@Victor-Meldrew imagine being so scornful of fate as the two blokes who went back to Nigeria.

Great little story.

With a nose ring at 52 she was trying too hard to be cool at the detriment of trying too hard to do her job
Lucky she was only struck off

Without reading the article, that sounds rather fair?

Probably not awesome, but I found it interesting nonetheless.
Easily believable. I've got a video somewhere of me lane-splitting between lines of trucks carting coal to a power station in China. It lasts about 10 minutes, and it was constant bumber-to-bumper filthy red coal trucks.
Just checked my blog to see if I had a photo of them, but instead found this snippet:I am meaning to look up how many trucks there are in China – and specifically, the red ones, and whether they are perhaps state-owned.
Today – many, many red trucks – the majority carting coal.
I don’t know how many red trucks I overtook – it would probably be hundreds. I do know how many I overtook in a standard deemed appropriate in NZ or UK law – zero.
Yesterdays little mining town, where the colour seemed to disappear from the air, and everything was just a dirty dark-grey or black… was nearly the entirety of today’s ride. There were little “dust-devils” of soot flying around in the road. During some rain, I glanced down at the wind-visor, the water dripping down it was far from transparent. After the rain, the stuff left on my helmet visor – yuck. Other riders got into the shower in their full waterproof kits – and apparently the runoff was something to behold.
