    There putting out tenders for the wall. The Donald looks like a shoe in to build it given his talents in this area. May be one or two BMX's in the field given some of the barriers that should be in place by then

    Surely you could justify a day off work to open the box? :D:D

    About 10 days ago, I ordered a pair of pedals from Merlin Cycles.
    I asked today, why they were delayed. I was told they were in Customs, awaiting clearance, In America.
    I wasn't expecting Brexit to be so complicated.

    A Steam Cleaner from Black and Decker. This was a huge disappointment. I filled in a form 2 months ago and the website refused to acknowledge the Irish address. I sent an email and they said Id have to uses snail mail so I didn't bother. Apparently it finally went through.

    This is only slightly better than the time two huge boxes arrived in work addressed to me with Alpina written on the side. I had just returned a frame to Dolan who use Alpina kit. I thought someone had messed up and I was getting multiple bikes. Turns out Alpina is a company in central Europe who supply safety cabinets and they shipped straight to me rather than through the distributor I ordered through.

    Very disappointed.

    Unless the package has come from Pat Mustard, is this really that much of an issue? I'd love to get random free stuff delivered.

    You don't hear about Pat for ages and then...

    I'm personally very satisfied it's a stream cleaner! They look so satisfying to use. I've wanted one ever since I found out they existed.
