    And Ozzy boses..can be a pain in the arse....
    Lots of bikes on the road though.....
    So good riding to be had....

    BTW...has anyone had anything to do with the Aprilia. 650.. pegas.strada..
    they seem to come with a bit of good gear.

    And that is the honest truth your honour..

    Yeah.. gotta watch it a bit..... the redback is a bit shy..i think..
    will only bite cha if you stand on it.. or its in your sock. or something.
    dont think they will kill a person.. but make ya a bit crook...
    got a few huntsman galloping about the place... they also get out your way.
    but they look horrible. big ugly barsturds..the bigest we had in here was nearly 200 mm across.. they will bite.. but not deadly...
    where iam living.. is on a 2 acre block.. full of trees and critters..
    had a few snakes about the place.......normallly they get of your way.
    one of the worst things here .. is a tick...
    i have had 2 on me.....not very big things.. but they stick like a leach.
    dont like meths being poured on them.
    cant pull them off.. they leave there tail under your skin.
    one variety is called a paraliset tick... dark blue. bad arse things they are.... no to sure how they affect a bloke... will google it and find out.
    but by the name they dont sound too good.
    where would we be without a little adv.. in our lives..
    And that is the honest truth your honour..
