G'day All,

Well my riding may be curtailed for a little while. As I have a new son, named Charles. Mum and baby doing very well.  Happy days.

Best to all,

Congratulations Paul.  Just remember, you got 'em for life!  Could be time to add a sidecar to the R65.

A big welcome to Charles.   [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]  And congratulations to Mom & Dad!  

By the time your winter is over you may be able to ride a bit again.   ;)

Forgive Steve. He ain't got much book learnin' but he does know a few things about BMWs. ;D

Don't know about Down Under but in the USofA, kids are referred to as tax deductions. The trick is to keep them from eating you out of house and home. Suggest you invest in grocery store stock!

Do hope Mom and Charles are doing well. Yes, Paul, we know you did play a small part, too. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Post a photo of your son. Hope he gets his good looks from his dear Mom!

I wonder what I would be like today, if my dad (or mum) was a motorcyclist?

What?!! Hmmm, guess my perception was off on that one!  :-[
Wait, maybe that was one of those quickie edits that just didn't show up!

Either way, Paul, congrats to you and your wife on your new son, Charles, and best wishes to you all.
Hopefully they will let you out to play on the R65 at least occasionally!  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Congratulations, and if you find that getting a child is a wonder, just wait till you get grandchildren. That's even better!

greetings from a sunny, cloudless north with dry roads and excellent driving conditions.

Roger the grandchildren, Trolle. We have four; all under the ages of seven years. Revenge is so sweet. We had our pair from Austin, Texas, for a week last month. Spoiled them terribly rotten and sent 'em home. ;D
