How far would you go for a good idea?

In my day job as creative head of our ad agency, I spend some of my time thinking of ideas. I’ve been doing it for long enough not to be scared by the blinking cursor but still, anything that brings better ideas more easily is good. Especially if it means I can justify what I had always thought was an irrelevant (if enjoyable) sideline.

I like writing and I like to travel; the length of time it took me to work out that travel writing was quite a good way of combining the two is therefore somewhat embarrassing.

Why cyclists can't turn on each other.

I’m writing this lying down with my laptop balanced on my left knee and a generous supply of painkillers nearby. I came off my bike on my way to work, landing on my right hip and breaking my pelvis in several places. It’ll take a year to heal. 

And the reason I came off the bike? I was pushed, deliberately, in front of witnesses and cameras, by another cyclist.
