Simple Simon [now there's another pantomime stalwart, if ever there was
one] said:

"Speed limits do not apply to cyclists save for a very few exceptions".

And I responded:

"The laws of physics and the anatomy of the human body, on the other
hand, always apply to cyclists, as difficult as some of them find to
accept that, especially when the risk accrues to other people who are
doing such outrageous [things] such as walking out of the garden gates
onto the footway, or crossing the road".

I'll give you a hint. This time, pay particular attention to the use of
the word "or".


Yes, it's still there at the top, never snipped. You admit that Simon's
statement of fact made you think about two publicised events. Then you
must think there is a connection. Blether and bluster as much as you
will though it is always in your nature to make a mistake then try and
cover it with an exponential increase in the number of words.

Here's your chance. What point were you trying to make by replying to
Simon? Try to leave out irrelevant stuff.
