And my phone, and friends, and every piece of technology I touch currently.

Jamie can put up with it, if I wanted a pussy I'd be in bed with his mum right now instead of by my lonesome. Jamie's a real man :lol:

Oh yeah, every time I run an application I create a wire-frame of how I think it works before being able to finish whatever I was doing :wink:

I just think I've done something to piss off whatever deity may or may not exist, or I have really bad Karma from some of my actions over the past few months when I've been in really foul moods :think:

wombles knows, eh?

Today I ripped my calipers to pieces and gave the pistons a good clean, then remembered why I hate doing work on the brakes. What a pain to bleed up! Also found my nice shiny headlight bulb had burnt out so need to get a new one tomorrow.

New rear tyre, Michelin PR2 to replace the PR3. It's cheaper and I couldn't tell the difference wet or dry so why bother

Looks like the back had burnt out. Tried the hold bulb and everything worked fine. Back of the new one didn't look cleaver. Not sure how its done it but hey.

Pistons were in reasonable condition. The only bout of pitting was right at the top against the pad so not to bothered as that bit doesn't go near the seals anyway. Feel better. Back still has a bit of travel though :think:
