£5,875 worth of damage to the bike... excess = £2,000. People borrowing loan bikes beware - the terms and conditions can be very different from demo/test-ride bikes! Evil or Very Mad

Aahhh...the sweet sights and sounds of summer approaching...chavs on benches drinking stella... all their brats out to play late, setting fire to things...blokes in cut off Adidas tracky bottoms and no top, while their missus is 22 stone and wearing hotpants...

I love living in Walton Rolling Eyes

I chased up an order from Amazon to note it had apparently been delivered yesterday at 10.00. It was not, or so I thought......

I called Amazon to discover that their delivery people HDNL had apparently put the books into one of my rubbish bins outside the house. No card put through the door to tell me this though.

Apart from the fact that the bins are full of rubbish and water, so the books would probably be ruined anyway; one material problem HDNL did not consider is that bins do get emptied. In my house? on a Wednesday! Twisted Evil

I guess these people are deliverymen due to the fact they have one brain cell between them and other emplyment is beyond them. FFS.

To be fair, Amazon handled it well on the phone and have sorted it.

Angry young men, I use the term loosley. More boys really who think they know it and done it all. Sorting one out this morning pissed me off as I could have fucked up my future on the Knowledge.........

DJS / Slow - Crossing from inside to outside lane on the bit of the A3 near the turn-off for the Hog's Back. Car in the outside lane broke, so he gently broke too. Unfortunately, the front wheel was light on the ground (that bit of the road is a rising crest) so slipped on the white line and had no chance to recover. Lucky the concrete wall was there really, or he'd have shot straight into oncoming traffic.

Found a design flaw in my new Shark helmet... (CRASH helmet before anyone starts... Laughing

)

Decided to be naughty and wind it up a bit on the 25 on the way back from Ryka's today, and apart from the wind noise (I can deal with that) there's just one thing i' m not happy with....
At anything over about 105 (Ummm.. Errr.. I mean 70mph officer...), hunkered down, ass in the back of the seat and looking through the screen.. The wind resistance pressing against my head was forcing the unnecesarily sharp edge of the helmet into my forhead, which began to feel like the top of my head was being sliced off by a shovel...

Time for a blue peter fix.. now where did i put that roll of selotape and slice of packing foam......
