Oliver Schick:

I was thinking that the only way of getting to grips with the problem
might be a regulatory response, to ban such mopeds altogether, which
will never happen, but I can't see right now what other strategies
might work.

Surely this whole thread is focussed on the wrong premise: that increased legislation stops crime?

I'd like to suggest that perhaps, if there was some kind of hope for these kids - that one day they might have jobs, homes, a decent salary, some life security - then they might not want to take the huge risks that are involved in (moped-facilitated) crime.

Of course, I may just be living in a fantasy world, but from what I see increased inequalities between those who have the opportunities (most of the people posting on this forum, I'd imagine - but, particularly, the ruling classes within our society) and those who don't (viz, the ones who participate in "criminal" behaviours) are the real reasons behind increased violence in society. And, until we start talking about and acknowledging such inequalities, things are unlikely to get much better....

Anyway, just my 2 cents.

#journey while at work tonight

@moocher thanks! Something to look forward to read at xmas time..

@ everyone else... if someone wants it after, I'm happy to post on... let me know your deets

Shouldn't that be in this weeks LFGSS weekly photography challenge (journey)?

Hi @moocher, I'd love to read that book - just started running recently (I'll write something about that in a few weeks, probably in a new thread), someone at work recommended it to me. Only potential prob is I'm living in Paris (we're all still Europeans - at present!) but if that's a pain I'll be back at xmas to visit the fam in London.

Cheers, d0cA

PS I'm on for 5 miles today, slowly building...

Great number plate.

Hey Scott, amazing news, so happy for you and hope it all works out!

Best wishes, d0cA

Hold your horses, I think quite a few people wait until the weekend ;-)

Hi, nice pics. Where did you take the second one (reminds me of Paris), and what lens for the third?

By the way, the first post used to keep track of the 'winners' each week... but doesn't seem to have been updated for a while. Great shame, as it's good to be able to look back.

Anyway, cheers to all, I'm really enjoying this thread - and just starting a photo course so do plan to contribute at some point in the near future.

Collection's usually from @Velocio at beers somewhere....

Anyway, just placed my order :-) Ummed and aahhhed for ages over the size: there's not really much difference between medium and large, is there? Eventually went for the latter as my hope of being a medium may not be realised.

Anyway, looking forward to it. Gonna represent in Paris when I do!

good friend had a langster stolen in kentish town this week - was repainted scarlet red at armourtex in hackney a few years back, so pretty obvious if anyone sees it....

other than that, i'm gonna send him a copy of the image coppiThat posted above - great!

Can't see it listed on the shop (yet?!) so have put my name down here. Or am I missing something?
