Farting around in the mountains near home ....

Battery absolutely flat, think it's buggered, and rear tyre is almost flat too. My wife does not need choc ices..........a good salad would be better for her.

I’ve had two Busas and never found them uncomfortable. Been two up with the missus to the south of France, rode to Lloret de Mar with mates at warp speed and even did a track day on one at Donnington Park……….got a few snobby looks from the track day specialists on their race prepped 998’s, Blades and R1’s but fuck ‘em.

F8ck him, not your problem now. He needs to bin the FPM soon or he'll be fecked forever.

I can’t help but feel he should start documenting these things and go for custody, it’s no way for children to grow up.

Yebbut the Seat is worth more than your Picarsehole

I hope for your sake she doesn’t read this remember you won’t hear her sneaking up behind you or the noise the frying pan makes as it bounces off your head

Surely this is the perfect opportunity to scoot to places. Wifey can’t possibly object to you popping out to pick her up a choc ice!

Bike gear washing day

We feel the same! He should bin her for sure, but the problem is she'll take the kids and it'll destroy him. So it is my problem unfortunately! Your kids are still your kids!

Your children are always your problem. Must be pretty bad if he’s telling Pete about it.

She d.......it would take too long to explain, but I am safe from a frying pan assault.

Everyone needs choc ices!

Vicious animals!

Aircon done......€70! All working fine now! And an ancient Seat (Fiat) that's fucked!

Me to, we are having a problem with the woman in our office in work at the moment, she's complaining it's too cold in her room, when she went off on one this morning i had a look at the thermometer it was 22c in her room and shes sat there all day with a fucking coat on, she used to have a fan heater on but the boss took it away as it was costing a fortune, she would leave it on all night so it would be warm in the mornings and that was when we were having 25c + temperatures the woman's a fucking lizard and before anyone says it she past through that years ago

Yep. It doesn't matter how old they are, either! It's when you're having to stand guarantor for a 30 years old "kid" so that they can rent a place, that it hits home!

Working all fucking day!

Probably won’t switch it on at home because it’s costing her money

A bit of rain last night Clive but good so far today

That’s because you are a gammon, you should ease off on the Yorkie bars.

I can believe that but would have thought it would take more time to be really effective. i had an old range rover converted to LPG years ago, the inside of the engine was full of carbon as it used to burn oil when cold. A couple of months after the conversion the oil pressure light came on so i changed the oil and filter. When the oil came out it was as black as tar and the filter felt like it was full of lead it was so heavy. Because there is no carbon produced when burning LPG the detergents in the oil done their job an cleaned all the carbon out, it even stopped burning oil when it was cold. By the third oil change the oil was coming out almost as clean as it went in.

Well I'm 100 km from quebec city ...sitting in a nice little bistro...made two riding videos of me riding in the great white north..

More riding you casuals ..

Oh yes. Limehouse Matters FB group is full of them moaning about stuff. Just checked it and there is concern that a turtle is living in the dock. Give it a week there will be a petition to have it evicted.

A wander around St Dunstans churchyard. Home of some of the bells from the nursery rhyme Oranges and Lemons. I might try and get pictures of all the ones mentioned. Oranges and lemons, Say the bells of St. Clement's. You owe me five farthings, Say the bells of St. Martin's. When will you pay me? Say the bells of Old Bailey. When I grow rich, Say the bells of Shoreditch. When will that be? Say the bells of Stepney. I do not know, Says the great bell of Bow. Here comes a candle to light you to bed, And here comes a chopper to chop off your head! NO IDEA SO DON'T ASK This is Stepney High Street just outside the church. Still looks like the country lane it used to be.

Today I had to attend the compulsory Staff Conference and Staff Awards 2023 event at an old 1930 cinema in Limehouse. It was a grim as it sounds, a huge crowd and only one tea urn meant nothing to drink for a few hours and once I realised they had no record of who had and hadn't attended, I slipped out at the end of the first break and had a wander around Limehouse. Ladies and gentlemen I give you first of all, the real Albert Square from Eastenders, or the bit the Germans missed as I like to think of it...

388km this afternoon riding to the centre point of France. I think this is a disputed honour and depends on how you find the centre so there must be at least two other "centre of France" markers that I can find this one is in Bruere Allichamps, about half way between Bourges and Montlucon. crossing the Loire lunch stop ( sandwich and thermos cos restaurants are 1) almost impossible to find open on a sunday these days and 2) no longer seem to exist outside the towns and cities. centre point

So they run the bike on hydrogen apparently and it cleans up all the carbon buildup within the engine

If it's the front springs have broke that would explain the headlight being too low

The day I picked it up was just over 300 miles door to door

Anyone can be lucky just once

Yeah its definitely palitive care he needs the menopause happened when that old cunt was in his early 70s..... that was about 80 years ago I've heard

I've done a 300mile day on it though and at no point did I ever say to myself I know this thing needs a fucking back rest, you doddery old cunt

My body missed those memory mechanisms....anything more than about 18⁰c and I'm

It's bordering on ok but not brilliant. Different countries vary for how seriously they take different medical conditions. The Spanish medical establishment does not consider high BP to be that serious, the French take it a little more seriously but not quite as seriously as British doctors do - I'm not saying they are in anyway superior, there are many other things they should take as seriously as other countries do but just don't! The closer to 120/80 the better, over 130 or 90 is not ideal. The simplest way to explain why is - the less pressure against old pipes that crack easily the safer it is. A snap shot BP showing your nearing a more normal range does not give a picture of what your blood pressure is most of the time which is the important part of the equation. If you go for surgery and your BP is too high they will cancel you as high BP equates to If you go along armed with a load of BP readings that show your BP is normally ok they don't tend to cancel and will simply give you meds to lower your BP during the procedure. Turn up unarmed without any info and you risk cancellation. Sorry if that all sounds a bit matter of fact but I figure you're better off knowing.

Latest additon, fully adjustable riders back rest.

Then it was over to Limehouse Basin. pedestrian swing bridge over the lock Thames from Limehouse Lock Another swing bridge for Narrow Street. Anyone who has watched the film Sparrows Can's Sing with Barbara Windsor may remember when she gets stranded with a baby in a pram on an open swing Bridge, this is the one. Walked back via Rotherhithe Tunnel. The tunnelling shield used to dig it now forms the height restrictor.

Some local in Bourges told me it was the centre of France when we stopped there last week, I countered with the fact that Nempnett Thrubwell (10 miles from me ) is the centre of the universe. He looked very confused ..............
