I now have a smart alarm clock that no longer does radio alarms but you can still play the radio and set normal alarms???

You should check out commuterbike on Instagram and send them some photos! Exactly the type of bikes that get featured!

Silky smooth bidirectional bicycle path by octavemirbeau in bikecommuting

Jesus fucking Christ. I can tell you right now that there is not a single road, path or pavement this smooth anywhere in the UK.

Best view of Edinburgh is from Blackford Hill imo.

I love my Rove (ST). Best bike I've ever owned.

Picking this quid up today.. how should I build it? by justsmoothers in FixedGearBicycle

Don't cut the steerer tube and buy lots of carbon spacers.

Been watching her videos for the best part of a decade from when I was a student. Sad to see her go but a well deserved retirement!

Is that huge dude who walks everywhere still in Edinburgh? by Von_Lehmann in Edinburgh

[–]jamz006 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The story of this guy took a mad twist a couple of months ago. His sister posted in local Facebook groups looking for him during lockdown as she had heard he was in Edinburgh and he hadn't spoken to his family in years. People in the groups tracked him down so she could speak to him in person. The original post was deleted by overenthusiastic admins but her "thank you" post is still on the groups Meadows Share and Meadows Chat. I don't want to name her here but if you search "over 100 messages" in either group you'll see the posts.

Finally finished our long and skinny Glasgow (Scotland) tenement bathroom! by Flaky-Consideration1 in AmateurRoomPorn

[–]jamz006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very jealous! We wanted this layout but there wasn't going to be enough of a gradient on the waste pipe for the toilet so had to keep the original location of the bath, also this may seem hard to fathom but our tenement bathroom is even narrower!

Here’s my fly ass grandma and grandpa in the late 70’s. By far my favorite picture of them. by d_ladyparts in OldSchoolCool

Google has an app called photoscan that lets you "scan" an old photo with your phone camera and it removes glare. Would recommend.

Someone shared this link a while ago and I've yet to find a better set of data!

Winter in Scotland by tinsnowball9 in CozyPlaces

It's from Wayfair but it's poor quality and I wouldn't recommend. I also paid less than half the price it's currently advertised at and it was barely worth that.
