So what have you done today..?

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by figaro, Mar 17, 2012.

  1. As the weather is so inclement today, I got in the garage early and started stripping the crash bars, fairings and petrol tank off the Multistrada to fit replacement heated grips. Took 10 minutes to fit the grips but nearly 2 hours to get all the ancilliary stuff off to get at the connectors. As all the panels were off decided to give them a thorough clean and polish so took another 2 1/2 hours to put everything back together. Still the bike looks lovely and clean and the heated grips work again, hoorah ! Andy
     
  2. A day in Singapore, a week in Cambodia, a week in Bali, and a week on gili air and gili t.
     
  3. Finished reading my book on "How to give constructive criticism" tonight.

    It was crap

  9. The wife says I'm a typically, tight-fisted, ass-hole of a Yorkshireman, so to prove her wrong I took her out for tea and biscuits today.



    It was quite a surprise, as she had never given blood before

  14. Went out for what must be the best curry I've had in years tonight - 4 of us who have known each other for 45+ years! Afterwards we all went to a nearby pub and watched the England Woman's football which I had bet Holland to win 3-0 @ 5/1 - not very patriotic I know? But I couldn't believe it when Holland knocked in their 3rd goal in what was literally the last kick of the game
     
  15. Repsol 10w50 fully synthetic oil turned up this morning for my hyper and ktm 525. 73 quid delivered for 4x 4liter tubs. Fucking bargain, Might even buy some more....
