Youth BIke 2005

[Creature]

Hi all Polly the pirate here again. Me and Creature could only go for a few hours on Saturday due to other commitments, but what a few hours it turned out to be.
I just love it when Creture puts me on his shoulder and we go for a ride, altho I wish he would slow down (down the hills :) ) as my eyes start to water.
We arrived around 12.30 and soon met up with Captain Smurf,some trike r us & a few stall holders I knew. After a chat n drink, got collered by Capt. Smurf to help with judging, (not that I done much).
As we walked around, I spoke to many of these kids and was surprised to learn that many had been excluded from skool for various reasons, yet they showed a passion and ethusiasm that my teachers of the 70's would have nurtured and been very proud of.
These kids were very enthusiastic about restoring bikes/projests and the pride of there adult helpers was plain to see. I hope many of these kids continue with this passion, I feel they could teach our education system a lot (if only the powers that be would listen).
If any of you kids or adult helpers see this - I am proud to have seen what you have achieved and to have met you. Indeed My overall impression from all these kids was that they lacked confidence and just wanted people to listen to them........

[Mrs Smudge]

just tried capt. smurf's link... t'was fine!

[Captain Smurf]

Just checked again - all fine.

Sounds like you could have some scumware on your computer - redirecting links to other places.

" Some current scumware includes Gator, Surf+ and TopText. You may not have downloaded any of these but if you have programs such as KaZaa, you may have inadvertantly downloaded one of these with it." From http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/articles/scumware

(Hope I'm not teaching granny........) :p

[Creature]

not from my website - m8

sorry but your the only one having probs - check for viruses/trojens/worms/spyware on ya comp.....

Hi Creature... :D

... although Smudge is looking rather official :confused:
thats a first then !

[Smudge]

thats a first then !

Was doing real well at it until Smurf got three pics of me falling off a unicycle
(still got to try these things ant ya ) :D

[Captain Smurf]

I'm finding goldfish now. Looks like the page might be compromised, Creature

[Captain Smurf]

Tried to open http://www.hondasohc.co.uk/rally/rally05/youthbike/index.html
in Firefox and got goldfish. Switched off 'load images' in Firefox and went through your homepage, rally page and clicked youthbike link. Page opened (without images, obviously). Switched load images back on and refreshed. Images appeared.
Could be a web bug, which relies on page loading images, interfering. If it is, then it's probably a faulty one.
See http://www.leave-me-alone.com/webbugs.htm

p.s. Creature, may I use dscf0002.jpg, as it's a good picture of my famous shorts :)

[smeghead]

ah so im not going mad then, i get through to the page sometime other times its different pages, although the link is always the same in the address bar
