I was in Whitcoulls today ruminating at how expensive talking books are, my Mum's b'day and I needed to buy her something...ended up getting her the new Dave Dobyn CD, anywaaaaaaaaay...I touched the elbow of my jacket and felt something sticking out from the elbow guard.

"Hmmmmmm...what the hell is that? (slowly it dawned on me) Oh my god! It CAN'T be!!!" But yes it was! The mystery has been solved!

Good to hear from ya CSL.... Keys are like carb screws, once ya drop em they fall into special worm holes (usually located in the dark corners under benches etc) and only re appear once the new one you ordered arrived.

One, you're lazy. Two, what's with the dyke comment? I can't for the life of me see what role sexual orientation plays in what bike someone has. You'd make a good mate for my brother - he figured I must be a lesbian because I rode a motorcycle, had short hair and tattoos, and wore Doc Marten's. I'm pretty sure my husband would beg to differ! :hitcher:

Just being a tosser obviously.

I remember in my MX pants finding something sticking into me & it was a barbed Weta leg. Had to carefully take it out.

Anyways a couple of rides later I noticed something digging into my leg. Sort of lumpy, . . erm.

YUEERGH! - I know what that is! Somehow it had gotten inside the gortex lining but I had to cut a hole to get it out. Hadn’t obviously survived the washing treatment though.

Granted. I hope that doesn't bug you, because it would be a shame if you got all bugged about something you couldn't do anything about.


Two, what's with the dyke comment?

Joke. Humour. Sarcasm. Something like that. I was in a hurry. I notice that nobody's answered my question, though.

Plenty of dykes are a lot more feminine than that.

Could your parents just not afford Barbies when you were growing up, or something?

Well before you & Beemer really get the claws out I guess I better answer. :devil2:
1. Lost keys, couldn't find keys after looking everywhere. Paid for new keys but ignition key wrong, so had to pay for new ignition keys, found lost keys today that had been missing since late Feb.
2. Not my bike but lovely I agree, belongs to another KBer.
3. Proper girls’ bike?? Ummmm, errrrr never knew there was such a thing.
4. My sexuality is irrelevant.

WETAS = extra large cricket type bugs with spikey legs, don't fly and mainly live in dark places.

HUHU BUGS (or BEETLES) = Large (up to 3" long) flying beetles with long curvy antenae and clingy spikey legs, they fly around in the late summer months at night - and make a hell of a whack when they hit your goggles!!
And their grubs are a tasty treat - sort of look like big maggots about 4" long and live in rotten pine logs. (and other types of wood too)

Nah, not scared of 'em. They're actually almost harmless (Almost - if you get stabbed by those spines, they're very dirty and the stab puncture can easily become infected - like spider bites). I just hate them. They're repulsive, not frightening. Like goatse - not frightening, but ruddy 'orrible.

I always thought the huhu grub was the pupae of the weta. The maori ate them, they apparently taste somewhat like peanuts but I have no desire to confirm that.
