    Unregulated public transport in London. Why is it allowed?

    Two people seriously injured in a pedicab accident.
    It's a miracle people aren't hurt in these things every day.
    Why is it that drivers in London are crucified by the Mayor and his car & van hating cronies, yet pedicab drivers (and cyclists) can do as they please, many of them breaking every rule of the road and injuring pedestrians - unprotected by licences, standards, registration or insurance.

    I'm sick of seeing discarded e-bikes littering our streets.
    But worse than that are these totally unregulated yet completely legal tricycle cabs.
    Khan, you're a disgrace.

    Beef is 24% more expensive than a year ago.
    Butter is 19% more expensive.
    Bad news if you're not a vegan...

    Ditto. When I eat meat I like to know where it came from.

    I wish I had the willpower to go vegetarian, the killing of an animal and all that.

    No problem with killing an animal for food, but intensive factory farming is barbaric.

    Bad news for Watford too. They score less than we do :emoticon-0104-surpr
    time for another manager there methinks...

    EDIT: Watford have actually scored one more than us :emoticon-0111-blush but conceded 7 against our 5 (3 of those being against QPR).

    True... but Liverpool losing <applause>
    A silver lining, and good for the Prem as a competition...

    Crikey.

    Apparently the latest Health & Safety advice is to not throw sticks for you dog to collect.
    In freak circumstances the stick might penetrate the inside of the dog's mouth.
    Not being a dog owner it's something I haven't encountered. But that has to be a pretty rare event.

    Dogs love to bring things back.
    A tennis ball perhaps?
    Though isn't there a chance some dogs (of a certain size) swallowing the ball?
