    $25000 for the price of post.

    Ive an old Yosh box (ecu tuner) that against all good advice has been sent round the world a couple of times and even done the rounds of NZ more than once,a few off here have played around with it from time to time,its always found its way home therefore justifying my faith in human nature,been hard at times to sort out post payment so have sent the thing away courtesy of me most times and about a month sent it to a bloke up North and it arrived home the other day and was left on the workbench in the garage still postal wrapped.John (Oldrider) called in this evening and after he left i went out to check something on one of the bikes in the shed we had been discussing,i remembered the package on the bench and bought it in to unwrap and check it was all good,there was a few scratchies with a note of thanks,set about scratching said things to revealstill cant believe it $25000....wtfabsolutly stunned,there not my thing and ive never bought one in my life,the thing cost a $1..go figure.Will pass some of it back to the bloke methinks,would feel a right bastard if i didnt,cant believe my luck.Wahoo eh.

    Mate to be honest i feel like a right bastard though a happy one,i feel sorry for the bugger that bought the scratchie tickets After almost a year of reduced hours at work (things are picking up) its very welcome though.May well go 1/2vers with the fella as i know hes not well off himself.Honestly cant believe my luck.May well at last get the wee Honda racebike up and running.

    Most excellent! Well paid forward that man! So now your faith in human nature has been recognised and its great to hear a good story like that, what with all the doom and gloom lately!

    Freakin' sweet. There is justice after all. Buy him a beer and keep the rest dude, you've earned it.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
