Moments Like These

Miss 3.5 years at our house decided to open the courier pack because she "loved it" and "needed it".

The dog was very thin. Think xylophone covered with skin and fur.

Dan's tale of using his wet Double Happys to chill the end-of-ride be caused me to recall similar antics.

The Double Happys made me double happy when I placed a can of beer into each of their wet pockets.

We're hovering around - poking, prodding and offering unhelpful advice when the clouds parted (literally) and a blond apparition approached the hut.

Now when I ride down the street kids laugh at me because I look like a Splice. Fat people try to lick me on hot days.

Whilst when originally purchased, I subscribed to all the splatter about not wearing out and lasting for ages, I didn't take it too literally.

When I txt my wife "I love you" or "you're beautiful" she replies, "did you mean to send that to me or matt?"

But here's the catch – I now had just a single top to get me through the trip.

Best of all is the reflective Ground Effect label that glows – making its presence known in the black hole that masquerades as the bottom of my handbag.

I was able to breathe a little more life into one of the batteries by rubbing it up and down quickly on my Doctor Smock's fleece collar.

I have to confess - those failures are all my fault. In the early days I bought both the Windshield and the Zest Tee.
