So what have you done today..?

took Elsie out for an autumn sojourn across the West Yorkshire country roads

 

It's never been out so often.

 

well, having just renewed the insurance (£83 fully comp with Devitts), I decided I should re-introduce her to an alternative environment than her shed

 

That looks grate - bikes OK too

 

Grate

Great

 

Fool

 

Agree, must pay more attention.

 

That's a very good price so there's no excuse not to use her

 

Was with Peter James, but their renewal was £117, so I shopped around (Moneysaving Expert Dot Com)

I'm 64 and had bikes officially since I was 16. Never had one single claim - I must get out more.......

 

Ron,Yeah i use the silly web for quotes every year & compare with the existing insurance provider and then make my mind up time,but will try PJ next time around.

 

I've three bikes, all insured with different companies.

 

A bit grey and dull here today, so four tasks accomplished:

1. Sorted MiLaw's electric towel rail. It keeps tripping the fuse.
2. Sloshed 10l of ad Blu into the Mrs. Disco Spt. 10l per 5500 mikes. Not great.
3. Fitted a set of Ex's Exact Start cables to the 748r. Started her up and its true, it started on the button. Last time it was fired up was two weeks ago and then it nearly did not fire. So, happy bunny. I will update the for sale thread with testimonial after a few weeks of use.
4. Fitted @Tommy B 1098 sidestand to the 748. Really pleased with that, sooo much better. And it's the same colour as the original, so very, very happy.

I had not intended doing 3 & 4 until the weather got worse, when I plan a very light resto but, c'est la vie. Also, no further "mods" to the 748. I want it nice and standard.

Now time for late lunch before schools out.

 

Just had a Thai massage at my hotel in Turkey from a Thai lady
never had a massage before was good and hope i fill more relaxed and flexible in a day or two, next thing I’ve not had done my back, crack and sack anyone recommend it

 

Cleaned/waxed two bikes ready for M.O.T's tomorrow or the next day & a reasonably quick time frame.

 

Bumped into an old mate down at the local tesco's. Worked with him for 17 years then careers went down different paths as did we. 55 he is and I ask, how's life bud, he tell's me he has colon cancer.

He said they noticed something wrong 4 weeks ago and went to the gp who did the finger test and within days was having x rays, bloods and mri and a referral to London and the UCLH. They say they have definitely caught it early and he goes in next Thursday to try and remove it all out.

After Lungs, prostate and colorectal cancers are the next two biggest groups of cancers amongst men, and where they do kill you is more about males being unaware or uncomfortable taking care of themselves. Sure a finger up your arse is embarrassing but given the consequences, I'd rather be embarrassed
