  1. I don;t follow Coronation Street, but was just flicking idly
    between channels. Am I imagining things, or were Jack and
    Vera Duckworth arguing about Jack having to do a 200 mile
    bike ride?

    Is Corrie being topical with Bike Week?

    No, it's Vera worrying about his heart. The bike in question
    is an exercise bike so the trip will be virtual. In one
    scene they were outside and someone did push a bike past so
    maybe there is a hint of Bike Week.

    God! What could be more tedious than a '200 mile' 'trip' on
    an exercise bike?

    Doing 200 milles on an exercise bike without a good book on
    the handlebars or the telly switched on in front of you.

    has some real excitement like virtually missing a Turkish
    earthquake by a week.
