There is a upside to the situation, we have no condensation on any of the windows in the evenings. Ice yeh, but no misted up windows.

Our daughter lives 500 metres away in a small 2 bedroom house, with their daughter (our granddaughter) and his 2 kids from a previous marriage they are over capacity. Friends .....that is a unknown commodity for us.

Wife has to ring National Grid and the Housing association tomorrow, hopefully one of them will get their asses in gear and get the problem sorted, but not holding my breath for a quick resolution.

Bet you only hold out till March..................at the latest.

Fucking freezing.

Whoo Hooo!... engineer has arrived, boiler needs new parts, which will take 1 week or longer to arrive So we have no hot water or heating, and no baths or showers for that time..

No engineer till............................. next Wednesday!.

She is not producing hot water or heating.......hope one of her hot flushes kick in soon.

A cold morning and weekend coming up and.....................the boiler is on the blink.

My 1st Honda was a CB750f2n, it did most thing quite well, a real doddle to work on, the parts (plugs, oil & air filter, disc pads) were comparatively cheap too, and it was from a age where Honda,s finish quality was best. The VFR had a good finish on its parts too, but it was a bit of a pig to work on, spark plug replacing, I still have the scars from that experience, was a long drawn out affair, but with warping disc, and a exhaust that rotted quick enough to please a Italian...but it was a very nice ride, and it did excel in some area, making a average rider (like me) feel like they were a better rider than they actually were, it was very forgiving. I forgot about the Honda CBR1000f (it was a forgettable bike) that I had, a very heavy lump, suspension was all but knackered when I bought it, so it did not handle the best, it was comfy, and the finish, except for the wheels was again very good.....all in all it was a bad purchase on my behalf, i did not have it for long.

We understand your problem.

Would a photo of a Vespa be better?

Bobby Charlton?

I like Hondas, i have only had 2 in my biking times, both were very good bikes though.

Not so spectacular here.....it was wet and windy.

Jeez my bonce feels cold with a grade 2.

Mr. Fish says we may get snow at this coming weekend. Hope he is wrong.

Fabulous!

Iam having my hair cut today, that's about all that is happening here.

Happy New Year

I was really shocked when Pete passed away, iam a very similar age to him and we think we are in sort of good health for our age of 70, after his Hernia op I expected him to come back stronger, and firing on all cylinders, for a while he did, then he was gone, it made me realise how fragile life is and maybe we are not as fit as we think we are. I would like to do more than I did last year, all I seemed to do last year was But I doubt it will happen, life and my financial position puts a stop to most things, so this year will just be a continuation of 2024, with maybe some some alterations in the spring. I too thank you @Buckster... @Pedro & @boboneleg for your commitment to keeping the forum running as it does, Good work guys.

We have the granddaughter with us today, that will keep my wife busy, she does most of the childminding/entertaining Off to the shops later, we need a few things, but not food or
