Hardly any around the Lagoon in Cairns. They must have bought their bikinis at a 50% off sale. Obviously the top half was off:rofl::rofl:

And don't get me started about the topless ones, even more of a danger to a cyclist!

That's why there are shady trees with seating around the Lagoon. You can safely sit down and be distracted with no risk of colliding with anything. If you are with the missus that could result in a long sharp pain to the head.

Of course there are always the Japanese cyclists:eek::eek::eek::rofl:

ABC - your problem is that you have learned how to be happy. Most people, especially those younger, have not. They don't altogether believe it is even possible or even desirable. Only those who reach this happy state will understand.

Same goes for you Moneypen.

I too take pride in being labelled eccentric, odd, old, out of touch. And I love shoes.

Long way to go though, don't you have girls in Bayside?

The foreshore at Raby Bay just isnt the place when compared to the Lagoon:D

Did they ever demolish the building that was supposedly collapsing on the Raby Bay foreshore opposite Coles?

Grammar, the grammar here winds me up. I saw when out biking the other day stickers attached to the 'bicycles only' signs saying 'Skater's excepted'. That wound me up exactly who is Skater and what does Skater have that is excepted? I'm so tempted to go out with a pot of tippex and take out the apostrophe.

And why do they put semi-colons after bullet point lists? doesn't the whole thing of a bullet pointed list put the parsing in there?

And it does make my life crap because I have to review reports with that in it :mad:

Still, whenever I feel as if I am starting to get wound up I just sit back in my chair, look out the window at the blue sky and think which beach to go to this weekend :thumbsup:
