On my ride home the other night, it occurred to me that there are NOT as many Christmas decorations up so far this year. Probably has something to do with that little election thing going on! But something else popped into my furry head...
There are many, many buildings (houses in particular) which are right next to or above our Roads. The owners &/or rentors should be obligated to decorate for the Holidays. If you own or live by the side of the road...most often by your own choice...you are obviously interested in Seeing or Being Seen by the masses. If so, why not decorate your edifice for the holidays?
BELCO already subsidize their poorly-entered Competition every year, so why can't Govt. join in & further subsidize homeowners? It would certainly be a nice way to show each other that we ALL love Christmas & can love it TOGETHER as a Nation.

Vehicles of All Sizes
Saw a good example of the vast differences in Car Widths this a.m.
A cyclist on N. Shore at 7:30 (which everyone knows drives me nuts!) was being passed. There were several Diawoo Matiz-sized cars which went ALL the way over the Line - ie. all 4 tires - just to get around said cyclist, then the CRV's which almost clipped the poor guy with their side view mirror.
If your car is incapable of sharing the road with the rest of us, it doesn't belong here!
Speaking of widths, the newest Buses have been out on the roads recently. I went by one last night, on the deadly corner above Gibbett's Island & the MoFo was over the line BUT I could hear the bushes (?) getting hit on the other side, it was so wide!
Now I understand that the PLP are planning on making Bus Travel FREE (to what segment of the commuter population, I don't know), so I assume that the next set of Buses will be SO wide, that they won't be able to pass each other.
