I've not been on the board much over the last couple of years but had a wee look tonight to see what the word is. Had a look at my profile and it turns out that I stopped lurking and became a proper foccer 8 years ago to the day

My life has changed so much for the better over the years and I'm proud to say a whole stack of you foccers played a significant part in shaping it, and celebrating in it.

Fantastic and fond memories of so many brilliant people.

So here's to the foc-u, the foccers and the foccing good times.

Gawd bless yurs all!

Parp!

You can't turn the corner without tripping over a drunken, sentimental Scotlandshirer these days

Aye fantastic memories of some cracking foccers. Life moves on and I no longer have a bike atm. But was chatting to some Kawasaki people the other day in the pub, thought they were just the national team so naturally I told them I'm a yam girl and not convinced by green bikes. Turns out they were a WSB team. Even still that doesn´t excuse them for riding green bikes. Turns out my life is even more surrounded by bikes now, and my one regret isnot doing a track day before having kids.

Jees I never had to juggle playmobile astronauts when I `posted on here before, or wipe up snot.

I still drop in from time to time, and I've some good memories of Forest Frolics and Festive Frolics - and a bit of KTM tossing when I showed up on my orange beast (which I've still got and has now passed 34k miles across dozens of countries and two continents.

I do miss my Y2K Fazer, but it's still around and being used daily.

theboydougie · « **Reply #5 on:** 25 January 2013, 03:33:53 pm »

Yup, still got my thou...although nearly implanted it inti a yaris the other day.

Desperate to get my hands on a wee old fzs6000 so that i can rip it to bits and chop bits off it; powder coat, re-bling

Amusing to see sio many old guard faces turn up at once.

And T~pot.....for once i wasn't drunk.

Gringo and Les brought everyone back. Which is nice as we keep in touch with a few people we´re freinds with on fb, and then other people who we`re not friends with but have their wall set to global even if they are talking about wanking at work. Yeah that was nice to see in the stalker feed.

About the same time I turned up at Kielder Forest, to meet 2 foccers for a ride out. I just met a hung over Scotsman with a load of midge bites! A fun ride up there. Only had the bike a few months by then!
