Hi Dizz, Corse or Cosaca, depending on where ur from. Is the large French island in the med. Sort of side ways from palma. But Im on a boat [yep the sig is my dad infront of the "work place"]
I live in Antibes which is between Cannes {film show place} and Monaco {GP type stuff} So work {boat} tends to drive up and down between them. Its a local train ride as well Cannes>Monaco about 25 miles in a line or 60 by road.
So I just need a place park a boat for a few days while I come up. As it can't move with out me, and finding a place to park a 200ft boat is not the easyist thing.
And no I just drive it. Its a bit out of my reach. I do have a 4 ft remote control one which I never use.

I hope its not to sunny when I get there. Im red from to much and the summer hasn't even kicked in. Me thinks its going to be a very very hot this summer.

Anastasia is in my back garden and last week I should have worked on her, but only got a few things sorted, front brakes, alarm and put the carbs on. Other things came up plus I got a new Xbox game, such a silly thing to do, just got so distracted with it!

Now I have to do to get her to the AR is, remove swing arm, fit chain (its in one loop), fit swing arm and exhaust, cut out and fit undertray, tidy electrics, swap tyres for legal ones, fit plastics and strip, clean and rebuild the rear caliper. Plus optional re-spraying of all panels and tank. Once that is done I need to MOT, tax and insure the bike, if not prep Helga for the journey, which means clean and rebuild the rear caliper, change the fork oil and get a MOT.

All this and I havent even checked if the tent is OK and water-proof from the last time I used it. Plus I'm not sure I have enough cash to Tax, MOT and ininsure her, so it might all be a waste of time.
