And that was just a 3 cylinder outboard motor don't ask Bruce how much his cruiser does to the gallon its likely to send him into a depression

The thing my mate had used almost 5 gallons of petrol to do about 16 mile on the way out and then we had to wait for the tide to turn to come back in because we would have run out of fuel going against the tide long before where we set off.

@Bruce Yes i know how speed is totally different on water compared to land. When my dull mate first had a boat i took it out off Penarth towards the Severn bridge there was a little swell there and when i wound it up it felt like i was doing 120 and smashing into the waves i thought it was going to break apart, then there was the debris to avoid floating in the water it was exciting stuff but we were only doing 35 knots

I read that different

What kind of speed will it get up to Bruce

have you drank all that cider

Stop wasting your time teasing Bruce and get on with the new bike report

you tell him @boboneleg Well i picked up what i wanted from our workshop, went up the Merthyr valley and home the Cynon valley and i could have stayed out all day it was 3.5°c but felt a lot warmer a couple of photos for proof

I've got to go to our workshop to pick up some documents for work on Monday, Its cold and wet not very nice out there, now do i take the van or brave the weather and take the opportunity to ride with a legitimate reason What a stupid fucking question see you all later

This reminded me of this, many years ago i was involved with the installation of a small wind turbine to help power some remote containers to transmit telemetry from the elan valley to the control hub 45 miles south as the crow fly's, it was supposed to be a state of the art wind turbine. I was called back up there a few months later as they were having problems with a diesel generator, when i asked how the wind turbine was doing they said it failed in the first two weeks as the propeller blades blew off, they found one of them about half a mile away

Shania is much more of a woman all the bits in the right places for me, you can keep the drummer

I'm looking forward to visiting my regular dogging spot their going to be gagging for it

The biggest problem i can see happening is if they allow any travel the whole country is going to move all at once and everywhere will be heaving which is my worst nightmare so i'm happy to wait it out

I've written off this year again so not making any plans just going to see what happens as the year unfolds

Once I've got to know a few there i shall be asking questions

With the exception of the HSE being there it's like nothing happened. As a company we were shitting ourselves when we heard the news because we had just finished installing a new gas alarm system there

I was in Avonmouth today and had to phone gap tool hire for some things and i thought @boboneleg had changed jobs because the guy on the phone was so much like him but i suppose he could say that about any welsh guy I'll be working on this site for the next week or two https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/avonmouth-explosion-everything-know-after-4763911

I've probably only been to the hairdressers or barbers as us men call them once in the last 20 years and that was because a Turkish one opened up down the road a few years ago and they done the full works, beard ears nose so i went in to check it out and nodded off in the chair proper old man style so i didn't go again

Same here Clive i get the boy to cut it for me probably the only thing he does all week ?

What is it you do in your lovely command center

Considering you didn't give a toss what your hair was like in the 70's judging by your photos you seem overly concerned now how times change

I just sorned the CRF but the dog and the XR are still going just in case i get an hour out. I got the 4 bikes to insure in March got to have it but cant use the bikes bloody annoying

And black pudding you can keep the beans though ?

I was going to say swap the screws for stainless ones then thought why waste your time its not like their ever going to get wet and go rusty

less than 400 miles in 8 months and i'm paying insurance and tax for that ?
