Sorry for behaving as if this site’s a dating agency.


On a wind cheetah, so you'll recognise me rather than the other way round.
A shortcut has to be a challenge, otherwise it would just be the way. No situation is so dire that panic cannot make it worse.

I came down it last week, and I was right, not nearly as much fun as it should be.

On the brakes all the way down, and stopping from 30mph was "interesting"; I'm glad the driver coming up the hill stopped "early".
