[Meanie]

Very quick rundown given the time. Got a Tiger, very beautiful, some of the crew have checked her out. Huge thanks to Meanie and Monie Had to go home via Gorge, Ballance, Track. Can't wait to get run in completed. Four bolts per side, five minutes, panniers off. Almost figured out dash displays. Certain to get the hang of the pannier opening mechanism one day. Shagged around in shed admiring and tinkering. Now very late, big day today

Nice bike mate, and you definitly suit it

Hopefully it isn't real estate talk for crappy offer,amazing how the agents come in and say yes we will sell it in a few weeks,then after a FEW weeks they say maybe the price needs moving etc,funny how when you ask what price they say xxx,you agree yep that's about spot on give or take a few thou,then after the novelty runs thin they say maybe we should go this $$$.We are ok as we can still drop 28thou and still make money,but as I said to the agent give me any offers and I will judge them.Funny how the "serious offers" seem to vanish then.

[Bren]

just saw the offer....it was 25K off the mark, and would mean negative equity...so counter offered with what we would settle for...5k under what its listed at...its still listed way under GV!...and am not gonna counter again...he can take it or fuck off!

[Bren]

Fingers crossed mate, be good to see ya up here !

YEAH MATE i wanna be with my wife again...i dont like livin like a bachelor..and dont like the fact that the only pussy in my bed at the mo is of the feline kind!


oh ...ya better be careful with yer avatar...dont wanna poke yer eye out!

[ynot slow]

They don't understand that yes you want to move but no you're not going to give the house away,have to wonder who is paying the comission vendor or buyer lol,with stupid offers.

Took Mrs C out for a much needed pootle. It was mint too. Had to go up to wangavegas with Meanie so had a fairly steady run up through Halcombe hill then out through Marton, turakina and on to Wangas. Heaps and heaps of bikes out today and just as many police. Saw an ambulance in high speed mode out the back of turakina and then a massive accident involving a couple of cars just off the bridge in wangas.
Had coffee and chips and decided to head out towards vinegar hill home.
Vinegar hill is mint! Had a great time on it.
Then heading down Chelthaham striaghts I made sure Meanie was in front of me because every time I have had him following me I get pulled over.
Cruising along at 120 and meanie pulls over in front of me. I wonder whats up so pull up to find a cop behind us with his lights flashing. They should create some kind of mirror system on the bike so you can see whats coming up behind you. Discussion on how fast we were going and Meanie near rolling round in the drain laughing and he let us both off and we were on our way. Meanie took off and Mrs C and I made in 10 feet before running out of fuel. Must remember to switch the reserve switch back after refueling.
Again it gave Meanie a good laugh and called Monie to the rescue. Actually I am not sure if she was called for the rescue or just called so more could get in on the laughing.

All in all, it was an eventful afternoon.
