I've seethed at an arrogant contractors letter who if he had done as requested 2 months ago instead of leaving it till the last minute, wouldn't be in the shit he's caused and trying to lay the blame at everyone's door except his own! Time to pull out ALL the documentation, prove what a cunt he and all his staff have been and tell him where to poke his piddling order! Politely of course He has no choice but to eat humble pie. And his price has just gone up! Don't you just love the market forces of supply and demand
Spent an hour, in heavy drizzle too, pre washing, foam washing outdoors and then drying polishing bike in garage. At least its clean again, ready to get covered in crap this weekend..
Came up from millau to annecy , is there nowhere in France that's not possible to be on a great biking road , been to places I've never been before and I'm amazed , set sat nav up to avoid toll roads and motorways and away you go
Today I discovered that a Dodge Charger can be a very fast car. I always thought it was a bit of a boat with a monster engine. Well, it appears that you can get the boat to handle. The bloke driving it discovered that it still isn't as fast as a 999. Actually, it could have been a Dodge Challenger. I'm not that up in these things, but I bet someone can tell me all about them.
spent 8hrs trying to save a customer about 6ooba hand polishing 5 camshaft bearing caps by hand with wet and dry, these things should be line bored. he better appreciate it.
Came up,from annecy to the nurburgring some 700 kms watched some cars going round with my son he bought t shirt etc , at 13 years old he loved the ring , couldn't do a lap as my back and arsed were goosed after the ride staying at an der nordschleife hotel at ardenau tonight ready for gentle ride to tunnel tomorrow
I just made a Spanish tortilla which turned out really well. Onion and potato from my garden, the eggs from the next-door neighbour and the truffle from the butcher in the next village (who has a truffle dog). You can't get much more local than that.
Tried to recreate this at 8 am this morning while crossing the airstrip at work on the SF in the drizzle
I accidentally sent a pic of my private parts to everyone in my address book this morning. Not only was it extremely embarrassing, but it cost me forty seven pounds sixty five pence in stamps
Went to hospital after my mutley decided to fall on my leg,ok my legs are short and it's my fault,and I made sure the bike landed on my leg to minimise bike damage. Met a nice nurse. She liked my legs.
So far I've arranged for a tree surgeon to come and take a look at a conifer that needs chopping back, had a conference call with someone in NZ and had 3 cups of coffee. Today could be a long 'un.
Nothing. Zip. Diddly squat. Back to work monday and MGP all weekend and pissing down most of the day so sofa looks great option
