Weather you like it or not

Dear friends! It's been too long. I do apologise for my absence over the weekend, but with the combination of exotic weather and celebrating my impending birthday (tomorrow, for those wanting to know when to bring the presents round), I've had little time to write things up!

Not for lack of meat though, nosireebob.

First off, that man Jed has Google Streetviewed me one for the grey-mattered cyclists among you (I'm looking at you, Dr Thirde!). Should you ever have some bike problems that just need getting off your chest, then where better to take them, than here?:



Do excuse the regrettable cropping. The Google Car obviously had a mild fit at the point of taking that particular photograph. Some people have no foresight, do they? It's in Oxford, by the by.

Next up, Gary has caught me one that I walk past all the time. It does upset me when people see things that I really should have. But that's why I have you all I suppose! This sign was in the door of a quaint little Italian Café in Kingston:



Grazie, Signor Gary.
