Off Topic The Goodhand Arms

I do agree Fran. But their schtick sells. I've no idea what Clarkson is like in 'real life' and whether they're all actually like that, or if it's just an act (I suspect they are a bit like that though!)

 

And he, Nadal and Federer are all starting on Tuesday not Monday.

 

Well at least you'll get to see Djokovic Al, can't you shoot a slow-acting poison dart at him or something?

 

Of course. The Mail is one of the most offensive publications, and they do it on a daily basis. The Three Amigos offensiveness pales into insignificance by comparison. I don't forget that.

 

I can't help but like and admire Djokovic though...

 

Haha, he has a tough draw though so maybe Kohlschreiber can do it on his own. If not, I'll lob a few £5 strawberries at him and an empty glass of £10 pimms

 

Unbelievable athlete. And the best returner in the game.

 

Seems a decent chap too.

 

A man has been beheaded in an Islamist attack in Lyon.

 

Oh.

If you want to be happy, stop reading the news. That little snippet does nothing at all for your happiness, despite being, frankly, completely irrelevant to your life. Did you know the victim? Is there any prospect of it happening to you?

In all honesty, I don't see why anyone feels the need to post stuff like that on here. If we want to know we'll be on the BBC news website.

P.S. I know the correct response is "Oh that's awful, terrible, need to do something".

 

Cue loads of lunatic Americans saying "if the people in the factory had guns...."

 

I agree.....but if only he could get the dreaded lurgy

 

Flying club class for the Feyenoord game

Come on Saints, give us the ticket details, I like to be organised

 

FAO : TSS and any other bike riders on here.

I'm 31, have a full car licence... If I take my CBT can I ride ANY 125cc moterbike?

Thanks in advance.

 

Terrible news, but although odd to say, it could have been worse: the terrorists were planning to blow up the factory, but that was thankfully foiled.

 

Any restricted 125cc, yes. Restricted means 15bhp or less. Believe me, that's enough for a new biker.

An unrestricted 2-stroke sports 125cc can produce anywhere upto 30bhp and are quite a handful to ride. You can ride those when you have passed your full test. Generally people get a much bigger bike almost straight away. That's not the best policy, imo.

Watch out for when the bug bites though..!

 

Thanks! Helpful.

 

And remeber the laws of the road, which seems impossible for 99% of bikers out there!

ps I did CBT and Direct Access and passed when I was 40 and went out bought a Street Triple, four years and almost 10k miles later still puts a smile on my face.
