After 2 years of living life on the bread-line I am starting life in the workforce as a productive member of society again !! :spudflip: I have managed to get back all the taxes I paid when I was self-employed :woohoo: and now I'm re-inventing myself as a Golf Course Manager ... very different to being a chef running your own restaurants !!

So now maybe I will be afford to do more rides :clap: and the beast is undergoing the finishing touches getting her tune-up and the last of the broken/loose bits will be all sorted. I have got myself some decent riding gear but might have to get some boots yet as the workboots I have been wearing are a bit on the hot & heavy side given as summer is almost upon us !! :Punk:

Bloody brilliant mate!

BTW you were always a productive member of society - your kids prove that - in many ways! :devil2:

That's absolutely fantastic. Just woke up, but you've made my day!

Cheers for that guys !! (sorry Sue .. didn't mean you were a guy ... )

The only thing wrong with it at the moment is that I have to work Tuesdays to Saturdays ... so I lose a weekend day with the kids ... but at least I'm not working on sundays ... and Mondays without the kids means lots of long rides in peace !! :ride:

Yeah mate ... there's a place on the couch if you want it ... I asked Frosty if he wanted it but I haven't heard back from him !! I'm working saturday and I have club champs on sunday morning but I'm hoping to get over after that ...

Just drop me a PM with times and stuff and I'll make sure you can get in ... we'll be watching the Footie too ... so beers will be around as well !!
