Gio if you're starting the bids at 16 you haven't put a button/buttons on for children, that's cheating

So qualify the poll a little.

Is it at what age do you stop being a child? What age is your youngest? eldest? or average?

And Blinkey I recon 41 aint a child any more. Close but no you should be thinking about shaping up and slowing down a little in time for Mallory.

Mrs. Viking says I'm a bit of a child sometimes.

But then - growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

Just put the ones she knows about ? :smt002
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

I am not the only kiddie in the house but I put my birth age in - is that what you wanted? IF you wanted behaviour age you need to lower the bar :smt006

I think she might just about remember all of them - you tend to find that the act of whinging about the pain of childbirth casts an indelible imprint on the female of the species.

As midwives say - its all natural so stop Whinging


But most mid witches are single and childless so....


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...
