AS PREDICTED, more sermons from our cycling enthusiasts.

Please, gentlemen, anyone who reads The Press letters page knows your views by now. Give us a break.

We know we should walk, cycle, exercise. We know that relaxing with a cigarette and a glass of wine or a pint is risky behaviour and nights out with the lads or lasses should be strictly curtailed.

Daily we are exhorted to avoid cakes, biscuits, crisps and hamburgers. We know. Enough.

If we all eat our broccoli and avoid chocolate fudge cake, and leave the car we paid HP on for years at home, we will be healthier, but I am reminded of the old joke: “You may not live any longer, but it will seem a lot longer.”
