Wars??

Impossible to calculate the cost of.....an armed force costs an indeterminable amount whether it is sitting on it's arse or storming the beaches.....it's a Mars Bar....costs a quid whether you eat it or not.

Doncha just love the analogy??

I have no problem paying the higher rate of tax but would prefer for my taxes to be spent on schools, hospitals, roads, fire service, police etc. Not spending billions on wars and bailing out bankers

Why is some one with wealth smarter than sombody less well off ? Sorry...my bad. Not smarter.....better! :D Smarter/better/call-it-what-you-will at making money....which like it or not is how most people just others...the acquisition and accumulation of personal wealth. All people are NOT created e...

I think it's daft that you should pay more tax the more you earn not smarter but they have just done well in life why should you be punished for doing well in life? Am self employed after 40k or something anything g after that I have to pay 40% why should I have to 40% because I grafted me arse off ...

Why is some one with wealth smarter than sombody less well off ?

... selling burgers....under Labour in the 70's the tax rate for high earners jumped to 98% at one point!! So those who are wealthy get punished for being smarter than average....nice idea!! No wonder they jumped ship and took their money with them...and then the Govt. gets nowt and has to rely on ...

... with wets on (first time ridden with wets) it was amazing, I felt like a riding god, until the afternoon when the sun came out and I was back to being done by everyone lol. Stay warm and dry is my message of wisdom, I could not get my gloves back on with my hands so cold and wet, makes for a ...

Damn phone camera's being good enough to get a high quality picture.

Sorry, not sorry Rossgo! haha. I'm itching to get back out too but can't afford to tax it until next month so Silverstone is going to be my first proper ride this year!

... one that was good aswell I had a shoei rutter rep really loved that helmet,I head butted the Tarmac in it though :D Sounds bad mate . Still got it being in four crashes in it never head my head bad enough to get rid was yours the one with the big fat white strip down the middle i know he did a few

Going to be good racing at Silverstone this weekend all that testing over winter comes to this .

Haslem and shakey to win a race each i think can't wait being abit of banter between them too

... really did set a new standard for war movies....I have a tough time imagining how they'll come close to that standard without negative comparisons being made. BUT!!!.....If Tom Hanks gets involved then it might just work....

... out mode again. The power..... Lovely ride back from a mates via box hill on the back roads. Some boy racers out yet all they ended up doing was being a speck in my rear view mirror. Ha ha. Just going to lower the rear sets as my knees are in my ears. Gotta love Kawasaki for putting two settings ...

The 999 is being recorded this afternoon for a video game, some guy requested a few Ducati's he needed on the Ducati forum so I obliged. Turned out it was the same bloke who recorded my RSV4 a few years ago. When I meet him later ...

I agree with your suggested use of the Supercorsa. Sunny day tyre which may be ok in the damp but wouldn't use in full rain without being very nervous especially at track pace.

... as a sunny weather tyre only really? OK on the road where you can baby it along if it rains but that isn't really an option on track. Or am I just being paranoid/misinformed? I'm not going to do anything before Monday when the forecast should be pretty accurate but I want my options ready for then ...
