I was more spoilt than you , pudding as well for me

There's a Word document open at all times on his PC with his 5 standard replies ready to cut and paste.

Flu/Kraken/Long Covid/Mystery Virus update! I'm feeling a bit better every day, and apart from the odd dry cough, and still sore stomach muscles I'm getting there. Just hoping it's not going to come back again as it did two weeks ago. I still tire out quite quickly, but having said that we've been like that since we had Covid in August! So at the moment it's looking like I could be out this weekend after being sidelined for 8 weeks!

Granddaughter is going to take her CBT in a couple of weeks. So today she took most of my wife's bike/scoot gear (helmet, gloves, jacket (textile), trousers (textile) and boots) in preparation for the big day, her mother not very happy about it though.

For a change, thought a mod could have nuked it before pete had to though.... #notpullingweight

Just set off the SOS function on my Apple Watch. Wants to know if I had a fall and if it needs to call the emergency services What actually happened was Little Bits attacked me Kato style, hiding and jumping on me as I walked past.

Valentine dinner for 2.

Snap , but we had a starter first instead of pudding .............

Do you like egg and chips on your pepper?

You don't fool me, your magic's not limited to making peoples head hair drop out, I've seen all the death n decay wherever you stop, before you could fully control your powers you gave yourself mange FFS

New bit of garden art, well old primary school project for Little Bits that has been booted out of the revamped conservatory. Lots of competitive dad stuff back in those use days. Twas a Viking study so I made her a battle axe and shield. Dunno what happened to the axe.

Bugger, what did I miss ? At least it wasn't me , was it ?

Well who could turn that down...

nothing wrong with egg and chips

Is that wise? I mean Pedro had a full head of hair before he rode with you

Found a photo of @Pedro in his younger years .............

Well I seemed to have successfully wasted the last two days and now I have to pay the price. Hope I can get into bed before midnight the rest of the week. Laters gators.

i asked cause it reminded me of one of my dads mates ... he had 5 pairs of chino trousers all the same colour , used to wear a different pair every day , he had to stop wearing them and bought blue ones cause he kept dribbling and had to start wearing Tena Lady Pads

I made my wife very, very angry. Surprisingly there are no photos of that.

mine was all home made though.... didn't even have to take the twat out, she cooked it...

It's a British thing , 80% of Brits don't like motorcycles and the twats don't see any of the benefits

Never too late

Waters off a ducks back really, we have always had the sort of relationship.

I have asked the Mrs and its was confiscated by the primary school years ago. Little bits was running around trying to chop the boys with it, luckily it was only made of pine wood, apparently I wasn't told as Little Bits was worried I would have told her off. When the viking project was over she was only allowed to bring the shield home, if we wanted the axe back one of us had to go get it. Only found that out today

Yeh.....but Mr Slowly already has no hair! What's he got to lose?

I quite fancy doing some of his tours, I would probably try his Postie Bike Day to start with as it sounds like a laugh and it would be a good way to see if we got along.

A mod as well …

Can't blame him tbf though it was maybe the topbox

You're nothing if not repetitive.

Yeah, I took some mates from Cumbria down to meet him as they had a trail weekend with him. He seems like a nice bloke

I did his LEJOG ride cos I needed Mr Slowly to understand the vagaries of large group rides ie it’s mostly a total PITA. I found him a lovely guy but not quite the bimbler you’d think. He’s straight forward company and works pretty hard but doesn’t appear to have cracked the happiness thing yet, carries a lot of weight on his shoulders. But yer still a very nice guy. When we got to Scotland due to Covid restrictions we couldn’t enter as a group so thats where the route officially finished, although people did carry on individually I told him we were able to take our time so could he suggest some roads. He seemed to zone out from his surroundings and marked up my map with the encyclopaedic knowledge of a rain man! It was worth the trip cost for that alone.

Wasting money, giving Dad a hard time and it's supposed to be noise cancelling. As well as creating a feature instead of the same boring painted walls.

@Tym is probably just taking a breather. I care more about him than I care about most of his posts, I wish him well either in the forum or real life.

Pete is mistaken. I did have a full head of hair but it was gone by the time I bought a GS. Not going to post a picture of it so you can all make fun of me, but I made this video and there’s a short clip from before my last proper haircut, on my way to the Beethoven air style I’m the one getting into the driver’s seat at the beginning: This was in 2011, I think a few months before I shaved my head

i cant stand that cunt , he makes me feel physically sick.

The bedroom closet at my home. It’s been like that since I know the place. I’m no artist like @boboneleg

We had it at school when I first started, I think I was about 8 before we actually got any at home. I then discovered it actually came in different bright colours and without long hairs inside most of it, unlike the brown reinforced stuff at school. When my Dad died his Ford jeep thing was sitting in the front garden and my Mum wanted it gone as it was a constant reminder of him. The problem was it had no MOT and the hooter was disconnected, for some reason the alarm would go off whilst driving and that set of the hooter. My Dad had been trying to find the cause of this when he got ill so it had never been fixed. I had no chance of solving the problem so I bolted a motorcycle hooter under the bonnet and led two wires via the battery and a fuse then into the cab. I made a plasticard box up with a bell push button in it, connected it to the hooter wires and gaffer taped it to the dashboard with the words BODGOMATIC HOOTER (PATENT PENDING) written on it in magic marker. It passed the MOT with that and I drove it to my house and kept it there for a few months, green laning in it occasionally, before selling it for my Mum.

I do like this chap and his outlook on life. One of life's Bimblers although he has done some epic international trips.

You've been dead inside for years

The SAS one is great, it’s a mix of Lawrence of Arabia and a Tarantino film, just great and seasoned with plenty of ACDC. There a guy in that show that links it with The Wire, and I’ll just watch that again as it’s simply that good and worthy of multiple viewings. Also better than most current stuff.

First season of SAS Rogue Heroes, it’s great!

Wife just announced that she wants to go to Albox this week!

Been round the sons sorting a bedroom/games room. I might add he's 33 in March. Kitchen worktop fitting along with some led type cornice and some Natural wall panels. To fit this in this tight spot here I made a template out of some old skirting. Shit the price of this stuff has gone mental so didn't dare mess it up. In it's slot nice and tight. The "natural wall" is a right pain in the arse as the bars of wood are fitted to the back panel which is a thick felt with staples, so you have to miss them by taking some off the top or bottom and then re-stapling in places to keep them all together. You can guess I'm really going to enjoy the next panel as it's going on the wall with the plug point. This is the opposite wall we did at the weekend.

Urr well perhaps moderating?

There's no skill in the world that that man hasn't mastered!

Excellent. I loved plasticine. It got banned from our house as my mum kept finding it mashed into the carpet ( I was genuinely clueless about how it got there), I become apoplectic before sobbing uncontrollably so she relented. I don't think I've been that upset about anything since, well maybe Lassie going the wrong way.

The BoyDog years......he fucking hated the Bandit!

No pictures unfortunately. When I was about 8 or 9 I had been given a hand held telescope, the sort you see Admiral Nelson disobeying orders with. At that time we lived on the top floor of a maisonette (4 floors overall) and I used to look across the waste ground to the next town from my bedroom window. I got sick of the wobbling picture so decided what I needed was some sort of tripod. I found two large old glass coffee jars with screw top lids. Digging out my plasticine, I had loads, I stuck one jar to the window ledge. I unscrewed the lid half way and then plasticined the second jar across the lid sideways, unscrewing that one's lid halfway. Finally I plasticined the telescope to the sideways jar lid. I now had a telescope I could swivel or move up and down but stayed steady. If I had known about duct tape I would have had an easier time of it.

He will be along soon to show us how to load a pellet burner .............................. I'm sorry I've got that wrong, apparently he wife does that job
