We were watching a program about organ donors and specifically heart transplants the other week. I was suddenly struck by how amazing it is that we have the ability to remove the very core of a human, the one organ that keeps everything going, and replace it with one out of another that has died to keep them alive.

The fact that you can transplant an organ is amazing enough, but to revive a (basically) dead person is incredible.

Funny old world, innit!

I pitty the bloke who's wandering around with Dave's organs. Bet he's developed a passion for wheelies and wonders why he keeps getting speeding tickets!

I could've sworn I saw a bloke in the paddock last week, up to his armpits in oil, taking a four-sizes-too-big drill to the side of a perfectly reasonable looking bike, surrounded by bits of plate alloy and a selection of old files with a hint of mechanical madness in his eye...... did make me wonder if he'd been for an op recently!

The guy ( Pete Field ) in the heart donor program lives opposite me, nice guy and ex. biker.

I wonder if he's suddenly fallen in love with Dukes, and can't hold his drink whilst on flu medication!

Or whether he's taken to crashing more than the average angel and always finding something/someone else to blame!!

That just reminded me of something cute. When Dave's godson, George - aka TMG (Top Man George) was told about his uncle he looked a bit perplexed for a few seconds. But when he figured it all out he said 'Wow. He's going to make a cool angel.' Aint kids sweet ..... when they're someone elses.

Kids can have such a wonderful outlook on life, beats an adult one anyday!

Everyone can speak Jamaican easily:

Just say 'beer can' outloud without it sounding like Jamaican.

Go on you can't do it....
