  1. While returning from the swimming pool this morning I misjudged a gap
    between the cars at the lights (further up the queue one was slightly out of
    lane) and brushed the mirror of one as I went past. Mr Man inside promptly
    got out and wandered up the jam to yell at me. Unfortunately for him the
    lights changed before he got back to his car.

    Oh dear...

    on a related note, we were touring as a family on tandems and using
    trains (so it was some years ago) and having to go across London. My
    wife forgot that she had two large panniers on the back of her tandem
    and squeezed through a non-existent gap between a taxi and bus, felt a
    bit of resistance, pushed harder, then suddenly the bike (with
    panniers) flew out the other side. Taxi driver was amused, not annoyed.

    Heh. Was there a cartoon "pop!" noise? If not, there's no justice...
