Going to find out who I am and what?

Set me a spelling test perhaps?

I've done well over 500 in a week at Metro. Computer was in kilometres though.

I am now retired with a pension on Speedfast Island.

My guess for C Basie's identity is: Vic.

Well, I only worked at 5d Shepherd Street and Whitebear (tho I think I only got in the front door once - so let's call it Back Hill) and I must know you, but I have no idea who you are...

Publicity photos will not be available

Count Banjo it is then.

Just remembered it can't be Vic after he martyred himself by riding into Canary Wharf at 17.5mph and exploding harmlessly.

Any time you want, jus gimme de docket;
Any place you want, you know I will rock it.
Me have sixteen gun inna me pocket -
Dats why me leave me bike and me dont have to lock it.
Bad man nah laugh, bad man nah smile;
When bad man a work, it's ragamuffin style.
Me ride from Glasgow down to Carlisle;
From Mon to Fri me cover two thousand mile.

Miss Basie is my new hero

Your missing one very important column in that table: "total £$"

And impressive speed on the underpass, if you hit 35 mph you set off the speed warning lights (apparantly)

>Bill 8.5km/20min each way, 17km/40min in total. For the sake of accuracy, on Friday and Monday the computer kept on slipping out of the bracket and many a mile went unrecorded. Tuesday and Wednesday are accurate.

Notice none of the days were particularly busy - what is a `proper' mileage then, on a day when you don't stop? Or do we really care...

>JP seriously now, one would not post one's earnings here would one...one would either be embarrassed and feel silly for working so hard for so little - or get torn apart by one's workmates who are fighting for a slice of the same pie ;) no, there was no warning lights in the underpass.
