  2. Went to mow the grass and my lawnmower wouldn't start. :(

    Plug is soaking wet, so dried it off, set the gap and tried again. Nothing and the plug is wet again. :confused: Tried another plug and it soaks that too. Took the top off the pull mechanism and got a power drill on the motor and spun it up for 10 seconds..........dead. :skull: Bugger, I was going to put it in for a service but by the time I do that and pay for a new coil (suspected cause), it may not be economical. Went online and ordered a new petrol mower. :upyeah:

  4. Spent an hour and a half in the local Lidl this afternoon. It was full of brain dead zombies.

    I hate shopping :confused:
     
  5. More tinkering in the sun and topping up the farmers tan .. was v hot here today.
    Soo, I cleaned up the fork legs on CR #3 and gave them a coat of clear
    fitted the triples with taper bearings and needed a spacer - wished again that I had a lathe, but made something up in the pillar drill

    Still can’t get any gas for the bbq .. 666BDC5F-03BF-4C45-AB8D-60B56A4ADE52.jpeg DCBCDE1F-EA90-46C7-AA6A-205ACDB4B064.jpeg 50A62035-4EE2-4957-81EB-CCCC9C1CB2B9.jpeg 05F7E2A7-82A6-49F0-8BEE-E5AAC93B48AB.jpeg

  9. @mike willis has a lathe he is looking to move on to a good home and he is very close to you.
     
  10. The people sending out the bots must be bored during lockdown. Yesterday I must have deleted 15 of the buggers and today may just beat that number.

    We must be a great forum that they want to join all the time:)

  11. It is still there, this week has been a bit odd so we've not pursued clearing his tools.
    There is a bandsaw too, lots of hand tools, a bench you can park a bus on, a welder, I've not really checked out exactly what's there but may get a look later today.
    If anyone wanted to take a look I'm sure we can work something out.
     
  12. Massive ride out delivering meds yesterday, went out in the morning and did two, then broke for lunch and went out again.
    My sat nav packed up and I had to go back to the old school method of following my nose and asking the postman, got it in the end with the help of a few locals.
    I have found some amazing places along the way, stunning villages, lots of interesting back roads, so many pubs and restaurants that we will visit when this is over, there's a real joy to going down a lane to see where it comes out.
    My back tyre on the Multistrada has seen better days, I've done a few miles lately, I have booked it in to be changed, they will only service bikes being used for medical purposes or key workers, thankfully I qualified.

    When I’m fully better I’d like to do some.

  14. I'm running stuff around for a private clinic, a group of doctors and clinicians, my wife is part of this group.
    I would think a good place to start would be your local NHS trust or offer your services to a private group, I hope that helps.
