Good evening, Graham. It would be nice to see some pictures of the event, Andy!

Re: Wednesdays© ..................................... are vastly overrated
Onyhoo, having already missed Craig, I didn't want to miss Kimberly as we had arranged to go uot in the evening and this call was concerning meet-up times. (Non romantic, I hasten to add) Now, I didn't particularly want to stop still as I was topless, so Like a moron, decided to take my piephone out of my left poquette with my left hand and put it up against my left ear. Stupidly, I had neglected the fact that the road went downhill after Banana News, and down to the former Woolworth's.
The right hand brake lever works the front brake on my bike...

Re: Wednesdays© ..................................... are vastly overrated
tournedos:
Puncher:
I think it was struggling with all the pages I had open - 3 wed© related, the Daily Mirror crossword, a fully DSP book pdf (>600 pages) and google news. I guess it just can't multitask as well as me!
I seem to have two Firefox windows with 22 tabs put together, a couple of Acrobat readers, three XEmacs windows for editing, an R session with console + a couple of graph windows, three SSH windows to various servers, and a VLC player running a netradio...
And now it's about time to lock this machine and start walking home... will be back in a bit 
Trivial stuff compared to the Daily Mail crossword

Is this from where the phrase "head over heels in love" originates?

Evening Graham!

Re: Wednesdays© ..................................... are vastly overrated
Jandyt:
Well, as I started gently squeezing the front brake, my body started leaning forward and also there was a great deal of yaw to the right. I cleverly realised that if I were to continue squeezing, I would fall off in front of a crowded street of Saturday shoppers. I also worked out that I could not let go of me piephone, and to quickly swap my right hand over to the left brake lever would be catastrophic. So I let go.
You told me you never did any speeding! Were you inspired by the story of my doormats?
