h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

They certainly were

A guy near where I used to live had one of those...complete with leather strips hanging from the saddle
A magnificent machine it was too. They don`t build `em like that anymore..
My "big black machine" was a Vincent, I could weep just thinking about it....

Omigawd!
Here we go down nostalgia road.





Hang on while I get me coat.
I remember those good old British singles with a power stroke that occured every second lampost.
I never had an exotic like the Vincent, mainly Ajays and Matchless.
The most fun was a 500 Matchless G80, fastest was the BSA Lightning and most stylish, the Norton Commando Roadster.
The Lightning had a vibration that kicked in at somewhere from 90 upwards, for some reason it was extremely popular with the girls.
Can't think why.

Hmmmm...sounds a bit like the Velocette Venom I had.

That was orgasmic...or so I was told..but then, I never got to sit on the pillion..

Not much of a hideaway, now is it,Lucher!



Just joking with ya!

It never was really......I`m not difficult to find, most of the time.

Except for when he's hiding out... in a "lurking" sort of way...

Big, warm, snuggly for Lurcher...

And where is Michele when you think you`ve "got`er"????
18 mins ago she posted, and now she`s gorn

..... BOO!....

*Jumps a foot in the air with shock*

Ullo Michele , the eyes are there, but are you?

Yup, I'm here *cough, cough, hack, wheeze, cough*

And I don't feel good I've got bronchitis *cough, cough* and a sinus infection. And it's cooooooooolldd here!

Otherwise *cough, wheeze, cough* I'd give you a big , but *cough, cough* I don't want you to catch anything...

Aw, sorry about that luv...I know the feeling

Here`s a few "get well soon" s to be going on with!

Well I feel much better! *cough, cough* Seems bronchitis takes a long time to go away! And how are you my dear Lurcher? Hope all is well in your part of the world. President Bush is supposed to be addressing the nation tomorrow evening (Tuesday). I'm not looking forward to that telecast...

*Finds his way back to his retreat, after forgetting where it was..*

Well, I guess the bronchitis must be better by now Michelle
Bush will have stunned the nation with his eloquence,and his poodle, Blair, will have done his "nodding wisely" routine.
We can all be sure we are in safe hands

If you say so...

I`ll be bowing out for a while, things have got a bit fraught. There aren`t a lot of people who I give a damn about, but those I do know who they are, and will maybe read this.
Thanks for the interaction..I`ll be lurking around, and thinking about you.
Honest.

Hello there dear!

Just thought I would drop by with these lovely barbequed pork ribs, and thought that maybe we could share them and open a couple of the new bottles of McLurchers?

Miss you...

`Ullo luv, almost back in harness again
Hope you are in the pink..(but the blue or yellow ones look just as nice)!!

Swamped today luv, but will have more time to post tomorrow...

HEY!!!!

IT'S YOUR TURN!!!

I know..I know..it`s just that, well, you know how things...I mean to say, sort of, well , get put off...and with the best of intentions..erm...

Ullo luv..
