His friends are of a similar age to him, and many were still CEOs or Senior Partners etc. Despite having grown up knowing them I'll admit to having been somewhat overwhelmed at times.

Re: What are you doing today ??
I've carried out 5 tests with 4 companies and the lowest was 78.6 and the highest 106.8. I got over 100 mbs on 3 tests and 96.5 on the 4th.
Upload speeds were around the 11 to 12 mbps mark.
I'll try it later on when it gets busy

Re: 1299s or 1199R
Ref the OP, deffo the 1199R, my gauge on Ducati's is wait 20-30yrs and see which one is most desirable, and it's nearly always the pita one with "character" that makes it.
Let's be honest if we were talking Paso or 888 we all know which one we'd have.

Re: 1299s or 1199R
Everything is just more complex these days. I doubt many on here can remember the days of cars that used points and distributors which were a constant source of problems and the bikes of those days were even worse. I think i read somewhere that the peak days of bike quality of finish and ...

Really good gig last night. I went to see the headline act, Hannah Lou Clark, but both of the support acts were excellent, which is rare.

Drove perfectly after that. I hope there's no major bills headed ...

Re: What do you want to vent about today?
Twots who can't drive 4x4s or SUV or whatever the feck they're called these days.
You should have a licence for something that size. Twits this morning drifting in their lanes, thinking they've not got enough room one side, moving over, panicking, moving back the way they were and so on. Feckwits.
