Re: Bohemian Trumpsody

That was entertaining. I had a look in the comments for that one, expecting a lot of grief from the MAGA support base. Oddly little to none in there.

Personally I find him a repugnant human being...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

It took me flippin ages on Sunday morning stood in the carpark outside Sportsbikeshop in Milton Keynes trying to remember how to get into the settings menu on Bullseye. Got there in the end but what...

Re: Possible ride this Thursday

Much as I'd love to, I'm at work all week getting ready for month end.

Re: The All New Megathread

Wet here today too from mid-morning. Thankfully DPD still deliver in the rain and the new lid I ordered at lunchtime yesterday arrived at Trev Towers at 11 today. Much to Lady Poppy's amusement I...

Re: The All New Megathread

Hopefully the Alpinestars textile trousers Lady Poppy has promised me for my birthday will also rotate into their 35% off category soon. It will be nice to have some strides that let me do up the top...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

It's not unpleasant, I agree. Every time I pop into the garage I get a whiff of it so I'm getting used to it now.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Not sure if any of my neighbours saw it but I had to smile at the clouds of smoke coming off Bullseye when I started him up today far a ride out. I had no idea ACF50 would do that to such an extent....

Re: The All New Megathread

Lovely day here at Trev Towers so decided to make the most of it and ride to the garden centre instead of driving. Need some more Jeyes Fluid. Was munching my breakfast toast first though, as you do,...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

The Wizard of Oz is on, and Lady Poppy is watching it as she's bafflingly never seen it before! Now I've had a few (cough) shots of Famous Grouse I'm quite enjoying it too.

We're off to see The...

Re: Bosch washing machine

Do you have a reliable indie repair engineer you could try? One of my neighbours runs his own company fixing white goods, but then you're probably a bit off his patch...

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?

My dad was told he was more likely to die WITH it than OF it, but his PSA is now in the hundreds, his last scan showed it rapidly spreading and he's wasting away fast. He's had over a decade to get...

GWS to both of you Gary. I've got a bit of a sniffle coming on after a few very tiring days on the road with work combined with a trip to see my parents before getting home late yesterday. Hopefully...

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?

I had to argue with a "nurse practitioner" or some sort of not-quite-a-doctor to have my last PSA test. Bafflingly, a mate of Lady Poppy's was a receptionist at a neighbouring surgery to ours and...

Re: The All New Megathread

I feel utterly cream crackered. However, both cars are now washed, dried, and hand waxed ready for the rubbish weather.

Bullseye was also treated to a wash yesterday, his first ever since purchase...

Re: Rideout - Meet in the middle 2025

As I'm a bit pathetic these days, and my camping days are way behind me, can I suggest we have at least an option for more substantial sleeping arrangements? I really should warn you all too that I...

Re: When I'm 64: my Gen 3 SV after 64,000 miles

Always good to hear accounts like this, especially when they prove perceived wisdom wrong on things like mileage and reliability. I too changed the oil meticulously on my GSX250 back in the day and...

We had a bit of frost here last night. Good job I took the pumpkins in yesterday. Now it's warmed up a bit I'll head down the path to the greenhouse and see how the last of the tomatoes are doing....

First of four days off - yay!

Weather was pants first thing so wandered into town to drop off some dry cleaning and look for some new base layers. My old "bamboo" ones are worn through at the knee...

Re: "surprise" flyover by Lancaster

Nice. I was looking forward to seeing the BOBMF Lancaster in Wycombe a few years ago, as it was due to fly over as part of the RAF exercising their right to march through the town. Got talking to one...

Our customer decided to ask us for our 25/6 budgets early with just two weeks notice, so I've been swamped today and missed the nice weather. Looks good for tomorrow so it's a toss up between a run...

Re: Rideout - Meet in the middle 2025

That would be nice. If we could avoid the first week of whichever month suits everyone best it's less likely to clash with my busy time at work.
