So what have you done today..?

got stresed out mostly today.

 

i wasnt wrong with the weather as soon as somone wants a car brought down the sun shines.

 

Got loads done while sat for hrs at dealership having car serviced, and this afternoon at home. Productive butoften frustrating day

 

did the PPI people turn your claim down then?

 

nah, having first quiet spell in three years of running my own gaff, which in its self no real biggy but persuaded another mechanic to hand in his notice 2 weeks ago and he started to day, been quiet for two weeks now and he aint cheep.
so eh we where talking about getting your car in, must be due a service and t.belt by now. didnt you say your clutch was slipping also?

 

Celebrated our 31st wedding anniversary today.Not quite as I had hoped because the majic fairy with the baseball bat made another visit last night and left me severely broken for most of today.Mrs Mervyn,bless her,made me an all day breakfast for tea.

 

Worked today even though I felt rough, still got this poxy cold. Having an early night with a night nurse. Not the 1st time I have been to bed with a nurse but the first medicinal one
Night all !

 

I got an SMS from the garage saying I could pick up my bike, post their having fiddled about with it to make it easier to start when warm. So I scooted over there on the MV Rivale they had lent me, and which I had also scooted about on yesterday. I've got a good handle on that bike now and will do an in depth review on my blog, with a link to it on here. I was mightily pleased to get back on the 999 and came home at a rate of knots.

It prompted this reflexion: we get so used to seeing what isn't great with what we've got, and wanting something new to replace it with. All you have to do is start using something that isn't as good for a few days and then you are just totally chuffed with what you already have. My, the 999 is a fine motorcycle.

 

I've now written my review of the MV Rivale. It's here:

MV Agusta Rivale 800 Review – Flattery will get you nowhere - The Glidd of Glood Blog

 

Can you see the theme? this will be happening a lot!

So it's 11:46 on a Tuesday? So what? Don't judge me!

 

White wine? Thats for Ladies.

 

I asked for it in a dirty glass, if that helps.

 

I'm a big beer drinker but I do like a nice cold glass of Pino Grigo

 

I dont drink wine. Ale or Malt Whisky. Or I quite like Grimbergen.

Wine is yeuk

 

if it aint guinness or whiskey, it aint bevy.

 

Another blood test today 3rd one in 3 weeks, scan on saturday, a bit tense to say the least.
Fingers and toes now crossed.
