Re: What do you want to vent about today?

It depends on how we get on when I go there this afternoon. Interestingly enough, they wouldn't take a booking but told me to ring up about half an hour beforehand to reserve a table!

This probably sounds like more trouble than it's worth, but the missus wants to go there and it's her birthday today.

Re: Life is bitter, life is sweet.

Its when these sorts of things happen that it brings home that you should always take the first opportunity to do what you want to do when that opportunity arises as nobody can predict what tomorrow might bring - good or bad.

Re: ZX6r screen and other bits

I've got other bits and pieces lying about. I've found a box of bits. I need to check what's in there but it looks like the heat shield and some lowers.
