    BTW ... since you're also in Fitby, when we going to see you on a TCSMR?
    Beanie = bean counter = accountant = End of that part of the conversation (). Not a hat thing, but just as exciting, if not less so!!

    It's back..."Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

    If you love it, let it go. If it comes back to you, you've just high-sided!

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I manage a company specialising in the digitisation of historical microfilm.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Good luck with the R6, sometimes employers see it our way. See my trip write up in Adventure thread - Work made me do it - not quite an R6 though. Happy teacher of teenagers. Cheers

    Now at age 74 I do what I feel like doing as I have pensions totaling nearly $50,000 a year.

    Started work in 1950 as an apprentice fitter and turner, became a tool and die maker, and instrument repair technician. Qualified as a marine engineer and machinist. Became an engineering teacher, then a hard crafts teacher, joined the New Zealand Army Band as a musician (marched up every NZ main street from Kaitaia to Invercargal, saw NZ at the Armys expense), gave that up and became a locksmith and engraver in Paihia, also drove taxis and buses for Fullers. I conducted history tours in the Bay of Islands, my family home for 180 years. Now retired to Hamilton to play in my well equipt engineering workshop, make music, and ride my bike.

    You win DougB. We are not worthy. Obviously a life well lived.
