  1. I usually like the Silkolene stuff but don't mind the Banana branded stuff either. Looks like Amazon is going to be the way.
  2. Must admit whenever we get a coffee at work the clinician is always in the chair to pay, but to be fair they do earn 4 x what I do. I don't take the piss but that's just how it is with Kernow Health.
  3. You do need an icloud account to use most stuff which is free but if you want to purchase apps and use apple pay you do have to register a card. I have never had an issue though all secure, no different to Internet banking. I have spent an hour getting Spotify and sms texts to work on this fucking Andriod. I have got there now but it was way harder than need be.
  4. Cooling off after a round trip to Costa with my youngest. Most expensive chain lube I didn’t get. Only popped out for lube but they never had any so then the Costa monkey was in want. To be fair she is good company but it always seems to cost me.
  5. Its Apple Music now but I don't use it, I did but much prefer Spotify.
  6. You won't covert me I am afraid I have been using Apple stuff since 2006 too old to change now. Thing is I still have my Mac Book Pro from 2006 and it still works as it should. It's good quality stuff that just works, with the exception for the fucking Honda Roadsync App and that is down to Apple being twats about the Codecs or so I have been told.
  7. I personally I just don’t like them, it was a dark day at work when they replaced our iPhones with Samsung so I have had to adapt.
  8. I was just sick in my mouth reading that, but won’t rant I know not everyone sees the light
  9. Because Apple doesn’t play nicely with the Honda Roadsync App I haven’t been able to properly use the connectivity on my Hornet. It won’t let me use Spotify or Google Maps which pisses me off. I like things to work. Anyway I’m invested in iPhones and Apple, I know it is a choice but I don’t like the Android interface. Anyway to stubborn to give in and not use the bikes tech I have bought a cheapie Samsung to use exclusively with my bike. Before anyone asks I have always had two phones, one for work and my own. To be honest for £99 it works pretty well, the only thing it can’t do is digital pay but that’s not a problem for me. Now have to spend a couple of hours pairing it to the bike and my helmet coms. If anyone is the slightest bit interested it is a Samsung A05s.
  10. Well it's pissing down here, I have work tonight and Sunday night but not much else planned. Still crippled from all the gardening this week but will be back at it as soon as it dries up. Probably do something old fashioned like watch the telly with my Mrs.
  11. Do you think his hernia will let him lift it onto the stand?
  12. Just a weird thing all around. Only Suzuki could put that atom bomb of and engine in a bike and fuck it up. Just looks so weird, no wonder I have never seen one before, obviously not a massive sales success.
  13. Never heard of that before, off to do some Googling
  14. Just been out for a couple of hours with the youngest for a bimble around. She wanted to go out on the bike and I’m knackered from a week in the garden so I was easily persuaded. I asked her what she fancied doing and she said ‘sausage sandwich’ so we headed up to Liskeard as she hasn’t been to Checkered Flag before. Tis only 20 miles with some nice twisties on the way which was a bit of a bust in the end due to traffic but we were out all the same. Opened the bike out a bit on Liskeard bypass, the Hornet seems to be getting quicker, whether it is my confidence the 99 Ron fuel or just the placebo effect but it seems to be flying. Luckily I backed right off after a couple of miles just as I passed a copper in a layby waiting for fuck wits. Chloe fed and had her orange hot chocolate, she did say that it was good but Damerells was better. We then went out to see what they had for sale. Possibly the roughest AT I have ever seen in the flesh. Really tidy little Honda CL but 38k on the clock. Some more old stuff Couple of 125s. One was a Derby, chinky? An Aprilla and weird looking Suzuki, I have no idea never seen one before Really most of what they had there was a load of old tat, doesn’t inspire confidence in the place. Oh and as aside I picked up a free bikers bible, as I thought it was a local guide to dealers and that sort of info. Took it out my pocket when I got home and to my surprise it was a real bible. Didn’t expect that.
  15. It's only one and not that difficult to fit on a CB500F/X. Even Pete with his noodle arms should be able to do that
  16. Or trailers, that's lorries that is
  17. I get the feeling mine has passed the point of saving. It was originally all hardwood, but I can't prove that as it was a gift to my Mrs from her brother. Typical of that prick to give my Mrs something that meant work for me.
  18. He could have made it less Trumpy though.
