Mmmyes, Stoner versus Lorenzo this year. I don't think Rossi will be up there this season, certainly not the first couple of races. I'm also interested to see how Ben Spies is going to fare with full factory support, maybe he'll be an outsider for a couple of victories.

I wish the 125 and Moto2 races would be broadcast as well (on a channel I can receive)...


I get them all! Mwahahahahaha. Moto2 is where it's at these days. It's insanely competitive and brilliant fun to watch. I doubt Rossi will be in for much on the Ducati either. It'll take ages to get as used to it as he'll need to to be contending. I don't think Spies will even be an outsider this year. He was hugely impressive last year and I expect him to be up there with the other "alien" riders for the whole season.

Curse you. Maybe I can download the races afterwards, I know that was possible for the MotoGP races last year when I missed a few on the BBC.

Other random thought, I need to start thinking about a summer holiday.

OH NOES. Not the BBC! Worst coverage in the world... I'm so glad Dorna gave Eurosport back the coverage. It just is not the same without Moody and Ryder in the commentary box, plus Eurosport cover all the practice and qualifying and the races and also give extended highlights in case you miss it really regularly. Ahhhh the more I talk about it the more I can't wait. :D

I also can't wait for summer holidays.. Terrifying to think I'm finished college in two and a half weeks... Year flew by. Massively looking forward to both lazy summer here at home and our two weeks in the mountains in the Algarve. Private villa, private pool, hawt tub, WIN. :mrgreen:

Well, the Dutch commentary used to suck balls (until they stopped broadcasting it altogether) and the races were interrupted by commercials, so the BBC is definitely better with that in mind. Too bad they sacked Suzi Whatsherface though. ;)

Are you sure Eurosport is broadcasting it again this season? I can receive that channel just fine, I just assumed they wouldn't regain the coverage rights again after just one year.

Ah yes... She was probably their only saving grace. If Eurosport had someone similar trackside they'd probably conquer the world market overnight. :lol:

I think a lot of it airs on Eurosport2. And I'm not sure what the story is when it's not British Eurosport... There's some divisions there, I think. I didn't think there was ever any doubt they'd get it back. The volume of complaints Dorna received when they took away the Eurosport coverage was mental. Either way, I'll certainly have it. :mrgreen:

I got an anxiety attack at a hippie-meeting last weekend when a girl was petting me.

Actually, I think getting petted in public would freak me out, too.

I just found the old letter me and Prex sent to Dev and Tracy for the Nice as A Really Nice Thing scrapbook on my external hard drive! :lol: Seems an absolute age ago. I suppose 2006 is an age ago at this rate! Speshully on here; only a few of the people involved are still floating around these days...

And the photos are still around and everything! I look about 7 years old in that photo.. :lol:

Hey Lars, did Monga ever get that thong of yours? :P

Depends on who, how, and where. If a hippie chick was petting me, that's fine. However, if she started talking crazy shit about aligning my sacrum with Gaia, or chanting some strange prayer about crystals, then I might get a little nervous. Even more so if she was over 30 years older.

Sorry, I'm bored.

She was two years younger than me, and she just petted my head. She didn't tell me anything about any auras or anything. I think the anxiety was about how I don't really have such friends and felt so alone even in that situation.

First of all why the christ would you let a girl pet your head in a group of people, particularly a girl that much younger than you? That would just look totally wrong altogether... And why, when you had let her pet your head and were feeling anxious, did you not just tell her to stop..?

I'm not trying to be patronising or anything but like.. I just don't get why you'd let yourself into a position where you THAT uncomfortable. Presumably the situation only got more uncomfortable after the anxiety attack to boot. You could so easily have used the age thing to get out of it as well if you needed a way out as well.

Eating food on a plate is a new adventure each time. Each time theres sauce crawling under the stake or rise you will have to dig up. Or theres to much pasta so that you'll have to forde it into your stomach.
I'm now sitting with a piece of chicken that i want to have some sweetchili sauce to. Theres some sweetchili sauce left under the rise i think so will have to make a tunel to get it.
No really think about it!..

..
no?

Similar situation last night I had!
I made two baked salmon fillets, and buried them under a (big) serving of linguini with spicy pepper sauce. I thought it would never end; every bite I took somehow seemed to respawn on my plate, especially the fish. By the time my plate was clean, I reminded myself that one fillet was enough. Or have three fillets, no pasta.
Hmm...

Wow...I totally forgot we did this! 2006 is a long time ago. I'm so old! And you're so young! Wish I had more time to do things like this still.

I didnt get that thong. I've had to sniff my own in the meantime. Very dissapointing.
