I cannot speak for anyone else but I have been enjoying this thread, keeps my mind off of my terminal cabin/spring fever malady. This, despite TC's good intentions and fine help has been getting worse lately. Couple of my buddies stopped by the other day and caught me pounding on the bottom of an empty bottle of Laphroaig with a rubber mallet trying to get the last of it to come out and play (squeezing and wringing a glass bottle does not seem to help) and I am a firm believer in the old addage that no bottle can be considered empty until the fumes have been sucked from the cork ('specially $60 a bottle scotch) so you see how bad it has gotten.
Sorry I did not have any good ones to contribute. I did however lift a couple for my backdrop collection (only the ones with XS11's in the pic). Oh, OK, one with a Ducati also as I used to own one of them.
I also lifted the one of Strayla. Thought of printing it and hanging it on the shed door to keep the neighbor kids away but SHMBO said that he didn't look mean enough and put a picture of me up there instead. Apparently THAT picture is even keeping the rats and the sparrows away!

If there are more than three bolts holding it on there, it is most likely a very important part!
Wife said the pests were all sitting there looking at your picture, mine on the other hand scares them. (LOL)
Perhaps children (?), you were a failure on the elderly, my mother says if you are in the area stop in and have a few brews with her and a bunch to eat. She thinks that you look better with all that hair than I did when I had a bunch! Ahh Well, heck we can't even use you for a bad example.
Seriously though, too bad you are on the other side of such a big pond, I would love to spend a few day or so riding with ya. There are some concerns however. Are kangaroos as fast as Wisconsin Speed Bumps (whitetail deer)????

Sorry Dave, redtube is a little too much, even as a link with warning. I won't say I have never visited it myself though. Love the pics though. More, more, more!
Sorry about the movie. How about these to make up for it. I should just spend an evening posting 5 pics at a time, and I would be a Guru by morning Or kick off for using too much space!
