Pretty busy weekend, Pete. Plus I'm still not sleeping so well after the operation, so I run out of steam by the evening and can't really concentrate on anything. Anyway, I am still in the land of the living..........just!

Done my first bit of preaching yesterday , think the congregation enjoyed it

I gots new tires! At this point in my life, that's pretty exciting news!

A shop lost in time:

@Tango's not been on since last Friday.....hope all's OK recovering from his surgery! Just messaged him now!

Stopped on a Gravesend (Kent) industrial estate next to this canal because I was a bit early for a meeting this morning. The road was quite narrow and the small layby was full of water so I parked outside the layby with just enough room for a lorry to pass. Lucky for me, because as I put my phone away a Police minibus and about 7 plain armed response cars with blue lights flashing skidded into the road and flew up the track at break neck speed. Questioning of the man I met with provided the information that there is an armed response training school at the end of the track and they regularly fly around the area at high speed, practicing their driving skills.

Found something in the local shop for your problem @XTreme

I'm off to Granada!

If Pete got his way, perfect bike/topcase proportions…

First ride 2023..temp shot up to 17c today managed a little bimble afterwork.

Eventually your anus will heal.

all balls racing

Beware of booby traps!

I'm back from Granada! Had to wait an hour and a half here while the wife had the injections! Then it was back onto the motorway stopping off at the services in Guadix to admire top boxes! And finally...... Shouldn't be any more Granada trips for 6 months now!

My superior reflex and skills made quick work of the beast..even after a six months lay- over... You were saying trailer queen?

You're not the first Harley owner to say that!

The farmers are pretty aggravated by it!

We're going to demand to be let in next week to check! And taking Paco with us!

Glad you’re recovering though

I’m starting a new motorcycle group, Trailer Riders Fellowship, TRF for short, I’m expecting an influx of members.

Just gave Paco (owner of the flat) a months notice and final payment. They're likely to be gone to Madrid by the end of the month.

You can afford to treat yourself now the fat mutter is going

Those were right at $400 / Euro 366 / 322 pounds - but that's also a wide 200 series rear tire so it's gonna cost more than ADV tires I buy for the Tenere - which are a lot cheaper.

They have burger King in spain...? Wow ! What's its called El burger Kino ?

I wouldn’t , Down syndrome kids pack the burgers in the factory , they dribble all over em , then get sent to Burger King

That only took 3 hours..... Got the rims off of the Goldwing today. Front came off really easy but the rear was a pain in the ass. Five lug nuts - as you would have on a car - that were really stuck on there. Had to use an impact gun to get them off. Hope they go back on easier. Off to the bike shop with them to get new tires mounted in the morning...

Correction, lost count

Bin of the month?

anybody got any contacts ooop tut north, middlesbrough way like? just wondering as a friend of mine here has ordered some bike parts from a shop up there and they're not answering mails or telephone anymore so he's wondering if they've ceased to be...

You are used to hearing it from midgets.

Has fatty ate all the furniture ?

And it's not like it's all the time, get a year or so experience and see about getting on heavy haulage

Yer thats not enough is it but like you say better than nothing and good experience.

Yeah its only paying 12 quid an hour but it's better than nothing and the main thing is I'm getting some valuable experience on class 1 which I wasn't getting anywhere else

Oh yeah I've nearly fallen foul of that over the last week, I've been covering holidays for thinford shavings on the walking floor trailers.....so iv finally put my class 1 licence to use, I've got this coming week and 3 days of the following week booked in then its back on the trade plates

I know people in the area, I was born and raised around that parish.

Maybe big brother is accessing your photos in real time...?

I am 20 miles from Middlesbrough, if you tell me who I can have a nosey round there
