  1. Well, as a lad I remember these coming out, should be OK to pull a 4 berth http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-Goldwing-gl1500-aspencade-/250877215169?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item3a697281c1 But for true style how about this:
  2. If that's your thing then I see no valid reason not to buy a new one - it's not like you can't customise it further. Triumph seem to sell enough of the retro stuff to suggest that plenty of people feel the same way.
  3. ...and often disappointed if you believe the forecast Anyway, we are about due for winter to start now, as summer had ended by April!
  4. My initial job was sorted before I left school at 16.... then got to 18 and decided (because at 18 you think that everyone giving you sound advice is old, knows nothing and it's not really what you want to hear) that I wanted a proper job like what my mates had and life went downhill from there Then spent the next ten-ish years doing whatever job paid money (predominantly motor trade, building trade and driving) because I had a wife and kids to keep in clothes. My last 'career' started out of pure desperation for a job, deciding to apply for at least 20 jobs that day in the local paper (those were the days!) and the first place that interviewed me wasn't too put off by my very long hair (those were the days, MK2!) and I started the next day on a part time basis, doing a job I didn't want to do, in an industry that I had no interest in. A combination of luck (both types) company buy-outs and a little bit of competence on my part ended up with an interesting and fairly autonomous national role in a reasonably sized multi-national company and despite the odd attempt to change industry completely I always seemed to get dragged back. It really depends what you want out of a job, for example my best mate has *always* been driven by purely earning money and had rarely done less than a 70 hour week in the last 25 years, often either entailing a hefty commute on top or staying away from home 5 days a week, whereas another mate has always wanted to just earn enough to pay the bills, won't commute more than 10 miles or do more than a 35 hour week - the upshot is that they are both very happy with their 'lot', but would keel over of they had to swap jobs. If doing something that you like and find interesting doesn't pay the money or offer the career progression that you want, it's at least worth a try before you are financially or circumstantially obliged to do something else. Moral of the story 1: Sometimes get what you want and you then don't want it, and sometimes you fall into something by accident that pushes your buttons. A bit like women and bikes then

    Afternoon and welcome geezer
  6. Just ask the buyer to cancel the payment and re-send it to the correct email address.
  7. Yep, awful isn't it. Trouble is the dark nights make my body clock a bit odd, come November I'll be wanting to go to bed by about 4.30
  8. Fingers crossed for a good recovery - hope the results are better than you anticipate. On a brighter note, chicks dig scars.. ..oh hang on..
  9. Not forgetting the long term project - "Taming a Woman" Seriously though I suppose most forums expand the amount of sections as the user base grows and diversifies.
  10. Hiya fella and welcome to the madhouse
  11. Am I the only one that read the thread title and assumed it was going to be a rant about "Question Time"?
  12. H Paul and welcome to the place
