This is the idle banter section after all. I think most of us have lives beyond motorcycling.It’s what makes this forum such an endlessly interesting and varied place to come to.

Not sure its a gripe of the day or a gripe of the year. 10 days ago number 2 daughter got a blinding headache, and within 5 mins was totally blind. Thankfully her vision is slowly returning. She can now sort of focus out to 3 feet She's had a number of MRI's and an optomap scan, all of which are clear.

The doctors, having hit a brick wall, are now suggesting they refer her to another hospital, even though they have the specialties where they are. And even though they are eye specialists, "it could be MS." And, "You should get a referral letter within 2 weeks." I wonder when the appointment will be after that? 4 weeks + waiting for the appointment. ITS NOT AN INGROWING TOE NAIL!!!

That was just the two front wiper blades - the excess for the screen was £115.
I did have a look at their windscreen repair cost for a chip £185!
I guess the cost is higher than going into a garage and getting a chip repair at a centre but £185!

Still in one piece Bib. Thoroughly enjoying Spain's version of Covid rules. Outside your gate without a mask, €100 fine. Get caught again, €300 fine. Argue the toss with the Policia in the street, €3000 fine.

Hope you're ok too...
