Well done Anders and your good lady. Apparently one of the best ways to reduce high blood pressure in women are very expensive hand made Belgian chocolates, which you can scoff during the night feeds when hopefully she will be asleep.

I was just wondering if Anders should have announced their new arrival under 'New members' or 'my latest print' as one could technically say a nozzle was involved! :roll:
At least I didn't say a small nozzle :lol:

Thank you everyone! :-)
I will try to catch up a bit coming days.
For now, we are still in the hospital until they sorted out the blood pressure issue.
Tomorrow I will hopefully have time to stop by work, where my printer lives at the moment, for a rather important meeting.
More about that later.

How is everyone doing?

Just had a 3 day weekend here in the States, Memorial Day....the official start to summer.

Looking forward to a big box to arrive...replacement bodywork for my Kawasaki ZXR 600 motorcycle. It'll look brand new again and I am still debating keeping or selling....because I don't ride as much as I used to and I really need a new printer :)

Sell it, for two reasons
1) you don't want to become a premature organ doner.
2) you want another printer.

We had a really terrible accident a week ago, about a mile from my house.

It appears the driver had modified his handle bars and may not have adjusted them properly. With his girlfriend on back and no helmets/safety gear, they crossed into traffic and hit a car head on. Very severe injuries, driver lost part of his leg, both severe head injuries and brain damage. Early 20's, really gorgeous couple too. Very sad.

I've had more than my share of inattentive drivers not see me...or the kids texting and crossing into my lane. I always wear my helmet, gloves, jacket (kevlar with armored inserts) and the Ninja has extra bright headlights and loud racing exhaust. You can hear me idling a mile away :)

I was bad enough on a push bike, I used to get pulled over for speeding in a 30mph limit.
So a motor bike was not for me, and a car A Triumph Herald 1159cc was my 1st car, followed by a Triumph Spitfire 1300, ;-) a couple of fort escorts :-( , a Triumph TR7 drophead, Mazda 626s then Nissan Teranno, X-Trail, and currently a Qashqai.
My Dream car is a Triumph Stag 8-)

Nice. This motorcycle is very very fast. You can't go full throttle quickly or the front tire goes up :)

As for speed, well in a wide open area of highway it went very high into the three digits :)

Modifying a motorbike handlebar without knowing what you do AND riding a motorbike without a helmet? Isn't that worth a nomination?
