It could just be a visual warning to cars that they are approaching/crossing a road with a designated cycle lane and to take care accordingly...
-
It would have to be full width to safely facilitate a right turn. I was thinking that if a cyclist has to stop for the pedestrian crossing, they have right of way to wait in the green zone, and cars crossing either from the left or right have to give way to them, and can only cross when clear...
-
A stab in the dark...as they are sandwiched between pedestrian crossings, might they not be some kind of a designated waiting zone for cyclists while people cross the road?...

I grew up knowing both systems, it wouldn't bother me if everything was metric, but I still think in imperial for some things, like my height, weight, long distances. I've never understood the hoohah about metric/imperial when buying fruit and veg as I tend to buy by quantity rather than a specific weight...

I reckon he thinks he's a bit of a maitn?e idol for the blue rinse brigade, aka the poor man's Des Lynam had someone punched him in the nose. But alas poor Double D, he's going head to head with Michel Barnier, all European suave, charm and sophistication. Only one winner I'm afraid, it won't be long before our Treez throws her knickers in the direction of Brussels...

Yep, that's always been the case with PA when there is a tie. Personally I would give it to the player with the least number of incorrect results as I feel there's a small element of luck with correct scores, but thems the rules and it's the same for everyone...

Anything and anywhere that is full of tourists, which virtually rules out most of central London. Might be easier to list the hidden gems worth visiting, like our very own Picture Gallery or Eltham Palace...

You really must get out of that metroplitan elite bubble you clearly live in. You paint a picture of the few, not the many. My friend's son left University with ?40+k debt, the majority taken up with fees and accommodation costs, living in a house share that would've made the Young Ones proud. None of this paid for by his parents. Their daughter started University last year and quit after one year, panicked by the debt. > Yes University fees are a big worry but blame > Clegg and Vince Cable for that.

It doesn't matter who is to blame for them, they're a fact of life for today's younger generation, something the Baby Boomers didn't have to worry about...

Survived? Do you me a favour, there's no comparison when it comes to opportunities and starting out in life. Babyboomers, the generation that never had it so good. The first generation to benefit from the State's ethos of 'from the cradle to the grave', with free and easy access to health care and enhanced educational opportunities, when going to University/higher education was for the many not just the privileged few. The post-war social housing boom, and if you wanted to buy your own home it was affordable. Where a job for life meant just that, when paying into a pension was worthwhile. Try telling the decimated communities that is was for the greater good of the nation, and there's you accusing Remainers of living in a 'Metropolitan elite bubble'...oh the irony. Haven't you noticed, people are literally 'getting on their bike' for work, they're called Deliveroo riders, welcome to zero hours and the gig economy, another thing the Babyboomers have never had to deal with. Nowadays many people are prepared to get on low-cost flights too and work in Europe, but for how long? Yes there's been economic ups and downs, but I'd like to see these 'jihadi Brexiteers' trying to start-out in life again now, saddled with debt, generation rent. A decade of cuts and austerity and another one looming...

Going back to the ?36b figure, it's actually quite low compared to other figures being bandied about, the common one being E60b, so not sure why the Gov would be worried enough about it to call an election. Anyway, what I would like to understand more is the role of the Commons votes on all these issues. When it comes to the crunch and they have to vote on the final deal, what is the alternative if it's rejected? Is it a case of accept this deal or we walk away with no deal?...
