Thanks for all the replies guys, generally positive, but hey shit happens.
I've bent the indicator back into place but not much i can do about the lever (unless i buy two new matching ones) because i've only ever seen one other bike like it.
Nath, i don't plan on being totally dependant on my parents for the rest of my life, hell i even just got myself a job that pays 250 quid a month...not bad in my point of view but i'll try scrape enough together and go for a kitesurfing holiday somewhere....
Siggi, my tracking skills aren't as good as yours, can you try find him for me? I'm sure he looked something like this:

Why's that RealNinja? So your kids couldn't badmouth you over the net?
Either way, i just went downstairs to get a beer and my dad handed me my license and the keys to his bike until i get the bandit sorted. WEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I presume he thinks you fell off. Once he has calmed down, point out that if you had crashed, there would be scrape markes along where the bike slid rather than scuffs from hitting the ground.
What sort of bike? I presume it is an old/odd one?
I went through exactly the same kind of thing with my Dad. It is natures way of telling you to move the hell out. There are two adult males in the house and it will inevatibly lead to warring.
In the situation you describe, my Dad would have thrown stuff at me, threatened to chuck me out of the house then gone and upset everyone else in the house too. We get along very well now we don't live under the same roof all the time. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen.

I know 250 a month ain't much but i've got a roof over my head, a bed to sleep in and food. I'll basically be saving up the money for a 6RR cuz i don't need anything else.
Maybe when i move out and share a flat with mates i'll learn to appreciate my parents a lot more. Guess that really will be thinking outside the box. |
Ah right. Ok mate. Dont worry bout the rows, theres always arguments. I remember when i was at college, shit me and me dad were like arch rivals. If i said one thing he would jump straight down my throat. We'd argue and never back down. I never did what he said, just out of spite, to prove to him that i didnt need him.
Then when i moved out it kinda died off, and now its great. We get on well, see eye to eye on so many issues. He actually tells me stuff about his life which he hasnt told my mum (his wife for 35+ years) so theres definately a bond there now which wasnt there 5 years ago.
Keep smilin mate, and like someone has said - you got a job, you got transport - take your bike away for a little while, clear your head - it will do you both the world of good.  |
