Sometimes
you hear a town's name and immediately you have a mental image of
it. Today the ride was set to finish in Shirley which let's face
is it is not Monaco or Florence. Sadly the image didn't disappoint.
Of all the place visited on the ride it has been by far the worst
and in that I include all towns travelled through.
The
live TV broadcast tonight was halted because of yobbish behaviour
and tomorrow mornings has been cancelled because a suitable alternative
location can't be found. I'm sorry, but what does that say?
As
if that wasn't enough Jane stepped outside the Indian Restaurant
where they were eating tea to phone home only for a group of men
to recognise her and moon at her. For anyone who has not been there,
don't bother you've missed nothing.
Very
fortunately the ride will move on tomorrow, and Shirley will be
just a bad memory.
