Had my 3rd booster on the 12th , flu one booked for the 19th

Only about three years, I started with Kernow Health the Christmas before Covid, which was lucky as I self employed gardener before and that sort of work died instantly with the lockdowns.
-
We do carry Controlled Drugs and script pads so there is potential. Of course I am joking, in case my boss were ever to see this. The accounting procedures for CD's are tighter than a ducks backside for very good reason.

I am a driver/receptionist for the out of hours Doctor service (Kernow Health). When you ring 111 I am the Bod that gets the Dr to you with the right kit and drugs. I mainly work out of Launceston Hospital, but do also cover Stratton, Bodmin, Liskeard and St Austell. Typical NHS job very interesting and rewarding but pays Peanuts.
-
Not much happening for me,I work Nights and weekends. So off to Launceston Hospital Friday, Saturday, Sunday night. Not moaning good place to work. I am hoping to use the bike for the commute although I am not keen on pissing rain in the dark so we will have to see.

Yes Dameralls has been going for years. They used to be at Whitemoor but have moved to a bigger place out near Indian Queens now. I'll. take some pics next time I am there, it's a cool place. Always been a bit spendy there but you can get some good deals if you are prepared to wait. I do like that I get 10% discount on everything because I bought a bike there. They always have really good selection of bikes in their huge showroom. One little moan is that their workshop is always overbooked so it's never quick to get your bike in.
-
Anyone got any experience with one of these? I impulse bought it a couple of weeks ago and haven't got around to fitting it yet.
-
I remember those Kangols they made people look like they were Saltarens from Dr Who.
-
Thor is the only one local that doesn't have a cafe attached or on site here. Dameralls where my bike came from have a great burger bar attached and it is always busy. Makes the Dealership more of a ride destination if you can chill and have a drink or whatever.

It's the first time I have seen a Mash in the flesh, looked bloody smart to me. I have read about poor quality cycle parts on them though, weather that is still relevant I don't know. I went up there today as they are going to be selling the new BSA Goldstar and wondered if they had one on show to look at, but they aren't getting them until November the 1st. Had a good look at some Shoei helmets and they looked stunning.
-
Yeah they do pack them in pretty tight, similar thing up at North Cornwall Motorcycles to. I would hate to see the results if one of those Indians went over, must have been 30 of them in the showroom. Very expensive set of dominoes. I have often wondered about their dealership as they all sorts there. They have a real good selection of Helmets and clothing as well as bikes. Good shop with a good reputation though. I seem to remember when they opened they were just Norton and Indian. Just classic Nortons in the showroom now. I was very tempted by a Benelli 400 Imperale before I got the Himalayan, but ultimately went with what I thought would be more rugged and reliable for everyday use and commuting. From memory I think they are dealers for Indian, Fantic, Morini, Benelli, Beta, Reijue (sp), CF Moto, Zontes, Mutt and Mash.
-
I had a couple of hours to spare this morning so I thought I would pop along to my closest to look at the pretty things. Got chatting to chap who was having his bike serviced there who wanted to know about the Himalayan as he has a new RE Classic 350 bought from the same dealer as me. I had a good long look at what I couldn't afford, wished Thor had a coffee shop then came home. I would like to have gone further but still feeling a bit ropey from the Covid jab yesterday. Nevermind was a good day for a Bimble in the sunshine.
-
I love that, you would need a bike to match though. R100C or Jota or Guzzi
-
Thats what I had Black and Gold trim Clubman, cool as, I thought
-
II haven't seen a Bell in the flesh for years I just remember they were good. I had a Griffin many years ago and loved that both in looks and comfort. I do like the look of Schuberths but they are spendy, perhaps when I have recovered from buying the bike but I am in no hurry I am happy with what I have got for now.
-
I have the Better Call Saul T-Shirt that was given to me by one of my customers when I was self employed.
-
I have a new Royal Enfield branded full face which is comfy and quiet, I am guessing middle of the road for quality but I like it. I have a new cheaper open face which is fine but noisy. I quite fancy a Bell, but I had a Caberg flip back in the day and I liked that.
-
I did warn you there would be daft questions
-
Knowing him he wouldn't mind a bit of Robin hood cosplay
-
That one is probably pushing 20 so time to go I think.
-
I am working on it, but 18 year olds know everything and believe they are made of teflon. He has some proper boots but wont wear them.
-
Yeah stents done, lot fitter and smaller. Plus consuming much less crap.
-
I offered it to my boy for his twist and go 125 but he wasn't interested. Before you say, yes Dad did buy him a new helmet, decent riding jacket and leggings. I am still working on him to wear some decent foot. ware.
-
True dat. Part of the reason I decided to go back to biking now was that I felt if I didn't do it soon I never would. I had a health scare last year and that put a few things into perspective.
