Prost!

On my doorstep waiting for my bezzie to pick me up. Swinging by the rugby club to pick up our husbands and having a curry n few drinkies together. First time since the end of 2019!! Excited doesn’t describe it!

weather here is stupid hoit by mid day so out early and get a couple of hours riding in before Lunch at home and an afternoon spent cowering in the shade of thick stone walls with closed shutters.

No riding today as too many things to do at home, same tomorrow but it'll be pissing down all day if the forecast is right. F1, Fomula E and MotoGP tomorrow. Off out soon to watch a few bands.

That’s all the muck off the dirty cunts visiting.

Thats just plain old tribalism Pedro. Been going on since the beginning of time. One group picks out or makes up negative imagery or stories to make their own group tighter or feel superior in some way. Every country does it. Slagging off another country makes people comfortable that their way is the right way. Happens here too, we receive societal messages about why our country is superior to others. I wouldn’t dream of regurgitating that crap on here. Humans from any place on the planet have a lot more in common than they do differences, a mothers love and care for their child is one of the most constant things in the universe no matter where you are. I do hope you dont buy into this bigotry.

Nothing wrong with shouting it. CUNT!

It's a device to tell people that they are a cunt, without having to shout it.

Medical professionals forget Irish men have been breed to operate at very low psi, low work on the dole levels for centuries, its part of my culural identity, nothing a group hug cant cure.

You worn your knob down so now you're gay?

He has a bit of form for being a bit uneconomical with the truth with her! No idea where he gets that trait from!

Aaargh the ridiculous and frail situation of the human condition. Take a few people who really love each other and watch the fireworks fly!

I was very involved with them......but if they wanted anything they always came to me first. Never her! Cos they knew I'd never say no to them......and they knew I could always bullshit my way round the wife. And they still do it now.....in their thirties! My boy in Poland got his girlfriend pregnant and came straight to me.....so I could break it to the wife! He dropped it in my lap and legged it! When I told her, her first words were "How long have you known about this?.......and don't you fucking dare lie to me". So I got all the fucking flack for it!

So since covid restrictions have eased i've been waiting to do a fairly long day around Wales. So over the bridge and a great ride up through Usk to get to the Heads of the Valleys road and on past Brecon towards Usk Reservoir, somewhere I haven't been for over 10 years. I had a good look but couldn't see Fred anywhere........... Anyway, after a coffee from my flask and a good chinwag with a local who had an ace accent from Camden Town I back tracked a while incase I saw any riders covered in shit with a hairy dude leading them . I even stopped by the hell hole cafe in Llandovery just incase they were hanging around but no luck. So I moved onwards and out towards Llyn Brianne , on the way I needed a comfort break (we have ladies present so I'm not going to say have a piss) and found this ace old bridge over the River Towy, unfortunately my phone had a hissy fit and I've lost the photos but I can tell you that it was built in 1822 . I'd forgotten how good the road is around Llyn Brianne, there is some stunning scenery around there........... I also noticed at this point that my tyres are becoming more gay by the minute..........

We get a lot of race bikes in with chinese fairings on them, expect nothing to fit like O/E but if you're trying to save your originals then it's a damned good idea to use them.

Fuck that , 6000 people together when we still have covid problems here, no thanks. Anyway, I prefered it when it was in a field near Banbury without all the corporate shite. I've been with ABR from the begining but for me they sold out big time, having said that for anyone going I wish them all the best .

Last week it was sweltering, today I wish I'd worn an extra two layers

Got to love France on a warm day, ride through any village and what do you see ? No one, absolutely no one except some silly feckin Brits riding their bikes and trying to find a sandwich and a coffee from somewhere

You should have been in Wales today, two days from mid summers day and I had to put my heated grips on

15 minutes more than me then

i went out last night to my local that tripe was on but i didnt watch it, by all accounts i didnt miss much a bit like watching paint dry

that just about says it all

I took the rear shock off, that's as far as I got before it started to rain. Not looking good for tomorrow too.

Strangely you do not see many there....Skeggy is their playground.

Scooter boys?

Yes they do say there are bits that you have to fettle and faff with. Yet some have fitted just fine.

No idea on that.......but I'd be wary of them actually being a good fit.

Asserting her independence against the authority already ay, sounds like youve got a good’n there, you want then to have something about them, something that lets you know they’ll be alright in life. You dont really want a mousey do as your told goody two shoes, they tend to get walked on so in a way pain in the arse as it is for your poor wife its a good sign me thinks.

They dont hate eachother as such just with the wife being home all the time she just doesn't so as she's asked with the wife yet I can get her to play the game with apparent ease

You know the ones that always storm around chewing a wasp and who want everything done 3 weeks ago

I've never been so deeply offended

Don't know how to tell you, but the way most countries in Europe see the British (mostly English) is young grandparents, young kids eating junk food, angry mothers, teenagers throwing up with a half eaten burger in their hands and then carrying on eating, kids eloping with young pregnant women, brawls between groups of groups of football jersey wearing youths and sunburned topless youths, 2 liter beer jugs, etc

What’s a phone?

Only got the camera on my phone But eh..it is 1 more than @Buckster has it seems.

Ah mate, different generation. Men n women were a different species back then.

Just a feeling I got really......along with the number of times I got smacked in the face!

Me tomorrow......................maybe!

They have knobs but they're worn down to gay

Different for me, they usually told me to fuck off.

Not really.......in my younger days I had a bit of a rep for sneaking round behind womens' backs and lying to them. Apparently I have a terrible attitude towards women.

Hit the fucking roof! Because of the way my boy did it......he'd denied that she was pregnant to the wife about a month before when he was here. He said that he was going to marry this loony in Poland......and the wife asked him...."Is she pregnant?" He just lied point blank to her face. Then he got me to try and get him out of the shit by telling me instead!

Any control or discipline always came from the wife! I'm the soft touch with kids and animals!

A wild Nootka Rose just for you!

The long and the short of it is with kids youre damned if you do and damned if you dont. The rest of this post is just detail cos I sympathise with where you are. When you get to the other side of child rearing you’ll look back and realise that theres little support, no definitive manual and a plethora of arseholes with differing opinions both telling you what to do and judging you on what they think doing wrong. Being a mum these days quite simply sucks, the pressure for perfect parenting is absurd. The advice from childless people is alway hilarious, they generally have strong opinions and judgements with no clue what its like down in the trenches day in day out so pay no heed there. I bred about 5 years ahead of my peers and was relentlessly advised all sorts of nonsense. Your obviously bright enough to know what a balanced diet is and I doubt you married a moron so whatever you land up doing will likely work out fine. With mine I let them eat what they wanted and leave what they didnt. If it turned out they didnt like the main part- like I had one that didnt like lasagne the next time I’d remove a dollop of the mince and put it with defrosted cooked plain pasta, al dente portions stashed away for occasions when their little noses curled at the taste of something takes away some strain. BUT this is unwelcome extra work and dont underestimate just how time consuming and endlessly tiring getting good quality, well balanced food on the table every single day is among the myriad of other tasks- especially the witching hour of bath and bedtime. If the alternative sometimes ends up being toast well thats ok too, no harm done, mums sanity being in tact is far more important for happy healthy children. My friend who had to sit in front of her unwanted food is now 48 and STILL doesn’t eat so many vegetables that influenced the way I did things. My fussiest son whose ‘NO’ list was long now eats them all (apart from peas). He has a well developed palate for a 19yr old and adventurous tastes, many teenagers would shy away from cracking a lobster, trying sweetbreads, eating whitebait or ordering snails but he enjoys these things possibly because he was allowed to come to it in his own time. Or thats my belief, I dont have a second identical son raised differently to know if it would have happened anyway! Once I got to know everyone’s genuine likes and dislikes which I didn’t mind accommodating I put a very large decal on the kitchen table wall that said “TODAYS MENU- Take It Or Leave It” cos children (and adults) whining at you about what they do and dont fancy eating while you jump up and down like a short order chef is a massive NO. So having said there’s a plethora of arseholes with opinions you know what to do with mine…… You know your other half is gonna either laugh her tits off or get angry you’re asking for opinions on a motorbike forum

I don't know mate she does like things like garlic bread and other strong flavours just seems to be abit reluctant to try too much that is new though give it to her a few times and she's ok with it

Some people say that about Fox news. Bobs phone, cause it just plain works damnit.

I would not venture into that mudbath!.......sea water!.....it looks more like oxtail soup.
