  3. Been to Narbonne today. Mandy wanted some new shoes and we needed to get some food shopping done. Tomorrow's plan is to cycle to the next town for lunch to celebrate our first anniversary here. Got wine and beer in, to continue the celebrations when we get home! Sunday? No plans yet, but Mandy's got to leave home at 4am Monday morning to take the TGV to Paris for a meeting, so I don't suppose we'll be partying on Sunday!

  4. You gain nothing on going full at it on the weekend. I have learned to continue asking clients for questions, over and over if needed, simplifying requests until there is no chance of a misunderstanding.

  5. You know, some people procrastinate when asking for stuff like that and leave it to when they feel is the last time, and usually that happens to be the end of the week. Just leave it to monday, two days isn't much and enjoy a day off.

  6. You wonder how many more fuck ups it's going to take before peeps start realising what a bunch of chancers this lot are that's running the country. The problem is there is no credible opposition, listening to Kier Starmer makes me go to sleep

  14. Nor mine. But I had to be in Ohio by Saturday to look at some property that my wife wants to buy. Getting across the country kinda sucks at times but it has to be done. The good riding will now start and I'm not in a hurry to get back home, so will do some much shorter rides on nice 2 lane roads from here on. The fun starts now.

  18. October 2016 or 2017, coming back from Morocco: night time, tired, hungry and cold arriving in Lisbon in the rain, my more than half worn Heidenau K60 on a loaded bike letting me know at every motorway offramp and expansion joint why they are known to be shit in the rain. I swear I thought we were going down every time I had to put the slightest amount of lean into a corner.

  19. Going too fast on my CX500 on a dual carriageway, saw a queue and started braking, brakes not up to it so carried on down the middle still braking like mad, reckon I passed about 15 cars before I got to the speed I should have been filtering at. Riding into the Blackwall Tunnel when a metal hub cap came flying at my face from traffic going the opposite way. I jerked my head so quickly to avoid getting knocked out I had a bad neck for about a week afterwards. On my GPz750 late at night, I came flying round a corner on a dual carriageway hill in town. Two cars had stopped for no apparent reason so I braked and came to a nice controlled stop. Looking in my mirror I saw a Ford XR3 Turbo thing with all its wheels locked up screeching up behind me. I clenched everything and it stopped gently touching my number plate.

  21. Ive come off on the Portway! Although you skilfully executed a saving manoeuvre after suffering mechanical failure where as I ungraciously tipped off my bike coming to a stop I was so embarrassed, Id only been riding a week or so and really hadn’t mastered the slow control needed to filter in that environment but decided to man up and go down the centre of the two lanes anyway then the gap closed, I did some pretty incompetent braking and toppled off in the centre of the two lanes. Then it got scary because the traffic started moving again and no feckers stopped, they were driving around me either side at increasing speed as the traffic cleared and I couldnt pick the bike up because the cars were squeezing by so close. In the end I managed to get it upright, I half closed my eyes expecting to get hit by a car but somehow it was dandy and the bike was fine but my god I felt a prize prat, a lucky undamaged prize prat but way up there on the Richter scale of a dumbquake

  22. I see that Boris has done a U-turn and is now allowing foreign workers to come back to work in the abbatoirs. I hope they don't employ any ex French fishermen or we'll all be poisoned

  23. I ran out of brakes on my Gilera SP180 approaching a set of traffic lights on the Portway in Bristol . At the time they were doing roadworks so I rammed all the temporary road bollards to slow down, scattering them in all directions. These bollards were the big 3 foot tall jobs, feck me they hurt my bloody hands but did the job. I got some real dirty looks from the car drivers all around me

  24. There are shitloads of you tube clips of mad inventions and if you look at one the place will plague you with suggestions for others. Honestly, how did we not get a man on the moon before the Yanks I'll never know.

  28. Her mail was full of garbled shit not clearly explaining the functionality she wants! For example, she wants a registration system! Now that's easy enough.....but what does she want it for? Like what can registered users do that unregistered users can't? No good asking for a registration system without explaining the reason for it! No doubt it'll be some stupid, complicated bullshit that she wants to hide at the moment until she gets a rough cost. Then after getting the cost she'll say......"Well I thought that was included". I know all the fucking strokes and the "playing dull" routines they use.
