The Buddha of Broadland position is not one to be taken LIGHTLY :)

and at least I do not wear white boots... or have to wear a hat to keep my head warm as I have a lovely head of skin.....


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...

I wear a textile coat but I prefer leather trousers as I don't like the bulk of the textiles ones I've tried on. I deal with being caught in the rain by getting wet cold legs. In winter I only do short trips, ten miles or less. I've got some waterproof over trousers but I've never been arsed to wear them.
Where ever I lay my hat.....
