I don't think that's the AVERAGE cyclist. That's just the aggressive, pushy ones you see from time to time. When I'm on a bike, of course I am concerned with getting from A to B as quickly as possible. But I'm also concerned with not sitting behind a bus inhaling its exhaust fumes, and not...

Ooh, is it the Stabber Park Tavern? Or the Hikers' Rest?

The one with the panda bear talking about "Fox's Bisquits"

The police are, of course, allowed to dish out on the spot fines for doing stuff like that. But yes, I think pedestrian lanes are deffo the way forward.

All the bike-heads at work told me this when I first got mine, and indeed it's where I went. However, I've been back twice with various problems that should have been picked up in the free first service. And they frankly don't seem that bothered with me, as I'm not buying one of their hugely...

One might argue that failing to get in some doughnuts for a night shift "would impede his/her ability to carry out his/her job otherwise"

I went to Portobello Market in west London last autumn and bought a second-hand Ralph Lauren coat for £100 ("Only used for photoshoots, guv"). I was subsequently told by someone who works in the clothes trade that this coat retails at about £1,000. I would advise a look round similar...

Ahem Palace Players: Not the brightest? - North Stand Chat

If you passed your test when you were seventeen in 1998, and were one of the first to get a new-style photocard, you now have to replace it BY LAW at a cost of £17.50. Robbing fuckers.

I'd be VERY suspicious about buying a second hand bike off Gumtree. Specially from someone who wanted to offload it that cheaply.

Depends on what she paid at the start of the tenancy. Many letting agents charge a proportion of the rent to take you up to the first day of the following calendar month, and then begin collecting monthly rent from thereon. Otherwise it should be calculated by the day the tenancy began.

I'm going on Friday with my brother. Compton lower, 55 quid. I'm hoping it doens't rain at my visit to a Lord's test TWO years in a row. How the DEUCE do you all get to be MCC members?

You've had ONE puncture in FIVE years? WHAT?

I've got a Specialized Globe Sport -- this year's models are a bit sexier than last year's, which is the one I've got. Pretty light and nippy, too, even considering I've had mudgards and a rack fitted to mine so I can cycle in my work trousers to the supermarket! You'll get one for about £350 --...

I used to get the 5B or the 26 to school. The driver of the 26 once got so IRATE with all the kids ringing the bell that he drove, without stopping, to Hollingbury Asda and left us in the car park. So probably that one.

Susanna Reid is pretty fit, agreed. As is Gosling, although she is much shorter than she looks, and is also married to one of my big bosses. As for Sian (from Eastbourne, fact fans), she's far too thin for me thanks.

Agreed -- it was brill. Though I don't think anyone would last that long in prison and still have the same haircut. Anyway, I hereby resolve to bounce this thread every time someone whinges about the licence fee on NSC.

She really isn't all that, you know. I sit two desks away from her when she's on News 24. She wears too much makeup and she walks a bit funny. As El Pres is well aware, I reserve my desk-based lustings for Fiona Bruce (really, REALLY fit when she's just wearing normal non-TV clothes) and of...

Surely she, and the tent, are photoshopped on, here? I bloody hate Liz Jones. In fact I refuse to read her because she makes me so angry.

Yes, we need more TRIED and TESTED Englishmen like Robin Smith, Allan Lamb, Graeme Hick and Kevin Pietersen. Seriously though, I wonder if the lack of English Afro-Caribbeans at all levels of the game has anything to do with the decline of West Indies as a cricketing force?
