Yeah, fairplay. I can't really take the credit either. I just punched it into Google.

This english lad, Paul Nurse, won the Nobel prize a short while back. He was over giving a talk to us there, nice talk, and I had a bit of a chat with him after, anyway...

It turns out, with his his million dollar Nobel prize money he got, he legged it down to the local bike dealer, decided he was going to go out and treat himself a bit, and he bought himself a shiney new Kawasaki GPZ 500

He is well chuffed with it too apparantly. Much better than the 350 Kwak he had before.

Very convoluted way to get your hands on a Kwak though.
