Observer bias, mate. Most meteorologists that have gone there to make measurements never returned.

I should be able to make it along to this on 'Saturnday'.

Going. Might be a bit broken what with hosting a social event of my own the night before. So will be abstemious and restrained*.

Think I might pull some stats over the weekend a drip feed them out. To start with there are 6 users that have posted over 10 000 times!
And 930 that have posted at least once.

"there are 6 users that have posted over 10 000 times!"
Wow! Can we have a pub quiz tomorrow night to see who can correctly name them all...
Posted 4 years ago # -
I can guess 2 of them, probably 3.
I wonder if any are no longer regular posters.

@CHdot, you coming to the party?
Posted 4 years ago # -
Cool idea, @chrisfl! Looking forward to the stats.
And the quiz!
I would like to see a histogram of posts per users. I hope the distribution is normal and the universe is still in order.
Unless CCE is an anomaly and skewed. But which way?
Posted 4 years ago # -
Bill I am guessing there will. Be outliers

I once heard the question asked, in all seriousness 'Are you familiar with the concept of normality?'.

“Unless CCE is an anomaly”?
You have to ask??

Thanks to Bill, for a nudge, I'm in!! :-)

Have to get Torchwood to investigate! (Matrix like prog from 10 years ago. Black Range Rovers with blacked out windows being driven badly in a blacked out, bicycle free Cardiff).
In a future Scotland CCE has enough expertise to be a government in waiting. Think we have people with a broad range of talent / knowledge.

Bumping again. Hope to see some new folk, as well as the usual suspects.
7pm (although actually have table earlier - am planning to have something to eat first).
Summerhall - room on the right as you go into the building with the bar in it.
There are bike racks inside the quad/courtyard. If you look carefully you may find some antique pop posters.

Is side gate kept open for bike access then? D

antique PoP posters?

@laidback always has been when i've been there.
@chdot more of a permanent installation than a gallery...
Posted 4 years ago # -
thanks to @SRD for the heads up, I hope to see folks, new and old, later.
I've looked out a bunch of old cycling prints I did a few years back and some T-shirts that have been gathering dust, so bring along a bag or pannier to get a few home with you.

@kaputnik, ok, i bought the Robert Millar one from you, it is very good
Just heading in now
Posted 4 years ago # -
I don't think I have any Robert Millars left. All the big ones went a while ago, but just found loads of A4 ones all sealed up in plastic while raking about for something else.

Roger de Vlarminck
Eddy Merckx
Jacques Anquetil
Federico Bahamontes

“ I can guess 2 of them, probably 3.

Suspected so.
Slightly embarrassed about gap between 1 and rest.
Must get on with my new life.
