The Retirement Thread

[derrick]

Nice little solo loop, Makes for a nice change, have been riding with the girls for the last couple of weeks, four of them including my other half are doing coast to coast this weekend. So i will be back out with the boys on Saturday, Not sure what to do Sunday. But Friday evening will be in the pub with the boys, so todays training ride did me good, Here's to a weekend without anyone moaning at me.

Do these people think I thick or what

That's very clever and I reckon a few folk will be caught out by it.
However, the URL of the site is not a YouGov one, it's this: http://www.wallacepropertygroup.com/lot4/bkt918.php
I thought I'd play along and entered using a VPN and a false name, false address, false card details and disposable Email address.
It all looks very pukka and automatically returns you (apparently) to the YouGov website once they've mined all of your personal card details.
I think you should circulate a warning on the main board.

The last one I got they couldn't even be bothered to write it in English, which was disappointing, I couldn't have a laugh at the grammar spelling and punctuation.

I'm back, second ride of the week and my second wetting, It had been threatening all the way back from Hatton and finally started as I was crossing Hearsal Common and and starting my ride across Coventry to home, apart from that it was my usual Thursday loop to Hatton, a cold grey day, if it keeps like this I will be breaking out the winter kit, with a steady breeze, but it wasn't a bad ride, 56 miles, a bit slow but pleasant even with the rain at the end.

I just had a phone call from "British telecom" telling me they are going to have to shut down my internet connection for 3 weeks because someone is trying to hack my account. I told him to go forth and not phone me again. Then i put the phone down.

This one is clever. If you click on any of the links on the sign in page eg. Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions etc. it takes you to the genuine YouGov site. A lot of people could fall for it.
I wonder if the Wallace Property Group in Atlanta know that their website has been hijacked?

Good question, probably not.

Good news! An uncle I never new I had has died. Seems he lived in Lagos and left me a lot of money...

Typical, I have never been left a penny by anyone and never will be.

Defective maybe but that could just be the booze.

He was an amateur.
