I think that's it. There's also the likelihood of the dreaded (for
British politicians, at least) coalition and being forced to

Torn between 2 phones
Mon, 23 Nov 2009 11:46:20 -0800 (PST)
Upgrade time with O2 [1]. Last time I got a jammy deal on an N95, 200
mins and UL texts for 15 ppm. Now been offered 200 mins plus 400 texts
for 200 ppm - with a choice that comes down to 2 phones.
Nokia E71 - which seems popular here - I'd have to pay a whopping one-
off charge of a fiver to get this.

R1150GS (Loz: just move on, nowt to see here)
Mon, 23 Nov 2009 20:05:13 +0100
Paging them wot know.
I'm looking to get another bike. Although the Tuono has served me very
well, I'm afraid it will depreciate quite a bit more as I put on the
miles (42 000 at the moment).

Chigwell to Vauxhall routes?

For reasons involving multiple vicars, porn stars, art and techno I
need to drive from Essex into London on Friday morning.
What's the best route? Any particular bits to avoid?
