So what have you done today..?

Busy day yesterday (aside from work)
1. Collected generator cover (newly coated)
2. Went over to Rich's at Louigi for a lesson on Sprag clutches.
3. First time really this year to have a good blast on the RSV4 home from louigi (my suspension learning steed at the moment)

Good excuse to put up a pic....heres Rich's new track whip...definately a showcase for Louigi's engineering prowess....

 

I've got the next few weeks off so the decision to paint the lounge has been made, can't wriggle out now

 

You are lucky. I have been detailed to do hall, landing, stairs and study.

 

get on with it.........

 

It's no good messing around, that's a mans machine

 

I realised my parents favoured my twin brother today, when they asked me to blow up balloons for his surprise birthday party.

 

Always a bastard, hall, stairs and landings, if it's just paint it's not so bad, paper is the worst.

 

I'll pick the paint up on monday, can't wait

 

Don't forget the sugar soap........

 

Got some, it was all done about five years ago so it's pretty good, the wife will moan about the smell of the paint, guaranteed

 

Use lacquer

 

Today I will mainly be cooking mole, had a box of mexican chile peppers delivered, a new one to me, let's hope it tastes like it looks.
Then a blast on the bikes, Oxford sounds good, there's some great roads on the way.

 

Oh she would be pleased, did you get rid of the smell from your en-suite spray booth?

 

Today is the tenth anniversary of losing my Grandad.

I remember waving him goodbye as he walked into that maze.

 

Took the van for an MOT a month early... but no it was a month a day.... so the month in credit doesn't count.... Expiry date 20.03.21
Then shopping with SWMBO... queued for 35 minutes then had the embarrassment of having each 4th item taken off us....
I normally buy loads of anything I want.... but my wife said 4 items maximum; but no, at the Til the new rule was 3 items...
They did note that we didn't buy any toilet or kitchen roll (we've loads here), which made my wife go red
I did manage to get a gross of Red wine to top up stocks,

 

I'd really like a larger one for loading up muck away lorries or you will struggle with reach.

 

Had a walk up the side of the river and back through the town, it really is quiet out there.

I meant to take some of those disposable gloves I have in the van for filling up from the diesel pumps, saves getting diesel all over your mitts, but I forgot. Fortunately the thoughtful fuel station owner had placed disposable disinfectant wipes at all the pumps so I took a wipe, used it to hold the pump and chucked it in the bin afterwards. Touch to pay with the card and a quick squirt of hand sanitiser from my own supply just in case. Can't be too careful in the current environment.

 

Took the 1198s for an mot, passed no problem. When I told the tester I was a bit worried about the noise of the akrapovic cans, he laughed and said most of the fuckers don't see you so make sure they can hear you
