I don’t think either of our cats would stand for this kind of behavior. They wouldn’t like it much at all.

I would like you to meet the newest memeber of the household, Coco the chocolate Labrador. We got her yesterday and she’s just gorgeous. She’s 10 weeks old today and loves peeing on the floor.
I’ve wanted a road bike for quite a while now, but haven’t purchased one because I have had more pressing things to spend my money on. Apparently some people aren’t as patient/honest as me.
This guy wanted a road bike REALLY bad!
Hello friends,
A large proportion of you - my readers - have commented that the last colour scheme was too difficult to read on-screen. Because I am a very accommodating kind of guy, and because you had made the effort to provide me with some feedback, I would do the right thing by you and make the site a bit more accessible. After all, when 2 out the 3 people who read this site were not enjoying the experience, it’s was time to do something.
Now the site is a simple black on white design. I have made the main content column narrower, and I have changed to a serif font. I know it looks pretty boring, and I might get around to spicing it up a little soon, but for now it should do the trick.
Of course, feedback is always welcomed.
Friendship among women:
A woman doesn’t come home one night. The next day she tells her husband she slept over at a friends house.
The man calls his wife’s 10 best friends. None of them know about it.
Friendship among men:
A man doesn’t come home one night. The next day he tells his wife he slept over at a friends house.
The woman calls her husband’s 10 best friends. 8 of them say he did sleep over and 2 claim he’s still there.
Driving to work this morning, we travelled much of the length of Bridge Road with a 30-something male cyclist who we see most mornings. The reason I keep noticing him is because he’s one of those cyclists who feels it’s not necessary for him to obay the road rules. He doesn’t stop at red lights, he doesn’t indicate when he’s going to turn, etc etc. Cyclists like him really get on my nerves.
How can we (cyclists) hope to have a fair go on the roads and be respected by other motorists and not be killed because other road users are actually aware of us and keep their eyes open, if motorists see cyclists as arrogant pricks who think they are above the law.
I bet most car drivers would like to run red lights if there are no cars coming in the other direction, but they don’t. Pull you head in, bikers, and do the right thing.
In a related story, an article in the paper this morning: If you’re male and you ride, beware. Maybe our law-breaking cyclist should have a read.
