Those pic's are great. Really whetted the appetite for my trip :-)

All the ones that I like seem to be 'Men's'. If there's no difference in fit I'm quite happy with masculine headwear.

If you are going to buy a helmet how important is the gender of the helmet? Are men's heads that different to women's? Or is it mainly a style thing? If the helmet is the right size is this enough for safety concerns?

Sorry, I hope the key turns up.

Not sure if this can be done where you are. But I have heard that if you have a four digit number from your key you can order a spare much cheaper. If not someone who knows what they are doing can break into your car and find the number. If you can get this done it could save on tow costs.

How is that relevant? Points are either agreed with or disagreed with. Whether anyone smokes or not doesn't make them righter or wronger.

Edit: That response makes me think my post was aimed at you. It wasn't, it was my thoughts on all the previous posts.

I always find it strange that if someone were to sit in other people's company and repeatedly fart they would be seen as rude. It wouldn't smell nice but there would be no health risks to the other people nearby. No-one has ever defended this behaviour to me.

If I were to light up a cigarette, which smells unpleasant, leaves a residual smell on the clothing of others and causes harm to the health of people in the vicinity, not just the carcinogenic side, there are other problems too, such as asthmatics. Some people will defend my right of choice 'til they're blue in the face.

If the hospitality industry had regulated itself a ban would have been much less likely. It refused to spend anything on self regulation. The ban came into effect. Pubs have spent plenty on smokers shelters, heaters, etc. Maybe they could have spent something on the 3/4 of their clients who didn't smoke a few years earlier?

All non-smoking areas I ever came across were a small minority of seating/floor space. Despite the majority of customers being non-smokers. Smokers are a vocal minority with a habit that is harmful to the health of others. Surely that harm merits a little consideration for others rather than an aggressive hard-done-to demeanour?

The first pub/restaurant in my town to ban smoking did a huge trade. Lots of smokers went in too. Volunteering to step outside to smoke.
