Bobbins

Yesterday evening, with the lure of free alcohol, I cycled over to the new Bobbins bike shop. They plied me with white wine whilst showing off their new range of clothing and bikes. Bobbins isn't like a normal bike shop, it is a bicycle boutique catering for the more discerning, fashion conscious, urban cyclist.

Bad taste

As I was pedalling through a notorious black spot for road accidents, Elephant and Castle roundabout, I noticed the bill board advertising a new drama on ITV called 'Collision'. Bearing in mind that a cyclist was killed practically beneath the sign earlier this year makes it rather insensitive don't you think? Apparently they are advertising another new mini drama outside the Royal Infirmary called 'Cot death'. Sicko's.
