    Ah, 7-NT, please accept my apologies, I was asking in general terms, I meant "this kind of situation", as opposed to this particular situation which happened to today. I was asking if I shoud've offered to give my details as a witness. so I know for future reference.

    Would they not contact me and ask me to give a statement to the Gards? Or, like, I could've hung on until the Gardaí came if yer man had wanted to go down that road (pun firmly intended).

    I dunno. If it went to court I would be a witness so I could give my details to the injured party (unless yer wan somehow blamed him)? I just remember being on a bus years ago and the driver had to jam on which caused some bugger to fall over and the journey was delayed by about 20 minutes...

    I saw a chap coming down Philipsburgh Avenue being hit by a car pulling out on to the road at lunchtime, while I was heading over to the sorting office to pick up a parcel. I'm fairly sure the cyclist, the driver and me standing on the path 10 yards away could all see what was going to happen...

    Yeah, if I was on my laptop and not phone I could translate the whole thread and see....I just fail to see how he could scam me....unless he asks for more details which'd give him access to my paypal/cc......(like there's anything to steal anyway! - otherwise I wouldn't be selling a practically...

    Lads, I've my bike up on Donedeal for super cheap clearance price. Some foreign (I think) lad mailed me for some details about it last night....I fell asleep as it was around midnight. Awoke to this message......tell me if it seems dodge...?? Nice Hearing back from you..I'm quite satisfied with...

    They've published far worse shite in the last couple of years. Call it sad, but a couple of friends of mine had a competition a few years ago to get letters published in the IT. Because back then it was a witty couple of lines, a "is this a first" or else a "I really know what the fuck I'm...

    Geraldine may have paid herself a fat salary but when you see how shit the IT has become since she left she was actually worth double it. My parents had it in the house every day when I was growing up, I bought it daily in college, Saturday mornings used begin with the paper and a nice...

    I use clips with the strap taken out. Keeps my foot in the right place and don't have to worry about stopping suddenly in traffic etc. If I was going for a spin down to Wicklow though I'd use cleats. Huge difference in one's cadence and great for climbing out of the saddle and putting the...

    It's fuck or be fucked out there. I've moved house and now have to cross the city twice a day. It's fun when it's bright, not so much in the dark.

    Came the closest I've ever come to being "doored" this morning. If I hadn't have been paying full attention I'd have been a goner. I whistled as I went round the door, in a "whoo that was close" kind of way. For some reason I'm always totally calm when I've almost been severely injured. I turned...

    Cliff seems sound. The general staff that I encountered were wankers. It's amazing. If some young lad walked into my shop trying to get into playing guitar or taking up cycling to a serious level, or buying some old LPs, I'd relish the chance to look after him and encourage him and make sure...

    Went in there to buy some cycling shoes when I was about 18 and the sniggering assholes working there were the worst kind of record shop/music shop/bike shop/any other specialist shop know-it-all assholes you can imagine. Never went back in.

    This person did you a favour. You were a dick not to go out and tell them thanks for helping you go for a nice boozy read.

    My worst (bike-locking) nightmare. Did you drunkenly emerge from the pub to berate this twerp?

    Well, is it not over hitting a cyclist and then pretty much bragging about it in a tweet? That's pretty fucking bad. Her employer supports cycling and running events in Norfolk, so if I was her boss I would certainly come down hard on her. I'd regard it as social media weeding out a complete...

    Depends on how much credit you have left on your phone. Could you not take a photo and send it to Broadsheet? That seems to be the recommended course of action these days.
