    Instead of riding a Norton you could ride your neighbours missus though, just club her round the head n drag her off. Simple times!

    Apparently we all begin life as female then us males slowly develop the good bits - you might be just running late in that department - patience is a virtue.

    Why do people make a dopey sounding chuckle when you tell them you have a Saab for sale.
    It's a completely retarded response that I find irritating.
    It's not like $1200 is a lot of money for a tidy car with abs & airbags, wof & 6 months reg.

    ...I think a 1200 dollar Saab would be fucking fantastic, I also have a penchant for Zundapps and other obscure shit...I often wonder why...not that Saabs are obscure, far from it...I met an affable Swede once...not of the human genus from Southland, either...
