Ohhhhh yeah baby!!!! You may remember I had a rant on Suzukiron's rantathon about a bloke who had treated me like dirt and so I dumped him and met Mitch a week later, but at the time I ws really upset to be treated so badly and had a real self image problem at the time, not feeling good about myself etc etc, much snivelling and the whole job!
Anyway, to the point! I was at my bike club party last night singing alonga Stevie and who should walk in....................I couldn't resist of course and flashed me wedding ring and told him what a totally fab life we have these days and all the cool things we're doing with our lives + I've lost about 2.5 stone since I last saw him so was feeling cool.
Anyway it transpires he hasn't had a girlfriend since and that was four years ago we went out. Also stuck in dead end job and hasn't had a bike on the road for about 10 years. He left early looking fed up and I was very tempted to do the fuck off dance (like an Indian war dance) but naturally I'm too much of a ladee :D
Sometimes you feel life is really worthwhile! ;)

Awwwwww shucks! Last night was quite funny really... a similar thing happened to me a couple of years back. Me and Mrs R were running this stall at some pagan do in Croydon - selling candles and that sorta thing.
My ex turned up (ex after six years of misery, me drinking heavily to escape and no bike for most of that time - cos we 'couldn't afford it' etc. not going to go on about it here - not the right place). She was so astounded to see that me and Mrs R were still together (with one of mine and my exes old friends who she accused of trying to cop off with me) and looking so happy she ran out of the hall where we had the stall and went off into the night, never to be seen again!!

sweet moments like that don't happen very often, but when they do it makes up for all the crap you've had to put up with. the important thing is you refrained from doing your fuck off dance thus maintaining a level of dignity which will piss off your ex even more. :) btw mich hows the arm/bike ?

Well, the arm's not tooooo bad. I thought about taking some ibuprofen earlier as it felt a bit inflamed but then I remembered I'm on these new tablets for something else so I've got to clear it with my GP. It's the tricep that's causing the grief, plus my left wrist got a bit painful, but it's OK now.
I'm going to get an appointment with the docs tomorrow just to make sure all's OK (It didn't affect me drinking last night at the LXIX do). The old bill were 'really nice' :eek: and said now I've mentioned to them about banging my arm, it's now counted as an injury (however minor) so the matter is therefore reportable :D (so I did!!)
The bike on the other hand is a bit of a state, right mirror smashed nicely, right hand engine casing and the ignition thingy are both knackered so will need replacing. Drag bars are bent to hell and the seat came off, tank's got a dent in it, the same size as an old Crown, taken the paint clean off! And the exhaust's got a scrape down it, along with the footpeg that has been munched by the road.
Stupid thing about it is that the fuel tank bracket had been welded on so well, the whole thing stayed on - phew!
I've supposedly got a hire car coming soon and soon they'll be taking the bike away to be fixed...! This fully comp lark isn't bad!
Cheers again guys... you've all been sound!

Too right mitch Get down the GP and see if he can find some other crap to claim for it's gotta be done. If it was the boot on the other appendage you can be sure you'd be getting screwed for everything for a trip to disneyland :D

Nice one,Mrs R! They say revenge is a dish best served cold :D .
Glad to hear you're getting better Mitch. My club currently has two casualties - one had a car pull out in front of him at a T junction (femur broken in 3 places, scaphoid bone in one hand broken, ring finger on other hand broken), the other was stationary in a traffic queue on a roundabout when a cage pilot just decided to join the roundabout through him! (broken scaphoid). Both bikes written off! Both cage pilots of female variety! (This is not a dig at females generally, just the idiots that drive cars badly!)

well... just got back from the doc's
he said, my deltoid muscle in my right arm got tugged as I landed on it and my left wrist is sprained (a bit...) which is enough really and about all I can cope with. Totally pissed off with the whole thing now!
Good thing Kevlar ain't it, I've finally realised (after he told me - doh!) it's used on jackets to help you slide better as you go down the road!! :eek: I see grasshopper!! Now I know how a non-stick pan feels!!!!
the rest of my pains are just me getting old... (ankles knackered - I'm already one of Mrs R's patients at uni for them, back pains - through working outside loads, collar bone - 1990 and the feckin' dog that ran out into the road on me!
Me and Mrs R are a right pair of old crocks with her nursing days. The body of a fifty two year old with the brain of a (thirty) two year old!! I suppose considering all the miles I've done in the past fourteen years (at one point doing 1500 a week when I was despatching up north - that was till 1994) I've not done bad really
