    I <i>might</i> not be commuting next week as my wife could go into labour at any time (although this would be a wee bit early). [:0] When that happens I will be having a 3 week holiday...... ok maybe not a holiday[:0][:)]

    Mag, I work in westminster and I biked in all the time even when she was overdue. I live in Essex, 15 mile commute.

    The tube takes 70 minutes and is not reliable, my bike takes 50 minutes + washinf time. Even if I had a pucture I knew it would take 5 minutes to fix. ( I carry spare tubes)

    15 * 2 * 5
    * 46 = Happiness

    Cupoftea,

    I will still be commuting right up until she pops! The 3 weeks off is for when the baby is here! I might use the car to take her to hospital though... [:D]

    I've just had a picture of my wife in labour sitting on the hamax child seat on the back of the bike enter my head....[:p][:D][:0]

    It's Friday and I've just been awarded a grant give me some slack....[:D]

    Lucky Buggar, I'm so jealous [;)]

    I've been off the bike this week because I had a slight strain, cant wait to get back on it again

    If I had a baby elephant, who would take it for walks?

    Magnatom, the question on my mind is are you going to be wearing your helmetcam? LOL!

    Good luck, post up on here as soon as you have any details. (But please God not the video!!!)

    If I had a baby elephant, I'd teach it to skate.

    I never thought about that. What a good idea.....[:D]

    Of course I don't expect to come across any buses in the maternity ward, but you never know!

    Number two is due on the 18th so it might be a wee while yet. However, if I suddenly disapear for a day or two (or four) that's why!!

    You might not find any buses, but you'll be able to drive one up sideways afterwards.
