My wedding ring was lost in the sand of West Sands in St Andrews. My Father in Law saved the day when he managed to find it. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13930#post-172320 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 18:22:41 +0000 geordiefatbloke 172320@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@steveo don't know if this is any help but a cautionary tale for you all. I recently "lost" my wedding ring. I thought it had dropped off when taking my gloves off so hunted high and low and couldn't find it anywhere. Turned up a week later in the bottom of my panniers, must have slid off when I was rummaging around for something just before setting off. Much relief all round I can tell you. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13930#post-172304 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 16:24:54 +0000 Darkerside 172304@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I thought you'd been here forever, IWRATS. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13930#post-172258 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 13:23:50 +0000 I were right about that saddle 172258@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@fimm</p> <p>But.....October 5, 2010 (4 years)...?</p> <p>Good thread though, don't know how I missed it...must have been when I was on JUNIOR KICKSTART. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13930#post-172256 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 13:22:33 +0000 SRD 172256@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>you possibly also need to know that we used to have a series of threads labelled 'cyclist down' </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13930#post-172250 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 13:10:29 +0000 fimm 172250@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>IWRATS I think you are too new to the forum to get the reference to glasses in the canal.<br /> <a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8600">This thread</a> explains all. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13930#post-172228 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 12:03:25 +0000 I were right about that saddle 172228@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"Forum buy?"</p> <p>I'm up for both that and inviting her to do a reading at PY. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13930#post-172225 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 12:00:54 +0000 Darkerside 172225@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hey, good Amazon reviews:</p> <p>"Henrietta took me on her roller coaster experience.
