Online interaction
... me thinking about the way people are online. I was once told by someone who met me for the first time after knowing each other online for several years, that he wasn't disappointed as, in his words, "you're as much a qunt in real life as you are online" . I found that flattering. Dogbot ...

Re: Sepang - Day 3 Moto GP Testing
Glad to see Marquez is getting quicker.. I want this lad to be upsetting the field again next year by winning back to back again.
He definitely needs to sort his head out though because he's not the same rider he was in the first 2 years !!

Re: Stoner back on a Ducati
That's exactly what I'm hoping for Kwacky.. a good proper rivalry.
I don't know how many years Rossi has in him though so it may be short lived, maybe Marquez vs Stoner if Stoner comes back for good though !!

Re: Stoner back on a Ducati
I've always found Stoner to be a miserable fecker off the track but a fantastic rider on it. Him and Rossi have needled each other over the years and I reckon Rossi had the upper hand. But Rossi for me cracked last season and part of me hopes Stoner has seen that and wants some revenge. With ...

RIP
Really upsetting as he's been in our cars and homes for many years. Part of the establishment and a constant in entertainment.
Big shame and he never seemed old.....

Re: Stoner back on a Ducati
Interesting they had him out on last years bike rather than testing this years. Now they have changed it so he rides against the team riders. Sounds like they are interested in benchmarking him against the current crop. I'll be very surprised if he doesn't do a GP race sometime through the year.

Re: Rossgo's Test Day
Well-done mate, you've worked hard and earned that..
Having passed the iam myself a few years back, and having ridden with you, there was never any doubt.
As a side note, where is hanger cafe? Is that popham airfield?

... my pay rise to pay the finance. But from a max valve for money a low mileage 2010/2011/2012 for 4 to 5k is hard to argue with. I could sell it 3 years later and still get 3k plus for it.

Re: Feels strange
Good luck with the new venture.
I tend to move jobs every 5 or 6 years. My old man left school and worked for the same company all of his life, from apprentice to director. I think those days are pretty much gone.

After 7 years at my current firm, today is my last day. At a bit of a loose end really as I can't do anything.
Just looking forward to the new challenge ahead.
