    Doubt it. My family are long lived on both sides. My heart's as strong
    as an ox. Or something. Got a medical in a few months. Will see then
    what they reckon.

    Plus my family's pretty miserable (on both sides) so I think it's fair
    to say the genetics seem to be inherited.

    Well, he hasn't really.

    But hell, she should go just for being a nutter.

    Poor form, but a quick google has been most revealing.

    How the ****** did I miss that? I must be so inured to the oddities of
    our lords and masters that this particular piece of lunacy failed to
    even register.

    So, not only is she serially incompetent, she's barking fucking mad to
    boot.

    Greeeeeeat.

    It does in my world. If I'm 'mandated' to do something I have to do it.

    She was the Minister for Women and Equality. Proved to me that Blair had
    a sense of humour.

    Just had one. Eyesight is as it was at 21, hearing is good (although it
    took four attempts to pass on my right ear but that was because I was
    being a spazz).

    BMI of 25 and blood pressure was/is 138/71 - I'm told that's highish but
    ok. As I'm a fairly sedantry TU official who spends a great deal of time
    in pubs I suppose it's not too bad at 40.

    So, no room for conscience, then?

    Unfortunately, there is no room for conscience in a democracy it is
    simply the subjugation of the individual.

    I'm only following orders/the will of the people*

    Stating the obvious, you are likely to die in some horrible sidecar/armco
    interaction long before you have to worry.

    I've probably done about 1000 miles with my sidecar. I think I almost
    know how to ride/drive/pilot it now.

    Oh but I was thinking of a home brewed attachment device on a more powerful
    bike!

    Well, I've completely re-hung the sidecar on the Z500, replacing three
    of the four mounts and lengthening the bar on the fourth. When I got it,
    you needed to steer it to make sure you went in a straight line. Now it
    pretty much goes in a straight line and doesn't shake its head.

    Of course the point about the power is a good one. Still, the Z500
    produces enough to make me mount pavements, scare bus queues, lift the
    third wheel (because I'm going too fast into left handers) etc. so I
    suspect that the K1100 will probably not be massively worse here.
    Please.

    speaking of which, assuming it recorded properly, do you want that
    "special material" stuck on a DVD[1] or ripped?

    [1] since it's on my Pioneer PVR, it needs to go onto DVD first anyway
    (which I could post you), but if you want it ripped I can do that as a
    second step.
