If oxford wasn't full of limp wristed men(boys) then id say go and ask them, politely, face to face. With around 20 male friends standing around behind you.

It's all about the imtimidation....

If I were going to do the 'beating the crap out of them' thing, I'd take Kit along with me, and inform them that I would have beat it out of them myself, but I can't because of an injury, so I brought along the dark blue belt who destroyed me knee to do the beating on my behalf.

But I'm not going to do that.

Anyone got any idea how much a new front wheel is going to cost anyway?

If you have no better way, you might as well ask nicely. There's nothing to lose.

£40-60 for the wheel, tyre about £15-25 I'd guess, though seeing as it's someone else paying for it, I'd look at the higher ends of my estimates.

A model/make/vague description would help, specially if you're wanting a like-for-like replacement

you're a girl, why on earth are you going down the confrontation route??? wear a bra that lifts your tits up, along with some non-sluttish clothing (very important, you've got to be wife material rather than simple shag fodder, the high tits just adds sex appeal) go to the 'alpha male' in the group (i know they're from oxford brookes but still), look teary eyed, and explain ever so sweetly that you're friend is very angry and could they help contribute to the cost etc etc.

When you're a young woman I find the best way to manipulate people into doing what you want is to act dumb. What you look like or whether they can see you is irrelevant. People are stupid enough to automatically assume that if you're young and female you must be helpless and when you don't give them opportunity to think otherwise they try and help you. For your purposes when speaking over the phone raise the pitch of your voice so that it's about a half octave higher than it is normally. Also, speak in a sing song voice and make all declarative sentences sound like they're questions. Your best hope is that when being caught out by a woman the men in question will feel guilty for their behavior and pay up. Now I know that it isnt the greatest thing to act stupid to get what you want but it's worked for me in situations ranging from asking for directions to getting on an international flight without a passport. Anyways, best of luck getting your friend's bike fixed.

I could do the acting dumb thing, but they're just going to think '..er..wtf?' when I tell them to forward payment to keble college, oxford university.

I got it fixed, it was only 27 quid, but it's 27 quid i don't have...
