    Jeebus. You could probably get an old 944 for the cost of that wing...take the wing off that you need and flog the rest for parts.

    Afternoon folks,
    in the orifice again, looks quite pleasant out, unfortunately I had to drive the EPO in so no wobble. Usual stupidity being fended off at every opportunity.

    Afternoon
    Another ride with the lad, this time went to farm shop cafe rather than garden center cafe. I’m not sure I can afford to keep going on these rides£18/19 for 2 drinks and 2 sandwiches, at least todays were a bit more substantial.
    Hopefully I will get out for a ride when Mrs W gets in, better not do a cafe stop though.

    Day 3 at the Worlds, spectator servicing, ooh er missus.

    Got well warm. So team knocked off with another cold beer.

    These para riders are 'kin impressive, across the categories. There was a Spanish gold winner in this morning's TT session, no arms below elbow and one leg. Just so well done pal.

    Road races tomorrow starting and finishing in the beautiful Crichton.

    When they reprogram my brain with AI, I can have a new wing and a shiny car all in my imagination.

    In muggy Somerset, having left a sunnywarm London. Having a nice cold beer before bed, having listened to MiL blather on about the minutiae of the lives of people I've never met on a delayed train journey and then a drive behind someone who had presumably lost their glasses, or never driven in the dark before. Unfortunately, most of the road is double white lined, as it winds alongside the Quantocks.
