    You can usually admire it from afar. If it's an Orange Day, you'll see an orange glow on the road just as he exits Lambeth BR.

    Hasn`t Stephen Fry gone awfully fat since then and whatever happened to the other guy?

    Ah yes, but just because you're legally allowed to do something doesn't mean it's a good idea.

    For example, I'm legally allowed to pull some fit burd who's 17 and a tiny bit (phwoar, obviously).

    But I don't think my wife would approve.

    But you didn't say you think its a bad idea though, did you?

    :wink::wink:

    I think that any argument with Mrs G66 over this that began with me saying "But dear, it's all just a question of perspective" would not end well. :mrgreen:

    I don't encounter too many ltraffic lights, and I don't usually filter past the 2 or 3 cars queued at them, but there are times I do. Am I technically RLJ'ing if I filter past them, and park myself in the middle of the lane, but obviously in front of the white line that the lead car was stoped at (there is no ASL)?
    Regardless of trivialities like the law, am I to burn in cycling hell for doing that?

    No.

    All right. One more thing.

    Don't play the martyr Headhuunter.

    Furthermore, we're all actually nice people, and while we can't all agree on everything it doesn't get in the way of a beer and a laugh.

    Stephen Fry's lost 6st recently, he looks very slim indeed. Hugh Laurie has a very successful spot as 'House' on the show with the same name.

    Nice.

    I've got the older ones, with none of that white strip silliness or intrusive red flash:

    No, indeed, Greg must be incorrect. We never go off topic 'round here, no siree.

    And yeah, despite their talk about lifting the DRM I still don't appear to be able to play iTunes tracks on my windows mobile phone. Well, not easily anyway.

    And yeah, it was great! :D
