Going back to Blighty on Monday and as much as I like wastrels it's not enough to spend my last couple of days in a new Brit Ghetto with a golfing pirate and a teabag hunter

I believe once your dead that's it there is nothing else so told the wife i don't care what she does with my body when i die, preferably i'd like my body to be thrown in a hedge and left to decompose naturally but that's not allowed so as an alternative if i'm cremated i said just flush me down the toilet.

That's why i ride alone because that's me in a nutshell lol

@busabeast you seen this shit , the excuses he made when we said we was coming … it’s to hot .. I got a hernia , my bikes dirty ..

We are going to get frozen … few years they will have the technology to defrost us and we will live again

Nail on the head Caroline! He spent 11 years here, wouldn't get out and meet people or make any attempt to learn the language........then he started talking to her on Twitter. It's the saddest case of First Shag Syndrome I've ever known! If I'd come here at 17 I'd have been like a kid in a toy shop with the young Spanish birds that are about! What you say @Skippy? I expect you've noticed @Six30? And what's great is they'll fall for any old bullshit you come out with! And bullshitting females is my specialist subject! I'd have been wiping my cock in the curtains all the way from Barcelona to Malaga!

I could fly over and finish you with a cushion over your face … quick quite and easy

Not an assumption......we've already talked about it! And his wife is a lovely girl who has elderly parents as well......77 and 69. She's very family oriented. Obviously I'm assuming that I check out first based on the fact that I'm nearly 8 years older than her. Plus, women live longer than men. However.....her family's medical history is not as good as my family's. Lot of cancer her side, none on mine. The wife has always said I'd outlive her, and after all these years (besides my Hernia) I'm still in pretty good shape for my age. Whereas she's had health issues for over 10 years now. But I've told her that should I be the last one standing I'll be staying here! Sounds a bit morbid but at our stage of life we have to have those conversations.

Best we don’t hold our breath Pete……..you know what they say, “If you wanna run with the big dogs, you’ve gotta learn to piss high”

Ridiculous that the Argies still have a full team………..loving the drop goals though, how fucking irritating for the island invading twats.

Every time I've been out clubbing in Swansea its been a total sausage fest, blokes everywhere the best place I've been for men to women ratio was Hereford back in the 90's there were about 4 women to every man and best of all they couldn't get enough of the Welsh accent

Hark at Mr High Mileage Rider here!

Been out on the dog since 10 this morning, called into a bike shop first to see about changing the Beta and then headed to Hay on Wye using as many back roads with tree canopies as i could to keep the heat at bay, it was slow going as they were narrow but after turning towards Hereford on more open roads the temperature soared, In the trees it was a cool 26c but heading towards Hereford it hit 32c which had me head for home, managed about 150 miles didn't take a single photo because i just rode. every time i stopped at junctions i could feel my body temperature soaring so just kept moving and my arm didn't hurt once in fact I've put off riding the bikes fearing it might aggravate the injury and make it worse but it looks like riding the bike is the physio i needed to fix it, had the perfect excuse to ride and didn't do it wtf is wrong with me lol

Is her name Alice?

An empty space in his garage and less maintenance something i could do with lol. I went to see what it would cost to trade in the Beta for a new one today and i'm thinking should i just sell it and have the space instead got a couple of weeks to decide what to do

Fucking hell! What am I working for? I better get back there and get me some of this free shit!

Unfortunately it's people like him that will probably be ok when he reaches pension age. My mother in-law is a widower and said she wishes she didn't have her husbands pension because it pushes her income just above the amount where she would be entitled to additional benefits, she has to watch people she knows who haven't worked a day in their lives get hand outs she's not entitled to making them financially better off than her.

You ain't got the balls to show your face here! That's been well-proven!

It's hard to resist women with their cavern of magical delights

You waaa? You've had to spend your death fund on your kids already?

Yer death plans are quite an interesting topic. One Brits shy away from lest something unbearable like an emotion might surface, heaven forbid We've told my boys to spend as little as humanely possible on cremation, keep the ashes til they have both parents crusty remains, mix them up in a tuppaware and without asking permission from anyone go and throw them (after checking the wind direction ) off the edge of Burgh Island into the sea. Should I become infirm or suffer dementia etc they are under strict instructions to not provide my care, I'd prefer a professional to do that, well meaning relatives are all well and good in theory but they're are often shit carers so a nice care home for me, and I mean nice, the sort thats like a hotel but with one caveat, they put hidden webcams in my room so they can check up sneaky style that the staff are nice!

I don’t think it’s morbid, it’s simply practical, people who don’t make these sort of plans are a total pita for their relatives! Women do often have a level of endurance that’s see’s them truck on in ill health for donkeys years, men are more like dogs, they often don’t realise they’re ill until they die

In my world that’s a compliment so I’m ‘avin it.

She could stay here forever, but she'd have a problem with her limited mobility. Plus, it wouldn't be right for her to be on her own in her old age! So that's why an NL escape route is very important! We can't depend on our boy in Madrid, so it has to be the younger one in NL.

Well said Pete, you’re always fair minded and never take part in a fruitless windup using a bit of Brit bashing. click click click.. monkey herding the IT way

You forgot ‘rifle dropping’

It’s fucking Niagra falls with me out here

And me still working so I'm not in your position Clive!

As I have said before, there 6 bungalows here, 5 of the occupiers know how to work the system, Mobility car each, one other owns 2 newish caravans that he let's out (Skeggy ) 3 of the households have either not worked for quite a while, or at all. The youngest couple (50,s) manage to go to the Canaries at least twice a year, what do I get .....a fucking bus pass.

Sell the Beta? Has everybody gone mad here with bike buying?

Our elderly neighbour (shuffled off now) hardly ever worked, after her husband passes away she was able to make a claim for pension credits, she use to say that she had never been so well off.

Yes they cant leave you to die they have to give you something or you make something up so you can claim like the lazy bitch living next door to me

I told you to come over! And of course you did eventually.......to the other side of Spain. And you won't even give the location.

Yours is IMO a bit different. For whatever reason he's damaged goods who shacked up with a nutjob and bred with her before he realised what was going on (men and their dicks, it happens) and now doesn't have the wherewithal to get himself out of the situation. Thats just sad.

Fuck that. Really just fuck that. But also yer I get it Why is he the way he is @Clive?

Yeah Ireland vs Romania was always going to be a completely one sided affair, nothing was learnt or gained it was just a training session for Ireland

it was in the end. I like the spirit the Namibians showed. Not sure what we learn't about Ireland or Romania apart from the massive gap between them.

We"re paying for the grandkids school books next week. Probably about €350-400.

Me and my wife are having the cheap cremation, just from place of death to the local crem, and ashes returned to family in a polythene bag. Hope it don't happen anytime soon as our kids have made us dip into the fund.

Well it is always something to be spoken about, possibly even more so given you're effectively on you're own and not getting any younger so should the inevitable happen you know what will happen to the survivor

The current plan is to just do the well trodden but beautiful roads from a Ride magazine guide. This is what I’ve been sent, we’re doing 34-37 I’m looking forward to it, I like the two I’m meeting up with a lot. Non-bitchy, non-whiny, practical and quietly tough but still somehow very nice peeps. Cue torrential rain and miserable conditions to rain all over my parade Then we’ll go our separate ways. One back to France, one to Blighty and me onto Salobreña

Definitely. It feels completely different here without them. Although he'll being riding straight(ish) down here and I'm riding over to the pyrenees to meet up with a couple of mates to piss about on some mountain roads for a few days first.

Or Honda’s

Well somebody's got to ride bikes in this place Ray!

Be a result to not be Welsh … silly little country it is .

Shame on me is fine with me

Fine by me mate………..I’m retarded/retired anyway

The fact he did have a bike worth keeping, even though it wasn't proving very reliable. Hang on, like many KTMs.

The wife left for Copenhagen for 4 days today so I've been left unsupervised again, i have so many things i want to do without the supervision i don't know where to start LOL
