    The mrs finally doing her CBT

    Well after months of talking about it the mrs is doing her CBT today

    so this will either open up a whole new world or put her off forever

    hope it's the former

    all things being well gonna look at a 2004 model cg125 on saturday to get her away on two wheels.

    but she has to get through the events of today yet

    I have every confidence in her because she drives the car fine but watch this space.

    True. A classic of our time.

    In fact, if that's shopping, I wish my wife would drag me to the shops.

    Found myself watching Long Way Down again and i remembered Russ Malkin talking to Ewan and they were messing about saying that kind of stuff and Russ also added "and if there are any problems we will naturally come across you".

    Just made me laugh

    But yes i do love the carry on films, there hilarious...

    The original Carry on films were the best, once the old crew died they lost the humour.

    Re: The mrs finally doing her CBT

    well just to update you all on mrs knievel's progress.

    she got to the cbt training school eagerly and early(a tad too early as the gates were still locked)

    then the lads turned up and promptly declared they'd forgotten the keys to the steel storage container the bikes were in.

    they finally get in there by 12

    anyway she gets thru all the classroom stuff no bother

    but by the time she gets on a bike theres not enough time left so they tell her the road riding part and a couple of yard manouvres will have to wait for another day(saturday) for which she had to change saturdays shift

    but on the upside, i think she enjoyed it and said she took to the bits she was worried about, a lot easier than she was expecting and cant wait to get back on it on saturday which means i'll have to go down for that cg by meself

    so craig if you read this mate,and you dont go to cornwall on saturday,i'd appreciate a pillion to driffield and i'll ride this cg back for her if it's in good health.

    and if i get off it with a bad back i'll know not to take her too far on it
