Was it 2000 when there was an HGV strike? I seem to remember that didn't end well either!

Apparently the same engine as your bike, @XTreme. http://vogefrance.fr/voge-650dsx/

RHA executive criticised In particular, one of their executives, Rod McKenzie, comes in for criticism. He is a man who would naturally draw the suspicions of the government, since once long ago he worked with the BBC. McKenzie is accused of ‘selectively leaking’ remarks made in a private meeting with oil company leaders. In a chilling hint of the panic and rage inside government and a warning of what may be to come, a senior government source is quoted as saying: “McKenzie is just a moaning Remainer and he and the RHA are entirely responsible for this panic and chaos. We will deal with them when this is over.”

I saw that a government minister has said that they're going to "sort out" the RHA once the current crisis is over........I can see that ending well!

Gratuitous shot of swimming in a Cenote in Mexico.

The Delta variant is the predominant one here too, but we're not seeing the same increases in new infections as the UK. Mainly a different vaccine and no "Freedom day" here?

I wasn't suggesting that you are one of them, mate, but some of those ranting about it on Facebook must be. Someone is now suggesting that it's the fuel companies and government trying to boost revenues after all the lockdowns!

I saw that someone on Facebook was having a go at all the fuel panic buyers (remoaners, apparently) and finished his rant with a comment that he could only squeeze £20 of fuel into his car! With all those taking the moral high-ground I'd be interested to know who all the panic buyers are?

I guess that having 12+ year old kids vaccinated here is having an effect. I see younger kids walking down the road to school in the morning and they've all got masks on. Interestingly, my eldest so told me that my ex has gone down with Covid (double vaccinated) in the last week or so, she works in a school. So, make of that what you will!

It's interesting that the rate has dropped dramatically since most of the holidaymakers here have fucked off! And there's not been any spike yet since the schools have gone back.

We've got 55.9 / 100000 in our department and 58.7 / 100000 nationally.

Nice bit of photoshop, Bob. Have you considered a career change?

Before anyone says about the topbox, I was on the way home from a shopping trip!

Oh, yeah, I forgot that important performance modification!

Same here, Pete.

This thread is getting too serious.......time to drag it back into the gutter!

Are people still wearing masks there, Pete?
