I enjoy watching most sports without being an active 'supporter' of any team and like most people I do enjoy seeing the underdog win so Barnsley beating Liverpool gave me a laugh nearly as much as it did Adie.
Oh, indeed it did. Not only did United give Arsenal a lesson in attacking football (which was especially pleasing, given their self-proclaimed 'best footballing team in the country, ever' tag), to see Liverpool go out to a bunch of nobodies with an injury time winner was just superb. I reckon they should make Rafa manager for life....
Sorry mate, it's fucked. Was an old 4 stup carbon jobby, hacked to fit the three stud VFR pipe. It's fallem in half so is no good at all. I have an old silencer off an 1100 Zephyr though... -- Dan L Too much time to think, too little to do. http://thebikeshed.spaces.live.com/ 1996 Kawasaki ZR1100 Zephyr BOTAFOT #140 (KotL 2005/6/7) X-FOT#000 DIAABTCOD #26 BOMB#18 (slow) OMF#11
I 'support' Derby County on the basis I can always say oh - derby lost again without ever actually needing an awareness of the scores, or who they played.
This is about the only thing that I've seen "football" and "funny" in the same sentance: (Mitchell and Webb)
What is it with these derby teams? Here it's as important for Sunderland to loose as Newcastle to win - and vice versa if you're a mackem.
In Liverpool (the city) its different. we hate them. they hate Manchester United. so its especially pleasing that United won so well on they day they lost to Barnsley. -- Adie (replace spam with nickname to reply) UKRM FAQ: http://www.ukrm.net/faq/ keeper of the ukrm faq for my sins YZF-R1 : ZX9R E1 : GPz 750 turbo MRO#11 BOTAFOF#7 BOTAFOT#130 DIAABTCOD#17 MIB#24 YTC#16 BOB#15 ex-UKRMMA#22 BOMB#11
I hope you bought her the 2.0FSI... The only issues we've had was when one of the side flaps' actuator springs had a snapped (plastic) ball-joint socket, so the flap wouldn't move. VW had it replaced the next day. One of the buttons on the stereo has stopped working, but a new one is being fitted this week.
Thanks, that looks really neat. Not quite the macho type favoured where we were today. After the last session the car park was like a scene from the dam busters. I think it would be perfect for a quick sluice down to remove the worst of the mortar before loading up. Looks like we will be having regular outings. Despite not being able to catch a 50 auto (ridden by the track owner's son) and a very quick KX65, the lad was doing very well on an unfamiliar machine second time on a proper track. Only one off, despite it getting very rutted on some table top launches and some fast washboard sections towards the end of the day. Should anyone else fancy a go on the dirt, and have a suitable bike, I would recommend J4M54. Very well organised. A track challenging enough to be enjoyable without being too daunting for newbies. Separate sessions for kids, intermediates and adults. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Pete Fisher at Home: | | Voxan Roadster Gilera Nordwest Yamaha WR250Z | | Gilera GFR * 2 Moto Morini 2C/375 Morini 350 "Forgotten Error" | +----------------------------------------------------------------+
