Beta Bum Boys back for sloppy seconds!

Great stuff. Dont fancy the mud in that first pic much! -
A list of garages selling E5 according to the sun newspaper so it could well be rubbish, dont know why theyve stuck Asda on there just to say they dont sell it but hey at least you know not to bother stopping there. Shell From today, Shell V-Power will be the company's "protection grade" fuel - meaning it will remain as E5. It will be available to the "vast majority" of Shell's around 1,000 UK forecourts. Shell FuelSave will be the garage's E10 petrol and the fuel pumps will be labelled with stickers. Customers might also notice government leaflets and posters will be on display at Shell forecourts. You can check which forecourts provide E5 petrol by using Shell's site locator. BP E10 will be the standard grade of petrol at BP's retail sites across the UK, and be labelled as such. But E5 will remain available at BP sites that carry two grades of petrol. This is the "great majority" of BP garages, the firm said. BP's Premium Ultimate grade will continue to be E5, and will have stickers informing customers. BP has an online search tool to allow you to find your nearest garage. Esso Around 200 of Esso's 1,200 branded service stations in the UK will no longer sell E5 petrol. The remaining 1,000 sites will continue to sell E5 as Synergy Supreme+ 99 premium petrol. A spokesperson for the forecourt operator said much of the Supreme+ 99 contains no ethanol at all. The only exceptions are in Devon, Cornwall, North Wales, North England and Scotland "where for technical supply reasons our premium petrol may contain up to 5% ethanol". The spokesperson said: "Legislation requires us to place E5 labels on pumps that dispense unleaded petrol with ‘up to 5% ethanol’, including those that contain no ethanol. "That is why we display E5 labels on all of our Synergy Supreme+ 99 pumps even though many don’t contain any ethanol at all." You can find a list of Esso petrol stations online. Texaco At Texaco garages, E10 petrol will be called Texaco 95 Octane Premium Unleaded. E5 will continue to be available at many forecourts in Texaco Supreme Unleaded, the company said in its guidance to customers. Petrol will be clearly labelled as either E10 or E5 to avoid confusion. You can find your nearest Texaco petrol station online. Sainsbury's Sainsbury's also said that most of its more than 300 sites will continue to sell E5. A spokesperson for the supermarket told The Sun: "We will keep customers updated and all pumps will be clearly labelled to help customers make informed decisions about the fuel that they buy." You can search for your nearest Sainsbury's petrol station online. Tesco Tesco will offer E5 petrol at around 90% of its 600 garages. That means there will be approximately 60 Tesco forecourts that do not offer the fuel from September 1. Drivers can find their closest Tesco petrol station online. Asda None of Asda's 320 forecourts will offer E5 petrol, the supermarket confirmed to The Sun. That means the 600,000 drivers who are unable to use E10 will not be able to fill up at Asda's garages. You can find a list of Asda forecourts here.

Ah yes you’d get on with Mr Slowly, they gave him morphine and then rang me at 10pm saying he was “in need of speaking to me” Utterly off his tits, totally detached from our normal shared reality. Hilarious.

Sent that vid to my Pa, he said- Yust I’ve seen it. If you ask me it’ll be a big disappointment if you’re used to modern mobikes. I didn’t rate it at the time. It’s just a big thumper under powered lump. BSA tried to cash in by making a cheap version of the Manx Norton. Which would piss all over it once you mastered the close ratio gearbox (not easy peasy) I say what’s that then? He replied- For expert experienced yobbos only. By the time you’ve got the clutch in it’s doing 30mph. And a bonneville is lapping you! Great on a circuit shite on the street. So what is this close ratio gearbox he speaks of?

Constipation is a well known side effect of morphine. It thought now that stoppering yourself up and keeping whatever your body is trying hard to eject as quickly as possible isnt the best idea and you should just drink electrolytes (not the sugary variety) an let nature finish what its trying to do.

No Id buggered off for about a year n a half after Speedy left. Just wasnt enjoying it, some nice people on there and some who were always angry, got a bit tiresome.
-
Yep My mum used to threaten us with milk of magnesia, that stuff nearly always induced a miraculous recovery, miraculous because you’d swear you were better just from seeing the bottle.
-
Yer Kaolin and Morphine. They stopped selling it over the counter cos it would separate and desperate junkies would supposedly buy it for the sliver of morphine it contained and as no-one gets a script for that it killed it off. Heyho.

Had my booster today which is good because Spain want a minimum of two weeks from your second vaccination and I can imagine the hassle at the airport when your booster isnt two weeks gone! Had the flu jab at the same time in the opposite arm. The flu arm is fine the Covid arm feels like lead. Got asked how old I was cos she didn’t think I was old enough for the group I was booked in with, how nice and amazing what sunglasses a mask and can do for your ego

Doubt it I would have remembered you if you were about at the time!
