You looked very young magnatom. Could have thrown some mud on your face or summat.

But then, I have entered the twilight zone where policemen look too young.

I always get told that I look younger than I am! I will be 36 (years old!) in a few months (not that old I know, but older than I look!). I've got two young kids though, so I am now aging two days for every one!

 

[magnatom]

Bollo, I assume you mean a business proposition! At least I hope that is what you mean!

I should point out that the photos for this article were taken by my wife. She will accept commissions with a rider and bike package starting at £150 for an hour session...

Admit it, you've got make up on (and you shaved twice!).

Fair enough - but in the end I've decided that that sort of thing should stay up on youtube. I feel that there's still benefit to be had from leaving it up because others will see the video, and the result from complaining about it.

I've no problem with people doing what they will with videos and I think dangerous driving should be advertised. There's the odd one of mine up there where I've had words, got nothing back so I've left it up.

For the incident I mentioned above, the response of the MD was exactly right and he deserved some recognition for dealing with it. Like Mag's bus campaign, cameras can be used as a catalyst for improved treatment on the roads as well as a stick to beat drivers with.

So I'm not expecting a purlitzer prize.....not yet anyway!

Could you post the piece here, my copy has not arrived yet.

You might not get a Pulitzer, but I'd second your nomination for a Purlitzer...

 

[Bollo]

I've nominated you for a .........



Wurlitzer! Coat's on.

Bollo, are you vying with me for worst post ever? (Not that it really matters, Col's haiku has just knocked both of our efforts into a cocked hat).

That's me zits and all! It's all this exercise that's keeping me looking young. That and the Clarins. It protects me from the MRI scanners...

'Cycle' delivered this morning. Out of respect it shall not be placed in the toilet with the others to be perused by the incontinent. Briefly-seriously, nice article and I hope it will start off a bit of a debate within the CTC. I'm surprised nothing's appeared on the CTC forum yet. For me, it would have been especially nice to have a sidebar from the CTC briefs about the legal issues or lack of.

I'd like to see how good that Clarins stuff is against 511keV gamma-rays.

 

[Crackle]

So, not being a CTC member. How do I get to see this wonderful article?

I'll see if I can get you a digital copy. Not sure about the wonderful though...

Oh my God... you didn't just pimp your Wife out for 150 notes an hour, did you????

Actually I wrote a semi-serious e-mail asking things like 'should MRI staff be worried about the aging effects of MRI scanners? If a patient is wearing it, will we fail to see their head?' etc. I got some 'science' back (I use the word 'science' very loosely here!) It made me laugh!

Is that an offer?....
