I'm back
I had an 1100 EVO a while back that I traded in for a Tracer so as I could tour with my wife. I always missed the Monster, well yesterday I took delivery of a 2016 1200S (kept the Tracer). Bad timing really as Doris turned up today and ruined a ride out.
It's good to be back |

Welcome back.
It's the worst storm name ever. If I get killed by a storm one day I'd hope it'd have a cool, ominous name. I'd be pissed if I was hurt by a Doris! |

Don't worry, Storm Monster will be along very shortly as Roger Waters said :- "Waiting to weed out the weaklings. Waiting to smash in their windows And kick in their doors."

Naming UK storms is all a bit over done to me. I understand if its a hurricane (or their equivalent cyclones) where probable loss of life and massive property damage -whole towns washed away or buried following rain induced landslides- occurs.
I wonder if this will be known as Doris Day and a series of old black and white movies will be shown?

lol, Charles D!ckens name was censored by the forum, An English literary icon no less. He wasn't even considered that controversial even in his day.

Its pathetic really, isn't it? I mean lets all go and hide in the cellar while Doris does a fart in our general direction. I think I might have lost a few tiles, but then I wasn't standing around outside waiting for them to fall on my head. I mean if you want proper scary storms go to the Midwest US, most of the major buildings over there have proper fully stocked storm shelters and for good reason.

Blair was just a load of hot air really, nothing to worry about. But I do like how you included B(liar), Bush and Hitler as equivalent.

Say what you like about the last President.
He offered millions of dollars of aid to Ireland when he heard the news about Hurricane Higgins
