I am going to the counter to give SRD the tubes. 8a.m. To 8.15 a.m. We may well then cycle to PY it is en route. I did have hankchief gels to give in return but after carrying them around (but never managing to handover eg at pop when we were fleetingly together) I ate them on Arran. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18838&page=2#post-283360 Fri, 25 May 2018 07:01:25 +0000 chdot 283360@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="https://www.wunderground.com/weather/gb/slateford/IEDINBUR90" rel="nofollow">https://www.wunderground.com/weather/gb/slateford/IEDINBUR90</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18838&page=2#post-283359 Fri, 25 May 2018 07:00:16 +0000 HankChief 283359@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Bright &amp; sunny in the West.</p> <p>How's the city centre? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18838&page=2#post-283355 Thu, 24 May 2018 23:14:19 +0000 jdanielp 283355@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Oh dear.

I have a large number of inner tubes to bring so it would be helpful to have confirmation that they will indeed be collected from PY instead. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18838&page=2#post-283353 Thu, 24 May 2018 23:12:03 +0000 unhurt 283353@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Are "gembo gels" some kind of youth street drug, or an in-demand black market hair product? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18838&page=2#post-283352 Thu, 24 May 2018 23:08:13 +0000 HankChief 283352@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I have invited Cllr Key to join us at the Counter so I'll be there from 8.15 (He won't be until 9ish due to his school run duties) </p> <p>I also have a box of 'Gembo gels' to hand over if that helps swing his decision. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18838#post-283350 Thu, 24 May 2018 22:57:44 +0000 dessert rat 283350@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'll be wherever jdanielp's cake is. </p>
