    Yeah, I heard of a guy in Palmerston recently who had his arm and leg blown/burnt off because of 11kv lines. I guess he wasn't wearing his Hi-Viz vest.

    Of course I left out the really mundane bits - and the identifiable personal bits.

    But then it would be like a KB rally eh?

    To answer that would require the identifiable personal bits, which he left out

    My best riding buddy in Sydney in 1978 was Al 'fatal' Lynch. Rock jawed, reformed westie. Quite a ladies man was Al. He had a custom Z900B and I had an XS1100 and we used to go out on the south side - race our bikes and chase babes 7 nights a week - for a few heady summers late in the decade.
    The rules were different back then and it was an Austin Powers style shag fest. We had a different babe on the back most weeks. And some stunners too.

    By day Fatal was a ground engineer at qantas mascot. He was the one who waved the landing beacon things and communicated with the pilots via the hard wired head set.

    Just as he reached up to say 'all clear' to a 727 and unplug - lightning struck the plane.

    Fried his nervous system - it was 5 years till he could muster the strength to pull in the clutch on a bike.

    He's still talks slow - brain's fine - just the signals get lost in the burnout. Don't think he rode again. Married a Cypriot girl and got family.

    Onya Fatal. We were huge.

    Who says it doesn't strike twice?
    Speed doesn't kill people.
    Stupidity kills people.

    The way I read this, these two things went together...that must have been some tour!

    Like others have said re: your job - good on you!

    (PS - I moved papers around and drank coffee. Oooh, I printed some things as well...)
    Me and my imaginary friend have been goin' round the bend for some time now....
