Ok Birdman, but I think there is more to this than simply having a rich benefactor in tow. I guy I know worked in Madrid for the last 12 years and he says that the locals all believe it is not just Perez loosening the purse strings and that it is far more shady than that.

There is of course another name for selfish pavement riding Merchant Bankers, but I'm too much of a shrinking violet to print them here.

We're surprised that a club close to being declared bankrupt suddenly has so much dosh to throw around. Why are you surprised that we are surprised? Something rotten in the state of Denmark, sorry Madrid.

The fact that you say you use the pavement to cycle on regularly means you got what you deserved, cyclists are supposed to use the road, not pavements which are meant for pedestrians. I can't see you've got any reason to complain. Whenever I see a cyclist riding a bike behind me on the pavement I make a pont of walking as slowly as possible and in the middle of the pavement so that the cycle riding idiot can't pass, or if he/she rings a bell or coughs to bring my attention to their presence I either ignore them or give them a few friendly words of advice, depending on how how grumpy I am at the time.

Something stinks to high heaven here. Would be great if all these galaticos don't gel together as a team and they win bugger all.

His role in "Patton - Lust for Glory" was my favourite.

You call that harsh, I used have all my limbs choped off, head chopped off, fed to the lions, burnt at the stake, and sent off to bed without any tea. Young uns today they don't know they're born. I'm off to race my whippet and feed my pigeons.

Let's hope next time she falls over she doesn't break anything minor.
