  1. So I get in from work and was given a list of everything that had been done while I was at work and I had to admit the house was spotless. Only one job left and that was to cut the lawn. To which I politely replied 'sorry babe there's no petrol left in the can' She only suggested siphoning some out of the bike!!! Laughing, I said ''Course I 'kin will, just like you'd give up a chocolate brownie'! Storming out to work she said something to the affect of me using the exhaust pipe from now on! Anybody else think I may be getting lucky later tonight when she gets home??
  2. Are you sure it's not the float set wrong? Could then be leaking from the overflow? If it is the drain screw I think from memory there should be some sort of sealing washer.
  3. I'm hoping foamy will change his mind at the last minute!!
  4. I'll be leaving early again this year. Hopefully get to sea ways in time to take pics!
  5. Welcome aboard! Absolutely nothing wrong with L plates I felt the same before going to Squires last year but they're really nice guys on here and made me feel welcome Good to see you get the ironing done first before heading off out lol. You're lucky you get away with just ironing to get to go out and play!! The annual meet at squires btw is 5-7th September

  7. I'll be taking the aerobics class first thing Saturday morning!!
  8. If I had an up to date passport I'd definitely be going to Romania for a holiday and doing the test while there! I taught my wife how to drive a car, but she needed 4 hours professional lessons to learn how to pass her test!! I don't know about anyone else here but I didn't really start learning how to drive until after I passed my test? My point here is, agreeing with Bipps, I could have gone out and brought, as an example, my current car - 2.2 DT with 140 horses. Not massive power, but far too much for a novice. So I do kind of understand why you have to prove you're capable of handling a large bike. That said, financially I have no plans to get a large cc bike until the kids are much older. I just want to do my test before they change the rules again! The bike test has to be done on a 600+ machine. I will check if training is mandatory - maybe the bike school would hire the bike only for the test? I think I'm right in saying that you (dt50) can ride whatever on your licence over here? God I wish I'd done this 20 years ago!
  9. Can't help there I'm afraid. Mine already came with a rear carrier
  10. Sounds good to me. McDonald's for lunch. Probably only half decent meal of the weekend!!
  11. I think it is compulsory to have tuition on a 600+ bike, but even if not I'd have to hire one!
  12. Best book another dozen campsite pitches if there's a 'completely fine butt' about!!
