Also a T-Shirt from an American Ducati group who have used my signature so it is almost personalised.

I hope everyone was as pleased with their presents as I am.

Sue had already bought me a DP C/F belly pan which was fitted at the last service

I got pulled by the sussex police for the crime of having the wrong font on the number plate. £30 fixed penalty ticket, but he did wish me a merry xmas and let me off the loud exhausts.
Be warned the sussex police are out to get you!!!

No 1 daughter gave me a colour photo printer to go with the digital camera she gave me for my birthday. Unfortunately, after trying really hard to get to grips with the camera over Christmas, we are going out to change it this morning for a more 'user friendly' (read 'not so bl00dy technical).

:bouncy::bouncy:

No 2 daughter gave me a book intended to incite political insurrection - and lots of big hugs, so that was fab!.

Nothing for my bike though. Was hoping for at least one 'I promise to clean your bike' voucher.

I got a blocked drain, but Father Fordie brought me his rods, so I'm clear again...flush with success you could say:lol:

Also got a nice jumper off me girls and a rugby game for the Playstation, plus loads of choco which I'm trying my best to eat as quickly as possible without being sick:frog:

Monty, so on top of tyre compounds, warmers, fuel levels, temp, suspension and burning clutches, we now have to check humidity;) Will it tell us if it's raining outside:P Can it predict if one side of the track is wet whilst all we can see is it's dry or vice versa? Will it remind us to check the pressure after we've changed the tyres:( :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

I'd be careful with the fridge, Keefy, Ducati electrics can barely keep their own batteries charged!:lol:

"So, did you get that weather station in the hope it's going to help you with tyre choice?"-no Felix, the weather station is to help me jet the thing right to maximise the performance. Me and JohnnyB can muck up the tyre choice all be ourselves, we don't NEED any technology to do that................:lol:
