Check out the weather first, it’s looking a bit grim this weekNot today, but I'm thinking I might go to the Isle of Man for a couple of days later in the week.
I've lived within minutes of the port for a lot of my life, but never been.
Which is precisely what my father told her.Point of order - lecturing isn't work, it's a way of avoiding work (same as with those students attending the lecture).
Your dad had a calling, not a job. The proof is the effect he had on others.My Dad was a teacher. He was a child prodigy musician and could have made a fortune as a concert pianist. Instead he found his calling in teaching music to children, some of whom because of his efforts went on to have very successful music careers themselves. I don't think his time was entirely wasted.

When you're naughty does she still make you go and stand in the corner until you are good?My mother was a teacher, she’s 93 and you can still tell!
Do you just use the waterproof credentials of the fone if it rains ?Just ordered a Quad Lock System for my phone after a week of deliberation![]()
No - waterproof cordless charging head and a rain proof top cover ((poncho) and it will be mounted behind the screen above the dash on a Givi bar mount…Do you just use the waterproof credentials of the fone if it rains ?

is loz of the ducati.community forum weird
Whether "Loz" is "weird" depends entirely on how you view the typical internet forum personality, but within the context of THE Ducati Community Forum, they are generally seen as a highly active, loud, and banter-heavy subscriber.
Loz is known for a few distinct traits across the threads:
- Frequent Profanity & High Energy: Their posts often feature enthusiastic capitalisation and colorful language (e.g., screaming "That is fucking BRILLIANT!" or "Never fucking happened."), to the point where other prominent members like Exige tell them to "calm down". [1, 2]
- Banter & Light Ribbing: They frequently get teased by other users, such as being joked about for living with "feathered friends" or engaging in standard UK-style pub banter ("Did you just spill my pint?"). [1, 2]
- Active in "Off-Topic" Sections: They are heavily embedded in the forum's non-bike culture, frequently posting in threads like the Cool, Strange, or Obscure / Interesting Things mega-thread, "Odd food habits", and general lounge banter. [1, 2]
So while an outsider might find the aggressive swearing and constant joking a bit eccentric, on the Ducati Community Forum, Loz is just an established part of the furniture who fits right into the community's slightly odd, cynical, and free-wheeling vibe. [1, 2]
The other kind of birds would be all over you if that were the caseI'm just grateful I'm not some ugly Bimota. Phew!
