Christmas prep: For a great cause...
What to get for a love one, hated one, or one in between. I have the answer! Wristband in support of Fighting Strokes (fightingstrokes.org). Only £1 each! Let me know and we can do a swap - money for wristband.

Spent Saturday in cycle shops!

I had forgotten that side of cycling.  Almost tribal, chatting to other cyclists and looking at accessories and clothing that I don't need but would be quite nice.

Two weeks to go until my Trike arrives; can't help but think I'll be spending more time in cycle shops!

Rachel and I will be at the Amwell Street Fete tomorrow early afternoon, why not come along too?  Our church (Trinity Church Islington) will have a presence.  R has already baked some cakes...

So hot blowing is banned - or is it; yes, no and maybe.  

It does seem that Formula 1/FIA seem content to create political disputes.  This may be good for promotion of the sport, papers seem to love this off track discourse, but I don't believe it is good for the sport.  I, myself a fan, find it distracting and make those not fans wonder why I retain an interest.  It doesn't seem very sporting.

F1 is about who comes first.  I, and I'm sure most fans, care more about the race on the track over any going on in FIA trailers or court rooms.

Please F1, sort yourself out.  Race on track.  Technology is a feature of F1; meddle with rules for future seasons but keep rules consistent during a season.  Some teams will find a loophole and then a development race is on.  But to change rules during a season penalises those who have found a hole in the rules.  Those who break rules should be punished, not those who don't.
I'd like to know what you think:-

As I (Andrew) discovered, stroke can affect anyone

We wwnt for an explore of One New Change, near St Pauls

Yes we are now married - hurray.

We had a good honeymoon and haven't sought a divorce yet.  Some images from the wedding and honeymoon have been put up on the appropriate pages.  Comment to this post if you have comments on them.

It was a great day, many thanks to all those who shared it with us.

Woken up at 5.30 with what I assume is a new urban sport.

If you want to partake note that the fuller the glass recycling bin, the more noise it will make!

Here's How:

1. Get extremely drunk or extremely bored. Moonshine whiskey makes for the best urban-cow tipping experience, but extreme boredom (teenagers with nothing to do) will suffice.
2. Bring friends. Urban-cow tipping is no fun without company!
3. Find a pasture (street) with urban-cows. 
4. Go at night so that you won't see the urban-vagrant as you step in them....
5. Find an isolated urban-cow and be sure it's sleeping.
6. Approach the urban-cow against the wind (avoid the stale alcohol whiff).
7. Go for the tip! In a creeping motion, walk toward the urban-cow, place both hands on one of its flanks, and push with a hard, but smooth stroke.
8. RUN far away. ).
9. Go home to whittle or perhaps brew some more moonshine for your next cow tip!

Tips:

1. Be sure the 'urban-cow' you are trying to tip is not a dust cart. It is not wise to tip the dust carts.
2. Don't try this near home! Partners/flat-mates have feelings too! It is far better to annoy strangers
