  2. A woman asks her husband at breakfast time, "Would you like some bacon and eggs, a slice of toast, and maybe some grapefruit juice and coffee?" He declines. "Thanks for asking, but I'm not hungry right now. It's this Viagra," he says. "It's really taken the edge off my appetite." At lunchtime, she asked him if he would like something. "How about a bowl of soup, homemade muffins, or a cheese sandwich?" He declines. "The Viagra," he says, "really trashes my desire for food." Come dinnertime, she asks if he wants anything to eat. "Would you like a juicy rib eye steak and some scrumptious apple pie? Or maybe a rotisserie chicken or tasty stir fry?" He declines again. "No," he says, "it's got to be the Viagra. I'm still not hungry." "Well," she says, "Would you mind letting me up? I'm starving."

  5. Have a look at these pictures. When the pictures load just move your mouse from the right hand side towards the left of the pictures and see the floods before and after. http://www.abc.net.au/news/infographics/qld-floods/beforeafter2.htm
  6. This new Harry Potter film is all well and good but I can't help thinking it's all a bit far fetched. I mean how many schools do you know of where there's a ginger kid with two mates? I never thought I would see a woman become Prime Minister of Britain. And I was right. On the eve of Margaret Thatcher's election victory in 1979, I looked at the sun through a pair of binoculars. I'm sick and tired of women droning on and on about the pain of childbirth when they have access to any amount of pain relief. Where was the nurse with the gas and air or the epidural needle when Andrew Skelfington kicked me in the balls with his big hobnail boots in the school changing rooms in 1978?. My dog may not be able to count to ten or say "sausages" like the dogs on Esther Rantzen's "That's Life" but it can certainly hold its own in a fight against a badger. They say "you can't judge a book by its cover". What nonsense. The last edition of High School An@l that I bought featured a young lady stuffing a big one up her bomb-bay on the front page, and this turned out to be an excellent indication of the contents. Hats off to the England cricketers for their achievements in the Ashes last summer, which rightly earned Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff BBC Sports personality of the Year. Winning a two-team tournament against a nation with a much smaller population once in every ten attempts, then never shutting up about it makes me proud to be British. Why are huntsmen so upset about the recent ban on hunting foxes? They should paint one of their dogs ginger and hunt that instead. Whenever I buy a DVD I have to sit through a trailer telling me not to watch pirate movies. Yet Johnny Depp stars in one and the posters all say 'Must See'. Make your minds up, Hollywood moguls. I was at a wedding yesterday, and the vicar said - I kid you not - "Don't be embarrassed to touch your rings if it gives you pleasure." No one understood why I laughed out loud. You often hear people say that "Blood is thicker than water". Well I've got both coming out of my a*** right now, and to be perfectly honest I can't feel any difference. The government says that there are nearly 50,000 people with HIV in Britain, a third of whom do not even know that they have it. Is it just me, or is it a bit harsh that the government know and haven't told the poor sods? With reference to that series "Manhunt" where ex-Special Forces soldiers try to hunt down Andy McNab. Why don't the producers include a couple of Iraqis in the hunting team? They found the tvvat quickly enough the last time he played hide and seek with them. I never worry about the destination when I'm going on holiday. My dad is Iranian and my mum is Irish, so I spend most of the time in customs. On the BBC website, I read with interest that some scientists in Australia have discovered the smallest fish known to exist. They've obviously never been to the Britannia Chippy on the Gloucester Road. Why is it that pubs wont serve me if Im drunk, but McDonalds continue serving fat people? Its hardly fair. I was shocked to hear Home Secretary David Blunkett say that Britain's prison population has been ballooning for the past ten years. My God, has the world gone mad? Those people are there to be punished, not to be given 'thrill of a lifetime' experiences that most law abiding citizens can only dream of. These do-gooders are now telling us we shouldn't hunt elephants. Perhaps they'd like to explain where precisely we're going to get our ivory from? 'ONE pound a week will supply water for an entire village in Tanzania', says Oxfam. So how come United Utilities charge me twenty pounds a month for my three bedroom semi? The fleecing bastuds We are police vice squad officers, that is to say porn cops, and our favourite breakfast cereal is Corn Pops. Do any other readers have favourite breakfast cereals that are spoonerisms of their occupations?
  7. For the fans of 24, both of you. * There are two hands that can beat a royal flush. Jack Bauer's right hand and Jack Bauer's left hand. * The city of Los Angeles once named a street after Jack Bauer in gratitude for his saving the city several times. They had to rename it after people kept dying when they tried to cross the street. No one crosses Jack Bauer and lives. * Jack Bauer never retreats, he just attacks in the opposite direction. * Most people would need months to recover from 20 months of Chinese interrogation. Jack Bauer needs a shower, a shave and a change of clothes. * On Jack Bauer's Tax Returns, he has to claim the entire world as his dependents. * When a convicted terrorist was sentenced to face Jack Bauer, he appealed to have the sentence reduced to death. * Some people see the glass as half full. Others see it as half empty. Jack Bauer see the glass as a deadly weapon. * When bad things happen to good people, its probably fate. When bad things happen to bad people, it

  9. After 18 months I would say you are doing this wrong. For a left turn I would in loose terrain pull up with the left hand and push down with the right. Pushing down on the outside handle bar will decrease the tendency of the front wheel to plough on. When turning to the right pull up with the right hand and push down with the left. As far as electric bikes go a possible option maybe to have two battery sets. A small cell that powers the bike in the section then lift back onto the bike the main pack to get you between the sections which you take off the bike at the next section. Light bike in the section and all the power you need to do the loop. Still want to ride my 2 stroke Beta!
  10. News Link At a show when I was offered one to try. Holding it in my hand he pushed down on my extended arm but pushed more into me. When I did not have the band he pushed down and outward pulling me off balance. Needless to say I didn't buy one.

    Bring your bottom mounting points for your straps closer to the bike. Another option would be to put the straps around the bottom triple clamp.
  12. We have run a number of trials using the following format. We call it the Flip Card system as at the entry of each section we have a stand with 4 coloured plates to indicate which line the rider is going to undertake. The White line is the easy line, Blue is an average line with Yellow a bit tougher and the Red for the rider who likes it big. When setting sections for this system it is important not to have too large a step between the levels. Normal scoring rules apply so no one has to learn new rules. The score cards carried by the riders are as shown below. The observer just punches two holes, one for the line chosen and one for the riding score. The scorer just adds up the columns and enters the value of each 0,1,2,3,5 in the spreadsheet and all is done. If any one would like a copy just contact me. At the entrance to each section the rider to advise the observer which line they intend to ride with the flip cards at the section start gate. This may be varied from lap to lap and section to section. 1. Riding the White line will incur an additional 3 point penalty. 2. Riding the Blue line will incur an additional 2 point penalty. 3. Riding the Yellow line will incur an additional 1 point penalty. 4. Riding the Red line will incur no additional penalties. 5. Sections not attempted 8 point penalty 6. Riders must present their scorecards to the scorer at the completion of every lap. (Penalty 8 points for each unattempted section).
