I heard that Ducati were working on a set of stabilisers for Casey's bike. . . apparently to get him to the end of a race without falling off . . .

STONER FELL OFF AGAIN its becoming a habit Stabilisers, he would still manage to fall off even with them fitted. I beet he relay needed ear plugs to drown out the singing and cheering when ROSSI arrived on the podium.

cant see the Brits doing the second verse of God save the Queen You would be supprised how few brits actually know there is more then one verse. God save our gracious Queen, Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen: Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save the Queen. Thy choicest gifts in store, On her be pleased to pour; Long may she reign: May she defend our laws, And ever give us cause To sing with heart and voice God save the Queen. O Lord, our God, arise, Scatter thine enemies, And make them fall: Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On thee our hopes we fix: God save us all. Not in this land alone, But be God's mercies known, From shore to shore! Lord make the nations see, That men should brothers be, And form one family, The wide world over. From every latent foe, From the assassins blow, God save the Queen! O'er her thine arm extend, For Britain's sake defend, Our mother, prince, and friend, God save the Queen! Lord grant that Marshall Wade May by thy mighty aid Victory bring. May he sedition hush, And like a torrent rush, Rebellious Scots to crush. God save the Queen!* * The last verse, and indeed most verses except the first, are rarely sung.
