Traffic lights, a cyclist jumping a red light is unlikely to kill someone, a driver cutting a cyclist will. Now I agree if a cyclist is endangering others by doing so is bad and should be punished. If however, they are jumping a light to get ahead of the traffic so they don't get caught up in it when the lights turn green, this surely is safer for everyone? Furthermore, show me a driver who doesn't break speed limits, even by 1 or 2 mph... It's still breaking the law, now, I think we can agree that's probably not unsafe, so lets not get our knickers in a twist about minor traffic violations. Riding side by side is actually safer for everyone than if they were in a line. A cyclist is entitled to the entire carriageway so a car should only pass if the other lane is clear to do so (as they would if it was a small car), so riding side by side actually makes the overtake shorter and therefore safer. It is also safer for the cyclists as the driver is forced to make a safe pass. This is particularly the case on narrow roads where drivers may try to squeeze through. Riding is the dark without lights is frucking stupid I totally agree, equally cyclists without helmets on or any form of high vis apparel. Changing lane without signalling I agree can be annoying but if you're behind the cyclist you should be a safe distance away to notice the lane change, furthermore, many car drivers do this. I understand where you're coming from, some cyclists are dicks, equally some motorists are dicks, and there are a lot more motorists than cyclists on the road, ergo, more dickhead motorists that cyclists on the road. (I appreciate this maths is flawed but you get my point)

Nobody should ever be in access. Nothing good will ever come of it.

Just google it! There's a million youtube videos etc that will explain it. vLookups are incredibly straight forward. But start with a blank sheet and make a simple example, the biggest mistake people make when doing this sort of thing is try and go straight in with the big spreadsheet. Then once you've done that and made a whole industry around flaky excel spreadsheets, go see a developer and get the solution provided on an appropriate platform.

"bit off a nob"... The guy could have easily killed me if I hadn't have jammed on my brakes, the lorry was about a foot away from my right foot and shoulder and if I hadn't have slowed right down I would have gone under the wheels and likely be dead. I would suggest "bit off a nob" is an understatement to say the least. I don't understand the bloody cyclists commandment of drivers. I have (as a road user) have equal right to the carriageway, my journey to work is faster by bike than by car (and I take the same route), so I am not holding anyone up. Now, if there is a stretch of road where it is not safe to pass me, I will make sure cars do not pass me by cycling defensively, you may have to slow to my speed for that section of road, this is going to be no more than a couple of minutes, chill out, don't worry about it, if you're in that much of a rush you should have left earlier. That lorry had plenty of room to pass me safely, but he chose to not look in his inside mirror and see if he had passed me before moving in. This quite simply is dangerous driving. I film every trip I make on my bike for exactly these reasons. I've had lots and lots of times where people have cut me up and made me slow or change direction to avoid a collision. This generally is annoying, but nothing more than that. This case was properly dangerous. "Bloody Cyclists lol" Motorists who have no experience of cycling seem to think it is reasonable to pass a cyclist 2 feet away. It is not. I can't imagine anyone is generally happy with 2 tonnes (or more) of metal shooting past them at 30mph 2 feet away. Give space. Pass safely. If you can't fit, wait. It's very simple.

Yep, and the police! I've had a lot of 'moments' on my bike, usually a bit close or turning in front of me, these are annoying, but this one was properly scary. Had to hit the brakes hard not to get squashed, I didn't really see the funny side to be honest.

My cycle to work on Thursday contained a brown trousers moment... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgI4LrhDCWo

My Dad. When did you last give blood?

Not so much a blonde moment but more a navigation issue... Driving from England to Spain... So popped through the Eurotunnel... All good... Started heading off. Should probably point out this was before we had sat navs! And heading in the direction we thought we should be going, all seemed well and having a jolly nice drive, then everything got urban... very quickly... this was unexpected... we quickly realised we had no idea where we were at all, my girlfriend was scrabbling around with maps trying to work out road names and points of interest to find out where we were, I was working out from the Sun which direction we were travelling in... and then we see the Arc de Triomphe ahead of us... We're in Paris... Ah... Bugger...

Started typing responses on forum posts that frankly... were just unnecessary... So didn't hit the post button. Hate in when I'm in moods like this, just tired and spiky.

New chapter... All is well.

How can anyone possibly know, it's pure speculation based on nothing It has no concept of down's syndrome, it's just a cute caring dog, you're reading way more into it than is there. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against dogs or cute videos of them, but dogs (and every other animal below us in the food chain) are stupid. Their behaviour is based on survival and domestic dogs (especially breeds eugenically derived) have found certain behaviours (being cute and loving and needy) are beneficial to survival. We humans react well to that and feed and love them back (generally, unless you're an arsehole). It's nothing more than that!

I don't really understand what is being demonstrated with this video. Equally you could have a dog mauling a child with the caption "god doesn't make mistakes" So sure, some dogs are soppy loved up beasties and others are crazy nutters. Cute video though.

I just have a fear of heights (which isn't actually vertigo) but I basically I get a feeling of dizziness, sometimes to the extent I feel I need to sit down and just readdress the world around me (which you might have seen me do a couple of times in that video).
