XTreme Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Finally......things are changing for the better! But the wife has announced that we've got to go to the fucking Garden Centre in Caniles tomorrow! Should be all clear on Sunday though! So what you got planned? Ride reports are desperately needed or we're going to look like a bunch of casuals who spend all their time gardening! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's extracting himself from things now other family can be put in the frame but he's not completely out. The kitchen fitters are looking at the flat next Thursday and he's been offered tickets to go and see Tenacious D on the Friday which would be shame to miss out on for the sake of one more day. If all that goes to plan and everything else stays settled (please god) then flight straight after We'll see. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap stuff I throw away as soon as possible, there is nothing much in there nowdays, since the Boxing night thieves stole most of the tools. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's going to end up living on a caravan site with the likes of Big John Fury. They could probably get him a gig on the Waltzers if he played his cards right. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catteeclan Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I've just come back from watching a mate playing lead guitar in a steely dan tribute gig. Was pretty good but my ears are ringing a bit. Only to walk in on the misses, 3 parts pissed blasting out Les Mis louder than what I've been listening to. I just tried to point out the time and she just said, "don't care". Think I might get a word or two off the neighbours tomorrow. Tomorrow I should be collecting some patio furniture for younger son and watching the sprint race in the afternoon. That is all. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earache Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Riding moto support for the Ironman race in Boulder, CO tomorrow. Just got back from our pre-race briefing. Apparently a moto got tangled up with a bicycle in last week's race in Germany. Rider was killed. So they're being super critical of the moto's right now. See video below. Pretty good gig though - paying us $175 per moto for about 3 hours work. After Saturday's race, I'll be marshalling a 6 day ride across Colorado beginning on Sunday. Only $150 a day for that but should be fun. Wifey snagged me a free room in Boulder, too ! 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I followed cycling it was a shock to see how little slow control the motorcyclists had and I did wonder if they were worth the risk! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 I went to the supermarket yesterday which turned into a bit of a pita cos they’ve closed the road I take and I ended up on a massive detour Then due to my long circuitous route I needed fuel asap and although I’ve seemlessly navigated a million fuel stops in France and Spain I could not make the pump work. It was bloody Fish Friday so the supermarket and fuel station was heaving, me and my British number plate caused a blockage for quite some time while kiosk people had to come out and help.. twice! Turns out if you tap the ‘full tank’ option on the prepay screen it does not work, you have to select £100 or under. Sometimes Lo siento just doesn’t cover it! I dragged my red faced self around the supermarket hoping all the people queuing watching me Frank Spencer fuelling up weren’t in the supermarket when I came across this- Spain has made a wine just for me Can’t remember the last time I had an alcoholic beverage so this morning my head really hurts! This was on display in the supermarket, better than most supermarket promotions! Not worth drinking 0% beer to enter though! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saul Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Went to Royal Cornwall show yesterday with the Mrs and my daughters. Hell for me but horsey for them. I was lucky though as I met up with a load of mates from my old choir (Loveny) who were singing on one of the events stages closely followed by my favourite local band called The Countrymen. So that redeemed the day for me. Saturday I am singing with my choir up in England in a beautiful little Esturary village called Noss Mayo. Gotta solo to sing as well as singing the feature part in a couple of songs. Weird having 40 backing singers but should be fine. Sunday I hope to be out early for a biking bimble and My last overnight shift with the 111 service. Be glad for a Kip on Monday. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
