Its A Tough Life

#1 Post by EdinburghFalco » Mon Apr 06, 2009 3:00 pm

Just landed a new part time job which will mean me spending 2 days a week through the summer having to ride my Falco through the beautiful twisties of rural Perthshire and even up and over Glen Shee to various meetings. Its a tough life but someone has to to do it! I'll be thinking of you boys in your offices and factories!

congratulations

you have some waterproofs for all that scots sunshine??

(No I am not really jealous..... b******!)


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...

Surely you're not trying to say that midges are faster than a Falco...? :smt103

Its when you stop and they fly up inside your helmet and attack you so that when you take your helmet off you look like a spotty faced teenager again :smt009

Yup, just think of them splattered all over your visor, the poor Falco, your leathers, what a pain to have to put up with all that.
Jealous really! Just enjoy it whilst you have the chance mate! :smt002
