A roadkill 2015 motoring atlas of Great Britain. Presumably it arrived via a Terminator-style time displacement apparatus, and was promptly run over by a van. Unless the large circular pothole was purely coincidental.

Foster Grant was Cary Grant's short sighted brother.

Nice, but I can't help thinking, there's some little chap out there, crying his eyes out at the loss of his much-loved skateboard.

Not where i found it, unless he was very very lost.

A scattering of several dozen penny washers, embedded in the chutney at the side of the road. I didn't stop to collect them.

Similarly, a used condom. I rode on.
