I suppose you have to first learn to RAPPEL to get one down for riding!

Seems to be the visual embodiment of Joni Mitchell's song Big Yellow Taxi, where they "put up a parking lot"?

You need to remember to tie your clogs on to the handle bars when you leave it, so that it stands out from the crowd when you get back.

That's not really a distinguishing factor here - we all wear clogs, grow tulips and live in a windmill, you know.

of course, how silly of me to forget.

Photoshop experts, doesn't this seem almost like a DEMAND to create a photo of a man, with six fingers on each hand, wearing clogs, and riding a bicycle on a windmill?

You rappel, we abseil! (Not me, personally, of course!)

Hence the saying, "Abseil makes the heart grow fondue..."

"Me, I'm just a lawnmower - you can tell me by the way I walk."

Just wondering, ever considered trying to improve your gait by wearing clogs?

Just wondering, but shouldn't it be "You can tell by the way I walk"? Not you can tell me ...

Not according to I Know What I Like Lyrics - Genesis

... we all wear clogs .......

At the end of a long day, I bet the Professional Strength Gel Clog Remover goes down a storm in The Netherlands

[HansV]

Hmmm, I've never tried wearing gel clogs. But if they're so hard to take off I'm not sure I will...

we all... live in a windmill, you know.

I've known that since 1965

Are you sure you ALL live in windmills?

[HansV]

You don't really believe he lives in there, do you? It's just the clog boat he uses to go to work.

Leif is correct, according to the booklet in "Selling England By the Pound" (one in my boxed set of 6 CDs); your suggestion would be valid but for the fact that the Peter Gabriel's delivery needs a word to fit.

I would read the lyric as, "You can tell [it is] me by the way I walk."
