Can't say as I have, bud ... however, I still have that motor from the Harley FLH ... put that sucker and winter tires on the chair, and you could make it across the Kicking Horse Pass.;):D

Hey, you never know until you try. I'll even send you my favorite biker t-shirt. It has on it a very tasteful winged skull, and the logo: "Never Ride Faster Than Your Guardian Angel Can Fly." Good Catholic stuff.:D

Feeling really happy today -can't stop smiling! First beautiful day since returning to Italy from UK :hothothot- been for a ride along the canal and through the Elm wood. Floor carpeted with yellow and bright in the sunlight filtering through the trees - my inner child made me stop and have a kick around in the leaves -great fun and no-one was watching.:D I knew there'd been storms while I was away and at one point a birch tree had been up-rooted and fallen right across the path and the canal. Hoisted bike over and rode home...

Why am I so happy -because when I got back I found my mobile phone in the basket of my bike which I lost about 3 weeks ago! Not been a bad day so far - won 30 euros on a scratch card this morning and bought a new laptop too!:)

I can't figure out whether she lost her cell phone, or her bike:confused::D

Had a flurry of snow yesterday ... but it looks like we will bounce back to double digits for the next few days.:hothothot

I didn't think you could get a laptop for 30 euros ... lap dancer maybe;):D

Dear both -John and Eric -won 30 euros, bought a new laptop for a hell of a lot more....lost mobile phone just before going over to Accy and found it today by chance after nearly 3 weeks...left it in the basket of my bike the day before travelling to UK.

Was feeling very happy -not so much now 'cos of posts about Europe on here -make me feel isolated somehow....:( and very sad....That's life.:)

Aw, hon ... cheer up:):):) Don't worry, there's no such thing as Europe. It's just a geographical expression that some Frankensteinian politicians are trying to make into a social, political, and economic entity ... otherwise, it don't matter;)

How wise - I suppose it's like Canada being lumped together with the USA as North America.... you wouldn't really want that either!;)
How's the weather over there Eric -has the cold arrived yet - still mild here so far...

In fact the sun is shining on Italy today - it's all the hundreds of others who also need to be ousted that cause me to worry. Italy has always had a so-called unstable government but historically - even if they don't last long in office, effectively it's always the same lot changing position, party name and logo at every election :rolleyes:
Oh, I'm not an Italian citizen by the way and have no right to vote here -wouldn't want to have any part...

Much like my sister in law who lived in Oz for more than 50 years without becoming a citizen(though I am pretty sure she could vote ...and was legally required to do so) you are, because you choose not to become naturalized, not a european then......you prefer to remain British...but with an Italian residency.
My sister, on the other hand is a dual citizen...she sees herself as Australian but with British roots...has embraced every aspect of Australian life.
The Aussies still see her as a 'pommie'.
Which all goes to show that nationality is more about how you see yourself, than where you actually live.
