That's your mistake Clive go to the doctors at opening time and you will beat the lazy fuckers on the phone to it and if you don't get an appointment you've got out for a change it's a win win

Performance is a bit different on the dirt to the road, i had a mate that was a full on racer thought he was the fastest around he used to ride R1's and Ducatis as fast as he could on the road. One day he announced he was buying a CRF450 i mentioned it might be a bit too powerful for him to learn to ride off road on as it has pretty harsh fueling and throttle response but he dismissed me and got it anyway. I was talking to him in the pub the night after he got it and he leaned over to me and said smugly it's not too fast Fred, i said where have you been on it and he had only ridden it home from blunder road in Bridgend which was about 20 miles mostly motorway. He started riding off road with a few friends of mine and after a month he sold it told me it wasn't for him wasn't what he was into. A few months after that i bumped into the friends he'd been riding with, well he hadn't told me the full story had he apparently he spent more time on the floor than riding it falling off on the flat going up hill down hill in ruts you name it he'd fallen off on it and they all took the piss out of him, but he was the kind that couldn't take a bit of banter so the one day they were out after a bit of piss taking he disappeared. They waited for him for a while and when he didn't show up they started getting worried and went looking for him, spent a couple of hours riding around the forestry but no sign of him so they went to his house to see if his missus had heard from him before they called the emergency services and the fucker was there, he got pissed off and went home sulking and that's when he sold the bike and never mentioned it again to me. It wasn't the bike that was the problem though it was him he was too pig headed to take any advise because he thought he was the best at everything. That was another episode from dead Phil's short life. Oh that 350 will have plenty of power just don't expect to be tearing around at 80mph everywhere on it, your probably looking at 50 to 60 mph as a comfortable speed but it will get there pretty quick

Because i'm on the list it's like that for me when they start sending me messages saying i'm overdue an appointment the old i'm working away from home excuse comes out. As long as you keep in touch and don't ignore them their pretty good i went three years without a check up before my visit this year

Years before covid i was attending outpatients at the hospital for a few weeks and would be stuck there for hours some times. The place was heaving as it was but you would see a few injured or sick people with all of their family there waiting with them taking up valuable space with their 6 scummy kids running riot, selfish fuckers the lot of them. If i ever take up arms and put people out of their misery it would be doctors and hospital waiting rooms usually full of chavs, Great since covid though the places are empty

Yes but its at least a foot and a half away from his shorter stump

Getting a doctors appointment is virtually impossible here, luckily i don't get ill enough to need a doctor's attention very often but when i have i just turn up at the doctors and tell them whats wrong and they have seen me within half hour. I've done this three times in the last year and had the same result each time. i think it's to ward off the time wasters and unemployed treating it as a day out.

Don't encourage him we need less photos of men's private areas not more

It's like that here with dentists if you don't visit regular they strike you off their list and you got no hope of getting back on

The DR would be perfect but they don't officially import them here and are expensive for what they are

Now you mention yes, it's the same model as the wife's, it sticks to the road like glue and is really nice to drive but you feel every little bump and i need a winch to get me out its so low

For that price you can get yourself a nice Honda civic here five years younger with less miles https://www.cargurus.co.uk/Cars/inventorylisting/vdp.action?listingId=153213133&entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity=d3065&sourceContext=google&cgfv=0.25&cgfr=5&cgfab=Q&ax8324=506&px8324=p2&dnetworktype=r&cgfdate=202448&cgfloc=gb&type=&kw=&matchtype=&ad=&placement=&device=c&devicemodel=&adposition=&cp=20986444440&adg=&fi=&tid=&lc=9045357&lm=&tgt=&aceid=&cgsp=sp402041&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwztOwBhD7ARIsAPDKnkDpQPOP_hKEYseRYEsjvlb-8aypjxcXnq3DKjXZiXHMQJxNe7F0flkaAg55EALw_wcB&pid=mini_vdp_main_image#listing=153213133

If your buying an enduro bike your going to have all the short intervals with it. If you want an enduro bike with road bike service intervals your screwed as there isn't one Seriously though it depends on what type of riding you intend doing. If your just looking at the odd trail to ride when on a country road ride i'd be looking at a KTM690 Husky 701 or the Gas Gas 700 all the same bike, oodles of power and around 7000 mile service intervals but they do have a few teething issues that are easy to sort, probably already done if your buying second hand.

I broke my collar bone in one of those as a baby the old man crashed it with 5 of us squeezed in i'm sure i mentioned it on here before

Hopefully the snow will melt in the next 24 hours and he will have some other release for his boredom

I went for the V strom but then realised it wasn't Pete's new bike poll so changed it to the tiger 850

Thankyou

You've mentioned Hydro a few times i had to google what that referred to in Canada. It's water here but electricity with you. How much electricity is generated by water with you

Same here and the ones who have kids are not much better. I found one of our neighbours dogs walking around up the lane from her house, when i took it back and explained where i found it she said i don't understand why it was up there i told it to stay in the garden WTF. It was one of those chihuahua things it had the anger of 10000 wronged men when it was behind it's gate as soon as it was open it would run with it's tail between it's legs, the dog version of a keyboard warrior

I'm not that old you cheeky fucker i Just turned 56

Yup my kids are in their 20's now and i'm almost free so i don't need anything else to drain my resources or tie me down
