    Just an idea

    Maybe Disco Dan can put him up, at work. He'll fit right in there.

    We've had one of the hottest driest summers down here I've ever witnessed. And I used to live in Tuscany. I wish it would rain.

    Used to commute 52km in the rain on the Ducati in Auckland....no ill effects...the rumours are untrue

    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    Actually, Tim Shadbolt was a bit like Mark when he was the same age. Didn't ride a bike, but. And a lot more political. But mark somewhat reminds me of him . He turned out OK, which none of us expected. Maybe Mark will too. Mayor Mark ?
