....and NHS waiting times!

I've got a Covid-19 booster booked in for this afternoon. I'm eligible for a flu shot too, but I may leave booking that for a week or two, to see how I react to the covid shot. Also, I want to see if it boosts my WiFi signal, as it seems to be getting a bit sketchy as my previous booster wears off!

I have been out on the bike since my last post, but I thought that this thread needed elevating up the board and also give Pete a target to aspire to! The ride down to the beach was pretty easy, with the wind behind me, but the ride back was bloody hard work, even on an ebike! 50-65kmh headwind on the way back was sapping! The wind has got a bit of a keen edge to it today too. Anyway, I may even do it again tomorrow, when the wind is forecast to gust to 80-90kmh!

I do like Triumphs, but their dealerships leave a bit to be desired! I guess that they won't miss my business, but word spreads and it'll bite them in the arse eventually! Mind you, the Honda dealer that I bought my CB500X from wasn't much better. So, my feeling now is to buy something a bit older and service it myself and stuff the dealers!

They can sell bikes with no effort, so they just take the piss! If my Triumph has depreciated that much in under 2 years, why would I buy another new Triumph?

Oh yes, and list price on the Tiger! Wouldn't shift on that, so I walked!

Just a bit!

I went over to Triumph Montpellier on Saturday for a ride out and to have a look to see what they've got in at the moment. I expressed an interest in the Tiger Sport 850. The salesman sat us down and did some number crunching. The result of which gave me a real belly laugh, so I don't think that I'll be buying a new bike, or any bike, off them in the foreseeable future!

Nah, I think I'll give it a miss!

It has some rice in it.

I need to have a go at making some Mulligatawny soup at some point.

Sounds like it needs a bit more ventilation in there, Clive. The only house that I didn't get condensation in was the first house I bought when I moved to Cambridgeshire, but that was only because I got double-glazing with Pilkington K-glass put in. At the time it was pretty expensive, but I think that it worked pretty well. Our last house in the UK was really bad for condensation, even though it was cavity wall insulated and uPVC double-glazed. We couldn’t use the built-in wardrobe in our bedroom, as all the clothes went moldy in there!

A bit of chill out from down under!

Not enough rock/Prog here recently!

Lol. No, it's just my crappy Chinese phone doing its own thing, Bob!
