Precisely Roger, Baz IS a nice guy, I remember his threads were funny, and respectful and 'inclusive' to everyone.

I will remove my posts as the original objectionable post has now been removed by GR apparently,

Seems women can say wot they want, be as nasty as they want, yet men cannot defend themselves.

I will repeat wot I put on t'other thread I am NOT rascist I do not belong to BNP. I quite often buddy up at gym with an asian guy and we have some laughs. I have served in HM Forces with guys of different races and they the same as me.

Annie G, and maybe exchange (piston) rings over the sad remains of my old Ariel VB side-valve.
One day she'll make sweet music again but for now my first love, apart from 'er indoors, is Ethel the pushrod OHV Royal Enfield.
And Doris, my beeeeeautiful Ducati Darmah. That will be bevel drive desmo valves of course.
Anybody keeping an eye on the 20/20 cricket final,
Somerset and Hampshire?

Men are entitled to put threads to suit themselves if they will. It would be interesting to see what they would talk about. We have lost Mac from the boards, and others seldom post, they would perhaps help tp keep some interesting subjects going instead of all the games. Men also need somewhere to let off steam like we do.
How many of you have riddena Honda C90 for work? I did for 8yrs.

Well Eddie, if you or any other man on here posted a 'manly' thread I am sure more would add to it..

I do get a bit fed up of people saying there are no good threads on here, no positive threads just 'cat fights'... but never thinking to post one themselves?

So what would you like to see here? if you can think of something please post it :)

If you ladies would look at some of the subjects discussed here it is no wonder us men don't bother. The only reason I look in here at all is in the hope of catching one of the many "cat fights" that occur. You have to admit, when you girls get bitching about one another it can be hilarious at times.
Now if you want to discuss the pros and cons of bevel driven desmodromic valve operation against chain driven OHC's or perhaps good old push rod OHV's (or even side-valves) then I'm your man.

I don't do girly. Never had the opportunity to sail but have stripped a few engines.

Nobody much seems to be interested in mediaeval either.

Thought I'd just express an interest. i rarely post on here as I feel like a dinosaur - still living as I do in the world of collecting pop bottles for the tuppence "on them".

Must say that the whole site is extremely good, whichever part or parts you are hooked on.

Best wishes to all, particularly those over 21.

Happy days

In case you are still around Baz. Lovely to 'see' you on here. All the 'oldies' are much missed by those of us who cling on Lol!!!
Hope all is well with you and yours

oh hello Baz, you're definitely not forgotten around here. :) Hope you are well.

Was it you who was writing the book about your life/tree? or have I confused you with someone else?

You can't go, we need more greyhound threads and we'll put up with the boats and fishing if we have to lol
