Bike 600

Author: 

Well who would have thought I'd still be churning out this stuff more than eighteen months later? I know I write the stuff, Bonzi has a problem hitting the keys on a laptop - but I have little control over the characters, they just do what they do and I watch and write it down. This goes to prove that I'm totally bonkers, I suppose, nothing new there then.

Stories Posted Elsewhere

Author: 

Why can't authors posting stories which have been previously posted, state that and where they've been posted. I'm all in favour of recycling, and have posted stuff here that appeared elsewhere but have usually said so. Why can't others do the same?

Mark Cavendish,(the 'Manx Express') the Columbia High Road sprinter has just taken his second consecutive stage win in the Tour Of California. At the end he left the others including Tom Boonen, for dead. He is on absolutely cracking form. This is his 32nd stage win in two years as a professional, bring on the TdF!

Gabi having puter problems

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

My good friend and editor, Gabi Bunton, has had ISP problems and thus not been online for a few hours - a position I hope is very temporary - hence the lack of her involvement last night. Hopefully it should be fixed today some time.

Something New.

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

I'm working on a story which will be a one off, unless I post it in two parts. It will be different from anything else I've written and darker than my usual stuff. It's also a crime story. I have no idea when I'll get around to finishing it yet, I've done a first draft of about a tenth of it, but I won't be posting it in chapters and it won't be posted until it's completed. It will be posted here. That's it.

New Search Facilities

Author: 

Gosh, aren't we lucky bunnies? For those of you who haven't explored the new sections in searches, do and be impressed. The stories are in alphabetical order - although why their seems to be more pages for stories starting with letter E, I'm not sure, it's KP and her Edumacation serial, I s'pect.

Saunier Duval.

Author: 

It occurred to me, that those non-cyclists who read Bike, might not have a clue what I'm talking about when I mention Saunier Duval (a cycling team - now defunct) and David Millar, a British rider who has been a national champion at road and time trial racing.

A picture is supposed to be worth a thousand words:

Kate Craig-Wood in the Guardian.

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

After her appearance on Midweek (BBC Radio4) a few weeks ago, she's now in Guardian Weekend - the Guardian's glossy magazine, with a far from flattering photo. Not quite sure what she hopes to achieve apart from explaining how she spent  £60,000 on surgery - I'd want a spare body for that, still some of us have to succeed without facial surgery or voice training.

Judge for yourselves. http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2009/jan/24/experienc...

Author: 

There was a very nice obituary written for this very talented transsexual conductor and arranger, in today's Guardian, link below. She wrote music for the BBC and films, and helped arrange music for such notables as John Williams in Star Wars and Superman.

Computer Virus

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

While I was washing up after dinner, my computer anti-virus software picked up a nasty, which it has dealt with. I have no idea whence it came, any more than I understand the minds which create them. I suspect that they are created by adolescent minds - irrespective of actual age, and are probably male. I'm not sure whether I want to punish them severely or pity them. As no harm was done, maybe the latter this time, on previous occasions it has caused damage and I didn't feel so amicable.

Next episode of Totally Insane should be finished as soon as we can get Kylie out of the loo, she got locked in. Only joking, it's nearly drafted, so should be posted towards the end of the week. So if you're planning a holiday....

Achille's Heel.

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

Those of you who read my sagas will have observed the regular occurrence of the ersatz complaint, either at the protagonists or by them in a self declaration. I see it in the works of other authors as well, and I've also known it in real life with other transgendered people. It's a very common phenomenon -- the feeling that despite all your inner drivings, you're still different to biological women (or men) and therefore inferior.

Bonzi 'n' her, wish our readers a very merry Christmas

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

Neither Bonz nor I can believe you've allowed us to continue this tale for so long. In fact, you've stopped me from finishing it once or twice. So here we are at episode 500, with loads of plot lines to follow, assuming that is the general wish of the readership - all three of you - that Bonzi and I continue boring the pants off you and contributing towards the respite of severe insomnia in some readers.

So we'll keep going a bit longer if required. Until then, from the Bonz and his mum - A Very Merry Christmas to you all.

Saving mankind from Homosexuality & Transsexuality

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

The Pope has urged the Catholic Church to stop the slide into blurring of sex roles and to stop the destruction of mankind through homosexuality and transsexuality. He rubbishes gender theory which is an artificial concept.

He doesn't however rubbish the myths and fairy tales his whole empire is built on. How much longer have we got to stand by while these out of touch imbeciles pronounce on issues they neither understand nor have any right to speak about?

Bike 484

Author: 

I honestly don't know if I shall post tonight, I feel quite wretched and my sinuses and eyes are quite painful. I know it's only a heavy cold, but I really do feel yuck. I know I should have a better antivirus program.

Bonzi won't stand in for me, his toes are still sore from yesterday - besides his writing is better than mine and I don't need upstaging by a cat, however clever he is.

I'm going back to bed.

Hugs,

Angharad.
