Absolutely, full blast most of the year, wot can I say?!

What can one say apart from.. I’m washing my hair? Thanks @Tango not heard that one for a while

All good, honestly the predicted “moderate to rough” crossing was like being rocked in a cradle.. if babies can drink a bottle of Chablis or two before being rocked

Afternoon guys n gals Quick update cos its on my mind Ive not updated you mingers losers proper write up later. Made it to Santander yesterday afternoon to lovely sunshine. Stripped off everything possible to discover dimbo here didnt think about altitude.. ffffreezing On our way to Valdepeñas now and sod the scenic route, the fastest route to the warmth is in order Stopped for a coffee to warm my hands (my first coffee for years, it smells so nice and tastes so gross!) cos they dont serve tea, honestly wot weirdos! The roads are clear n smooth, couldnt be happier… cud b warmer tho

Not fancying it at the moment so any help appreciated

Blimey O’reilly! Took me a minute to acknowledge he’s riding at that speed and they’d not just sped up the footage

Looking dicey on the ferry front tomoz, theyve not cancelled yet but the red gale force warning areas are creeping down the left side of the country and Plymouth is now “moderate, occasionally rough” which sounds like a lot of people I know Anyone with a connection to any deity put a word in wuddya?

I didna dare say that

Because pointing out the perceived flaws of other countries is a national pastime whatever country you’re in, an exercise in self preening superiority. Plus child massacre upsets people wherever it happens. Sorry Tym @Mawsleys post made me laugh a lot, maybe give it more than a second

We live in hope! Depends on the forecast whether the ferry runs or not and its not looking delightful at the moment!

My son is coming back from uni for a weekend. The sudden purchasing of ingredients for recipes I know he loves and a strong desire to cry leads me to believe I may have missed him a lot more than Ive acknowledged So definitely lots of cooking and laughter for me and a bit of reloading the bikes for the ferry on Sunday Looks like itll be nice weather.. for ducks!

That explains the trash talking skills

They did what?!!

What bliss and the complete opposite of my experience I returned to my accommodation that morning to a steady stream of people wanting to come into my room because a couple of years earlier Id made the maintenance guy a cup of coffee and in return he volunteered to hook my tv to the main aerial on the top of a block of flats so I was the only one with a decent tv reception, everyone else had varying amounts of snow and hiss. I was never a Lady Di fan. It was the most excruciating two days worth of people watching my tv, crying and not leaving. The ridiculousness of the hysteria was being played out on repeat in my bedroom ad nauseum. I left them my room keys and drove over 100miles to get away from it ps When I got back they had found my snack drawer and eaten the flipping lot. Remembered to clean it out before I did a bunk on the day of her funeral!

These stats make for some pretty somber reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rider_deaths_in_motorcycle_racing

Woah Now thats as dark as it gets

I hope not for their sakes

Yep theyve been reporting a nasty cold doing the rounds on the news, my son has it. Cant help but wonder if its just a normal cold and its badly effecting people because the old immune system is depleted after a year and half of very reduced contact.

My only concern about continuing measures to reduce infection are they reduce all infections. If we continue to avoid all stimulation of the immune system its not going to take much of a knock out punch to make people ill.

When Princess Di died it was the night of our graduation ball (old style uni graduation not the new American style school graduation thats here now) Id not long gone to sleep when someone started battering my hotel door, I opened it to a loud and panicked announcement “PRINCESS DI IS DEAD” A bit miffed at being woken up I replied “Well she’ll still be dead in the morning then wont she” and shut the door and went back to sleep

Id just had a baby, it was a few weeks old and Mr Slowly rang and said turn on the telly, I looked at the screen and down at my new baby and said “NO there cant be a war, Ive just had a baby”

Which ones?

Ive heard the all in one theory but been told it must be separate. Googled it, couldn’t find a satisfactory answer or an ‘all in one’ light n reflector so who knows.

I thought it would be entertaining stories about annoying cunts, preferably ones that get their comeuppance, like the villains in films always do!
