Thanks lads

It be fine.
9 years together and only just getting married. I think we are pretty much settled in to who we are. I hope!!

Falling a sleep is not good mate.

I've done it a couple of times but I've learnt and I don't stay away for 24 hours and then try and do a 10 hour shift field engineer shift.
I fell asleep once and woke up in a field going side ways.
That was the point I decided to sort out my sleeping patterns and make sure I'm safe to drive. If not, I pull over for 20mins and either walk around, drink, eat or kip.

Drive safe dude.

The man v's woman is entirely true, good luck Scott and congrats, i'm sure you will be fine, like you I lived with my missus for 10 years before getting married.

Think it makes more sense that way, no point spending all that money at the start only to find out you want to take her sea fishing and use her as bait.

Need a bike for London.
Sod driving.

London use to be part of my patch when I was service engineer and I refused to drive in.
I'd deliver parts to the bike engineers and that's it.
Hated it.

Thanks all. It will be fine I'm sure.
Just reading over my speech.
I hate speeches.

Have a good meet tomorrow all and drive safe.

Default Missing Wife

Some may have seen this but it did make me laugh:

A distraught husband phones the police to report that his wife is missing:

Husband: I lost my wife, she went shopping this morning & still has not reached home yet.
Inspector: What is her height?
Husband: Not sure - less than me?
Inspector: Build?
Husband: Not slim, can be healthy.
Inspector: Colour of eyes?
Husband: Never noticed.
Inspector: Colour of hair ?
Husband: Changes according to the season.
Inspector: What was she wearing?
Husband: jeans or maybe a dress..... I don't remember exactly.
Inspector: Was she going in a car???
Husband: yes.
Inspector: can you tell me the number, name & colour of the car ? . . . . . ..
Husband: Black Audi S8 D2 model with 4.2 litre V8 engine generating 360 horse power with an five-speed tiptronic automatic transmission with manual mode. Minor scratching and gravel rash on the bonnet and bumper. Its been fitted with LED sidelights and a bunch of extras such as rear blind, alcantara roof lining, full leather pack and is fitted with 19 inch diamond cut final edition 9 spoke alloy wheels which have just been re-furbed..... and then the husband started crying...

Inspector: Don't worry sir, we will find your car...
