Handy excuse for dodgy driving
Driving along Green Lane Rd yesterday afternoon, Cobi van der Eeze was behind an old Toyota Corolla with three occupants. "Slow to leave at the lights and erratic driving. Reason: Three deaf people signing to each other. Yes, the driver was frequently hands-free and looking at her friends whilst 'chatting'. Hands on the wheel and eyes ahead people."
Dining out on a good story
Kenn Henderson, still owner of Tony's Wellesley St restaurant after all these years, responds to the mention of the '80s restaurant voucher in Sideswipe on Tuesday. "I really enjoy the often intriguing stories associated with these vouchers from the past and confirm that the one photographed would have been from the early '80s and that the restaurant had about a 15-year involvement in those early days of triathlon. I will of course be delighted to honour the voucher - in fact, as the story is so warming, we will improve the offer and shout two main meals to give them a good night out. If anyone else has a voucher in their possession come and tell us your story, we will certainly honour it."
In receipt of suspicion
