Well, whilst I'm honoured that you think that might be the case, I do
try not to be by:

1) Understanding what others are requesting / have written, including
reading between the lines ...

2) Only replying when I have a reasonable idea of what I'm talking
about.

3) Checking up on the facts if I'm not sure.

Now, that doesn't mean I'll always be 100% right but I try my best
most times.

I'm certainly not 'never wrong'.

Now, if you constant post BS and lies and I'm constantly proving them
to be so, along with the proof, then I guess, from that POV it might
appear that I'm 'never wrong'. ;-)

So, the onus is on you to do better, whether it's better research or
better trolling. ;-)

Good man ... and I'll try to cut you a bit of slack, at least (now?)
you might be trying and the only reason I bothered with you in the
first place was I thought you were good at heart and just a bit
misguided. ;-)

We have fond memories of motorcycle-camping around Scotland, mainly
because of the space and the views. The Mrs wasn't too impressed with
the midges (West coast, wrong time of the year) but loved the fact
that she could just ride, often for hours (on her own 750) without
having to worry about other traffic or traffic lights etc.

We came up the A/M74 into Glasgow from The Lake District and past
Gorbals reminded me very much of inner London, but once we were over
the Clyde and away it was nice again.

A couple of nights at Ft William, then another at Ft Augustus, over to
Dornoch for the club rally. A day trip to J.o.G. across to Dunnet
Head and back to Dornoch.

We stayed in Perth overnight on the way back as we headed to Beamish /
Barnard Castle.

Great trip, nice people.

Cheers, T i m

You might feel differntly when faced with a busted window and a
parking charge notice after some toe rag has helped themselves to
your non-registration marked ticket. B-)

**** happens. Can't say I've ever experienced that (yet) in 40 years of
motoring ?

Niether have I but I note your "yet". 40 years ago it wouldn't occur
to anybody to break in and steal a parking ticket. These days some
seem to think they are entitled to do such a thing.

Or smash a £100 window to steal a couple of quid in change or a USB
charging cable.

Which is why I never leave anything at all on display in the car,
wherever it's parked. Scumbags are everywhere.

Friend of mine used to work at the BBC. He'd park in the streets around
White City. He was constantly having his window smashed, even with
nothing on display. He adopted the policy of leaving the car unlocked.
His windows still got smashed.
