It's racist.... wheres white Friday

Shit I'd hoped I had hidden that trailer well enough, damned cameras

It's chilly up here but not raining

That's pretty tropical @Clive t-shirt and shorts weather, maybe sliders and socks too

Well that settles Pete's questions. With them fitted it looks better than without them

A question from Pete, how much weight do the panniers add and does it make it too heavy to push it about, how much wider than the bars are they.... And last but not least how do you ride it in the cold and wet there'd going to be puddles and everything

It may well begin with the letter "f"

Maybe yeah, saves me a job of bumming him

Ok bummer

Do I look like a harley/honda rider

There's something wrong with this sentence, can anyone guess what it is I'll give you a clue its only one of the words

Well I went to see the trade plates lot and I'm joining them again, on an ad hoc basis to begin with because they've just taken on a couple of new lads but they have been needing to use agency drivers alot recently so I'd say I'll be working more than not so yeah it's not taken me long to sort something out, now to see if Joe pays me for last week this coming Friday if he doesn't then I'll be paying him yet another visit and this time it won't just be for a nice friendly chat.....

Dying by hear attacks..... Maybe @Clive could shed some light on these hearing attacks?

That's a bloody armchair.... now we know you're getting old

Yeah there really is no need for the bullshit, well I got hold of the trade plates place I was at just before I started with thinfords and I'm off to see them tomorrow morning at 10am

Looks good though it doesn't have the clean lines it once did

No I know what you mean mate, I didn't want to as I did quite like the job but when your boss shafts you like that without a hint of thinking he's in the wrong then it's best to cut losses and seek other employment

I got the job through a friends recommendation as he works there too, he didn't think he was like that but is now proper wary of him doing the same to him or his dad. He's going to lose other drivers too if he doesn't buck up his ideas but he probably never will and will keep turning over drivers like hot cakes till the end of time

I think there was a shortage, possibly not so much of a shortage anymore. It was all his way or no way there was zero negotiation with him and I'd been more than lenient with him so his loss

Well that went down like a lead balloon at the yard with the "boss" so I pulled up and before I even get out of the car he's effing and blinding and calling me everything under the sun, saying I'm just there to piss him off and intimidate him, I couldn't get a word in edge ways he was proper red faced with anger and slamming his fists down on anything close enough going on about high blood pressure or some other shit, when I asked him if he thought he was in the right about taking my week's wage without so much as talking to me about it first he said it was his perogative.... er no you need to talk to the person involved before you do that, then he said apparently iv caused 10k damage to the wagon since I've had it..... when asked to come up with exactly what damage he just said the bar on the top sheet was bent and couldn't say anything else. Then I tried to explain to him why I'd taken 2 Mondays off recently and he didn't want to know and he was saying that if I take anymore time off then that's me out of the door.... so I decided to take it out of his hands and I told him to fuck off and cleared my truck out. I'm having the rest of the week off and will be sorting something out at the start of next week. Word of warning don't ever do business with thinford shavings Ltd they are not a a proper business

Well im off up to the yard this morning to have a word with my gaffa seen as he hasn't even attempted to contact me regarding my non payment of wages last week, he didn't contact me about it before he did it I just got to Friday last week and he hadn't paid me, I spoke to sammie who deals with us drivers and she knew nothing about it, on further investigation he told her its because I'd had 2 days holiday over that which I'd accrued. I've sent emails and asked sammie to get him to call me but he just refuses so today is the day I will surprise him at the yard so we can finally get something sorted out, so yeah I guess watch this space it could get interesting seeing as the last time I spoke to him over the phone he's Billy big bollocks but in person his bollocks shrink and he's all nicey nicey.

Well Fuck guess I'm rumbled now eh

I have no idea mate I've not even looked in to it yet

Obviously I wouldn't be comparing it with a busa nothing else is in that league bar the zzr14 or the ninja h2. I'd be comparing it to the street glide special I test rode back in 2019 because that's the only other cruiser I have ridden to compare it to
