Today I went on a bike ride from my parents' place to Derwent Reservoir, Co. Durham (round trip: 49 miles, including a considerable excursion in z (subtext: I'm knackered)).
On the way back, because I was low on energy I turned down an opportunity to see the sites of the galaxy by not turning aside to investigate a signpost reading "Stargate".
Afterwards, I discovered, however, from Google Maps that the Stargate would not have taken me to Alpha Centauri, but to Cushy Cow Lane. Looks like I had a narrow escape, from the cushy cow...
