So what have you done today..?

Arrived in Spain, collected the hire car and drove to Garrucha. Found a beach bar and enjoyed the most simply prepared tapas a la plancha. Aubergine with honey, clams with garlic and fresh caught sardines. One or two beers as well, of course. Andy

 

Walked the streets and tunnels of Santander

 

I didn't see him, but Lt. Gonville Bromhead, Harry Palmer & Jack Carter were all at the burger stand!

 

Caught a train/bus thing

 

Checked the oil level on my 100.000 miles 2002 BMW 1150RT after 1500 miles.. Spot on!
Same goes for my MTS 1100S with 20K miles after flogging it really hard for 10 days in the Dolomites last year. Engine temps going up to 124 degrees Celsius ... way above the 90 degrees when commuting.
Oil consumption... just an tiny bit .. to worth mentioning.

 

150 mile round trip, on some of my favourite twisty B roads.

 

Thanks for the enquiries about my wearabouts folks. (You know who you are) today, yesterday,the day before that and before that and before that ect ect ect I have been mostly taking advantage of the last month and a half of good weather. (I'm only the noo because my receptionist is on holiday) so, in-between putting this piece of shit back together
For selling. Or maybe I will keep it. (It's good fun on the single lanes we have a plenty)
And fugging about the forestry on these

I'm desperately trying to get this done. Started during lockdown. Just a few months she said. She is a gardener so she would know right?
Wrong. 3 years later of most dry weekends and days off. Cow.
Anyhoo,nearly there for this year cos the new and improved bigger top fugging pond can effing wait. Because I am taxing the Ducs today. If she doesn't like it she can fug off. And as for the freekin sunroom thing she is now taking about for the bottom corner? Well, I will be talking to my lawyer
Chortle. Anyways, nearly there for this year and looking good enough for now.

 

It's good to hear from you finm.

 

machined bobbins for abba stand for the 900ss



hoping it stops raining, so that i can do a little more to the bike

 

Watched the rain. Boat repairs another day. I said that on Saturday too. Oh well.

 

nop, nope aaaaaaand nope.

 

Decided that I’ve had enough rest, so went back to the gym for a workout/ light swim. Did a negative Covid test first, just to be sure. Felt good to be out of the house tbh.

 

Finm, you need to sort yourself out.
Way too far behind with dealing with tasks, come on man, you are letting the species down......A LOT!

 

Go

Good to hear you’re feeling better.

 

I wouldn’t go that far, but I’m slowly getting there!

 

A round of Crazy Golf, couple of hours of snooker. Took the lad out to start to learn to drive a car in an empty car park, just a little pulling away and left and right steering drills.

Then home to remove a broken washing machine, I’ll try and buy a new one tomorrow locally.

 

My first day of gardening yesterday with the strimmer, what's going on with this late start into the year as i must be getting lazy or other. Also popped into friends for a chat and one has a Monster up 4 sale.
