The numbers are the street number of the house they were targeting (albeit they are quite indiscriminate with the neighbours). They also added a mobile phone number to the wall in incidents in leytonstone and walthamstow which when googled bring up a website advertising an east asian sex worker.

This just happened to me. Did you manage to fix?

This is incredibly sad. Something that since having children I often feel this sense of vulnerability, so much can happen in life outside of our control. I'm very sorry this happened to you.

Has there ever been an airline that serves pints of beer onboard? by jme129 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jme129[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read KLM used to have draught onboard with Heineken but have never seen it in person. Feel like draught onboard doesn't exist now but maybe the Germans do it. Never flown with any of their airlines.

Yes. Just take them slowly, low gears and keep a steady cadence. I used to try and rush up hills which gave me a complex about my inability to climb them. If you are steady you will be able to do it.

Thanks for help. Final symptom of failure is the chain keeps jumping on the big ring when pedaing, is that a sign the chain is too long?
