The 'look at what I did today' thread

I assume he has failed the course and will now be back in court getting a ban or some points for whatever he'd done before that landed him on the course?

Which car were you in?

Hopefully mot the lude?

Yes, the lude.

And I had the little lad in the car too, who loved the adventure of it all.

Quite easily fixable though, bumper repair, new front wing and repaint of the front wheel. He's offered to stump up the repair costs up front after I get a quote too.

Nice going.

man that sucks !! he obviously needed that course, as a biker myself of some 30+ years you know never to over take on blind bends or over hump backed hills/bridges, that's just suicidal, from what you say it sounds like it was a bike safe lesson with a class 1 Police motorcylist, so he'll have a got a good telling off and rightfully so.

Glad the Ludes not to badly damaged, and he was man enough to admit it was his fault

Not today, but at the weekend - stag weekend in the hills. Cracking place!

And we all know what happens in the hills...

What sort of stag weekends have you been on, we just drank lots of cider, beer, and wine - and then cooked a metric ton of meat based food products on a massive BBQ

And made a bloke wear ladies clothes, but apparently that's traditional? I dunno ...
