Wonder what York will come up with this year? I see the Shambles have some pretty twinkly lights. I was most impressed by Fenwick's window (in Newcastle) It was delightful and attracted a large group of people just looking and watching the reindeer and toys. Really Lovely

I'll stick a few more lights on my bike and pedal round York, if that will help........

Instead of idiotic comments which bring cycling into every story, can the pedalling bore justify his involvement with a congestion and pollution causing a open top tourist bus?

Better idea Paul, I've always said you should be on the stage. You and me could star in our own panto version of Punch and Judy. I can play punch, you can annoy me as usual and each time you mention your bike I will bray you with my level. The armed police will turn up firing wildly in your defence but I will escape dressed as a horse. The police will then blame you for your own injuries and grass you up to Bupa so they refuse to treat you. You will then get eaten by a real crocodile, which has swum to York due to climate change caused by "uneccessary car use" and my Transit van.

PP - Sticking one up your farce would be more entertaining.
