> That sounds interesting — is it still there?Still there in the sense that nothing is ever deleted from the Internet. I’ll be damned if I can remember what I called the thing! And its probably nowhere near as extreme as I remember.
|
||
|
||
|
||
> I may not be able to draw my state pension abroad any moreAye, who can say what the laws will look like soon. Other than a *bloody mess*.
|

Aside — for some reason unbeknownst to me I’d assumed you were American. In hindsight the correct spelling of certain words should have been a dead giveaway!
|

|

> if anything even more recklessly than I rode my bike, now I think about it!I expect to be the same when I eventually resign myself to the fact cars are useful to have — I reckon its because of the sudden addition of all the secondary safety — you can take more risks and be in less danger compared to on a motorcycle.
|

|

|
||
> And eyeing the road for the *next* place you want to be.Well of course, you must always look to where you want to go ;) A useful philosophy when applied to life, I’ve found…
|
||
|
||
And yes, now that mention it, it is rather like teleportation.
|

|

|
||
> And that’s leaving aside the urge to see how low to the ground you can bank it … how fast, how smoothly you can take that corner, fly around it … like you were on a race track.I’m learning on a cruiser style which takes the edge off this urge somewhat. But eyeing something more sporty for my upcoming upsize and anticipating that I’ll be a right demon on the thing. Until a NDE knocks some sense back into me…for a while. Sooner or later, the increased caution will last. Or I’ll get killed..

> “but don’t try and keep up with him — you’re *not* him … *you’ll* die.”Maybe I’m not quite so charmed. But pushing myself to face my fears isn’t a bad thing.
|
||
|
||
Besides, I’m still not entirely convinced I’m not a parallel version of *you *and therefore should have no problem keeping up. It remains to be seen.

Definitely not the best way for everyone, but it may well be the best way for this wavelength ;)
