As I have some difficulty cycling anyway how do you imagine a loaded trailer would help? Beats me why you're so worried about Brighton, have you moved there, and how did you move? *Or was this just a holiday, you know, frivolous hyper-mobility that you've often moaned about in the past?

He has previously told us that he does not like travelling in vehicles that use diesel power. He has told us that he would not use a diesel powered train. Most Brighton trains are electric, *I wonder why he did not use one of them? Perhaps he used the most convient method of travel for him, something that he complains if others do. Can anybody think of a word that describes such a person? Does it begin with H? Hippopotamus? |
