Oh yeah - I'd not thought of that! .... right gloves are off now that I've got an incentive ..... you'll have to fight me for the job now (unless you're TN the Cage Rage Warrior - in which case I'll gracefully admit defeat .... see thread on the 'old forum' if you don't understand)

I reckon this is the first time I've ever been nominated for anything positive as opposed to "first over the wire" type nominations at work etc..

Happy to give it a go if everyone is happy with the choice. As Andy has already said If we make a mess of it we'll be the first to recognise it and step down for others.

I reckon he has hit the nail on the head regarding the footie, "things can only get better" would be a good slogan for Leeds at the mo, although I remember when we played the Chumbawumba track "I get knocked down, I get back up again" as the boys came on, I reckon we need it again!
On the plus side I am no longer distracted by Sky Sports and have a little extra time to devote to the site

The Falco won't be sold this year as my daughter now needs braces and our good old government has stopped paying for them (unless your teeth are so crooked they need parole) so I will be £3,000 lighter by summer. It's got to the stage where I can't really see me ever selling her unless the right offer came in and lets be honest, it's unlikey

So what would you replace the Falco with Falco9? (if you were changing it)

Happy to do it, but D-Rider and F9 get my vote.

Yep - invest in those braces F9 ... we can't have your daughter's trousers slipping down!

Ok... I do know what you really mean re the costs and changes in funding for orthodontic work - my 2 eldest kids (eventually) had their teeth sorted on the good old NHS. 3rd one came along and the dentist screwed up his referral - by the time we sorted this out the funding rules had changed and we were told we could go ahead but it would cost £2500 or so.
With 2 kids already done, how do you say NO to the third?!
Anyway, think he thought it was a bit much and as he had more problems with his lower teeth decided he would save us the cash (thank God). I think he's planning to come back to us in a couple of months to remind us of this as he's approaching 16 and wants a scooter (not that I'll need much pursuasion .... although I'd sooner he was starting on a 125 rather than a gutless 50cc thing that can't keep up with traffic.

BTW your daughter will be glad you decided not to sell her .... If you are that sure the right offer won't come along, can I take it that she takes after you rather than her mother?

is poxy sad when a postponement means that we didn't lose any more points this week....

only relieving thing was that the six fingered and hump backed friends of mine - aka the norwich fans were all crying onto their sisters shoulders/humps....

Wey Hey - time for the power to start corrupting!

The campaign now starts to get Aprilia to name their new V4 the:
Aprilia Moderator

How cool will that make us then F9 !

Don't think it couldn't happen with recent names like "Shiver" and "Mana" anything is possible!

Right, I'm getting a bit hungry - time for some of you "Pizza Delivery Riders" to earn your crust and turn up with the goods!

No problem D-rider, we'll just have to discuss the delivery charge first

Oh, and I'll have to warn you about my cooking (even a pizza) - it's not the best
