Backfiring from the chair:

So Andrew turned a whole year older! Saturday saw a birthday jol at Andrew and Erica’s

and was an afternoon spent with friends and likeminded individuals in a relaxing

environment out on their plot. I believe some of the attendees spent the night! Hope you

had a blast Andrew and thanks for the invite. I had to leave early though as I had planned

a new venue for the Sunday run and did not want to stand the chance of not showing.

I made it on Sunday morning, early, but with a slight hangover!

Those that could not make the ride due to ill health, we wish you a speedy recovery and

hope to see you riding soon!

The planned ride for Sunday was 33 High Road, a landmark restaurant in Modderfontein

and the perfect spot from which to view the classic cars as they drove by on their way to

the Piston Ring Clubs, Cars In The Park. Our table was set up under the large old oak tree

and we had the best viewing spot from here. The food was fantastic and reasonably priced,

but the coffee came in at a whopping R15, 00 per cup and it was not bottomless!

After breakfast some of us moved on to the Cars In Park, lots of bargains to be found

here and plenty stunning cars, and bikes…………..and, oh well. Lots of motorhead stuffs!

I will not be at Bimbo’s on Sunday as I will be attending the Ulysses Welkom 10th birthday

bash this weekend. The following weekend I will be in Welkom again for the Chapter

representative’s bi - annual meeting. The runs for these two Sundays will be decided at

Bimbo’s.

Ride safe,

Wells.

Once upon a time……

A frog biker zap’s up to the kerb, parks his KTM 690 Enduro, goes into a Bank and hops

towards an attractive female teller.

He can see from her nameplate that her name is Miss Patricia Whack. Hopping up to her

window he croaks:

"Hey miss Whack, I'd like to get a R10 000 loan to take an off-road biking holiday to the

Okavango swamp next week. My father will repay the loan after his next music gig!”

Astounded, Patty looks down at the frog in disbelief and asks him who he is? The frog says

his name is Kermit Jagger and his dad is Mick Jagger, and that everything is cool cos he

knows the bank manager who authorized the loan on his bike a couple of months ago. Patty

Now this is what I call growing old disgracefully!

gapes at him and then stammers that he will need to secure the loan with some physical

collateral.

The frog says, "Sure Miss Whack, I have this," and digging into his enduro-jacket pocket,

he produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, in luminous pink, smooth and

perfectly formed.

Very confused now, Patty flusters that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and

quickly disappears into a back office.

She finds the manager and says, "Sir! There's a biker frog calling himself Kermit Jagger

out there that claims to know you and wants to borrow R10 000 and he wants to use this as

collateral!" She holds up the tiny pink elephant and exclaims! "I mean sir, what in the

world is this?"

(Hold-on I think you're going to like this! It’s a Doosie, a masterpiece!)

The bank manager looks back at her and casually says.....

"It's a knick-knack Patty Whack, give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone."

(You're singing it, aren't you? Yeah, I know you are........!!)

Cheers!

MENOPAUSE / PMS JEWELLERY

My husband, most unhappy with my bad temper, bought me a mood ring

the other day so he is able to determine my frame of mind, he says.

Well here’s the thing…! He’s discovered that when I'm in a good mood,

the ring stone turns green. When I'm in a bad mood, it leaves a big

f#cking' red mark on his forehead. Maybe next time he'll buy me a

diamond!
