Loving your brainstorm...or should that be 'thought shower' these days? Do I detect a hint of teacher in you?
We have a cycle to work scheme here in Worcs which helps with your purchase of a bike and accessories. Several staff have used this service. I used to cycle everywhere as a student (no car or money for bus). Loved being out in countryside. Clears cobwebs as well as arteries. Now much older and too chicken to brave the traffic, sorry to say.
if i wasnt so fat and wobbly, id have no hesitation to get ona bike....but who wants to see someones fat ass wobbling in front of them? maybe when i lose a wee bit weight, i'll get back on mine :lol:
Sorry for spelling your name wrongly before. Also loving the photo you posted on another page. I bet you'll get a nice snapshot tonight. Glad to hear you have more sense than to be a teacher. I did it for 15 years before learning that there was more to life.
