Xierqi station on Beijing Subway’s Line 13 last Thursday morning at around 7:30.
According to Antony Tao of Beijing Cream, Xierqi is:
…a transfer station and one of the cleaner, better-looking ones in the system. It has, like other stations in Beijing’s vast underground transportation network, built-in artificial bottlenecks intended to relieve congestion in the form of gates and narrow staircases. On some occasions, however, those fail.

Unless you happen to be Alan Dukes and Mike Aynsley. In which case you can kick sand in his face.
Is this yours?
Do you lock it at Charlemont Luas?
It was Inches from being lost forever.
Until a couple of pesky kids came along…

Just helped someone stop a person seconds away from stealing a bike under Charlemont Luas Bridge [at the Grand Canal, Dublin].
Locks had been sliced through with mini angle grinder. He claimed he “lost his key” before scuttling away.
The bike is now locked at Royal Eye and Ear hospital, Adelaide Rd if the rightful owner would like to collect.
Go inside to the [hospital] porters and show that your key opens the old lock.
Kudos to Aoife who spotted it in the first place.
We’re taking back the streets.
One politely retrieved hybrid fixie at a time.

Spotted this beauty at Seapoint [Blackrock, Co Dublin] last Sunday – It’s the 2nd cloud that looks like Ireland that I’ve spotted. See The Broadsheet Book of Unspecified Things That Look Like Ireland (New island) – p155 I think.
We’re also getting a bit of witch.
