danger stock on road

Ah the weather fickle beast that she is

Well its cold that’s for sure and windy as well but the forecast of snow outside my door proved to be a anti-climax, don’t get me wrong I’m not complaining Ive been out on “Motto Beasty” three days running Yahoo

Just came back from a ball freezer down the Peninsular to Portobello about 20km of winding road around the inner harbour out to the Taieri Heads and the open sea

Lotsa fun “Very Cold” fun but fun all the same, its not flat out butt clenching , but more of a sedate roll her in and out of the corners ride as there is usually a bit of tourist traffic so you have to aware that you will meet sight seers cruising along quite slow admiring the scenery

But as usual I managed to pass everything in sight and had a lot of Fun doing it

The “Beasty” and i are becoming more at “one” with each other and have almost had a couple of “ZEN” moments where the bike and rider are in perfect harmony

These long weekends are fun but I’d rather work through and put all my Holidays into one package and take a whole month off than have an extended weekend several times through the year

I get bored quickly so now that I’ve been out on beasty and done the other things that I had to do I’m at home about to play Play station or watch a DVD

My dad has taken a day off of his usual golfing to do a little work down in the cellar, we are insulating the underneath of our house with polystyrene cut to fit between the floor joists, I go down and help him when he needs it but with the cramped working conditions we get in each others way so I’m on coffee and sandwiches duty mostly

He amazes me my Dad, he’s got to be cracking on 77-78 yrs old and he just won’t stop working, He gardens, builds, paints and repairs everything needed around home and is often out helping his mates ease sticking windows and doors or pottering around fixing things at his golf course he’s a regular human dynamo

He’s slowing down somewhat as the years progress but stop is a foreign language to the man

It’s been a good example to me all my life and Dad has always said “if it’s worth doing, then it’s worth doing properly”, this has always put me in good stead with my employers and now that I’m self employed those whom I contract to appreciate a good job well done

Even back in the “bad” old days when I was just a “bikie and an arsehole surrounded by a man” I did my best, to be the best that I could be at my chosen vocation

Dont get me wrong I dont have to “Win”  I understand there is always someone better etc..

I am however “driven” to be successful, not in a bad way, more of an annoying part of my personality, because as a result I have little tolerance of fools and lazy people, and being a “Biker” I say what I think even if it hurts your feelings, and often call people a waste of space and air to their face and can often have personality clashes with people, but as I’ve said before I dont hold grudges, so if I’ve upset you, then “get over it, I have”

But if through circumstance you find yourself at an impasse I will do my best to help, as long as you’ve not reached that impasse through laziness or or idiocy, some times life just throws shit at you and its in those moments you find your true friends and your own inner strengths

My good friends know my personality and accept it as a part of what makes me unique

I’m loved by animals and kids where ever I go so I must have a good heart as kids and animals know these things instinctively, amongst my mates I’m called the cat wisperer haha, all the moggies come and cop a pat and a scratch when ever I’m out visiting

At my mate Kelly’s house, her neighbors cat hears me pull up and comes over to see me for a pat and a scratch it’s hilarious, He’s way cool,, a big chocalate/ black nuetured male and he is so “I’m the king of the neighborhood” when he walks around He also has a cool name “ZUES”

kelly’s cat “Cuda” just cops to the invasion of his turf he too is a cruiser and as long as theres food enough for him he dosent seem to mind other cats calling through for a chat

i’m an easy touch for a pat with dogs as well and have them at me all the time for attention

I guess as it is with most [supposedly] bad men deep inside where it counts we are often just “big softies”

Thats me for now i’m on the playstation saving the world from the invasion of the pacific from the japanese in 1944 “Medal of Honour riseing sun”

another boring day infront of the TV
