    Sibley you're a fool, but no doubt you're happy as you get other nutters to bite at your postings.

    Foxy, thanks for your lessons in life.
    I, like others, seem to be somewhat baffled by the apparent contradictions in your blissfully placid, happy and perfect life and your inability to accept others for what they are.
    Do you really think your ready meal internet philosophy is going to change a single person on here?

    All I know is, I'm happier now with cash in the bank, a nice car, a house and loads of other expensive "stuff" that I don't need, than I ever was when I was broke and living with my parents.

    So what you are saying is your easily led? Great to admit your own failings as a human.

    Why has the OP started yet another thread on this subject?
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    More importantly Fox, are you actually female?

    Fireblade in the garage and golf?

    Not concerned about the golf, but there is something quite unique about a lady on a fireblade :D

    Steady on Graham, you've already got one nipper. Please tell me you're not looking round for the next "volunteer"? :D

    At least I can admit I have failings unlike a lot of the self righteous little prats on here that do nothing but moan about how other people choose to live.

    Now, little story.

    Only time I ever seen a female on a fireblade was when I had the absolute pleasure of being stuck in a traffic jam for a good hour or so on the M5.

    For about, i dunno, 3 little minutes, the traffic jam frustrations were turned into, what I can only describe as beautiful scenery :D

    Fireblade. Young female. Summer. Tight "low riding" jeans. Thong. Tiny little leather jacket. Lots of midrift. Adjusting on the bike quite a lot.

    Could have been foxy....how many females have fireblades!!...just intrigued :cool:

    Afterall, terrible safety precautions....and thats obviously my concern here :A

    I'm sure some here will criticise me for my attitude, but only if they've walked a mile in my shoes will they have that right.

    No-ne here will criticise your story. It's your experience and valid.

    To assume anyone who is materialistic is unhappy though, simply as a result of your or Foxy's story simply doesn't follow.

    Exactly,

    You have no right to those thing other than as an advantage of your hard work.
