  1. Yep garaged at home was the only criteria I found that made any difference too.
  2. I think the padlock thing is a complete con, in this area it makes no real difference to the premium. I rang the insurance company and asked for a quote with a lock and without, it made £7 difference. So no way I’d commit to something that would let them off the hook if I forgot it. Also asked them for a quote with and without pillion cover and that made zero difference. As insurance companies are scum I’m resigned to the idea I’d be lucky to get anything out of them. I only bother because the one thing they do is protect other drivers from your own mistakes.
  3. That’ll be interesting
  4. Seriously, with a chainsaw?!! How big is it? ps so nice to ask that knowing you wont be the one with a smutty reply.. well maybe not a really smutty reply
  5. True, its is a civic duty but if you're going to be left seriously out of pocket (especially considering what's on the horizon cost of living wise) its no joke. A lot of people cant afford to lose two weeks wages. I'm currently exempt because the emergency Covid medical register hasn't closed yet, it'll be sods law I get summoned when it shuts end of September
  6. I've got two really nice looking full face lids, an open face and an 'adventure' helmet and never use them because the proof of the pudding is in the eating and I always go for the flip lid, its just better. I bought the Neotec II which was much lauded in 2018 and I loved it, then 2021 bought the heavily discounted much maligned Schuberth C4 for using in Spain (maligned due to the crap integrated coms system that I won't ever be using). I rode back wearing the Schuberth and haven't once worn the Neotec since, even though its a good helmet the Shuberth is more comfortable and quieter. I don't know anyone who regrets buying a flip lid. Nice catch on the dual homologations, most folk miss that completely. I think the Scorpions look the bees knees.
  7. They've probably kept it at the same amount, you just cant buy fuck all with it now
  8. If I lived that far away I'd ask to defer, they often never call back, no loss of earnings no squabbling over parking n petrol, no traffic queues.
  9. Surely they don't expect people to travel that far and put you up nearby?
  10. I thought they were supposed to be a bit chewy. Tapioca flour usually is
  11. I knew it was predominately a Brazilian breakfast thing but there seems to be some Portuguese connection. Not sure serving a chewy cheese ball for breakfast would go down well here Roast with coal grilled butter baguettes sounds excellent.
  12. ahh I see there was a pic that didn’t display. Ignore the Jonah Falcon post I would of thought that would set off a lot of mens imaginations
  13. Most wise. I favour taking a pork pie and crisps yep I'm
  14. @Pedro do you have Pão de Queijo in Portugal? If you do are they served with anything in particular?
  15. Waiting for the youngest to return for what's turning into brunch rather than breakfast! Fillet steak, bearnaise sauce (basically hollandaise with tarragon in it which I bought premade from M&S, yes I know lazy arse ) saute potatoes, poached egg and oven dried plum tomatoes (takes time but hands down the best breakfast tomato there is).. WHERE IS HE, I'M HUNGRY!
  16. Now that Id definitely want to eat, looks good.
