Tom,
In order to read the braille, one would first have to prize one’s
hands from the handlebars and, as mine were firmly clamped in sheer
terror, I would find it difficult to read braille while my eyes are
shut, teeth clenched, knees squeezing the crossbar and prayers being
offered to any online gods who happen to be listening! But for the
rest of yu seasoned travellers, I suppose it would be a breeze!
Seriously, Tom, I really enjoyed that little jaunt. Thank you so
much, and the same to all those in the tandem club, for asking me and
being so kind.
As for the sensative parts: The god of war rode out one day on his
snow white filly. I’m Thor, he cried, and the horse replied “you
forgot your thaddle thilly!”
Sandy.
