Finally, after a long time and many years of hurt at the hands of the cruel OLPAS system, I have secured a pupillage.

The frustrated applicant is no longer frustrated!

Hooray!

Any regular* readers will notice two new things on the Blog.

1. This post.
2. A couple of new links in the elegantly titled Blogroll.

This is because I have been enjoying the delights of cycling related blogging.
Since taking part in the Mayor of London's "Skyride" I have been looking into the increasing number of 'retro' or 'classic' cycling blogs; these celebrate the notion that just because one is using a bike does not lead to becoming a lycra-clad berk with a red face, bulging calves and excess amounts of raging bile for ALL other road users.

The lovely people at both sites also have a healthy admiration for Pashleys, which, as an owner of a Roadster Classic, I have to praise.

In the fullness of time I intend to post a more thorough run-down of my thoughts on my bike and how it has altered both my view of London and my waistline. The delightful lady at Lovely Bicycle! has already posted a number of very helpful reviews regarding her Princess "Eustacia Vye" and I hope to borrow from her style of writing, which I find very pleasant to read and instructive in its content.

To be continued...

* This is of course impossible, as I am not a regular blogger and I doubt any real person reads this drivel. (I know the spambots love it though - hullo to you by the way, please can I have some more lovely email about my EU lottery win and the money from that nice Nigerian cabinet minister?)
