That would have been a suitably jocular comeback, actually. After all the driver that knocked me off in 2007 was female.

And so it was back in the ’80s when I worked there. Eg A Raleigh Burner BMX would come with red, yellow or blue tyres, but we had no stock of these. There were sets of rad pads, but they weren’t Raleigh. I still can hear Nigel the cycle floor manager saying “take one off another one, mate” – we often cannibalised.

This was posted on one local group I belong to. I couldn’t get the admin or FB to remove it and the poster childishly dug her heels in when challenged. We went through the usual “ha ha ha I’m a cyclist too”, “can’t you take a joke” “you’re controlling” until she bailed out. No, your “joke” about someone getting injured isn’t landing with me.
A few days ago, I had someone this same group innocuously, but selectively posting the anti-cycling rantings of the New Forest Court of Verderers, the most crank-snapping, absurd, jumped-up and parochial bunch you can imagine. If you’re recovering from an illness, you could do worse than bring up their minutes, after you’ve drunk your fill of random one and two star Tripadvisor reviews.
I get the words, we sometimes make jokes about that on here, but the image and the words…thanks, lady for making the roads a slightly more shitty and dangerous place for VRUs.

The owner of the lorry said, “I would like to thank Inspector Finch and his men for the supreme effort they made in dealing with the crash”
Inspector Finch added “and I would like to thank all the police staff involved in helping to locate the escaped birds for their professionalism – it’s a real feather in their cap”
(It would be beneath me to say that the lorry driver got a roasting.)
I initially thought the story and post was concocted as one massive feed-line. Thanks for posting it.

what is it about cars and driving that makes people like this?
A few weeks ago, a driver knocked over a traffic light on a mearby main road. This must to do with the replacement.

Beeston homeowner heard a ‘great big bang’ as car crashes into his fence
He said: “I’m used to it now – not a lot of emotion at all, we’ve had it happen so many times and over the years you come accustomed to it, you become immune to it and just hope nobody Is injured.
“They’ve been in the wall opposite, the house opposite, the flats – all four corners. It’s careless driving and not knowing the junction properly. There’s been three this month, two finished in the middle of the road, just minor bumps.

“Our shop and the dog groomers have been left unprotected from traffic. Above our premises are flats and the situation really is a risk to everyone. A lot of kids walk along up to the High School and Tower Road Academy and there’s no protection.”

In the last 45 days, the centre of the Conservative Party seems to have woken up a bit. That is to judge from all the wailing on Twitter from its right wingers that the party has lost its soul and there’s been a left wing coup.

We’re getting reports of a loose dog being run over in a country lane by a reversing Range Rover. Yorkshire Police say they have no leads.
