    It looks like a toy one to me - why not get yourself a real bike Clio instead of a plastic fantastic:rotfl:

    lol yeah it is all placa i agree, But to behonest it's what it can do well that makes it a nice bike. nipping around country lanes - dirttracks -zipping around town etc rather than motorway driving. might be just a phaze and i'll wake up soon hehe;)

    Think Clio, think. Dirt tracks means mud, mud sticks to bike then you have to clean it and we all know you don't like cleaning your bike:rolleyes: Anyway cow pats smell terrible especially when they bake onto your exhaust pipe:rotfl:

    Its a phase you're going through just like a mid life crisis. There's more things to break too, plastic mouldings are expensive.:rolleyes:

    Well, I suppose I had better see what I can have for dinner and see if I have any marigold gloves for Saturday as I am doing a carwash for charity, Lula thinks its an excuse for me to letch at firemen:rotfl:

    If you want a nasty suck, I will lend you my new vacuum (incubus succobus).

    I'm just a grump. No good reason at all to be - I'm just bored by the monotony of life. Can't see to get enthusiastic about work at the moment and the days drag, normally I enjoy my job.
    Just need to snap myself out of it and be pleased with what I got.

    Round to a friends this evening, I think she shouting us a takeaway. Maybe I'll be happier later with a belly full of junk food!

    agreed ^ :heartpuls ;) I know it's not very feminist & I risk a good slating, however I'm not in favour of female firefighters :eek: ; should there be a fire in my house I want to be thrown over the shoulder by a rugged chunk of 6ft manliness.... not shown the way by a petite blonde with fake nails :rolleyes: *dons flak jacket & takes cover, again ....

    Horace - how do you know that clio is having a midlife crisis... he could be a mere stripling in his 20's :D having left the navy 7 years ago, by my reckoning he might only be 25 :confused:

    Re Firefighters - they no longer sling you over their shoulders, I discovered that today, something to do with bloomin' elf and safety:rolleyes: I think they have done away with their poles too:rolleyes:

    Clio - could have joined the navy late, he's a bloke and they always veer from one crisis to another especially where motorbikes and gadgets are concerned:rolleyes: Anyway, I can't see him cleaning burnt on cowpats off his bike:rotfl:

    Nah 35 i am lol.... I'd probably not get it dirty hehe. I tend to keep things gleaming like new so it maybes be good for dirt tracks - but it's another thing me going down them unless they are bone dry. ;)

    Horace can you clean my car & bike for charity lol \0/
