    That's a bit keen. I've put my back out but luckily got 3 rides in during the week just gone to keep me going till I'm capable of not looking like an old man when trying to get out of a seat. Coffee has been consumed, got some bits n pieces done while wifey and stropchild are out. Might get something involving fried pig and egg for lunch so things are looking up.

    In other news I've given up trying to sell the bruiser as no ****er wants it unless I give it away so it's staying as a spare in case the Panzer is out of action at some point. Crafty N+1 as well 8)

    It's sunny, I missed my ride this morning (7.15 start time and I got it and like 3 or something) so now I'll just go the golf and wait until it rains to cycle again

    No, I can guarantee his tiling won't be as good as mine.

    did a scrappy 88km, could've been more but the roads became infested with suicide pedestrians, twuntish rljers and sunday drivers, decided to give up and veg out the rest of the day

    logged into megacorp to check my diary for tomorrow, blocked it out for an early afternoon departure to go wining/dining sungodess

    You're going to tidy the loft in this heat :shock:

    Sea Sunday today so been to church to pay my respects to those who are not lazy desk jockeys like me and actually do a pretty damn tough job.

    This afternoon will be spent in the garden gazing at the skies watching the planes from Farnborough 8)

    If you'll split the postage with me, i'll take it off your hands.

    Up early. Coffee. Breakfast. Ride. Shower. More coffee and 2 bacon sarnies. Bliss.

    Except that he's not actually offering to buy it, he wants me to give it away and he makes a contribution to postage. It'd be on McGumtree or getting hawked down some shady Stranraer boozer within minutes of delivery :)

    Well there was nothing bike related, watched the f1 then went into the village where I couldn't park up so I had to resort to using the village hall and then got abused by the local am dram society as I was taking up a parking space that was needed for their performance that wasn't starting for at least 5 hours at that point.

    Nothing like giving as good as you get, being a northerner in Cornwall they all think I'm a tourist, so when I had a go back saying that's a lovely way to treat a local I was asked where I lived! The surprised look on their faces when I said in this village. Bunch of [email protected]

    On the upside, when I did retreat back to the car park the ticket machine was broken. Every cloud eh :lol:

    Not sure why you felt the need to retreat from a face off with the amateur dramatic society, even if most of them probably have at least one more digit on each hand than you :)

    Was there lots of flouncing by them AM?

    You're right Stevo - I didn't offer to buy it. I wanted to see how it would look after it was baled into a 14"x14x18" cube and was willing to pay half the postage just to see.
    Maybe some other forumites could stump up the rest of the postage costs - pretty sure there is a few that would love to see the Bruiser properly bruised :D

    I think the bloke thought I was going to clout him one, he got very nervous when I walk upto him to have a discreet chat. Next time I'm going to stand in the carpark like a loon shouting a plague on all their houses - See how they like putting up with bad acting :wink:
