Around where I live there are several (that I know off) Polish families, Shirebrook, many many there.

Many are still here, the one that hit me lives 3 doors down from my daughter, he has bought (or is buying) a house, and to his credit has spent some money on the place. Shirebrook, about 4 miles away has a very large Polish community, the vast majority work in the Sports Direct warehouse.

A Pole hit me last summer, and a Pole hit my daughters car last week......they top the league........and they were both driving BMW,s.....a bad combination it seems.

Merry Christmas.....hope he left you some nice presents.......

These things certainly bugger up your usual routine, something that you did with ease suddenly becomes laborious. With luck your Vertigo will soon be a thing of the past.....hope your x ray shows things are healing nicely

What?..eh?

I know......it is part of my deafness.....but I don't get it constantly.....thank the lord.

Welcome back.....sounds like you have had a terrible time of it.....hope the road to full recovery ain't a bumpy one. Vertigo....tell me about it.

Rude.

Its Water under the bridge @Pedro........ I am still the same old me, can't take a decent photo, can't string words together very well, but I have learned to not over react to things any longer.

Well done @Six30..........

That could be @Slowlycatchymonkey in action, do they get much snow where her gaff is in Spain? Oh and Merry Christmas to everybody.

Bike of the year in you sights.

Why do I feel like I won the wrong category Thanks for the votes..... but think I need to up my game. I still think the guys who voted for me are fucking deluded.

Not really, I bought a beat up car.

I had a 10 year break from bikes when my lad was born, seemed a good idea at the time. I did not do anything the money, just squandered it on fags and beer.

Just back, what a shambles.....this is the cleanest thing in their house!

Oh for the life of the rich and infamous.

I do have the 1 photo (posted it before) from a recent ride, and think it is very doubtful that I will get out again until the new year. Not a bike of course, but its the best I can do. ☺

Can't leave it any longer, got to go to my lads home to drop off the Christmas presents, nothing flash for them. I hate going though, it is the only place we visit where you wipe your feet coming out!...lads partner is a nice enough gal, but a lazy cow where housework is concerned....... But it's Christmas, so got to make effort, if only for the granddaughters.

No more pics like that please, I had to clean the mess up after I let my wife see it, she pissed herself laughing at it.

8 votes! ........this must be a joke that I am not aware of. I voted for @Pedro........ great writer, and photographer,

I know the area well, use to be up there every week delivering washing to the old folks Hark at me..old folk.

Thanks....I thought as much.

Is the word "nominate" a euphemism for something else?.
