me

[Plug007]

After watching 40 tons of artic coming towards me sideways in the rain on a roundabout at 2o`clock the other morning I decided to stop motorcycling after 40 years.

I now have an Octavia Elegance 2003 110 tdi with less than 70k miles on the clock and everything works except the air con compressor is knackered.

I spent 36 years engineering on submarines and at 6 foot 5 have acquired a numb head , I have been a diesel nut since I blew up a 1588cc TD Golf after a lot of tweaking and have been making biodiesel for about 12 years.I play a baritone sax in a Rythm & Blues band called` Stumpy Drives A Datsun` (voted the most stupid band name of 1992 by Radio 1)

My ambition is to compete in Britains strongest man at 70 years of age (15 years to go ).

Welcome to Briskoda from someone who used to enjoy hunting for submarines when I flew Shackletons when based in Malta and Ballykelly.
