    Hiya mate. Look forward to the yellow blob making its appearance once again
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    spent like 2 months looking for a proper job.... then another month looking for any job (even BK didn't call me back..... an engineering degree and I#m not qualified enough for BK hahahahahaha) and so worked as a door to door salesman for a month or so before christmas.

    I remember the last recession in the early nineties. There was a joke in Glasgow:
    Q: What does a phd graduate in Glasgow say?
    A: "Do you want fries with your order sir?"

    Seems nothing is new under the sun eh?

    Got a CHEAP CBR400rr you are welcome to look at. Fairings are average, few scrapes here and there, needs new chain and sprockets...but still goes fine...it belongs to my bro, i am selling on behalf. Oh, he also lost his one and only key so I am gonna try get another one cut form the ignition barrel, or replace the ignition all together.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    Did you have a bike in EU Jono? What did you have if so? Prices good in IE?

    Sad to hear about your job, have a safe trip back.
