Yes, I admit it like many of the cyclists and spinners in this years Tour I have crashed. Badly. The lovely squishy heavenly camel fibre is rather devilish in the spin. Too fine, too camel coloured and, aside from the gorgeous tactile experience, too boring. It is not a spin that you should give yourself a [...]

Yes, Yes Miss Hewson & I have been noticeably absent. Miss Hewson is still settling into the world of paid employment and I, after a meeting with my PhD supervisors have made the difficult choice to not return to academia at this time.
