The weather was not the best at 9.15 at Rimutex so abandoned the ride.

Meanwhile returned to Lower Hutt and did the official transfer of registration, Golf November Two Five Zero has a new owner.

Heads Up and Enjoy

Good choice I'd say BB#1 if the weather is anything like here in Welly. Its like winter hit much like last Friday when we were in Masterton. Lissa I'm presuming you stayed home for coffee too.

Yea woke up this morning and it was raining :( Have the fire going, there was no way I was riding the GN today.

Good on ya stay safe and warm. I went over with Mrs merv to One Red Dog for lunch and made sure I had hot food and dessert to feel good. This back at work isn't as much fun as being in the 'rapa with you guys.

Not helped today by getting the news that one of our work team members was found dead on his bed this morning by his flatmate - guy in his mid to late 40's. Not sure of true cause yet but he wasn't in a healthy condition.

Haven't done much work here today then.

[Lissa]

Sorry to hear that Merv... seems very young to pass away.

Dammit!!!!, i didnt see this eariler.
Anyone keen for a ride 2moro or tonight possibly?

[elle-f]

merv - i am sorry. thats not good news for anybody to hear.

Lissa and elle33f thanks for the comments about work mate - still no confirmation what happened but basically he wouldn't stay off the booze and he was diabetic to boot and was driving himself to an early grave no matter how hard we helped him with formal counselling etc. It was always going to be a case of not "if" but "when" but it screwed our day all the same including the :Police: coming to talk to us.
