Dunno,
Ladypig got knocked off her bike earlier in the week, so is all trussed up in a neck brace and that, so probably no weekend excitement. Might sneak out for a couple of beers. Probably just relax, been a hell week this week.
Alt: I hope you're joking. I enjoyed Back books. Dunno if I'd say best though.

Serious question
If Mrs Ladypig has limited vision, should she be on a bike?

Well, she seems to cope fine normally,
Sticks to routes with clearly marked cycle lanes. A fella stepped off the pavement in front of her, I don't think seeing properly would prevent that. But I do worry about her cycling, but it's her only form of transport that she can rely on to get places efficiently in ox.

Yeah, she had a helmet and decent cycling gloves do got away with whiplash and bruising.
When I first saw her cycling I was terrified for her, but she seems to have found a way to use what little she can see as well as listening out. She cycles faster and better than me.

Isn't Oxford full of cobbles?
Hardly perfect for cycling, i would have thought.
Then again, I've only been there once, and just to the colleges part, and my memory is shit at the best of times.

Fucking cyclists are everywhere in Oxford.
It's like trying to drive in Ho Chi Minh city.

I guess I'm used to it,
I have noticed a pronounced lack of cycles in other cities as I drive around.
I'm in Andover today, doesn't seem to be any people, let alone bicycles.

The one thing I will say is that they're not as suicidal as the London variety.
Not that it's much comfort when you're picking bits of Raleigh out of your grill.

Safer than a bike self steering innit
and much cooler as well, you could buy her a poncho and hat to go with it.

One Foot in the Grave, I think is brilliantly written and acted.
Anything more recent, I'd say Nighty Night.

Yeah,
Fella stepped off the pavement without looking, she swerved to avoid him and through sheer bad luck her back tire was caught by the car behind and sent her flying. Helmet saved her from a much nastier accident.
