Yes, I am now freezing my rotunda off after coming over from sunny Brisbane yesterday. :yes: :yes:
I had amazing good luck, the Emirates flight was delayed an hour so they didn't charge me for excess baggage, and the NZ leg to NP reduced my excess baggage fee by $50, so in the end I only paid $75 instead of $225 to fly my 'puter with me. Hooray! (the ticket for me only cost $220 fer jeepers sakes!!)
The bike will be in my driveway tomorrow, and I'll take it down to get vinned etc on Thursday. Anyone know of a friendly dealer who would lend me a D plate for the day? Otherwise I'll have to borrow someone to help me tie it down on Pa's trailer. Either way, shouldn't be a problem.
Many thanks to Eyetie (Ray) who has helped me with the move and made things an absolute breeze. It's made a huge difference to have inside help on this as it seemed so daunting.
KB is a wonderful place and the help we give each other is just amazing, even if you haven't met the person. :sunny:
I'm looking forward to giving back the sort of help I've had from quite a few people on here, none of whom have met me yet - but all of them had no hesitation in putting their hands up or simply making overtures of friendship, something which means a lot to me as I've just left a marriage and a ton of friends behind in Brisbane. Plenty of you will know how I'm feeling right now - fragile is the word, I think!
Anyway, looking forward to catching up with the NP crowd soon and will be making expeditions further afield so I'll be calling in on other KBers around the place too. Gotta get ride fit before the CK!
Once again, thanks so much to all I've been communicating with lately and hope to meet you all soon.
