Sunday, go to get bike, get there to find it is spotless, engine been treated to protect from winter salt. She looks like new, ride her home, it p1sses down, by the time im home its bloody filthy agian.
Monday night shower breaks, have to order a new one, ooo another £160 out my pocket, nice….
Tuesday, go to a doctors for a previous appointment, get to clinic, look down, rear tyres flat (could feel it going down en route). New rear rubber, “oh they don’t do the 020 anymore” so I need to get an 021. Another £113.
Plus my friends just got me a ticket for the Emirates stadium (arsenal), another, £40.
This week is not a good week for my finances.
Just imagine what it could have been if good old pater didn’t work on the bike and I’d have had it done by a mainstream dealer…!! OWWWW
Donations for my poor fund welcome.
