Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Coming up behind a marked police car that was already doing 80+ and having them indicate left and pull over to let me pass....... Can't believe I left it this long to visit the Isle of Man :p

Rain Rain Rain.... (sorry Timwilky!)
Timing is everything! Spent the day jet washing off the house (roughcast render) in preparation for painting. Being fully kitted up in one piece waterproofs...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
We've got an old car like that. A little while ago an aunt upgraded and the garage offered her peanuts for her old car, a rather beaten up Peugeot 206 Estate, mainly because the airbag light was on...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
That's a bit of a result, no wonder you're smiling. Out of interest do you know if the limit is four bikes on a single policy, or can they cover more?

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
I think there is a certain satisfaction at doing it in your own car, but I do think it's wise to get a few lessons with a professional even if just to learn what is expected on test.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Worth checking to see if she can still build a NCB as a named driver on your existing policy, I've heard some companies will do that, especially if you have been with them a while and they are likely...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Back on topic. My smile of the day is that whilst writing the above I remembered the look on my sons face after I had let him loose on my GSXR track bike for the first time...... Priceless!

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
We gave my daughter my wife's 1.9 Fabia diesel when she was 17 and insured it in her name so she started a NCD straight away. We got her a couple of lessons early on with a school just so she had an...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Yeah, we live in the sticks so getting them both independently mobile was a real priority. It's an expensive pain at the time, but well worth the agro in the long run.
Our next target is to get...

We did OK with Admiral. Both our kids had cars whilst they were still on L plates and we put them on one of their multi-car policies. When they then passed their tests they obviously then had to...

Just got home after two hours riding in good company on clean, dry and twisty roads, and yes it was in the UK! We even managed to dodge the one shower that came through (cup of tea in the local...
