I Shouldn't have done it!

When there's no way that you can get what you really want it's easy to put it out of your mind but when it is dangled tantalisingly close, you can't stop thinking about it.

I'll elaborate... Now that I've passed my motorbike test I am allowed to ride a bigger bike up to 33bhp (if you interested!). I've been thinking that buying a bigger bike on our current budget was well and truly out of reach. Until, that is, a chance conversation with my brother led me to wonder just what I could get for my current little Honda and how much more I could would need.

So I mooched down to P&P in Chichester where the owner was surprised to see my little bike which is apparently quite rare and to him worth around £500! This plus the paltry sum I have saved is not enough to buy the Suzuki Freewind (an appropriate name reader who know me may comment) that I found hiding at the back of the shop (I'm sure it was winking at me!).

So I need about £800 which is alot of money but it's not thousands. I'm not keen on borrowing but waiting is going to be painful and there's always something more important. My big-boys' toy is close but not close enough :-( Now I'm thinking that maybe I shouldn't have looked in the first place. Hmmm
