    Why is it inevitable that it will be untimely?

    Have you got any nylon strung Classic guitars or a Macaferri?

    Mrs is quite small in weight and height at least...

    Unfortunately no nylon strings, I have a nice Taylor acoustic though? The rest are all electrics aside from a twelve string I bought recently

    Pah. 56 minutes NW1 to Bromley. Big girly Southern breeze :)

    How far*?
    *Roundabouts, Junctions and traffic lights taken into consideration.
    Just short of 12 miles. Only 64 sets of traffic lights....

    I got bored one day...also makes my time look a bit better for the distance. Although I can usually manage the ride into work in the low 50's as its downhill :wink: and the traffic is better in the morning in the centre of town. Riding god, me :D

    Dunno - I only counted the total once. Sometimes the luck is with you, sometimes not.

    Funny you should say that, I had that very thought but was too chicken to post it.

    So Stevo, are we counting pelican crossings? This could be thread of the year in commuting.

    And I thought you worked in City!?

    Nope, not counting Pelicans - it was hard enough keeping count of all the bloody lights and not end up under a lorry. But if I'm feeling really geeky tomorrow I might give it a go :)

    Been a 'Westender' work-wise for a long time - we're technically in NW1 but it's only a stones throw from W1 so quite handy for a lot of stuff.

    I was surprised by how far West you work, it's right on the Northern borders of civilisation though.
