The latter got a big thumbs up when I discovered it had put its tube <i>up in the air</i>! It also looked very good in the Blues Brothers. Not too late for Detroit to follow suit.<br /><br />O'Docker - When are you coming over? Let me know if you're around for a blogger meet up. <br /><br />You might also like to check out the Boris bikes: there are hire stations all across London so you can get around on two wheels if you'd rather.<br /><br />JPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475536270807856327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18283526.post-17323494746037965172013-02-28T03:48:00.051+00:002013-02-28T03:48:00.051+00:00Spot on, JP.

I didn't go into many of the reasons I like to walk, but having time to think an idea through with no distractions is certainly one of them.<br /><br />You are lucky to live in one of the world's most 'walkable' cities. We're planning a few days in London, soon, staying in a small Belgravia hotel, and at first assumed we'd be tubing everywhere. But checking Google maps, we've discovered that most everything we'd like to see should be an easy - and pleasant - walk.<br><br>O Dockerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08674140306304705852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18283526.post-6170434252176042722013-02-28T03:25:54.854+00:002013-02-28T03:25:54.854+00:00I find that walking a mile south, a mile east and ...I find that walking a mile south, a mile east and a mile north is wonderful for stimulating new ideas for blog posts, especially if I end up where I started.

I think the Big 3 auto companies squashed any chance for real mass transit in the Detroit area a long time ago, and it is too late for it now. I'd love the chance to walk (or a short drive) to then take a bus/train into an office in a busy downtown. it's harder to brainstorm for blogging opportunities when stuck in traffic on the expressway.my2fishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457239434851029876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18283526.post-30486952626633336592013-02-27T21:20:10.276+00:002013-02-27T21:20:10.276+00:00Agreed!

Sometimes it comes from a song, a podcast, or an audio book played on the stereo during the commute. Other times the monotony of the drive drags it out of my brain.SailFarLiveFreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12874321318453218893noreply@blogger.com
