  1. The other day I spotted a unicyclist on a BBC programme called "Grumpy
    Old Men" so I quickly pressed record. Below are a couple of screen
    grabs, anyone know him?

    The title of the programme says a lot about the subject but just to set
    the seen at the point they showed the unicyclist the background music is
    "The Who's My Generation" and the voice over is "They are increasingly
    out of step with the world around them."

    ps Grumpy dude is out of touch with the fact that he needs air in that
    tire...

    But I'd be afraid to approach such a grumpy dude.

    I think that should read, "they are increasingly out of step with the
    rest of the world goosestepping around them."
