Heather, I was about to post a link to the Queen track Bicycle Race on YouTube, but it requires age verification as "This video or group may contain content that is inappropriate for some users, as flagged by YouTube's user community." Pity.

Not to worry. I'll play the track here and imagine the video...

You wanted advice, Heather? That possibly sums it up. Why do you want one?

Well, Best Beloved is no spring chicken, what with age and sight problems and all. We're off to Stony Stratford for a few days, and if there's one thing Milton Keynes is rather good at it's cycle paths. As BB isn't able to drive any more, our trip is going to revolve around a lot of parking so we can visit the places we want. We were talking about borrowing a couple of bikes, and then hit on the idea of a tandem as an eminently sensible option for the pair of us. Obviously, we won't get one for this trip, but it's certainly something we'd be interested in down the line. If it means we can both get out in the fresh air, get a little fitter, and get to places you can't quite reach in a car, then it's definitely something I'd like to know more about.

You make it sound delightful. I have no information to proffer, but I admire your thinking

You're referring to the redway paths, which were one of thwe many things I liked about Milton Keynes. A tandem would make sense, and... I'm wondering if hiring one would be an option...? Might be worth investigating...

If you want to pull the lame excuse of "I dont modify it, it's what the manager wants" you can't use the "I'm not changing it, it's how I do it, it's not my code, I just copy and paste it"
In fact you can't pull the 2nd...ever
(Lamest excuse for not fixing any email address validation or null ref exceptions ever)
