XTreme Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Saturday is October.....and Sunday is November! So I can't even categorise it this time. As you probably know, they've now put the kybosh on me leaving the immediate town area......and I cannot enter another town. However, depending on the direction I go there's plenty of scope to ride without getting my collar felt. But I'm playing it safe and staying off anything that would be classed as a major road in case the Guardia are patrolling. What a fucking world we're living in now! So what are you lot doing.......or more to the point, what are you allowed to do? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boboneleg Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I've been doing 'sober for october' this month , it's for a good cause , so on Sunday I'll be having a glass of wine with dinner to ease my way back in. https://www.gosober.org.uk/users/bob-chapman I already have some supplies for the following weekend 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Well, let me get the party started No lockdown here, but for now I never really leave the small coastal area I live, so no difference to me. Today will start with knives .... I plan on cutting open and gutting a few unsuspecting pumpkins. Then I get to see if I can fit a new oven (the old one BLEW UP) through the doorway of my cottage like house, should be fun. But wait there's more..... Going to upload my latest video, which will be hard for some of you to watch. There is a lot of RAIN Saturday and Sunday look great for weather, so we are going for a ride into my "backyard" to explore, now that the logging trucks have stopped for the season. I know, I know, when will the fun stop.... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool stuff, though, I used to ride through a few of those on the XR back when in was up north, anc it’s great fun. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 So my job as a temporary veterinarian assistant saw me holding down a dog as he had his butt checked, he didn’t like it one bit as one can assume. But I used the technique I use when I need to hold Costa in the vet and it worked a treat. But today we had a cat with serious skin problems in need of a skin scratch sample and a blood sample. To my horror I was told that I would probably be holding it down, but @Sofiamanaged to do all of it with minimal fuss and I had to do nothing except hold a little bit of cotton to stop the blood after the sample was taken. I was scared shitless through the entire thing and I swear he could see the terror in my eyes when he looked at me while I was holding his paw and was evaluating how many more seconds he would give me before tearing my face to shreds. All was ok and I managed to not be mauled, but this is a very unhappy cat: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
