Walking past Harvey Nic's, this morning, I noticed these in the window.

I love fun art like this and whilst the saddle looks a bit harsh and I'm not a fan of fixies, I would dearly like to own one of these.

I own plenty but in my industry, no one wears ties any more.

I went home past this last night, just to see. It's nice to see bikes getting more press, but I just don't get modern art.

It think the job of anyone involved in modern art involves not giving a stuff what 99.99% of people think about your work, whilst finding the 0.01% who don't think what you do is silly and can afford to pay silly amounts for it.

I honestly think I could make something similar, the difference is I wouldn't have the brass balls to try to convince rich idiots that it is meaningful, and they need it.

(I know art is subjective, and this is only my 2p worth.)

It made me smile. That's all it needed to do for me to decide I liked it.

Maybach / S-Class?

Does anyone wear ties to work these days? They're almost a faux pa in my industry / networking group.

It could be either car. Its the layby at the front door or the Madarin Oriental.

Its not a 75, the rear arches are too flared out and it has a flatter rear end than the 75. I reckon it's a Maybach too.

My entire company (which is pretty big) seems to no longer wear ties.

Which is precisely why I do

I'm going to buy a bowler hat at the end of the month too.
