thoughts are with you mate
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...

Will be thinking of you and Ross, and will sort the drink sometime tomorrow.
Off out to Huddersfield with my mate (Dave) to sort out buying Tweaker's Falco (My oldest mate Dave buying from another mate Dave), and may not be back too early.
Strange how things pan out in life.
Anyway, keep your chin up mate, we're all here for you if you need a chat.
Catch you later.

Thoughts will be with you and yours tomorrow Ian.
Sat here with a glass of JD, consider it duly raised for Ross.

I'll raise a glass to Ross.
Chin up Ian.
In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

It'll be an honour to raise a glass with you Ian. Keep remembering the happy times.

The ride is the reason ........ the destination is just the excuse.

Glass duly raised, birthdays are always a time for remembering.

Here's to Ross.
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

All the best to you Ian, and the rest of the clan, you know where we are.
Here's to Ross, I'm sure he will never be forgotten.
Just wait until your grandchild is 21.
