NO, I f*****g well can't. Pathetic bloody summer, in truth. Reminded me of summers when I was growing up. All crap temperatures and then thunder and rain just as it was getting hot and so obviously muggy. Think I went sailing 3 times in all. Cue even worse general mood as the clocks go uselessly back one hour, in 6 weeks time. I've had it. Seriously thinking about moving to the South of France, in about 5 years time, when the house is paid up. Doesn't help that Saints aren't doing well/top of the league, either. Cue bad mood for the rest of Autumn..!

But didn't he admit that he was..? EDIT: P.S. Morning, Pancake.

Riding it like he'd stolen it, perhaps..?

Not really a very good argument, is it..? The consequences of your actions could kill. I know we all change the CD, tape or radio station. But nobody said it was against the law. There have possibly been accidents caused by operating these things, but it isn't illegal to do so. It is illegal to use a mobile phone whilst driving - unless hands off, of course, and we know there have been accidents. Is it really worth it that you can't pull over to the kerbside and find out what you need to know..?

So basically, you'll just carry on illegally using your mobilephone whilst driving.

Watch the 125 and Moto2 races on iPlayer. You'll find them billed under Sport, but also Most Popular too.

Just about to start, To The Baltic With Bob, by Griff Rhys Jones, which is supposedly an epic sailing misadventure. I've read the first lines of the opening paragraph and already chuckled. It looks as though it might be a hoot.

Last season, Pardew had better options. You know what, I may make the subject of Antonio/Papa Waigo my Dalek2003/Hoddle obsession.

Had an Indian takeaway last night. Not bad at all. Very much better than I was expecting, so I'd give it 7.5/10. It was the Shapla-Tandoori in Rumbridge St, Totton. Give it a go. Not crap..!

LOL. I'd like Antonio and/or Papa Waigo to start, please. Ta.

Was going to post this earlier, but you've beaten me to it. The action was described as despicable. I can only agree. Religious differences are perverting belief into a vehicle for violence, and its time is well and truly over. In this case, nodoby is in need, nobody is starving. It's just historical grievances of being one side of the religious fence, or the other. If people can't hold a decent sense of peace in their hearts then something is clearly wrong with them.

Thought Stoner was back to his neck-wringing best. When he's really flying, Charlie Cox and Steve Parrish always say that he rides the thing like he's stolen it - which always makes me chuckle. And he does. Great to watch. Apparently, they moved his seating position 10cm forward, and the engine 5cm back. But what did they do the Nicky's bike to him so fast..? And yep, long overdue podium from Hayden too, and a nice bit of block passing on the final lap. Fantastic track at Aragon. The Moto2 race was a bit of a cracker, and the 125 one had a jump-off-the-seat final couple of laps, and Bradley got 3rd. Excellent day of racing.

Nope, can't think of anything.

'The Guide Dog' crowned CAMRA Regional Pub of the Year
St Landrew replied to Macey_J2's topic in The Lounge
Blimey, The Guide Dog must have changed hands then, since I last went in there. Mind you, that was a fair few years ago. -
Now that is funny. The cartoon, not the still pic.

I can understand that. We don't do ourselves any favours, as far as cars are concerned. But we are relatively small, relatively fast, and have relatively more vision, because we're not inside a cage. We may seem to do dangerous things occasionally, from your perspective, but more often than not, they aren't dangerous from ours. We get tea and coffee, apple cores, lit cigarette ends, etc... thrown at us, from drivers and passengers who wind down the window and don't look first [well, maybe they do..?], but on the other hand, I often find that car drivers move over, and I always give them a thumbs up or wave as I go past. Fact is, if you're on a motorcycle, and waiting at the back of a traffic queue, or not overtaking when there's plenty of time and space, you're hardly using your motorcycle to its advantage, that is getting to the destination way before the car. To be honest, Smirking, I don't expect any favours from car drivers. A minority of motorcyclists seem intent to spoil any good relations we have with car drivers. All I want drivers to do is not to injure or kill me through a lack of due care. All the bravado mobile texting and phoning counts for nought when you see a motorcyclist, cyclist or pedestrian lying badly injured or dead in the road, and you've helped to cause it. I know the feeling because I'm also an everyday car driver and back in the 1980's an old guy on a moped ran into me, flipped over the top of his handlebars and died when he hit the ground. I tell you, it's sh!t from every angle you look at it. That caused me incredible grief, even though it wasn't my fault, but because I was there. Maybe I could have done something if I'd have taken more care. I'll never know. Of course, using the mobilephone, hands-on, when driving is illegal. But so many people blatantly do it, you'd think it wasn't. I keep saying one of these days, I'm going to take the number of the car and go to the nearest police station and report them, but I never do. But if there is a plain disregard and almost boastful idea about it, I probably will start reporting these people. So, Saint Stevo. Don't let me find out your reg no. eh..?

Any chance of giving me your make, model and registration number, so that I can keep Me and my motorcycle away from You and your travelling manslaughter weapon..?
