Shame you don't live down this way there would be plenty of opportunities for him to let it out.

My Oldest daughter Kady is studying Equine and stable management in her second year. Part of the course is that she spends every 3rd week working in and running Duchy Colleges stables and livery yard. I don't exactly know what it's all about. I have been told but when I hear horse I sort of switch off. I have a horse mad wife and two daughters that are probably worse. Personally I am not keen on the bleddy things and have as little to do with them as possible. What I am going to down at Pentewan is locally known as a Pub Shout. Basically a sing along, I said shanty evening so as not to have to explain, there will be shanties, Cornish songs, folk, maybe even some choir harmony, show tunes what ever anybody wants to do really as long as it sounds good. Normally pretty reasonable quality singing, calling it a Shout is misleading but it is the term used. Happens a lot down here, I was up the local rugby club singing last night as they are trying to get a regular shout going, and as an old player and choir member I have been called along to help out.

I am normally fooked come Monday morning but a good nights sleep Monday night and I am back on track, then I am free until the next Friday.

I don't mind so much, would rather not work nights but I do enjoy my job. If I could get something normal I would but everything in the current job market isn't very attractive.

Well you did ask Friday Shanty singing night down at The Ship Inn, Pentewan tonight, then off to work at Bodmin Hospital on the Urgent Care Car East at 23:00, which sounds fancy but it's not really. We do get to be out most of the night and are in proximity to Maccy's Fraddon that gives us free coffee. Saturday Finish at 08:00, hopefully, then home to sleep, back on shift at 22:00 on Urgent Care Car East rinse and repeat Sunday Finish at 08:00 home to sleep, then get my daughter up to Stoke Climsland for 18:00 to start her residential week at Duchy College, then home. Back to work at 22:00 to 08:00 at Launceston Hospital driving Launceston Area Car. Nothing very exciting, I get to commute on my bike Saturday and Sunday.

They do, they have had them for years. I remember the naked one from the time they were at Whitemoor.

FFS, definitely not the sharpest tool

Found series 10 on ITV Hub as well. enjoying re binge watching it.

I have, I think that Henry chap is a bit of a Tit but the show is ok.

Yes without doubt the original is a work of art. But if you or I did own one it wouldn't get ridden much for various reasons, if you had a new one though it would be silly not to ride it

It is nice, not sure I like the radiator, but on the whole a lovely looking bit of kit.

They always have decent stock there, I didn't snap the half of it just what interested me. They did have a couple of Africa twins that looked great but I couldn't have one so they don't hold my interest much. They had a Kawasaki W800 there but I was disappointed with it in the flesh, as that is my sort of bike normally. I did like the R Nine T though I could see myself on that if I had a spare 9K hanging around and a garage to put it in. Top Boxes, Meh, water off a ducks back mate

Had a productive morning, won't mention the house work part least you see the thumb print, after that got the top box fitted to the Himalayan. I am not sure if I can live with it yet, fits fine just part of me sees it as a hideous carbuncle rather than useful storage. Price was obviously right as I bought it 12 years ago and it wasn't a premium purchase (read cheapest I could find) back then. Then went out for a bimble up To Damerells to look at the pretty shiny. I am guessing they have just had a RE delivery as there was loads in the showroom. I saw a really lovely Beemer that tickled my fancy plus a new Z900 that wasn't too shabby. Saw a nice looking Harley as well but how many letter do you need to describe it . To lovely old CBX's on display there although well up out of reach.

No I never saw one in the flesh.

To be honest I seriously considered buying a CB500X. Good bike and I am partial to a Honda.

Anyone remember these being advertised back in the day? I remember them coming on the market when the 125 learner laws came in so that people could still ride their 250's on L plates. I flirted with the idea of getting one to put on my XS750 so that I could ride it on L plates as I had it before I passed my test. The insurance quote killed that idea. Plus it was just easy to pass the test back then (1984).

That sort of talk is the route straight to the dog house for me.
