Smart arse barristers on minimum wage?

Everything. I am one of those hoarding types that has only 5 cubic inches of living space left.

The pub in the village expressed an interest in buying some from me if I had a good crop. I hope their customers like tomatoes!

I now have 75 tomato plants!

Well, much as I'd love to drive my new car somewhere I have an ear infection and feel a bit wobbly, so won't risk either driving or cycling. My life is strewn with cowpats from the Devil's own herd!

My Nokia 3310 can do that? (And I'm not joking!)

Also consider that a lot of the stuff about for low prices is counterfeit, often very difficult to tell apart from the original without careful comparison.

The tyre contact patch does indeed move unless you are doing one long continuous trackstand, and that movement is akin to the movement of your palm in the pub trick. The principle of control by shifting a heavy mass above point and the laws of physics are the same in both cases. Move that mass...

Indeed, you shift yourself on the bike and the bike beneath you. I teach these skills.

CoG and cycling can be counter intuitive, particularly where low speed control and agility is concerned. Try the old pub trick. Take a broom, balance it in the palm of your hand vertically on the end of its handle. If you're not too sloshed you can keep it up for a good period of time, perhaps...

You can't beat a good double-entendre. It's what made Britain Great.

I have a stiff link every time Thora Hird is on TV. Phwooaaarrrr.

I think perhaps you missed the tongue in cheek in my post, but bravo for a good effort.

Bargain!!!
