I completely agree with the comments about the anti-bike slant. Just watched this with Hubby and whilst he is not a biker he was yelling at the screen when all the stupid BBC-esqe-think-of-the-children rubbish was being spouted. The incredulous tone the presenter used when talking about you being a midwife and a biker was immensely patronising, self-righteous and utterly condescending and just made me want to lamp him one

I can understand to an extent though why the paramedic would have a biased view from what they see in their job but the whole thing just came across as the usual BBC anti-fun brigade hand wringing. Well sod 'em!

Good on you for getting back on, and BTW you looked fabulous, very photogenic, even when you were wrapped up in the stretcher!

Great stuff Mel, it's just a shame they didn't have the camera crew along to watch you on the Dukes Pass

You have to admit i look damn good!

I sure know how to wear a beanie well

To be honest, Bear will pretty much feel up anyone at any time - sometimes he will even ask permission 1st, but thats pretty rare.....
