    Apparently Friday's child is loving and giving. Right now AVC have
    been doing some serious taking from my credit card to pay for one of
    Friday's children to be built up to my spec and delivered to sunny
    Reading: http://www.foldingbikes.co.uk/bf_tandem_twos_day.htm in
    banana yellow, Pete's choice. The dual-drive 24 version.

    Looks like the triplet is sold (tearful farewells all round).

    So, as previously announced, the bike shed will contain one seat less
    in short order.

    The Two's Day is particularly handy as the rear triangle can be swung
    under inna Brompton stylee leaving the bike short enough to go across
    the back of a car on a carrier, although I'll have to instantiate a
    shed object for long enough to molish an adapter of some kind.

    So there's yet another on-topic good news story, not cross-posted to
    uk.tosspot! My but we're getting good at this :-)

    I saw a recumbent Brompton conversion today. Apparently there are at
    least two in Cambridge.

    Have you just won the pools or something? Is this a policy of a new bike
    every week or what?

    I wish. Yes, BF prices are a bit *gulp*, aren't they? We've been
    putting it off for a while, but the triplet does not work for the
    school run any more as Michael is too big to be comfortable with
    Felicity on the front (he and she now have the same sized solos).
    There was a tear in my eye as I watched it go, though - it's a bit
    like selling the cot, it says that a certain phase of their childhood
    has gone, never to return.

    I went to see a consultant medic chappie last Friday and he admired my
    Brom; he said his bike didn't fold up quite as small but it had a case
    which could be turned into a trailer for towing luggage...

    So you went to see a consultant on Friday not on a Friday?

    But it sounds as if the consultant had a Friday too.

    Maybe or it could have been a Twosday or a SatRday, both of which are
    Fridays as well I suppose.
