Bought/ordered a new motorbike a few weeks ago without telling the wife. It's not due for delivery until some time in October.

I didn't tell her at the time, and the longer I left it the more difficult it seemed to be to do so.

It finally came out today and I'm still alive and my balls are still attached, which is a bit of a relief.

Royal Enfield Interceptor.

I see that they have had very good reviews. I might be tempted to get one at some stage.

When I am looking for new writers, I ask applicants to talk to me about cheese. It's a way of getting a candid demonstration of their skills, and their enthusiasm for the job.

This is one person's take on the good stuff:

Quote
I like cheese for the critical and futuristic thinking it inculcate. However, I do not know how to play it. I know a few things about it such as the King, the Queen, and the Knights that's all.

The candidate has not been short-listed.
