Agree. And go to a chiropractor. Seriously. if your bones are out of whack they need re-aligning before the muscles grow around the dis-placed bones and support them in their new wrong place. The chiropractor will issue a receipt and you can claim that back. I am sorry to hear about your accident and hope things are okay soonest. Just wonderin' why don't you want to make a compensation claim? If the driver admitted liability and the witnesses heard that you have a strong case.

Oh - and and and and There's a fine line between clever and stupid.

I am writing a pm to blinder since blinder seems fit to make judgments on an accident he or she did not witness, does not know all the facts about, and has no idea about the sort of person I am as a motorcyclist and my experience and training and so on. Please stop this blinder and think before you press send.

Fabulous one and all. Love the old dial telephone too!! I made a fabulous delicious carrot cake last week for a friend who had been very kind to me in recent troubles. It decorated it with walnuts and grapes. It was ate before I could find me camera! I don't much enjoy cooking but now and again I get the urge and surprise the hell out of everyone.

Right, I am a maniac. blinder999 please don't print this crap, you do not know me, you do not know my skills or biking history (28 years) and you do not know details. If you have an issue write a personal message. blinder999 Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > You are not an advanced driver - you are a maniac > who should revisit the highway code and learn from > your dangerous mistakes before you kill yourself > or someone else (and I have held a full motorbike > license for twenty years) : > > "My biggest problem with cyclists is those who > undertake at speed behind and to the left of > lorries or vans ie they are hidden, so that as the > lorry driver flahes his lights to let me turn > right in front of him I have to be doubly careful > in case some cycling @#$%& is undertaking that > lorry.

Don't touch it, no, don't even look at it. (The Guitar scene) Does it have a title? Lick my Love Pump.

Why do lots of you think 20mph zones are a good idea? People who have it in their nature will speed whether they are in 20mph zones or not. Why do you think speed bumps are a good idea? (Unless you mend cars.) Not for ambulances and police and not for those who are hit as a result of others swerving round the "cushions". Why does no-one discuss the fact that those who walk - run - dawdle on the roads without looking, or without paying attention on their mobiles or whatever, in front of cars no matter how fast or slow the cars are doing, are to blame for their actions? Why make pavements wider? Why not just say what you want to say, you want to ban cars altogether? Why are all good drivers (and many of us are and advanced, too) expected to be legislated against becauise of the actions of a few? Just asking, like.

The question is: is it right to legislate against market forces? If no-one read the Sun / shopped at Tescos / drank at Starbucks etc they'd go away. [puts lid from opened can of worms into recycling bin and runnnnnnnnnnnnssssss]

1) No, a Motorbike. 2) Garage. 3) No. There is a bike park on North Cross Road. May I also take the opportunity to recommend http://www.lock2lock.co.uk/ and also that you join a motorcycle group such as http://www.mag-uk.org/index.html who even allow scooter riders! Safe riding!

Awwww what a sweet story! Who's Sean, where's Whimple? I had Phoenix down on my Will till Dogbolter bolted, then changed it to Clockhouse across the park, my local. It's just got better and better! (My will, as in No Service or religious stuff, just everyone down the pub!) On another note, I had to pop into the Plough some time ago to deliver something, and always thought I would like to drink there one day it seems so nice, but all the stories of it being a creche are REALLY putting me off. I agree that my fave type of pubs are ones you are allowed to drink and swear and not have to worry about over-sensitive mummy and daddy-ears!

1) In the Lake District is a small pub which has about 100 different beers on sale at any time. I think. Trouble is, had to drive there and the B&B was a bike ride away. 2) The Phoenix when it was The Phoenix & Firkin, Denmark Hill, when the Firkin Brewery section was visible and they made DOGBOLTER beer (strongest. And Phoenix (middle) and Rail Ale (mildest). 3) Cheers off the telly.

You're a good person, wallet. What are you? A good person. Well done.

I'm a biker and there's a lovely considerately placed motorbike park on North Cross Road, so I am glad you only talked about banning cars. However, I know people who drive from Sydenham to North Cross Road to get their goodies and stuff on their way to other places, so a bus is not a viable alternative for them, and I don't think EDers or the ED businesses want to deny the money people bring in to the area even if it is via car. All the roads around there are clogged, banning cars along North Cross Road would make it worse for absolutely everyone. I think also there is a one way area or at least a point at which you can't turn right at several junctions somewhere near there, and thus driving down North Cross Road is your only way in or out. Can't remember exactly where I am talking about, now, but I am sure that would make things worse. Welcome by the way to the forum!

Hello and greetings. I have asked and suggested this before that there should be a Welcome section? Admin? Whaddya say? Enjoy the fun!

I just can't believe there is not a M&S Food shop or a White Company shop in East Dulwich. This really is too bad....

That is such a coincidence! Your nick name is Wallet and you have found a ... wallet! ;)

This is an interesting subject. Certainly there is a beautiful irony that if the bike is covered then the wardens can not touch the bike to get the reg number to issue the ticket; whilst also it is illegal to have a vehicle on the road (road? Ha! this was the pavement) without a valid up to date tax disc on display. I think the law was changed recently that means the wardens can lift the cover, and that putting a sock over the number plate is also illegal. They always like ruining the fun. But also, I am of the opinion it is rather selfish to park on the pavement. Pavements are for people. When people wander across the road in front of me I have a scream at them for being so stupid. So reasonably and fairly I should not have my bike on the pavement where such people Should be! So what do we do. Email and lobby the council for more secured motorcycle parking bay in your area (ie a rack at the back so you can attach a chain / D lock to it). They'll ignore you, of course...

Interesting to see who did and did not vote! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7305903.stm

new paragraph HA.

I worked with the bloke that played J R Hartley once. Reading a book, he was. RIP Cap'n!! The Milky Bar kids are on him!

Saw a bloke what used to be in the Bill when it was good, recently in the Clockhouse. Can't remember which one. Most of them probably.

Avoid it because I cross there then and I might jump out and frighten you? Well, okay, I do do that occasionally. But why, seriously? Is it very dangerous? At the Police Ward meeting the other day for the area that covers the park, no mention was made of anything having happened there in the dark. Indeed, most of the crime that was discussed at the meeting happened in broad daylight. No, wait, I think ALL of it did. Walk confidently and don't look like a victim, and be very aware of what is going on around you, not just walking across the common at night but at all times. I walk across the common alone regularly (from the Clockhouse, usually!). Refuse to feel frightened. I think I'm going on a bit now so I will stop....
