Yep that's true polly!

Hope he recovers quickly and quietly

Thanks! One can only hope...

Ouch! He's lucky his injuries weren't far worse. I had someone pull out in front of me recently too and then stop. Fortunately I was far enough away able to stop just in time. That's the only problem with motorcycle riding - we are so much more vulnerable in an accident. Hope he has a speedy recovery.

Cheers.


I have to say, I hope he has a speedy recovery too, he's driving me bloody nuts!

they always drive you nuts when they are ill!!
I hope he recovers quickly and you and the kids manage to get some holiday time in.

The only time my OH came off his bike was trying to catch up with me on mine! as mine was a 600 cc hornet and his was a super blackbird I've always been rather proud of that

Aww thanks Asher!


Excellent story regarding the bikes. And so you should be proud if it was me he'd never hear the end of it.

My grumble is road trains, living semi rural I travel the great northern highway on a daily basis, along with many road trains
I never pull out in front of them as I appreciate thay are long heavy vehicles, that have taken a while to pick up speed, and would take a lot of breaking if I pulled out in front
So why the hell do they pull out in front of me?
Today I am travelling at just over 100ks, when this mother of f****r massive road train pulled out of petrol station, right in front of me, resulting in me having to slam on my break s!!
They do this all the time!

Most of the grumbles on here are to do with one vehicle or another.

Nutters at the cinema, never had this problem before......



Went to watch 'Noah' last night with friends and our kids ( to escape the ever demanding husband, arrggggghhhhh! )

It was a full house and the last two remaining seats were next to my son, I was on the other side of him.
5 mins into the film a couple walked in rather noisily and made a fuss about where they had to sit ( which was next to my son, poor lad!) so that was that.

Half way through the film the bloke decided he needed to go out for whatever reason and started walking down the steps to the exit tunnel, but he walked straight past it and out of the fire exit!

A good 20 mins later he came back, through the normal door and walked back up into his seat and sat down. And then it started, the arguing, whispering at first, my son was so naffed off, so I offered to swap seats. The arguing got louder and people started to tell them to 'SHHHH!'

I didn't want to say a anything to them because they looked like a pair of nutters and I didn't want to end up in a battle with them, I was hoping that someone from the cinema might come in and escort them out, but that never happened.

Eventually he got up and walked out, about ten mins later at the bit in the film where Noah was thinking about killing two babies, she stood up and screamed. 'THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN IN THE BIBLE!!' Everyone of course turned around and looked our way. She then stood up and said, I'm sorry, I'm going to have to leave" and walked out.




I thought thank God (or Noah) for that!!



By the way it's a good film, slow start but gets better - minus the nutters!

Haha that's funny, reminds me of the time the gold class lounge was booked out and I had to slum it in the regular theatre! We had a nutter in there right behind us he was alone although he was sat right next to others because it was quite full and he laughed really really loudly all the way through the movie... It wasn't that funny, although the parts that were everyone else was laughing more because he was making us all laugh! True story

Tropical Cyclone Ita has just laid waste to the banana crops in the far north of Queensland.........

There's that cloud with its silver lining again!

Haha! Good story!


By the way ' gold class?' Tell me more....

So, does that mean that banana prices will reach a dollar a kilo this year then?..
