Nigh on unbelievable now, but these actually existed.

When radium was first discovered it seemed so mysterious and exciting that it must somehow be good for you - it was crow-barred into an array of means of ingestion, including fags. Radium Cigarettes - Jesus.

The Rules

I like to ride both Mountain Bikes and Road Bikes. When asked which I prefer the answer is "They are different, but I can't really choose - I would miss either if I were to stop"

To explain the differences, here are the 64 Road Bike Rules and the 2 Mountain Bike Rules.

Good luck with that

Loyalty schemes, particularly airmiles, bug me.

Non-remittance, which is to say people who are too dim or lazy to chase up the rewards, are part of the careful corporate calculations.

Thus I end up paying a bit more for fares, indirectly subsidising hardworking intelligent people.

It is with delight that I note that loyalty schemes are slowly being watered down. I guess this is because the hoi polloi are becoming more determined to remit their claims.

Thank you all, keep up the good work.
