  1. Went out for a bimble today and was going to go up on Bodmin moor but the weather was pretty awful and so misty you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face. So I decided to abort and go into Trago and have a look at their biking section. They only had one on display which was a 445cc SWM branded dirt style bike. I liked the look of it to be honest. Weird branding though as it was labeled a 500cc but called a 6, bit of mixed message there. I did think it looked cool. Water cooled 154kg and claimed 29.5 bhp for £4.5k. Doesn’t seem to bad but it’s all about quality I suppose. If a jap manufacturer produced something like that it would sell by the boat load. There was plenty of biking gear and accessories at Trago, if I had a top box I would probably have spent a few quid. Travelling back along the Glynn valley in atrocious conditions it did make me wonder what I was doing there as that stretch of road is a notorious black spot for accidents.
  2. I am going up on Bodmin Moor this morning, getting stir crazy. Did pretty much the same yesterday as I had to activate a card and went to the branch to do it just to get out of the house.
  3. Blue Light on BBC iplayer. Started slow but got very good. Just finished it, well worth a watch. Also on iplayer. Beyond Paradise, load of wash over tosh but entertaining. Also filmed in several locations around here. Supposedly based in Devon but all I have spotted is pretty close to where I live.
  4. Yeah the Honda will probably be the end of me, especially if I believe my Mrs
  5. Just been on a teams meeting for work, that's two hours gone forever. We are getting a 19% pay rise. Feel a bit deflated though as they are planning to implement changes to our working environment that doesn't bode well on many levels. Time to start looking for something else, but I don't know how much demand there is for a doddery old cunt in the current work climate.
  6. Nobody wants to be a doddery old cunt but unless you shuffle off this mortal coil its coming. Just out of interest how old are you now that you have given up playing. I made it to 42 before I got to brittle. I'm 58 in 6 months, I am sorting of hoping I make it past 59 although I know there are no guarantees. If for no other reason to get some use out of my Honda.
  7. Your time will come.
  8. Fucking feels like that at the moment, my Mrs offered to get me a stick to use, I told her the only need I had for a stick was to throw at her. Piss taking cow.
  9. We Are Not Alone, tv movie but kept me entertained for 91 minutes.
  10. I know mate, I thought when I felt my leg crack I had, but luckily for me it wasn’t that bad. Getting old and brittle sucks.
  11. I can't fucking believe it I managed to fall over again the second time in less than a week. I fell down steps on Monday, last night I fell over in the carpark at work. Slipped on a mud in the dark and went down doing the splits. I felt a crack in my leg and now I have pulled my hamstring. I'm fucking falling to pieces. Got sent home because it was to painful to drive for the next 10 hours. Luckily I work with medics so mine last night sorted me out. Now I am a clumsy cunt I will admit but twice in a week is more than that so those fucking Clarkes shoes are going in the bin. Slippery bastards. Frustrating as I am going to be laid up for my rest days and can't do what I do normally. Now on painkillers, and my leg is glowing with Ibuprofen gel and deep heat. Stinking I will resist spamming this place although I have fuck all else I can do.
  12. My Eldest daughter is 18 today. She is not even going out as she has the flu. Never mind she has a bottle of Malibu to ease the symptoms.
  13. Going on the bike or going back ?
  14. I bet he doesn't live there anymore. I think I went there in 2005, perhaps it has gone upmarket since then.
  15. I did like them too until I looked closer, they are zipped with no locks and £500 with frames. Shame as they could have been so much better.
  16. Took my mate to Damerells and Thors today to look for his fourth bike that he won’t ride when it’s wet. Didn’t bother taking any photos at Thors but took a few at Damerells. I did notice that my Himalayan was in the sold line.

    I think they went to document events more than anything.
  18. Do you know what I think that is spot on. Lost his grasp on reality again.
  19. Years ago I remember going to Knowle West with a mate of mine who lived in Patchway to look at a car, fuck me that was a culture shock.
  20. I remember reading Lenny McCleans book, it didn't paint him in a very positive light. Sounded like a right horrible bully. As to Fury he just lost almost all the credibility he had by all this bulshit with Usyk. Sad really.
  21. Yep always, thought about getting a cover.
