    It's from that 80s-90s era when pink was a good thing.

    For some reason a number of pink bikes seems just what I need to
    complement my purple ones. Someone please stop me...

    Don't do it, Roos. Just stay where you are. The nice gentle strong men
    in the white van are on their way.

    Would this be Roos Pink, by any chance?

    Or Kanga's Pink?

    Jack McConnell came to the lab yesterday. He asked how many people in our
    'flagship of Scottish science' were born in Scotland. No one seems to know
    but my guess would be well under 20%..

    Why would he expect (m)any Scots to stay at home? Surely it is as much a
    mark of pride that a 'flagship of Scottish science' can attract
    furriners and not just mop up the local layabouts who are too
    lazy/unimaginative to get on their bikes (on-topic!) and find work abroad.

    Maybe, but Deed Polls are strictly English, not United Kingdom, law.
    There is, actually, no such thing as United Kingdom law, since Scots
    law is entirely different from (and based on different legal theories
    than) English law. Under Scots law you may legally use any name you
    like provided you don't try to defraud anyone.

    Simon, I merely provided the link. I did not create, and do not own, the UK
    Deed Poll Service. Please complain to them that they need to change their name.
    You could suggest that they contact a valid Deed Poll Service....

    Marc,

    Steve

    Sorry Steve, been on vacation. The dropouts on 'pinkie' are virtually
    horizontal and they have a screw adjuster from the rear for aligning the
    wheel. The bike would make a great fixie....I haven't got one of them,
    might take it off ebay now actually :-)

    Cheers,
