Default Happy National Robo-leg Day

A year ago today I fractured my hip while taking part in the dangerous sport of pedestrianism... To commemorate the occasion, I'm declaring today a national holiday, Robo-Leg Day. I celebrated it by sitting around all day doing nothing, much as I did last year in casualty- I'm sure this will soon catch on nationally, if not worldwide.

Happy National Robo-Leg Day!

Whey hey! Already a year? I remember the phone call I got from you and the first thing I said was 'Have you crashed again?' Such a poor judge of character... Glad you have recovered enough to shake your thang on the dance floor.

Can I join the Robo-leg clan? I can provide the titanium staples from my knee as proof if I can just remember where they are...

Do they make scottoilers for robo-legs?
Surely they need lubing up so they don't squeak.

I will celebrate by eating some tesco eclairs (allthough i don't really like them) and read this forum instead of working!

Good call - just been out the office cos you just reminded me that the last thing I did was put mine on Prime cos I filled it up - last week. It is of course now empty damn!

Also decided to fix one of my front indicators where the backing plate that holds it onto the fairing has come undone. While on the street outside office, in work clothes... It is a fairing off job which is not a problem but I reached the point where I was starting to get greasy and not getting anywhere. So the indicator still isn't fixed and I am now greasy, the soap in the toilet doesn't help much and am trying to type and hide my hands from my colleagues...



Back to the point Northy, do you have a logo and a secret handshake?
