  1. Is your Ducati in the back of it, having broken down again? ;)

  3. And I don't own one...
     
  4. Bet you got a white van tho ;)

  8. I've been in the office then went to Manchester and Wigan this afternoon for meetings.

    Since I've been home I've cleaned and waxed my leathers, gloves and boots. I've sanitised my lid and cleaned pandora, all in readiness for the weekend in jockland :upyeah:

    Tomorrow I will double check what the weather is going to do and pack accordingly for an early start on Friday morning :)
     
  9. Come home to find the bloody deer have eaten half the plants I planted on Saturday.

  14. melted. oh and got another ppi claim approved today. ya beauty!
    whens the new scrambler out?
     
  15. I was cutting the grass last night, bumped over a few windfalls and then there was a large vibration from the ride-on and the cutting blades started dragging along the ground on one side.
    Clearly something was amiss. I know nothing about ride-on mowers so didn't know if some shaft had broken, or if maybe some bolt had fallen off. Left it outside the garage. Phoned up the agricultural machinery suppliers at 8 today (who look after combined harvesters, so my little ride-on isn't very frightening for them) told them of the problem and they said they'd pick it up at 9:30 and have a look. By the time my wife was having coffee with the neighbours at 10:30, the thing was already returned (or repaired in situ) and all ready to go.
    Finished the grass cutting this eve. Cool.

    I also had the wood floor sanded and oiled in the front room on Monday. Only in Switzerland would they say they'd be there at 8:30 and show up at 8:10. It never fails. They are always early - electricians, painters, sanders, electrical appliance repairmen, plumbers. Never on time - always early. In rural France count on them being about 3 weeks late.
     
  16. 240 mile round trip and a nice 9 holes at Otterbourne golf centre on way home. Did t know it was there, cheap as chips and just a few irons needed...and hitting the ball far better :D

    One to visit often at a fiver a 9 hole round
     
  17. Work/life tipped on my favour so we got to go to Weston bike night. 749 way too hot to ride in this weather, I had a sauna in both directions!
    Mel was almost taken off by a car who, to take the third exit off the three lane roundabout positioned himself in the far left, we were going straight over, fortunately Mel was on the ball but smacked his knee on the car, kept the bike upright, the driver said 'but I'm going right' and drove off!
    Anyway got to the sea front and parked up. We saw two 696 monsters, a Hypermotard, Multistrada, 900SS, Diaval, 999s, an ST4 (could have been an ST2, can't remember) and about another thousand bikes of other makes. I really like the 800 Brutale that was there.
    Anyone else make it this evening?
     
  18. Golf. You should bring your kids up to play it.
    Professional golf: money - potentially huge. Risk zero (if you avoid thunderstorms). Sweat - nil.
    Money for old rope.
    Mind you, the amount of time required to be any good is so enormous I just know that my life will never have time for it.
