Aerial footage: Migrant workers return home on motorbikes

Moto Guzzi V11 Lemans Tenni

Home from Nightshift, stopped on the way and bought a bike rack to attach to the bullbar attachment, and also an attachment to attach to daughter's woman's bicycle so it can attach to the bike rack...and a tow-ball wrench/spanner thing so that I can attach the bike rack attachment to the bullbar... It's quite complex to be a bloke. We think and suffer deeply about this stuff. Still a couple of hours to be awake to go and pick up Dear One from work, come home, then get some sleep. A tall bottle of Guinness Extra Stout in the fridge as the usual 6 hour sedative. I was thinking about cars...I never really liked them much after about 1965...much more interested in motorbikes for decades. The current car, the 2015 Nissan D22 working blokes 4WD Navara dual cab ute is the most expensive car I've had in my life...just under $30,000 AU dollars...and that was on a very serious end of the marque 'run-out' sale...so about $15-20,000 less than an equivalent Hi-Tech Toyota Hi Lux or Ford Ranger dooded-up one...and the D22 included a bullbar, twin batteries, spotlights, towbar, roofracks, tonneau cover, etc. The D-22 model hasn't changed, I think, since 2003 by the look of it...a better engine now, but everything else is pretty old school...it has a real cigarette lighter, 4 ashtrays and a 6 disc CD player...odd, yes. The speakers are awful so brings it all back to reality. The thing is that I really do like it after about 6 months...I really do like everything about it...it doesn't go fast, the brakes aren't magnificent, it steers like a cow, the seats are pretty standard Nissan uncomfortable, it's noisy, it's basically a truck...but somehow it's an honest vehicle in some way. Genuine olde worlde Japanese technology made in Bangkok. It's got an efficient 2.5 common rail turbo diesel engine and blows black smoke on strong acceleration as they all do. It's only done about 5,000 kilometres. As I've mentioned before, I don't like things in cars ...warning, reversing, overtaking alarms that go 'beep'. Only the car horn should go beep...and the Nissan is very good in this way. I don't like tv entertainment 'screens' etc and the Nissan doesn't have any. What it does have is a massive air-conditioner which is just wonderful....ambient 45C temp to 16C in about 5 minutes. No Volvo or Honda can do that. Looking back, I haven't owned many cars, and no very expensive ones at all...and most very second hand...but as I get some free time I will post an 'apples & oranges comparison' of them....from the 1965 Austin Westminster A105 with the twin SU carbies and the Borg-Warner shift, the benign and silent Wolseley 24/80, an immensely fun Honda Acty Van, a couple of magnificent Daihatsus, a tediously boring Subaru Impreza R, a high flying Volvo SSRI sports coupe, a very good Mazda Boss big-tray ute, a VW 1500 Beetle, a Holden Kingswood Station Wagon, & one of the first Honda Civics. As things stand, I'm really happy with the current Nissan Navara Dual Cab Ute...basically because it's so simple and honest, it works, and spare parts are dirt cheap...because the line has been in production for so long up til last year without changes...and the airconditioner, as mentioned, is like something from heaven....and the whole 2015 thing almost at a 2003 price. The only cars left that I'd like to actually own, but don't need to and won't are: 1: a 1990 Subaru Brumby Ag-Quip Ute with bullbar and winch... 2: ...hmmm, nothing else. As for motorcycles I'd like to have, but won't ever get, and don't expect to...there's only 2...a 2003 Moto Guzzi Le Mans Bon-homme VII in silver, green, brown and red...I forget the special name but I'll post a youtube video of one starting up...what a treat of sound...Ah yes! The Moto Guzzi Le Mans Tenni...magnificent... and one of the new BMW street bikes...an R Nine T...they look good. Both are twin cylinders, the BM donk is horizontal, the Guzzi's engine is at that odd Italian Lake Como 45 degree angle. To ever have to choose between the two...I'd go for the old Guzzi. They're related too, both designs had their inception during the time when Hitler and Mussolini dreamed together of a United Europe...A European Union...what a strange dream of bizarre madmen that was...

MH370...let's play 'connect the dots'...the plane carrying over 300 passengers, mostly Chinese, is flying from KL to China over the South China Sea where US Navy has been and is still conducting laser-EMP 'pinging' of China's sea, land and air radar defences...to neutralise them... Then the plane gets hit by this and crashes there in the sea. The US Navy cleans up the site.. The facts get delayed and rewritten and the Malaysian PM announces the plane actually turned around for no reason and went over Penang...and then disappeared... Then, it didn't actually do that, but, um, yes, it didn't actually do that but went almost half way round the world and crashed in the only place it couldn't be found... Then Obama arrives in Malaysia and they sign up to a new secret military alliance. Then the Saudi Royal family give the Malaysian PM $890 million as a gift without telling anyone. Now, are the Saudi's very good allies of the USA? Yes. Could the USA have given the Malaysian PM the money? Not directly. It was only the Chinese Secret Service that got the whiff of this pointing to the Malaysian PM as the 'office' where all the info went to...and then an odd story eventually came out of...

world news...PM of Malaysia, who was given US$890 million by the Saudi Royal family, for nothing, at the time the MH370 went a-missing, said he will be returning about US$650 million to the Saudi Royal family, since the gift was discovered by the media...the difference between the $890 million and the $650 million is the amount he has already spent.

The Attorney General of Malaysia finds the PM has no case to answer.
