    What is worse than being caught speeding?

    Well interesting day this day has been.

    Worked a 13 hour day.Bugger.

    Met up with my wife at knock off time and went a did some shopping.

    While shopping I was trying to get her to agree to let me buy a 2 pc leather suit. She was almost nearly coming round I think.

    I had my bike and she had the car.

    We pulled out of the shop up to a giveway sign and as she pulled away I zinged past her striaght into a cop.

    77k/hr $230

    My wife was about 10m behind me.

    SUCK

    I am not allowed the leathers now.

    Oh yeah, to make things worse I got pinged for a bald rear which I was planning on replacing all this week but just haven't got around to it yet.

    That is another $150.

    The cop was good though. Let me off for my Restricted licience so could have been another $400 so that was good.

    sucks to be me right now/

    The worst thing is you aint never ever going to get that money back, no matter what!
    Took me years to work that out. Cops have got nothing else to do but wait for us to f**k up.

    What's this "not allowed" to buy the leathers crap????
    Is it going to cause a large imposition on the family finances or is it just a hold over you??

    That sucks, but you should rangi it and use the old rear tyre to make your leathers

    we have my money, her money and our money. Several toys this past few weeks has taken up my money, no way am I getting her money and our money is the only funds that has enough to pay for leathers. And fair is fair, it has always been that we both have to agree to spend our money. Have to play by the rules. Don't ever get into a shopping war with a woman - you'll lose every time.

    The tire is a must. It was always going to be done anyway. It is just a really hectic week this week. (tried explaining this to the cop but she wouldn'y have it) but when working 12-15 hour days I really haven't had time to replace the tire. I am surposed to be at work now but I just woke up so it looks like a late start for me today.

    With the wifey in a prime spectators position it is not the time to do the blasting thing. At least if I had a car I would be able to sleep in it for a few days.
