  1. Today was one of those days where the Gods were shining down on me.After a typically painful start to the day I decided that as the sun was shining I was going to make the best of it.:upyeah:
    I had just downed a nice cocktail of meds when Mrs Mervyn,with a typical I know you smirk on her lovely face,handed me the phone.It was Peter from Pro twins Ducati-my new Scrambler had arrived.
    So,I had a very careful ride over the dealership to do the paperwork,order a few goodies and pay for it.I did manage not to get sucked in too much to the 'Land of Joy' catalogue,and only ordered a few bits and pieces.:Angelic: My ride home on the SF was a little more confident and spirited:)
    Mrs Mervyn was very keen to hear from me about the Scrambler and what it actually did.I eventually got her interested in Cafe Racers,pocket rockets,Sports bikes and others.Well,to tell the truth,after a couple of minutes she said she was bored, and went off to do some painting.
    I shall now practise being 'Hip':upyeah:Then I can really fit into @the Land of Joy':)

  3. I will practise being hip,probably in the garage ,out of sight.I could grow a beard,let my hair grow,and adopt a youthful and can do sort of persona:DAlternatively I could just enjoy my new bike when it arrives and have a few more rides.
    I will post up suitable photos when I get it.I am very much looking forward to my new wheels.:upyeah:
