Sorry for the sudden silenceā¦..
Retro Chick has once again outgrown its little home on a shared server, and after much soul searching (and attempts at penny pinching) I have had no choice but to move it to a bigger, fancier (and more expensive!) home.
Iāve been sorting it out and moving files since Tuesday afternoon, the name server whatsits are now pointed at the new home, but it can take 48 hours to switch over, so youāre probably seeing this on the old server still, or maybe youāre not. I didnāt want to risk producing any of my normal scintillating pearls of wisdom, only to have them disappear to the interwebular ether, never to be seen again, so till next week, this is your lot!
I also have a cold and so far January sucks. So if I could get a massive āAw Diddumsā Iām sure it will make me feel MUCH better.
The only other bit of news I have is that I appear to have been nominated for a āstyle bloggerā award by Company magazine! Thereās a special vintage category, and Iām in the āoverall winnerā category at the end. I know no more about it Iām afraid as I only found out via a tweet last night, but Iām not one to sniff at an awards nomination, whatever it is!
The voting is a little odd as there appear to be several duplicates in my category and in the overall winner category Iām the only one that for some reason warrants an http://www. in front of the blog name. You also HAVE to vote in every category, whether youāve heard of any of the blogs or not. If you do fancy popping over and voting for me then you can do so here and it if you put your email address in you also get the chance to win Ā£250 of New Look vouchers!
That's nnnesose to believe that bike trips are distributed evenly across the populace. If you look at it per-capita, using a normal curve to approximate population/income level, you can see that that 50% of trips made poorest and richest is greater than the middle two groups. In otherwords, the richest (smug) and the poorest (no choice) individuals make, by far, the most bike trips.
