Havn't talked to him yet, I might just go along for the ride and then bugger off when we get to wellsford and get that lazy bugger John to show me how to get to his place.

I outta have you up for false advertising!
I turn up about 9.50, nothing.
Bloke at the garage said you guys went about 20 mins earlier!
So chase I did, (slowly mind), and got to Wellsford about 11ish.
Nothing.
Had some lunch, talked to some trike bikers, 11.45 turned, and like Nigel Nomates wobbled home. Heart broken.

Nevermind, hope to catch ya next time.

Big sorry to Placidfemme, but you shouldn't advertise where morons might read your posts, then plan the day around them.

MMMMMM.... I can remember one incident when one of our Ulysses members rode from Auckland to Taupo for our Remembrance Service, but it was the weekend b4 the actual event

and then there was a guy this week who turned up to a funeral for one of the members a day early and realised he was attending the wrong funeral

Sorry it can happen. We put it down to Old Timers Disease
