I missed that bit!
loved the bit with the running in riders leaving the factory
EDIT It's probably me but i realy miss the days when someone would invent something in a shed you would buy it then turn it into what you wanted in your shed. [ i know we all do different things to our bikes but there's very few people actually making things from scratch we tend to fit things designed by computer made by robots]
Today it seems to be all computers and robots everything made for the avarage person! we are told what we want! If you want something different people think your round the twist
How i long to have the days back when we as a country would make and mend things now it's chuck it in the bin and buy a new one
I'm almost going into a rant time to stop Dai

How can you a cheff say that?
I did like the food in marakesh[spelin] though we were staying in the souks[spelin again] and only ate local food tagine's, sheep heads, chickens, olives,
It was great to see the locals fixing the mopeds and small bikes on the pavement [big hammer adjustable spanner screwdriver and very little else] i loved it there one of the lads with me said "it's like a whole city full of Dai's"
In the new part of the city it was all burger king mcdonalds pizza hut etc. you could have been in any city in the world
