I learned that when someone bumps a thread from 5 months ago, I'll read it all.  Again.  Even found where I posted in it 5 months ago.

I learnt that when the boss clears his desk at 4 o'clock and says "that's it guys, I'll see you in 2 weeks time" and walks towards the exit, you DON'T stand up shake your fists at the ceiling and mouth 'yesssssss' until you're sure he's well out of the building. ::) ::)

Having 5 days off work is not quite as good as having 6 days off work! :(
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

When you want to ride most and figure you have all the issues fixed, SOMETHING will come up to prevent you from having fun. :(
