Hi,

I've been in the sv650.org fro 3 or 4 months now and Hovis suggested that I intro myself to this subforum whatsit. Well hi. ermm I live in Porthcawl and I got Eileen the sv650 K1(2003!) in Saturn black wiv silver frame. I was hoping to attend the Taffia meeting tonight but my missus said that she's told me a week ago that she was going to the movies wiv 'the girls'. Got a 14 year old autistic son so that means I gotta mind him tonight.

I'm in the Welsh Rideout Club and we've had some great rides(to coin a phrase!). I hope to go on some of youse guys' rides in the spring/summer.

That's it I guess,

John.

Hello John from Porthcawl.

Have you seen the Porlock rideout on 31st March at the top of the page. Would be a fairly long day for you, but quite a few are going from your side of the bridge.

ONE OF MY FAVORATE FILMS "PUMP UP THE VOLUME" STARING CHRISTIAN SLATER
its by leonard cohen

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died

Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long stem rose
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that youve been faithful
Ah give or take a night or two
Everybody knows youve been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows

And everybody knows that its now or never
Everybody knows that its me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when youve done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old black joes still pickin cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows

And everybody knows that the plague is coming
Everybody knows that its moving fast
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
Are just a shining artifact of the past
Everybody knows the scene is dead
But theres gonna be a meter on your bed
That will disclose
What everybody knows

And everybody knows that youre in trouble
Everybody knows what youve been through
From the bloody cross on top of calvary
To the beach of malibu
Everybody knows its coming apart
Take one last look at this sacred heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows

Oh everybody knows, everybody knows
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows

Hello John,

I bought my surfboard off a bloke in Porthcawl. Never surfed there though, for fear of a throat or ear infection. You also have one of the best british MTB Trials riders based down there.

Hi Xan,

I think Rest bay and Sker are relatively clean these days. My eldest son has surfed there since he was adolescent and he has never had either. Or if he did he kept it well hidden.:cyclopsani: :smt026 The:bball: crap gets piped east now I believe :rolleyes:
