Were's bl**dy Weirdmire when you need him?

Could do with a laugh.

tebbit,

Coming shortly, we are not finished with Doctor Doctor, tyred or Rocky, or indeed traffic lights for that matter.

We have had our hands full since Saturday morning. For the 2nd time since last September, when we opened for business, (March this year was the first round) we have had our computers stolen. 24inch top spec iMacs, 15 of and a very powerful Mac Pro fitted with a very expensive 32inch wide screen, mostly without keyboards, they left the keyboards behind, is the score. It is a vexing business. But we can still produce and deliver the shirts, some of our admin was not fully backed up but everything to do with production was.

No. Remember there are two personalities within the entity that is Weed.

Hence the 'we'!

Probably not a great idea posting on the internets what great computer equipment you have at your place that will no doubt be replaced by your insurance company. Theives have a tendancy to come back once the stuff has been replaced and now anyone who reads this knows that your office is about to get some brand new top notch macs, you never know who's lurking on here.

Mmm, I'm getting a little scared now - I mean your business has been ransacked (sincere condolences by the way, differences aside no-one deserves that :!: ) and you are still thinking about ‘arguments’ on here!?! I hope you aren’t spending too much time thinking about it (for your sake), I mean it really isn’t worth it, is it??? Anyways, look forward to your posts when you get the insurance sorted…

Prawny,

Thank you for the thought. The way the thieves have come in on the last two occasions will be made all but impregnable today: 8mm steel door, opening out, padlocked from within, its frame sunk into the walls and the floor. It will be serious work with a serious angle grinder to get through. The game will cease to be worth the effort and the chances of being caught are also set to rise with some other steps that we will take.

I see two of the more challenged contributors to this thread, who are presently not saying much, are clearly paying attention. The "we" is as in all parties here who might be interested, designers, family Stegers, and the corporate entity, WeAdmire.net. WeAdmire and the designers because WE are set to have a traffic light ridiculing series of t shirts. As you may have noticed if you have visited www.weadmire.net the motivation for a given design is explained by the designer. You can expect our shirts on traffic lights to have plenty of explanatory text, the RTL/TfL report, if we get it, will be published there for example. The traffic light sculpture by Pierre Vivant can expect to be featured, he seems to have had the stupidity of traffic lights worked out some time before the rest of us.

For the time being please be patient WE have our hands full.

Amy got robbed!

I presume your robbers thought that the rules regarding nicking other people stuff didn't apply to them as no-one gets hurt and they are special.

I've heard nicking stuff is the "emerging best practice" for getting stuff you want.

Are ya gonna use my tag;

"Guns don't kill cyclists...traffic lights do!" *


*Goldie Lookin Chain reference, you know's it!

I'm suggesting

"4 out of 5 of my multiple personalities prefer running red lights"

Mr Sworld

'My other traffic light is also on red'

Aguila

Perhaps he/she/it could ask red or dead to make a special designer version.

Aguila

Oh and this from near me on naughty cars RLJ'ing.

The more you write about WeAdmire as an 'entity' the more it just sounds like some sort of 'cult' to me!?!

Is the T-shirt 'business' a front for the cult? Do you have a 're-education' centre in a back room of the shop? Are you trying to convert everyone on bikeradar? :shock:

Or maybe, as many have said already, it's just an elaborate advertisment for selling T-shirts - see highlighted...

This thread just runs and runs doesn't it.

Some of us forummers were in Wales (riding our bikes) at the weekend, we looked under a bridge we discovered - just on the off-chance that weadmire was at home. Sadly he wasn't, all we found was a pile of soggy old t-shirts.

Should the 'forummers' who are resident in Wales be insulted by this post?

I guess you did travel all the way from 'Landan' just to cycle here, maybe that's a compliment

Just 10%? Obviously you don't drink enough...... all those sparkling waters must make up a fair portion of their takings then!!

So, to the people who RLJ, do you also cross level crossings when the lights are flashing?

Ya know cautiously like, obviously when you can see a train isn't coming

Of course not, that would be stupid.
