Maybe the emphasis was on the "short" rather than the calorific. As I don't know you, and therefore you could be at or above the average height for a women, this might not be the case. Just a thought!

PS I consumed a large tin of M&S shortbread over the festive break but I would consider myself above average height. Do I win a prize?

[guest24]

Boyd - yes you win a prize.

Alice - welcome aboard the club, if you haven't already been felicitated! I would suspect the name calling person is just jealous of you and is hurting because you can indulge in yummy biccies and they cannot. So, make a cuppa, look out your window at your landrover whilst you polish your petrol-burning camping stoves and wonder who your favourite weather-man is on TV.

Good job too, they'd need to get some sort of electronic tumbleweed set up to roll across the forum if we started with your actual air cooled, over 125cc, single cylinder motorcycle.

I've stopped worry about why people buy things as presents. I think we've all got so much stuff its impossible to work out what will actually be good, so, wanting to get them something you just have to plonk for something thats a bit of a treat. I'm guessing the shortbread sender just ran out of ideas. This year I'm the proud recipient of a subscription to RIDE magazine, which is a definate step up from the Harley mug of 4-5 years back. We should run a book on how long it is before this has me back in the rants section thought, 4 way 600 supersports test in Barcelona article anyone  .

So, is the offending shortbread going spare?

I didn't get a single present to unwrap this year - although my inlaws chipped in for a Halfords tool chest combo - very nice indeed.

With reference to bicuits and hypocrites as Winston Churchill would say sod em all.

I got the Good Old Fashioned "Subtel Hint " as a prezzie this year.
Brother Sprogs bought me a new Bicycle Computer set up to remind me that in 2010 I have cycled less than 300 miles when, as recent as 2007, I was cycling an average of 7000 miles a year!
I have, as a result of said change in exercise, put over 100lbs weight on so the "Subtle Hint" is about as obvious as a Fart in a Smart Car!

Credentials,   Suzuki GN 400, MZ ETZ 300, Yamaha RS 125. Hope that qualifies ??

[guest40]

Hey Alice, I'll show you mine, if you show me yours , and as someone mentioned earlier, any shortbreads left for us?


Oh yeah, welcome to the nuthouse.

[el vencejo]

Hi Alice, just remember that most of us are here because one cylinder and two wheels is all our brains can handle.

The intellectuals have 3 wheels or an extra cylinder 

[guest40]

The intellectuals have 3 wheels  

Are you infering Sir, that GC is an intellectual?
