FabSwingers.com forum: I spend it on...

By (user no longer on site) OP

Disposable income. What you have of it?! I'm lucky in that i have a fair bit (no kids) but I'm totally addicted to spending my money on nail varnish, tattoos and gigs. In the next 6 or so months im off to see Nickleback (dont judge me); Def Lep and Whitesnake (judge me i dont care); Asking Alexandria and Black Stone Cherry with Halestorm and Shinedown. I also want tickets for of Monsters and Men and Skindred.

So where's your cash go and how much fun do you have spending it?

Sp engineering and Fuel do some nice Stubbies at reasonable prices. Fuel sounded lovely on the vfr.

I've got a gsx650f courtesy bike at the moment the seating position is so wrong bars need to be about 4 inches lower and 3 inches forward lol.

The stock can on it looks like a garbage bin my gran had and can't really 2 finger brake as to get them to work I have to pull it so far back it crushes my other two lol.

Gonna ring up layer and see if they've got something better.

What bike are you on? You would have liked Dora she was awesome

Ahh gotta love wiring, it can be like trying to chase rot if you're just trying to remove the corroded stuff but it's often best to just replace the whole funking lot with a good high quality version that's right for your needs.

And stick a few lengths of colour coded strong string in all the conduits incase you ever have to add more.

Cat6 is a good one to have put in if you're getting the plug sockets done and it requires chiselling out very handy if you ever go for a home media set up.

Cbr600 f4i the fs one, perfect all rounder sports bike.

And you can probably flat foot it without having to change linkages.

I'll recommend the 5th gen (98-01) vfr800 to everyone as a great all rounder but it is a heavy thing

None of what you just said makes any sense to me. I am paying a team of blokes to come and rip out all the old dodgy wiring and replace with something safe and modern and which involves enough plug sockets in each room. My poor house is going to get torn apart though

Cat6 is for basically gigbit speed Internet and other stuff if they stick it in while they're doing the other work you can have way faster than wifi.

And if you stick some cord in the conduits if you ever need to run a new cable instead do riding the house all art you just tie the cable to one end and pull it through to the other

We have a decent amount of disposable income - we tend to spend it all on being out of the house and travelling. We haven't stopped in June we've been to gigs and been travelling - we have just come back from the canaries then headed down to London for the weekend to the theatre - we go to the east coast every few weeks for a short break, we are off to LA and Vegas in 10 weeks, then Amsterdam, then the Maldives and then a 10 Island 5* cruise - we keep getting pestered by family to get married and have kids but I'm too busy enjoying life

That's what I tell my eldest daughter. It's been really tough for her on her own with 3 children and two jobs. I keep telling her it will get better and easier. It's heartbreaking sometimes and I feel bad that I can't help her more.
