I got my parking ticket in the blinkin multi-storey in town.....I only parked there rather than my usual corner because I was planning on leaving it for a while and thought it would be more secure . I parked next to the guards hut and two of them waved and said good afternoon and made small talk with me as I locked up and sorted myself out. 30 seconds after leaving my scoot they ticketed it. I was LIVID!
I love my scoot though, it's 125 cc so I can keep up with the traffic ok, it cost about £2 a week to run, AND I do manage a weekly shop on it (underseat storage/backpack/bag holder combo!) I don't get stuck in traffic and the road tax is a mere £15 a year...... fab!!!
This afternoon tho, I am off to spend a few hours at the MX track on a nice shiny Kwaka  which should burn off some angst!!!
GRRRRRRR!!!!!!

Hope about we all show pictures of our sheds, we could see sheds from around the world . By the way, to all in the Grey room, have a great holiday season and here's hoping 2007 will be a great year.

Message to Mystic Fred: I went to England's official site and got blown away by the snippets of " Garden Shed " which I heard. Must have this cd. I will be looking for it locally.
