Skippy

Outline plan is to meet up in Zaragoza at the end of May with three mates from the UK. We’ll make it up as we go! Plenty of days out and I suppose I’ll have to hold @XTreme’s hand so he doesn’t get mugged by some ruin-dwellers.

Is that supposed to cheer me up?

At home, nursing a brandy and a sore back…….went out on the mountain bike today for a spin and somehow I’ve pulled a fucking muscle. The missus and our two dogs are all asleep so I’m Billy No Mates.

Shagging? Wanking? Are they considered to be physically stressful……….probably not at your age.

2023 has been a bit of a mixture really, on the bike front it was a fucking disaster with that DR600S but the Tracer 700 proved to be a decent bike but sadly didn’t stir the soul. Bought the FZ6N as a stop gap and it’s turned out to be a whole lot of fun for not much money. My dad has slowly deteriorated this year and his demeanour is changeable. One minute he’s quite aware and with it, the next he’s vague. He gets angry very easily and some of the stuff he comes out with makes me cringe………I dread to think what would happen if he repeated it in public. I know he resents me moving to Spain and he feels like I’ve abandoned him………he does his best to make me feel guilty but I do my best to ignore it. My missus has suffered badly from the menopause and that’s put a strain on our relationship but it’s ’for better or worse’ as they say.

That’s a massive improvement

Maybe @JustaPor could help a bit more and turn the BMW into a KTM to give you a better chance of winning?

Out on the bike tomorrow so I may get a better one………photo that is

Boxing Day for me?…………. same as yesterday, proper fuck all apart from a change of chef for the day……my turn now so it’s chicken wrapped in pancetta, cauliflower cheese and bubble and squeak (that last one may confuse the non-Brits )

Cheers Pete, same to you and see you in the new year.

I assume you’re referring to the crisps rather than the shirt?

You’d better harden up the suspension on the Honda to take extra unsprung weight you fat fucker……….. oh and Merry Christmas

Yes……… but ‘twat’ isn’t

I blame Pedro, his explanation of the rules was too long……..anything more than a single sentence overwhelms me.

Damn I’ve been rumbled

That’ll be the winner then Bob…………you’ve fucked up the competition now

Table is set outside courtesy of the missus!

Made a stem ginger syrup cheesecake with chocolate grated over the top and, a rum and ginger syrup to be drizzled over the top for tomorrow’s desert as my missus doesn’t really like Christmas Pudding (I do but can’t complain as she’s made me loads of mince pies). Can’t show you a photo as I’ve popped out to pick up a takeaway curry and I’m in the pub while they cook it. MERRY XMAS YOU BUNCH OF REPROBATES!

Probably not, the fluids probably belong to someone else.

Been stacking our log delivery this morning whilst Julie preps the food for Xmas day …………. all it then takes is to cook the turkey and finish the rest in a hot oven on the big day. No piss poor planning here. Playing golf tomorrow so made sure I was ready for that………cleaned the clubs and put a few extra balls in the bag (gonna need em) ️. Topped up the hydraulic brake fluid on my mountain bike ready for a post Xmas Day spin to work off the turkey, mince pies and alcohol. Went to the pub for a quick beer with my reprobate friends…….they’re still there I bet! ………….and now relaxing with a glass of

That’s true that is.

That has to be the most boring post you’ve ever made……..it’s a new low

I feel I’m missing out here so I’ve made my mind up to lower the tone of this forum (if that’s possible) at every opportunity next year in the vain hope I can be more of a cunt/twat than anyone else. A tall order I think but worth the effort to win something.
