    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Roast dinner sounds good :D
    I need to organise some food. Seems too much like hard work though.

    I can do a great roast

    HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE

    Don't worry sally, bikers are much more aware than car drivers, they don't have the cosy heating and radio to listen to, hehe. Take it from me motorbikes are not dangerous, says the girl who fell asleep on the back of one going down a motorway :rotfl:

    Done the bike thing, Sally ( was NOTa mid-life crisis!;) ) let him frighten the sh*t out of himself, that should do the trick....
    .....or go to a Sunday bike meet and laugh at all the 45 yr olds trying to get into leathers that are too tight, thinking that they look good:D

    I did NOT do the leathers
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    ....one-way ticket to Portugal booked !
  • My hubby makes the best roast spuds!
    ...Linda xx

    Now I'm REALLY hungry!

    There's a cafe in Otley where all the bikers hang out! I know what you mean about the leathers - Sometimes they look like they are back on the cow!

    It's nice up there except for all the new houses that they've thrown up recently.

    I was once driving up into Riddlesden and the woman in front of us got on the bridge and the thing started swinging round with her on it, her face was a picture!
