Pilch?

Lovely red and white S2R (or is it an S4R?) parked in central London (###################).

The bike has a neat black plate, 'PILCH'.

There's often a 620 parked in that bay, so maybe the owner has upgraded?

That'd be for his TV cake chef job Nonnie oh he's such a celeb these days. I reacon he'd be a cross between Wozza Thompson (short and round) and Kieth "Slurp Slurp" Floyd with a bit of Ramsey swearing thrown in when the cupcakes don't rise.

Throw in a bit of muppet 'Swedish Chef' in there too (apparently).

But, yeah, it's all true.

I've been in London pitching my new TV cookery show, 'The Not-Hairy Biker', where I'll be travelling around on the 696 baking cupcakes for my [soon-to-be] celeb pals.

All the best TV chefs ride Ducatis these days, which is why I got one, got to look the part... I'm hoping to take a spin with Gordon Ramsay on his Desmodesici.

Don't expect me to hang around with you hoy poloy once my fame takes off.

btw, thanks to slob for removing the location specifics from my earlier post, apologies for my mistake

no problem, I'm just a paranoid Londoner,
hence the sticky http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=27204

(not a celebrity but did have an outstanding feed at Heston B's gastropub in Bray on Monday... just don't tell GT how much the bill was)

He's the techno chef isn't he? Did he serve it all up on a mag-alloy wheel hubs and have tiny strands of spun gold cage in the dessert. Seriously Rob was it good?

...that's him, obsesive compulsive chef off telly, bloody genius though.
Restaurant was shut Mondays so no snail porridge or bacon & egg ice cream for us.
We ate in his pub next door, it was every bit as good as you'd hope, not cheap but still good value for what you get. I won't be going back every week but I'll definitely be going back!

Yeah, please do, and warn him he better get some practice in if he wants to keep up with my 696.

He'll be using his full reportoire of expletives when he sees me disappear

Enjoy your dinner!
