You miserable bastards.

Happy Sunday

They’re arseholes. I would offer them the choice of either make it right like I paid you for or enjoy what’s probably the first of many terrible google reviews that appear whenever someone looks for your place.

Looks great and now you have all the protection anyone could need against wolves and bears That orangey yellow ball is a bit on the bright side first thing isn’t it. The decathlon pop up tent I have has ‘dark technology’ I spent all night waiting for Darth Vader to appear, most disappointing.

Mr Slowlys new monitor is so large he has to look left and right to be able to see it all The current solution which looks like crap is to have one desk with the screen at the back and another in front of it with the keyboard and mouse allowing him to sit far enough back to see it all So I’ve bought this lovely chunk of walnut. It’ll mean he can have the absolute maximum amount of desk space available. Difficult to photograph lent in the hall and it’s still wrapped in plastic so doesn’t look great but I think it will work well.

Cute pic

Too big because of pack size? The footprint looks dandy. If a slightly uncomfortable bed doesn't make you wake up groaning your back/neck/ hips hurt you probably don't need it. I just googled best camp bed for bad backs (I dont have a bad back but I thought theyre the sort of people that would have gone through every option) and a thin inflatable on top of a cot seemed to be the winner. I'd be too concerned about the drop in temperature or being eaten by bears, tents are safe as houses everyone knows bears can't undo zips or tear nylon

Excellent work cheers to that.

Best not to go looking Pete, its like a slow motion car crash you find it difficult to tear your attention away then somehow suddenly you’re caught up with a load of miserable buggers arguing about who caused it

That camping cot with an inflatable on top is the bees knees. First time I’ve ever been comfortable enough camping to not want to get up in the morning. Really no proper tent to speak of? Just as well Motobikers in charge! You’ve ventured into nautical seas now with your bitter bits and rabbits and I know buggerall about knots and tarps so we’re gonna need pics of this Heath Robinson marvel!

@ReggiePezza don’t be sad, its was comical. One of the new special constables got out his badge out and deleted my posts.. left his own irrelevant jibberjabber though

BTW @ReggiePezza I once got a right royal dressing down for mentioning purchasing a german washing machine and spoiling the clean lines of Motobikers trip thread so I’m bailing on the fridge talk

If the fridge isn’t at least as robust as a Tonka toy I’ll be disappointed.

Aah I see that’s why its a bad idea to just do the stuff you’re supposed to do cos if you just get on and do it doesn’t leave you with easy access to the good books

You can’t reduce absolutely every thread down into the usual puerile twaddle.. oh wait you can

Urr Liebherr?

I can see the appeal.. and the price

Brilliant idea.

Is it like mural wallpaper or just a mahoosive poster?

Is it just me or are you giving Tym a run for his money?

We’ll see 🌧 The fixings look ok and the panniers have waterproof cases/liners in them so I’m not too bothered. The Andalucian sun is definitely a take as many layers off as possible type climate and wearing a hydration pack is too hot. Also not fond of cleaning them and dont like carrying the weight on my person (3litres is an extra 3kilos on your back). Plus its a bit of a faff bothering with one when you’re going to the supermarket to do a big shop. I’ll let you know how much it wrecks them after Ive ridden in the rain a bit The fixing system they’ve used allows you to unclip the water bottles and click a small jerry can in its place… I have one eye on Morocco

Panniers tuned up. I give them until the end of their first outing to get scuffed up and look tatty. Got a couple of bottle holders to go on the outside of the case (stopping and getting water out of a voluminous tightly strapped down bag did my noggin in after a few days) so my first job is to drill holes in my brand new panniers. Im thinking mañana
