always messing with bike (swopping over clutches etc)
since having operation on foot in april and in plaster for nearly 5 months i put on nearly 3 stone in weight (not proud)

good news is
being so heavy i have absolutely no need for a slipper clutch..
been out several times with standard clutch fitted and cannot lock up the rear wheel (bike has to much momentum going forward with my fat dish on it)- no need for slipper..

not sure whether the short term financial benefits are worth the long term health problems associated with obesity !!

to that end i have started a vigorous fitness drive (now i can walk)....................

You were so fat that you can only just walk?

or, now you can walk, you're getting fit?

age you might have seen me at paignton bike night (i know jay and a few others did)
riding before i could walk !!!!!!!!!!!

i remember jay p*****g himself laughing as i approached bike on cruches, mate helping to dismantle and put in back pack as i "crawled " onto bike...

besides its not might fault that everyone kept bringing me chocolate -- it would be rude not to eat it !!!

mostly well wishers with gifts - feeling sorry for me..

being "grounded" affected my usual spending ability.
apart from finding comfort on e bay i did not spend much money..

(nearly killed myself a couple of times trying to answer the door for the post man before he gave up)

It's not fair, I'm fit but if I miss one meal I lose half a stone. I would love to be able to put weight on.
