You sound as wrecked as your bike. Hope you both recover soon.

Bad luck there Joe - hope things take a turn for the better soon.

Ah well, look on the bright side, if these things are supposed to come in threes, you've only one to go

When I had a stationary topple over turning round in pit lane @ Mallory last year, I lost some coolant from the header tank - hopefully that's what's happened to yours.

Those winds today were quite something - even chose to take the car to work this morning it was so wild.

We'd never have guessed

Does sound as though you've a lot on your plate at the moment .... but it'll be nice when it's all done, the bike's sorted, the sun's shining (being a bit optimistic there given the weather we had last year and this year so far) - It'll get better

Enjoy the party

No idea what Dundee's like .... except that maybe you can get a nice cake there.

(Really must see a bit more of Scotland one of these days!)

i want a bottle of that.

I'll have two bottles please!

How about renting a garage?

2 bottles of wine 'eh, I'm surprised you can find the keyboard

Bad luck Joe. Hope you get her fixed up soon.
