i may be up for this....

all depends on a couple of things - like if i have a job !

also, I am off that week and would love to get away on the bike for a bit


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Watch out for the average speed cameras on the cat and fiddle.

Sorry - things are rather "on hold" until we know where we are with the Mrs health so I'm not making any plans for "playing" at the moment.

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Tis not Nantwich, it's Northwich (about 30 mins north of Nantwich), and 10 mins away from my house. Let me know what time you're planning on being at Cat & Fiddle or at the lift, and I may try and make an appearance :smt006
