Ptero, I just finished reading your entire post and must share with you the utter disappointment that I'm feeling at this particular moment in time. In fact I'm a bit shattered if I'm going to be totally up front with you.
How on earth could you of all people, if even for a moment, even consider writing such a thing in a thread on this forum after the amount of time you've invested here. Surely you know that of which I'm referring to. No post that mentions an eatery named the Robertson Pie Shop should ever be published without including a photo of said establishment for my viewing pleasure. I looked the thread over multiple times, down and up and back. No matter, it seems that such a photo is not to be found. The photo of the Fish Creek Hotel almost made up for it, but not quite.
Now in all honesty, I can't even tell you why I get such a kick out of a place named Robertson Pie Shop. But I do. I suppose I find some comfort in this, for reasons not totally known to me. In fact, at this point if I were to ever make a trip to Australia I would not consider the trip to be complete without visiting the Robertson Pie Shop.
Of course, other than this unimaginable oversight, it was really nice to see a post from you and a great post it was. Fantastic photos as well. It was really nice of you to take us all along on the ride with yourself and Cormanus. Speaking of the photos, we have a rhododendron bush in front of our house. The one in your photo looks a lot like ours — the house that is. Man, that rhodie in your photo is huge. Thanks for sharing!
As far as the Italian temptation is concerned, I'm guessing only you can determine what the right answer is. Out of curiosity, just how hard would it be to come by another CB1100 were you to part with Last Blast and then later on decide that would like another CB? Whatever you end up choosing to do, hopefully you'll still be sharing your words and photos with us further on down the road (both literally and figuratively speaking of course).
