I say, are there any women here?

[Tetedelacourse]

I'm not a girl, but I like them (over 25-years-old, that is ). And under 60, but I'd make an exception for Helen Mirren.

I'm female, but haven't been here much recently as I have been moving house.
And I can knit, am good at electronics and putting up shelves, and am very good at putting together flat-pack furniture

so there

 

[buggi]

sh!t i can't knit or cook! but i can change a plug, put together flat packed furniture, change oil/battery in car and do my own tyre pressure. and change a flat tyre on a bike. been told i drive like a bloke too, whatever that means (think it means i'm not a nervous fanny on the road) and i have trouble multitasking. what does that make me? am i a hybrid!?

o no, it's okay, i remember, i give good head, i must be a girl after all

You'll start a riot on this forum saying things like that. All those virile blokes out there will be unleashed...

Well, count me in if there's any need for quality controlling that assertion of yours

So we have one lady driving warships and another (Arch) contemplating driving a DC3. Does no-one knit these days?

Welcome Ms Speicher, the more the merrier.

Ahem! As Mickle mentioned, I knit! Once I get my DC3, I'll be knitting a flying helmet....

Not so long ago, I drove a diesel shunter up and down the track at the NRM's Cab It day... And I've been behind the steering of a traction engine. And (briefly) a glider.

A tank would be fun....

I'm with Speicher on not really being into the 'girly' stuff* - give me something smelling of hot engineering oil anyday.

*with the possible exception of dainty little cakes and afternoon tea. As long as there's plenty of them...

I'm glad to see that standards are being maintained.

i have trouble multitasking.

Well, if you can't rustle up a pizza while performing your, ahem, other speciality then I can't see why anyone would trouble you for your phone number.

If you give me a moment I'll just rub some all over..........

A one man tank.

Armed with a paintball gun

One of my friends was driving one for a big paintball game in Wakefield the other week.

You don't want to know how much they cost to buy though. (and yes, they are road legal)

Arch - I thought it was just me. The Captain of the Swedish 1907 Motor ship was a very hot (maritime) engineer, but no oil to be found on the bridge. Perhaps he uses another liquid for lubrication. He let me push all the right buttons, though, to sound the horn for leaving port.

I average about the same speeds as you guys, but it doesn't bother me in the least. Don't get hung up about it!! For me, cycling is all about pleasure, and I'd rather enjoy the journey than bust a gut.

Personally, I fancy Tom Boonen, but I have a strange attraction to David Miller as well.

Correct if you don't enjoy it don't do it, cycling that is not fancying blokes

 

[Kirstie]

Alright this is slightly off at a tangent but if you happen to be watching the rugby world cup and New Zealand happen to be playing watch out for DAN CARTER - he's the NZ Fly Half. Now I have no idea what a fly half is but young Dan is LOVELY. And apparently is one of the best Rugby players in the world. And is also an underwear model in his spare time.

HELLLLOOOO

 

[Cathryn]

Hahaha, I noticed young Mr C yesterday!!!! Meow.....

Most of the French team are quite attractive as well. As are the All Blacks. Am trying to persuade the husband to do a Haka for me, but he won't!!!

 

[punkypossum]

I'm female - and I know how to knit, just don't like doing it...still trying to find someone who will knit me a ferret (****hint Arch ****). Apart from that, I love my bike but haven't been on it for ages due to lack of cycling company, i.e. someone that isn't too fast for me. Never thought I would have this problem, but my current partner refuses to go out with me because I am too fast!!! (me having an average speed of about 14mph)
