But I know it's not for everybody, and there is no shame in not going - it doesn't make you a bad person. It's the strangling of kittens that makes you bad.
Thank you for your contribution,on this tread excellent.

Never done that but can't make my mind up why...especially after the number of RTA's and such like I've attended

Why would RTA's make you strangle kittens?

Not my best cycle in to work, too windy and it'll be worse on the way home. Swallowed a fly and then two minutes later, as I was passing the works exit gate a colleague pulled out on me - only just seeing and stopping in time, then she hung back whilst I indicated that I was turning across her path and she accelerated as I started turning!

On the upside I've just finished importing the entire back catalogue of Pink Floyd (and individual's works - except David Gilmour's latest album) into iTunes -
