Ummm...as I feared, I can't get away.
I've got work coming out of my ears and, despite starting at 6am every day this week I'm not getting any further ahead.
I'll probably be in here all weekend.
Sorry guys, I was looking forward to catching up too.
Hope you have a good one all.

Hey good luck with the weekend guys and ride safe huh! We'll be thinking of you as we lug furniture and boxes around.

If anyone passing thru runs into strife and needs a garage, phone, coffee etc in Christchurch drop us a txt at 027 230 6548. We'll be in and out with different things from now until Sunday arvo but the garage (and it's tools), jug, phone or whatever else is available to use. We live in the north east corner of the city.

Scummie & CB saw XKnuts heading through Rakia, snotty bugger didn't even notice them.

With a bit of luck I'll have at least two flash bikes in me gargre - the Harleys of CB and Scummie!!!! can't get much better than that eh?

Left poor Scummie to go shopping with the two women while I swan around drinking Stienies - hope the cheapskate bugger buys me some more, that'll teach the bugger to stay at my place, heh, heh, heh!.

EDIT: hey who posted this under my profile... scummie, Im looking at you

Shit wish I'd known. I'd invited myself over with some of the wifes malt. I'm sitting at home playing with myself with nothing to do.

Ride safe all.
