With the refund she then goes looking for a totally different piece of clothing like shoes.

Tell me I'm wrong.

here's my version .... woman goes into shop, asks attendant for a specific colour and style of garment. attendant looks at her as though she's got two heads. woman says 'thank you, i'll take that as a no', and leaves. repeats this action in 56 different shops until at last, the perfect garment is found... and the only one left on the rack is a size 16.

man goes into shop (with woman). looks at a variety of garments. decides he doesn't like any of them. action is repeated until a video shop is reached, at which point man disappears into shop and doesn't emerge for 4 hours. woman naps.

man receives one of the previously rejected garments as a christmas present, loves it, and wears it until it falls apart.

I can die a happy man now because I've just got 3 tickets for Take That at Wembly Stadium in July 09.
Look out for my re-enactment on Crime Watch where witnesses saw at least 3 female Vespa riders riding from the scene of the murder shouting the words "I havn't and will never shop at Evans"

Actually Dead Man Shopping would have been funnier.
GT200 update - Today it's had it's first polish with Mequires Gold and next Friday it will get it's final coat of Autoglym Automotive Polish.
At some point soon after that I might even ride it somewhere.

you appear to have a serious polishing obsession. one of two things is going to happen: either you'll have made the scooter so aerodynamic with 60 coats of wax that it'll fly out of your hands and into a curbstone the second you touch the throttle, or you'll have weighed it down with so much product that it will refuse to budge. either way, i'm making sure i get a front row seat for the launch.

Ok here's hoping that it lashes down with rain on November the 14th but dry and sunny on the 15th.
Genie I have a 3rd theory and that's that I polish it so much when I eventually ride it it will go so fast that I'll travel into the future at which point I will realise all of my past mistakes before I've even made them.I'll be like a Catholic Dr Who with added guilt.

all this polishing is my thing as well, but not in the rainy winter... I just feel gutted to see it get plastered with mud on my first trip out!

ps: are we working towards keeping this thread on the first page of General Discussion till we actually get to the 15th? And then at least a week later with the "after math" commentary?

Ooops Sorry if I scared the children.

I know that our little gatherings aren't really a club as such but if we did want to give them a title what would it be ? London Calling / Donkieskok ? what would you all suggest ?

I'm rolling with Donkieskok just because it provokes debate and makes people laugh.If others would be interested in obtaining a pink Donkieskok logo for the Vespa owner about town let me know and I'll ask the Nikmiester if he can knock a few out at a heavy discount.
We were thinking of getting a t shirt printed with Donkieskok on the chest and Ask owner for details on the back. Or I'm with Donkieskok and many others with a simular theme. See what Donkieskok did for me and Everything goes better with a Donkieskok were also considerations.
Oh the product of an idle mind.
