Very lazy weekend for me. Didn’t sleep well at all over the last few days, plus the E30 had a nice workout visiting clients in the rain. Yesterday went to bed at 1 and woke up at 10:00, feeling great and came to town for a little stroll around and a bifana for lunch. Afternoon will be spent doing very little, would love to have the GS tomorrow as it’s sunny but it’s 300km away and needs a service.

Today was something to behold, a beautiful sunny day in Wales in March ........... The Welsh hospitality knows no bounds , they even left this at the side of the trail so Gary could have a good rest while he was eating his sandwich

I got a bit excited.

So he is about to find out how pathetic you are?

Looks better like that.

Well today is race day, me and the old man are off to the pod, my 3rd time there his first time there in about 43 years, should be a good day

It’s 21:39 here

Thank you Lionel.

It is nice outside now, still a bit cool though....... My cousin is over here visiting from Canadaland for 2 weeks, wanted to meet us all for a meal at the local pub, but that ain't gonna happen.

Weather is stunning off out with the lads today. Was going to take the Sprint but the Hornet won the popularity contest.

Had a nice long overdue conversation w/ my brother down in TX yesterday afternoon...he's in the process of building another Ossa power'd bike...

Yes, done a few around the UK. There is good coverage of chargers here and it’s never as cold as it is in Canada so it’s easy. By the time I’ve had a drink and a pee it’s ready to go again. The biggest frustration is the cost of charging away from home, it’s 7p / kw to charge at home but over 10x the cost to charge away from home. Using a Tesla charger is better value at about 50p/kw but there are a lot fewer of those available. Charging in Europe is way cheaper with many places in Scandinavia being free.

Not a fan of wheeled household appliances either then?

So do we, maybe we can swop.

Some bloody idiot did a service on a car that was booked for a "knocking on the passengers front". Don't know how that happened but I found the knocking, bloody wheel was loose. Not to mention it needs front discs and pads, a wheel bearing, a spring replacing and a battery. French crap. @Vamana Gupta How is the chinessium crap selling over there. We're swamped with dealers changing to electric vehicles, made via the most carbon producing methods totally out weighing any possible benefit to the earth so owners can smell their own farts. I hear they're offered big money off as they're not selling, but many that do then break down and having to go without said crap as parts aren't available.

Gorgeous day here , trail ride in Wales tomorrow so it will probably start raining as soon as I cross the bridge
