TBH I say that about most lower-lifeforms.

When she was 4 my granddaughter was talking about ducks and I just automatically went "mmm... thems tasty" and she came back with:

"Yes, and if you take the fur off there's chicken inside."

Turtle in the desert? I had to look into that. Lots of strange answers but one did mention imagination and to take Valium so I'll go with that.

You plugged this scoot into the mains yet?

Those motors are a bit pants. Mass produced and made poorly - they do work though. They're OK for kids toys.

It's alive! ALIVE!!!

Wiring fixed, batteries only just fit. Covered the inside of the battery cases with Kapton tape and then put some extra insulation on the battery terminals just to be on the safe side.

Powered up, motor runs...

TO DO:

The chain is beyond salvaging. I gave it a good long soak but one of the links is completely seized up Good enough for a test flight though.

One of the inner tubes is also gone: around the valve stem I've bodged it with a patch and some epoxy; fingers crossed it lasts long enough to get up the road and back.

I'll order some spares after testing tomorrow. If you don't hear back from me I'll bequeath the scooter to Sister Sledge

Desert - Antarctica.

The chain is the same as a bicycle one - not the narrow racing type.
Those motors are so weak that if you put your finger between the chain and sprocket, the motor would stall. Would you dare do it??

Finally, I don't want it but have heard they make great surf boards. Surf boards can slip from under you so make sure to tie a rope between it and your leg before jumping into the sea.

I feel like this thread is missing a long piece of scripture.

[Sister Sledge]

It's OK. He/she knows I like them really and if they're ever up my way they can share a bed.

I got that from a random verse site, I thought you might like it

Okay... so it took about 5 refreshes for that one

How about...

I thought you were getting your coat?

'We ourselves must walk the path. We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. ... Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think'

Umm. I'm shaped by events around me. Sure my mind is the most powerful thing about me but life shapes us not our minds - if our minds shaped us then we'd all be vegetables because the mind needs input to function. Just saying.

Verse, quotes and lies (bible) will not tame me and nor will it control me - a BJ will.
Are you local?
