Ban grey cars !

[teddytunstall]

I was just out shopping and when I crossed the road, I didn't see a car until it was almost on me. The reason I didn't see it was because it was grey, and it also happened to me not long ago.

Grey blends in with the tarmac and makes cars harder to see.

Ban grey cars. There are plenty of other colours, so why have a grey car? Get a nice bright yellow one.

Ooo, controversial! I wonder what response this will get.

While I've got your attention, just to let everyone know that this is the last chance to get "The Perdix Project" for £1.99p.

The special offer ends this weekend, and next week it goes back to £4.99p.

"The Perdix Project" by Teddy Tunstall - a techno-thriller \ mystery thriller that has intriguing clues that are unlike the clues any other crime novel. The mystery is deep, the clues are cryptic and taxing, but not impossible to crack. As you follow the intricate thought processes of the detective duo, you will get enough pointers to give you a realistic chance of working it out before the end.

To anyone who does work it out before all is explained – well done, and for all others – I'm sure you will find the explanation very satisfactory. No wishy-washy, vague explanations. It is all plausible, believable and grounded.

For less than the price of a pint, you can enjoy a few hours engrossed in an intriguing mystery with mind-expanding, sci-fi thought experiments, good, solid detective work and an James Bond-style action packed ending.

It took three years to write and that was because I spent many long hours researching quantum physics, astrophysics, dark matter, dark energy, and other branches of science. I watched lectures by some of the world's leading physicists - Professor Leonard Susskind of Stanford University, Professor Fay Dowker of Imperial College, Sean Carroll of CalTech and many others, so most of the science in The Perdix Project is real. There is very little fictional science - just enough to make the plot work.

Best wishes, Teddy.

I once had a very close call when I pulled out in front of a matt black audi tt. It was coming from a tree covered area into the bright sunshine where I was and I failed completely to see it. I think day time running lights have solved this problem for most new cars now.

I always have two sets of lights on my bike these days as I've had a few close calls where I've not been seen by cars pulling out of junctions. For £30 and being a bit less cool than the proper velominati, it's definitely worth it.
