holding onto a poo until you get into the office then having a banging poo and getting paid for it (even if you have to crab on the way out of the house and into the office).

Going to Malton to see family and riding up Rosedale Chimney Bank

21 hours of driving to get to and around Scotland and riding at three different places on three different days two of which Hannah Barnes is at and then pulling a big goofy smile at her only to get one back

waking up with your tent taped into the scottish six day trail course on the first day in fort william.

When I was an apprentice car mechanic I used to have a cup of coffee, a chocolate muffin, followed by a fag mid morning.

I used to love that little break.

When I was young and used to go fishing all the time. I loved when my float would wobble slightly, and then bob up and down a little, and eventually sail away.

When ever that happened I would get so excited, whispering "go on, go on..." to myself.

I used to dream about it.

I still get excited when that happens.

Let me think:

Pears soap (the original, not the modern nonsense)
Clear, still mornings on the bike - slow enough to hear nothing
Being fit (feels like a long time ago)
Being thin (longer ago than fitness)
Coming home to a nice tidy house when no-one else is there
Baby Nord hugging me and patting me on the back as she does
Mrs North - everything about her. Especially boobies.
Camille Yarbrough singing Take Yo' Praise:

lol dont be silly emsz.... this is STW, you can't have sex with a bike or the internet, especially if you're old and tubby... you might hurt your knees!

those who arent single IT geeks who spend their time away from work "polishing their cranks" or wearing lycra, are married and they dont know what sex is either.

He's right you know. Although one tends to laugh 'with' Binners, and 'at' Hora.
