Worked on Sat,but Sunday off so went to Brands Hatch to watch some racing.No closer racing than seeing three bikes cross the line with 0.03 seconds between them.Still not sure who won.
Spent the evening helping my son fix his SV which has developed a front cylinder misfire(yawn)but it's not a wet plug
Today----Son borrows our other SV for work and I trace short in his wiring loom.

Not a bad weekend in all
You're all too busy on weekends in your country!!! Next weekend, come to Wales and enjoy the s-l-o-w p-a-c-e- o-f l-i-f-e - aaahhhh!!

Hey if ever your down my way, let me know and we can meet up

I guess transporting the stuff to the extreme edge of the UK costs a bit more in petrol

Powerpoint? We don't use them as a rule...more sort of...guidelines actually!!

I spent the weekend working. Well sort of - driving about checking out some travel ideas for work - Tour Products. 10 pnts for anyone that can name the destination and country. It would've been so much more fun on a bike but maybe next time i am back. Lots of twisty roads and mountains about.
