This is hilarious. Is it just me, or are those British intersections pretty scary? Tom’s friend is not very safe, but I bet he’d be a lot of fun at a party.
And Helll yeah, we’re going to put an O in when we spell “Manoueverâ€.

Interesting that the friend got demoted to a mod at the end.  Since they both had learner L's covering their headlights (obviously night riding prohibited), I assume that that is part of the Brit licensing program if you fail the motorcycle learning program.

Btw, don't know if you guys have heard this, but here's an update on the lives of that Good-Two-Shoes Tom and his friend...
Tom, because of his extreme anal retentive nature, went on to become thrice divorced, and in 2003 lost everything to his third ex-wife in the settlement. He's now living in a van down by the river[Thames].
Tom's friend, on the other hand, became very rich after moving to the United States in 1993 and investing in a company located in Cleveland Ohio which specializes in parting out salvaged motorcycles(a subject of which he had great experience) which goes by the name of Pinwheel. He's now retired and lives the comfortable life in Boca Raton Florida with his lovely wife and former Victoria Secrets model, Jessica.
(...ironic, ain't it?!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
