Title: daughter questions the safety of my night rides
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on April 02, 2025, 02:59:13 PM
....and not for the first time.


She happened to look over my shoulder at this photo, pointed and said, "Dad!, I can see SlenderMan standing right down there waiting for you!"

and, "in there is where you'll get murdered!" she said.

Once I did have a bit of a moment when - behind me, from out of the dark - came a large potato shaped man in a wife-beater with a hammer in his hand (maybe it was the morning paper?) He was flanked by two pit-bulls.
In his best Deliverance voice, he whispered, "watcha doo'n?"

I'm thinking if I answer that truthfully he's going to go, "take him boys!"

I braced for their attack and said, "I'm taking pictures of the moon."

He grunted and didn't kill me after all with the morning paper.
I don't stop along his farm these days.

First response that springs to mind is "and how many murderers get up as early in the morning as Stig?"!

You'd be at more risk riding around a large UK city mid-afternoon these days TBF
