In shiny skin hugging lycra and a streamlined helmet, the perfect cycling conditions are still air at an ideal temperature for peak efficiency. .

For the great majority of all my cycling years there weren't any cycle helmets, I'd been cycling for just short of 40 years when the first standards for one were accepted. I've never worn a helmet in 70 years of cycling, didn't wear one for motorcycling for 23 years either, and have never...

Eventual soft Brexit Norwegian style? Costing us £50 billions, the loss of our rebate and annual fees to continue borderless trading. .

Lucky you, being able to afford a chauffeur to do it. .

They often don't even do that. A few years ago I saw a Bosch fridge in a store that seemed to have trim already peeling off it and looking shoddy. Investigating around the back revealed it was made in China. .

That's not true, 30mph not as fast as touring cyclists! Touring cyclists don't ride at anywhere near 30mph on the flat. Nearer 20mph is the best they usually ride at. The current one hour world record is under 32 mph, riding a top class dedicated track bike on a smooth cycle track in lycra...

Still as naughty though, it's the boss's time you're using! .

Funny isn't it, I posted the above and immediately only myself and Woosh were left posting in this thread. Guilty conscience everyone? :D .

I class that as trash TV and despair that such a large proportion of our population is moronic enough to watch it. .

The fact is Zlatan that using computers at work for private purposes is so commonplace that it's the norm. This forum for example is only busy Monday to Friday in business hours and it's always been that way for it's eleven years of existence. Many with a regular online presence admit to not...

It is this whole attitude that I disagree with, grossly exaggerating every aspect of such events, not just in respect of Damian Green but in respect of how anyone is treated in similar circumstances. It is very much to do with the stupidly uptight Victorian attitudes to sex that persist in this...

The rest of the world won't give a damn, they are far more sensible than this country with it's silly uptight Victorian attitudes to sex. So what if Damian Green had or didn't have porn images on his computer, it's not illegal if he did. The only person in the wrong here is that ex police...

You're in now, riding on the B710. As in many sparsely populated areas, your initial postcode covers a vast area so it dumped you in the middle miles from any roads. I've moved you onto the nearest B road, but let me know if you'd like somewhere more appropriate to where you are. .

There we have it then, it's either a hard border or as I said, dump the DUP. After all, they've just said they'll dump us if they feel inclined. .

Heres the link to that article. Time to dump the DUP? .

The link was broken, here it is repaired: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-sets-out-vision-for-post-eu-trade-and-customs-policy .

Clearly Barnier wasn't being helpful, but surely that's what we must expect after sending the EU a "Dear John" letter and being cussed about our share of the joint committments. We say we want to remain good friends while hardly striking a friendly posture, the lack of realism I mentioned and...

Because they are intelligent enough to see that departure is both impossible to reverse at present and that it will eventually be reversed by the seriously adverse Brexit outcome. .

Surely that is just implementing policy? Outside of the EU the UK is no different from any other foreign country, having the potential to be an enemy, as our long joint history proves. Clearly the EU cannot freely share all defence and security issues with foreign countries and that will...

Excellent post Tom, it describes and contrasts the positions very accurately. .
