Joe 90??

One of the highlights of my (long) life was meeting Joe 90 at Gerry Anderson's studios in Slough. Came away with a toy flying car and a photo of me, Joe and the mousetrap!

I rode my 250exc from glaaaaaaaaaarster to waltham abbey and back.
How much more useable is that?

My old Z1000ST
Ended up with 1000rx front end, Harris offset yokes, raask resets, piper 4-1, k&he's, dyna sparks, r&r shocks, GPz full fairing.
Fuck it was an evil beast of a bike, 550lbs tankslapping its merry way down the road, but I loved it until some Dutch bastard had it away!

Apparently hurts a lot when you're a grown up!

RNLI turned up at Downing St.
They'd heard that people were out of their depth in the cabinet.

Unless they have jurisdiction in France, dont think i have a lot to worry about.

Just had an email from them claiming a congestion charge fine on 5/10.
Pay £23.24 now or it will increase to £80 Do people really fall for such a poor scam?

My 'mate' is looking for something atm, is the bike interesting enough for a competent BAB or is it more a stepping stone bike.
He's just chopped in a FZ1 as it was 'a bit much'

It's on his CV according to ep6

Anybody looked to see just how much H-D will be charging (dyswidt) Charlie and Euan wannabes for the priviledge of saving the planet.
Glad i was sat down!
Not that i was even considering for a nanosecond entertaining the thought of owning 1.

I was bored and read the govt report into the introduction of noise cameras ( i'm ill and bored ok)
Some heavy science in there, but even the reports thrust of arguement was let the offender know they have a noisy exhaust by letter.
So more of a wrist slap to start with, until the tech moves on and ...

You couldn't beat a pug 504 pick uo. Abso ferkin lutely huge load space. We used to get 3 crossers in the back with ease.

Iirc its 75 and a bit at 130, and a 'recharge' takes @ 30s

We painted our south facing windows with ronseal weatherproof 10 year guarantee......
2 years later its peeling and flaking like the singing detective!

Hope your wood is better quality than the crap we get here!
We're about 1000 miles north of you and wood twists for fun here. Knocked up a slatted fence the other week, after a month of sun 2 areas had lifted by @ 3", and the decking which only gets sun in the afternoon assumes interesting shapes ...

What that needs is a couple of big orange stripes over the top!
Or possibly some swan vestas and a gallon of 4☆
