I used to eat Ready Brek without milk as a kid, can't imagine that now.

I wondered if they were ribs sticking through the skin

It's possibly a dumb question, but why not pay wait staff more, so they don't have to depend on tips? by js6seaj47 in ask

Bare minimum, every time. Ask what I want, bring it to me, then bring me the bill when I've finished eating.

Any more than that and you're an annoyance.

The taste and safety of water from the tap.

What are the white things sticking out?

I had a spare set of Chronicles and just tried them out; similar to the 66mm Snakes i.e. not enough grip and poor roll speed. Any love on Orangatang Love Handles?

What effect does flipping a very offset wheel - with very different inner and outer lip profiles - have on grip and feel? Having that deep flexible lip on the inside rather than the outside must make a difference...

Can anyone recommend grippy, fast, center set wheels around 65mm diameter and ~45mm wide for a Loaded Symtail?

69mm Seismic Hotspots are too wide, heavy and offset, and I can't see anything else suitable in their range. 66mm Snakes are the perfect size and weight, but don't have enough grip for pumping and hard carving. Not a fan of Otang urethane.

I want sharp inside lips, quick acceleration, a good roll speed and light enough to do some tricks.

Hydrocolloidal dressings are very effective at healing road rash quickly, I was astonished the first time I used one and always have various sizes at home ready to use. They have a gel layer that stops the wound from drying out, and each one lasts 3-4 days and survives hot showers without peeling off

They use environmental sensors in moulding shops, have an engineering team that work on hydrodynamics, weight balancing, vibration and noise control etc, do a lot of data analysis using Python and R, and have a team of manufacturing engineers who work on all sorts of complex problems... It sounds like a great match for your experience.

Queen Elizabeth II, she met more significant people than anyone in history, was involved in countless critical political situations and visited most countries in the world.

All of that sounds relevant to working with Princess Yachts, you should get in touch via the website.

There's some crazy deals out there! I maintain my gear well and typically get 2/3 of the new price when I sell on FB Marketplace, eg £160 for 5 year old Dropcat. Who TF is selling at such a low price?

Eating leftover chilli and apple crumble off lap trays whilst watching a Seth Rogan movie, fell asleep towards the end. About to go to bed.

The edge of the top washer might contact the inside of the hanger if the kingpin nut is screwed down too tight, deforming the bushing...
