Popular Post Gasmantle Posted November 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 11, 2020 Just done a run to the supermarket (about 4 miles away) all was fine till I came to ride back home. Suddenly my helmet wouldn't fit properly, the chin guard kept pressing against my nose making it very uncomfortable. I was in a rush to get home before a heavy downpour of rain so I decided to put up with it and sort out the problem once I got home. For 4 miles the damn thing rubbed my nose and caused minor grazing. Got home, took my helmet off and my woollen gloves fell out of the top - problem solved 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without a working nose, you wont get invited to THOSE kinds of parties. You better take care of that snout, as a heart attack trumps being stuck at home alone, everytime. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gasmantle Posted November 12, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2020 Some years ago I moved to a small town and decided one afternoon to visit the local pubs and try to get to know a few locals etc. I found one pub to be friendly and stayed a while talking to some of the regulars while drinking a few pints of the dark stuff. After a while I visited the toilet and looking in the mirror I noticed a £1 coin firmly stuck to the top of my forehead (I have a shaved head and you couldn't miss it) On returning to the bar I asked the locals why they hadn't mentioned it? They said they thought I'd put it there for a reason and were too polite to ask !! The coin had been in my woolly beanie hat and had stuck to my head, when I removed my hat in the bar the coin was stuck with a bit of sweat. What made the whole situation worse was the fact they thought I'd deliberately put it there 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the months your head has probably shrunken and returned to it’s normal size... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing he accidentally left his wool gloves inside his helmet instead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
