    Only 120 years? Why not 120 000 years?

    Crikey!

    I remember the gleeful comments of ‘Arise, Sir Wiggo’ on the group before he was honoured. I merely wondered what shape any feet of clay might be in.


    I note from the article that Wiggins is suggesting legal action on his
    behalf. Anyone know Mr Arsehole’s phone number? A good technicality might well help here. What’s the financial equivalent of ‘blinded by the low sun’?

    Road.cc has yet to publish in this story. I can’t wait to read the comments…

    When an American federal court wants to send someone to prison for
    "life", they really *mean* it.
