I remember when the internet was only in black & white. It only had a few pages but at least they
all worked. Email: Put only the word "richard" before the @ sign.

I placed an order saturday which arrived yesterday with two packs of wine gums. Believe me, you
didn't miss much.

I have used Edinburgh bicycle and Cycle express, both times with no problem and with
excellent service.

Chain Reaction. Order placed about 14:00. Items arrived about 10:00 the next day. For wheels. From
N. Ireland. Very impressive. No wine gums though.

Me neither. They did send me a key ring/bottle opener, though, which I seem to have
subsequently lost....

About 6 months ago I faxed an order to Gearshift, after a 10 days no goods so I emailed them, very
busy will do order soon, after another week still no goods, rang them again, order still sitting
there not done ("we're still very busy"). I cancelled the order and went elsewhere. They were very
polite but didnt seem to want to sell stuff.

Ordered some stuff from Edinburgh Bicycle Co-operative (Sunnywheel bike lift - thanks to who gave me
the tip) last w/e and that turned up promptly.

Cheers
