  1. Wow, that really is shit... Hope Bisi's ok and the car's not too badly damaged.
  2. Sad news that Jules Bianchi has passed away but I still don't get what happened. Going in so fast and stamping on both the throttle and brake at the same time just seems weird.
  3. Nobody give you hassle at centre parcs?
  4. Incredible ride from Chris Froome today. Doing it in style!
  5. 2 normal spacers plus one small (1mm?) spacer on drive side (you can just see the thin silver one next to the cup) and one on non-drive side:
  6. SLX running just fine on my Arcade with an extra spacer on the drive side and a little reduction in the chainring boss height.
  7. The speed of Sagan yesterday across the line was impressive. Never liked Cav and don't mind seeing him lose.
  8. Good to see Froome in yellow again! The target on his back won't make it easy from now though I bet.
  9. I haven't seen anything about what the route is like or who it will favour... Will keep a rough track of it on ITV4 and take more interest if Froome starts looking hopeful!
  10. Also from the same seller: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cream-Leather-Sofa-Reclining-Chair-Soft-Amazing-Wow-Value-100-Vintage-Antique-/291503966476?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item43defd890c Waterproof.
  11. They could at least run the races at night and kit the cars out Tron style with cool lights and stuff but then the cars would go even slower and last even less time so that wouldn't work. I think I'm giving it just enough credit, but maybe more than deserved as you say.
  12. It just looks shit doesn't it? It's like watching kids in the cars at Lego Land following each other round. The circuits are rubbish and too narrow and it looks like the cars are going at half speed... It's really not set up as an actual motorsport in the traditional sense is it?
  13. Well I guess it's unlikely to be stolen... Also, for the manufacturer of chain tensioners you're doing it wrong
  14. I filed the chain ring bosses down slightly on mine to help move the ring out on my arcade.
  15. D'oh. Astra had to be towed home from Evesham on Sunday and best guess from local garage is that it needs a new clutch, DMF and gearbox/diff. Think I'll be after a new car then...
  16. Watched it last night from the comfort of my living room. Pretty much what I expected- entertaining but nothing amazing.
  17. Fair enough . One thing that's caught me out before when things are tight is when the top cap has a machined rebate so that although the outer part is sitting on the stem the lower, smaller diameter part is hitting the steerer.
  18. Sounds like your stem want sitting high enough so the top cap was tightening on to the steerer and not acting on the headset.
  19. You're right- the $G$3's should be $G$2's so multiplying the discount value by the cost for one. That's the problem when you fake equations!
  20. Take it that's what you meant there. I think you're pretty much doing what I'm doing but more proper . My answer is for kids who don't read good and want to do other stuff good too...
  21. Sorry, only just found this. I feel I've let the speed of the prompt answers to strange maths questions side down . In the image I used the example with £140 to work out the relative ratios you wanted (i.e. the discount curve) based on the ratios given. The £140 is irrelevant so long as you're happy with the respective discounts (in fraction/percentage terms) for each jump in quantity. If the example had been based on an item selling for £345.32 for one item it would still work out the same assuming you were happy with the 0.45, 0.28, 0.23, ... As mentioned above, the other way of doing it is by starting with the 300 @ £x and multiplying x by 1/(whatever your max discount is). For the case of 0.2 as your max discount that would be 1/0.2 = 5. From that point you've got what you started with and you can then make whatever discount ratio/curve you want. I was lost by stirlingpowers reply too! Edit: For any discount amounts the above way is probably the way to go and use something like the following: So all you need is how much you want for 300+ (or whatever) items and a discount 'curve' for the various quantities (including the maximum allowable discount for the 300+) and you'll be able to work out the respective values from there.
  22. I bet you $654.17 that I could get a set between the 23rd and 30th June...
