    Well well well... not sure a sarong (at least that's what it looks like) counts as a dress but lets run with it :D
    it's a lavalava technically (so yeah a sarong) I was getting tattooed in NZ all very traditional stuff, hence also why I look fu<ked up

    Bang! and The Jon is Gone

    Just a reference to the power of awesome displayed by JG, I clocked a top speed of 32.3mph trying to chase him down.

    Great Scott, Marty!

    Sounds about right. I've been doing 34.9 and not shaken him. In fact, I've never shaken him.

    Not strictly true. I got dropped before you at CP.
    Not sure what speed I was doing last night: I've been doing the commute sans ordinateur for the last couple of weeks. Quite liberating.

    Ah, but that's not SCR. That's like, er, well, *proper* racing <shudders>. Where one can hide in the safety of a peleton. :wink: (I seriously hope no one from "Road" reads this. :) )

    it does tickle a bit... they hit them into you with a stick (not to be confused with a d-lock)

    for example this POV shot demonstrates

    TommtEss, they're boar tusks cut into points they get dipped in ink and BAM, you're marked

    That's pretty cool - but marked like getting branded, or do they make a pattern/image?

    Will have to take a closer look next time I'm at the Morpeth.

    Awesome - I know what you mean now - a lot of the Maori All Blacks and other pacific islanders have similar, as you say, tattoo shorts that you can see when they're playing.
