Final day of our holidays so we had yet another day sightseeing around Shropshire. First off we visited a barn and land that some friends of ours have bought to convert and retire to. They've definitely got their work cut out to do what they want to do. Then we went to Much Wenlock which is lovely, then onto Ironbridge for a bit. After that we went to Little Stretton for lunch, which was nice. And finally we went to look round Church Stretton which I thought was disappointing. Anyway here are a few pics from today's jaunt
That Swiss roll looks perfectly edible! when I lived in Bath my shopping fell off the back of my KH250 going up the hill to the Uni. Parked up bike and as I went to retrieve said shopping a car ran over the bag! I remember trying to pick up broken biscuits and a squashed battenberg cake (bought as a treat) wondering what my life had come to......
We were heading for Wombourne ‘cos our gert is doing my family tree and has come across my maternal grandmothers family as ‘boat people’ in that area, so we were going to cycle the towpaths and then to some sort of heritage museum; also my brother has moved to Pendeford and it was an excuse to go for a curry. Don’t worry the jam roll was devoured, I rolled it into a tuile, snorted the crumbs through it, then pretended smoke it doobie style and then nibbled along it’s length.
Watching free practice Motogp and so far heard Huen or whatever the fuck his name is and Hodgson slagging off Fenati and huenspewen giving out incorrect facts, also checked my bank account and still no refund on my Misano tickets(fucking dorna), now looking forward to suzie everybody look at ME perry fluttering her eyelids and cackling laugh and to top it all i have to wait in for a delivery for the wife at 3pm then off for a 996 blast!!
Watching on BT sport 2. I can't stand her either or huen or who ever he is and Hodgson seems to be a bit too opinionated like hueeennne, they are commentators that should have no opinion on certain riders as they spent about five minutes this morning ripping into Fenati, ok he has made mistakes who the fuck hasn't and don't forget this is Fenati's career so these two who don't race for a career should think before they speak!!
A very good mornings work because i've secured an original in fab condition 916 SP /SPS trackstand for £40.00 within striking distance from me.Spotted it last night on Ebay with one bid at £9.10,so i sent the seller a email do you've a Buy It Now offer and he said ...what do you want to pay?..i said £40 cash on collection..job done....but sweated all night as he wouldn't remove it from the listings until i collected it this morning...so turned up 45 minutes early as you do just incase someone started bidding it up.
Result there, what are they selling for now?, i think they are selling somewhere along the lines off stupid money.
For the record i'm always putting my foot in it,i'd to avoid someone the other day because they lost a pet,and i would have said,well you had a good RUN for your money or something stupid like that.
We have all done it, many years ago i was out shopping with my son (i think he was about 12) and a girl i used to go to school with was on the till(new my family well) and asked how is your gran (who lived opposite her) i said she's not to good at the moment and she asked why and i said well she's dead and she was, i couldn't help it, i did say to her it's ok she was 92, a bloody good innings!!
Well we are back home after a lovely week in Shropshire and surrounding areas. I will be back next year but next time on my bike (model to be decided nearer the time) We've been shopping, had lunch, and the washing machine is on. Time for a snooze methinks
