    Men can be SO touchy at times.................

    .............. and it's not "hitting" :wink:

    What bike do you have? Trek T10 Hybrid

    Can I call you 'sister'. :lol::lol:Sure! As long as you understand that I can call on you when I am skint or the bike needs general repairs or somebody has upset me at work and I want you to beat them up :D

    Perfect! Having just imbibed 1.5 glasses of Lidl's finest Prosecco, I'm having a little trouble finding the right keys to produce words (heavy use of backspace key :D )

    Your Sauvignon should just about finish me off ........................ AND dinner is now cooking so I'm forced to stay upright and closer to the cooker :?


    Just found the bottle of salted peanuts so should be slightly sober after much nibbling :)

    Seriously, DDD? Your ethnicity is clearly a very important part of who you are, but sometimes you throw it into conversations to give yourself some kind of "I'm the only one of us who can have had this experience". Sometimes it's relevant, sometimes it's not. It's kinda o_O that you didn't know Moonio was black despite her mentioning it several times.

    You like being differnt to the rest of us (though the implication inherent in that is you see *us* as homogeneous and unable to call on that special something to add to our arguments). Fine. I'm not racist, not remotely, so all I can do is say I'm sorry you feel offended and it wasn't intended as anything other than banter.

    I'll leave race out of it from now on.

    Attaching a very-much over used derogrative sterotype to justify your stance... I think all of the above is a lot to assume of a person if you've only ever really interacted with them over the internet - a lot of the time 'it' being banter - and never truly taken the time to sit down and had a coversation with them.

    Thank you.

    Wow - we went OT here for a bit didn't we!

    Getting things back on track, anyone for a beer/wine/coke etc tonight? Blondie and DDD should both come along, kiss and make up. Moonio, Wanda - be nice to put names to faces if you fancy a drink?

    I'm not gay! (also I think we already made up. With sexy results)

    Have fun you lot. I'm off to a Young Person's Festival this afternoon, where I shall no doubt sit on a deckchair with a handkerchief on my head tutting about the so-called "music" which is far too loud and they call that a tune? And put some clothes on young lady - IS THAT CIDER?

    Damn 50p in the £1 tax bracket... when's pay day?

    Still a possible yes, for one or two and then soft drinks thereafter.

    Have fun you lot. I will be on a plane reluctantly returning to Londinium while you all have beerz. Pah. What's the weather like?

    There is very little evidence of SCRing in Florida, I can report. Although I spotted a few tarty roadies in Miami.

    No can do this evening - working from the Tooting office today and mentally priming myself for the London to Brigton on Sunday.

    Weather has been very nice of late, TN.

    Enjoy the beers all. :D

    You're gonna need a lot of mental priming, the L2B is a chuffing nightmare. :shock:

    Yes Jash, I did mean the double meaning both mileage and the hordes! TN & LBaguley gave me the dire warning at MA drinks some weeks ago! At least I am mentally prepared for the frustration. I am thinking of investing in a:
