Nothing Injured Save My Dignity

Hard frost.

Preferred route into work involves an idyllic green lane, with at one point a winding 1:1 gradient as it descends from the centre of the island to the coast.

Number of gritting trucks on the island: minimal.

Number of people standing around wondering how they were going to move their cars outside the house at the start of the gradient and witnessing me riding past: 4.

State of my brakes: no better than ok.

Spectacular. 9, 9, 8, 9 and 3 from the East German judge for style.

Ow.

Only On Fox

"All Out Civil War In Iraq, Could It Be A Good Thing?"

Err, no, it couldn't. Next question?

Need Sun

Oooh.

Stick Figures Insufficient

Estzer on Crooked Timber on lavatory gender indentifiers. Good comments thread too.

I have, once or twice, found myself puzzled, if only for a few moments, by some signs.
