Thanks all.

I still have to make the tea and I'm still parking the bike where I like.

What's the legal age over there TonyB? It's 8 here. My boy turned 8 last year but due to his ASD and noise sensitivities won't come near a bike if it's going. But my daughter is 6 and is hanging to get on the back. There's my motivation to have the D600 square by then!
I have no idea about the legal age. So I googled it:

So you can be a child and be pillion however there's no legal aspect of wearing full CE approved motorcycle gear bar the helmet. that's madness in my opinion. adults can take the risk of the skin being burnt off from the road as they are idiots but a child. Totally wrong in my opinion

I must admit I'm not keen on taking my kids on my bike until at least secondary school age but that's my personal choice and everyone is different.

12 month contract for a change and it's 7 miles from home... Really looking forward to starting, one more week of DIY to go.

I've been ignoring that for a little while. phpBB upgrades on a modified board are usually painful. I will get round to it at some point (blush)

Yeah puncture mate. Think I picked it up where I stopped for the bacon buttie so turned out an expensive buttie in the end.

Congratulations Nutz that sounds perfect, well done mate.
