Ah, this still exists doesn't it
Right, given how I haven't posted in a while, I suppose I best do so.
Short form:
Have moved form leaky flat to cotswold stone cottage. Much win, but significantly colder.
Have done CBT and bought 125cc cruiser style motorbike to learn on. It's good. Gear changing while going are very much easier than all the pissing around in 1st they get you doing on the CBT. Sadly I still fail at hill starts. Also hitting the horn rather than turning off the indicator is an occasional problem.
Work is much quieter at the mo, so have weekends free. This, along with being almost mobile now, has led me to seriously consider the reserve forces again (most likely TA, as they're the local ones).
I still have excellently random friends.
