Nice stir!

no stir at all....im a big country fan....

I met a guy on the red eye
He spotted my guitar
and said what do you do?
I said, I sing for a living,
Country music mixed with
a little rock and a little blues
He said I'm sorry
but I've never been crazy
'bout that twang and trains and hillbilly thing
What ever made you want to sing stuff like that?
I just looked at him and laughed and said

cause it's songs about me
and who I am
songs about loving and living
and good hearted women and family and God
yeah they're all just
songs about me
songs about me

So I offered him tickets
I said you'll see what I mean
if you show up tonight
he said I doubt you'll change my opinion
I'll be kind of busy, but hey man, I'll try

Then later on when we finished our songs
about scars and cars and broken hearts
I saw him, he was standing there
right next to the stage
and he shouted
man you were right
it was like you sang those

songs about me
and who I am
songs about loving and living
and good hearted women and family and God
yeah they're all just
songs about me
songs about me

So I'll just keep on singing
'til I hear the whole world singing those

songs about me
and who I am
songs about loving and living
and good hearted women and family and God
yeah they're all just
songs about me
songs about me

`Songs about me, Trace Adkins

Oh my God I can see this getting ugly.
I have not yet found an alcohol strong enough to make me listen to country.
What to bring, what to bring...it's got to be something that will shut down my senses in as short a time as possible....

Never realy planned going to this but having said that did not rule out the possibility. But had hoped to ride up on the day but both are out of the question. Re-kitting out the laundry and need to be here on the Sat for that. I will try and get an early start and ride up on the Sunday morn for the ride back. Most places you have to be out by ten so I'm picking that is about the time you will be leaving. I'll probably arrive about nine. Is there anyone else who is not going to this and wants to come up on the Sunday? PM me for a time and meeting place. Looking forward to seeing ya all.

Looking forward to this ride
decided to make sure my ride would make it a good run
So Thinking of the old girls age etc,
I drained her belly and gourged her with Good ole fleet deisel oil.
Fired her up and wow, allthe cold rattles have gone!
So she will live another ride ! COOL!
As Maintenance is something that should be done more often than I realistically do
The next thing was to remove and clean the air filter
Yeah Right!!!!
Lovely crome air box, tarnished with dust and spiders webs
BUT NO FRIGGIN FILTER!!!
Where the fudge am I going to get one of those befoe friday!
Oh well I just hope I dont have to ride down any dusty shingle roads
or I will be the last in the pack , plus an allowance for the dust to settle.
So.
New battery,
New brake pads on the front grabbers,
New WOF and Rego,
New tummy full of oil,
Looks like I've now got no excuse for not riding her.

( But Ive never had a licence officer!!)

So see all you southern riders Sat morning on the lay by at Greta Valley
Will be togged up and ready from say 9am?
Sound good to you guys heading my way?
Let me know am ETA at Greta if thats too early or late

Oh it will not be a slab I will be carrying, too bulky
Just a rather large bottle of something and some mixers,
have to make room for the tent and sleeping bag ,
Beer make me fart to much.
Dont want to create more Gass that what will be expelled Sat night as it is
