  Yes, indeed. Howard should be congratulated for producing a series of photos which could almost be a manual promoting the peaceful coexistence of the cyclist and the pedestrian. The photos show kids frolicking, shoppers with their shopping in side carriers, a bloke on his way home from work with his stuff in a bag on his back, another bloke out for a jolly on an empty seafront, etc.
  
  This is the way it should be. More people on bikes and less people in cars. Cyclists have to take their lives in their hands out in the road, particularly in Dover with all the trucks and cars passing through, mainly foreign. In my view, they should be actively encouraged to use the pavements and pedestrians advised that they are no longer entitled to monopoly rights.
  
  The daft cycle lanes should be dispensed with and cyclists given free rein to use road and pavement at will, and encouraged to use both responsibly and with consideration for the motorists and pedestrians sharing their space.
  
  For starters, I suggest that the pedestrian precinct be renamed the pedalestrian precinct.
