lead.

Weirdly, the photo of Patsy Gibbons from Thomastown and Grainne the vixen doesn't show (for me) on Weepsie's post.

Looks like he was caught pooping on yer mans shoulder.

All I can see is the future star of the live action version of the Fantastic Mr.Fox.

Slow night, isn't it?

Lots of outrage about poor George Hook. When it was just people on bikes he targeted, that was ok.

College registration today, part of my IT password is n1bike... somebody is trying to tell me something

tomasrojo

This is a verified account, so I guess I can post it:

TW: George Hook. The first time I went on George Hook's show, he asked me (off air) what size bra I wore.

The second time, he told me I had "queer hair" and said, "I don't know why women do that to their hair – I find it incredibly unattractive."

ThisRegard

Why didn't she say something at the time though and make a stand?

tomasrojo

She says that she made a complaint and Newstalk offered to meet her to discuss, but only on the Newstalk premises, which she refused on the grounds that she might meet Hook again.

ThisRegard

Hey excuse for not doing so is pretty poor, what did she think he was going to do to her?

She complains that in her opinion Newstalk don't care about such complaints but she never followed hers up to find out.

Anyway the whole thing is a mess. I've often said on the radio thread that I believe Hook purposely winds people up with his opening monologue, and without having heard the piece, he may have pushed that too far this time. There'll be a concerted effort from everywhere now to have him fired.

tomasrojo

Be a creepy bell-end again, I assume, which I personally would find reasonable grounds to keep away.
