I never did develop a liking for corndogs, or chilli dogs, when I lived in the US. I really would love a really good street hotdog with everyone on it,though. Can't get a real hotdog in the UK. Confused

Cycling in South Africa - not a sport for the fainthearted. If you're not mugged for your bike or get mowed down by a taxi, this happens...

They showed this on the news the other night and I immediately thought about you! Apparently, neither man nor beast was injured. Cool
