Listen guys - you need to get up here (the frozen wastelands of the North) to even begin to understand cold- I am sitting in the house with the heating full on and a couple of effing wooly gloves trying to restore circultation to fingers after another ball freezing stint in the garage, :smt009

Am off to install a heater - to hell with global warming -I cant stand the cold. In fact I would easily swap with the guy in Spain with the blown H bike. I get to live in the Spanish warmth and have to fix his bike and he freezes to death in Aberdeen with a fully functioning zxr - sounds like a great deal - where do I sign!!! :excited
