It's just after 5am, and here I am getting ready for work. I'm about to hop on my trusty TLS, and ride 100k's to work. It's about 5c outside, with a wind chill of zero; there's snow on the hills, and it is pissing down, for a change:laugh. I'm just having a last coffee, typing this in front of a roaring fire.....I must be mad, leaving this for the pitch black wet cold and windy miserable weather outside:coocoo. If I didn't have a wife and a four year old son to support (he's just informed me that when he's 5 he wants a CR50, or equivalent), I'd crawl back into bed and and say FTW....but I have a lovely wife, and an awesome 4 1/2 yearold boy, who rely on me to keep them fed and clothed. (not quite, darling wifey has two part-time jobs, and runs her own on-line business:hail; and still finds time to cook and clean and look after two kids...:dowhat). Oh well, now that's off my chest, I'll see you on the flipside...ciao for now, yours in motorcycle madness, TLJimmy.

From one Jimmy to another, I can only offer this: You will be rewarded in the kingdom of heaven (or the heaven of your choice) for your efforts here on earth!
Fight the good fight brother...ride safe!

Ride safe to work, have a good day, I'm on call and hoping for a quiet night, but I doubt it :devious

Just counting the days till weekend when a local mcc has its 'summer party' :dowhat

I say :dowhat cos I still got the wood burner roaring :laugh

I r pissed orf. I got halfway to work, stopped for gas and checked my messages. The guy my mate and I are building the house for is trying to wriggle out of his deal with us to build it. It's a specialist building material -Hebel - and we're two of a handful of people who are qualified to build with it in the region. His son who has been helping us is also a builder - and he's working for $200 per week:dowhat; as opposed to our tradesmans rates. He now thinks his son knows enough to carry on without us, and is wriggling and trying to put us off....they wiil get a shock when they get to the lintels and bond beams - though he seems to think he'll be able to phone us for advice when they get stuck:laugh. It'll be at consultant rates:devious.

Sooo, i rode 50k's out, in the rain, to get gas, then rode home:lol So I'm now off to build a fence for someone.

I have a coupla houses in the pipeline - but the bullshit paperwork, consents etc take nearly as long as the actual building:O, so I may have to go back to cutting down trees in the forestry; except I see timber useage is down 40 something %, and mill/bush workers are finding it tough too. This is now probably in the wrong forum.....I'm pretty confident I can get ork though - there aren't many qualified and experienced tree fellers out there; apparently it is too dangerous to teach on the Polytech courses:laugh
