Yep yous is an old gaffer I’m afraid……it’s been literally downhill since you were 40. No ski pun intended.
I now have a front hydraulic brake on E-bike, straight swap off skip bike number 2 replaced by a cable disc caliper off skip bike number 3, straight swap after messing around with spacing. it's the little things I enjoy these days.
Bought clocks to add to my Honda collection. ebay are running out of all things VFR400 as they are now at my house. However they don't care as they can now retire financially secure.
Tonight I mostly panicked... Going away at the weekend...wanted to check the bike over....but i cant find the key!!!!! At least I've got the pin....NO...IT DIDNT WORK.... it USED to work until the bike went in for a security update.... Ah, but I've got the red key... thouv hb it took . Some.doing to find the antenna Anyhoo... I eventually guessed the PIN....yes, really..I guessed the default or whatever the dealer used....and now I've changed it back to what it should have been So, immediate panic over... but where the hell is that key????
The key is in the magic key box next to my magic specs box at the top of the stairs I have no idea what I go up for. Don’t worry in your last jacket worn or with your gloves. Now where was I…….
Yesterday SWMBO was on the phone to #2 son who is on holiday for the kids half term. Having taken them bowling on Monday he’d asked his kids (9yo & 6yo) what they’d like to do for the day………little ‘un pipes up and says “well I think today would be a brilliant day to go to Next” He comes up with daft stuff all the time…….I think his head is full of cartoons. This was him watching TV later……..who else watches TV like that?
A challenging day. Went to collect my refurbished (car) alloy wheels, only to find when they were unwrapped, that tool pick up during the diamond cutting process had damaged 3 of the 4 wheels which, if the agent hadn’t volunteered to send back, I would have rejected. Then I discovered I’d lost the S Pen out of my Galaxy Note 8 Okay, it’s only a tenner to replace but it’s faff I don’t need. Andy
I’ve spent half the day taking the piss out of Slow Dave as he’s just agreed to chop in his BMW K1600GT TE (which was apparently the best bike in the world ) which was 18 months old and with about 1500 miles on the clock, for a new 1250GS Adventure TE and he’s had to put a shit load down to change
It’s green bin day but I’m not going to bother. Not because it’s a brand new one, you understand, but because there’s very little in it.
I’m lucky if I can donate once a year out this way. I can’t book until I’ve donated. Even if I try and book as soon as my donation is registered it’s often 6-10 months away until I can book another spot in a convenient location. The other thing I find annoying is that giving blood requires two hours plus travelling. It seems so disorganised.
That's a shame - pretty good down here. It was meant to be Friday but I rearranged on the app and managed to book for Wednesday. Then booked the next one at the centre so I could get an early slot.
