Bicycles

This is a complicated picture, not entirely sure that I like it, but cities are complicated places to live, a fact which is difficult to portray pictorially without being messy.

I've done it, well you can see for yourself. Pictures with bicycles in them, well done for getting two in one, one in motion for extra points. Glad you posted your picture but it could have been a more flattering one i think.

Thank you Ema, and congratulations, you are the first person to leave a comment on my blog. Clearly all the others have been rendered speechless by the intellectual altitude hereabouts. You do of course win a prize for being the first commenter, and here it is: "m".
Yes that's right, it is the missing letter from your name, I am sure you will be very relieved to get it.

Well phew, I knew I’d lost something. I usually find these things in the last place I look but this time it was the first place, or rather I didn’t look at all. Thanks but I have got used to my name with one "m". I will use the awarded "m" for a variety of things. Extra long mmmmm's, adding "m" to words that shouldn’t have it like tomato (becomes tomatom) and maybe for times when I have to spell my name correctly, such as official government business. See now i've started I can't stop!

Excellent. You could also use it to modify certain comments that you might pass casually, thus rendering them incomprehensible, and building your mystique. For example, when informed of the shortlist for the Turner prize, instead of saying "Interesting", you could say "Minteresting".
