It's a cultural thing I reckon Pete, a Brit would NEVER have a piss in front of a woman , they'd run across the field and hide first . Southern Europeans are not so hung up on those sort of things, it's either that or they have bigger willies than us What say you @Pedro

To be fair it must have been a fairly boring job. I used to deliver to a site up in Northumberland where they used to fire small rockets and stuff down this long tunnel. It was very remote and they had to keep enough provisions on site for 3 weeks as when it snowed they could be stuck in there for a long time . I never really thought about it at the time but some of those places I used to deliver when we had the Royal Ordnance contract were very interesting.

The Puriton reference was because I used to go there to collect and deliver ordnance (including TNT) when I was driving . I think the site is flattened now but it used to be huge. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROF_Bridgwater

That explains a lot , i always used to wonder what was behind that gate whenever I passed on the bike. When we were kids we used to go to Sand Bay a lot, our Dad would fish off the rocks below the toll road and us kids would entertain ourselves on the beach while our Mum had a rest (from us ). One day at low tide we found what turned out to be an unexploded shell, we didn't know what it was but after dragging our Mum down to view it she called the police and they evacuated the beach while my Dad just carried on with his fishing

All photos present now. Great ride report Pedro, fantastic photos I don't think I've ever seen a bike with a fully enclosed engine like that before, or is it 'fan cooled' like a Vespa ?

Great report Pedro, unfortunately I can only see the last 7 photos . Is it just me ?

When they were recording it Brian Wilson was not happy with the way it was being sung by Carl or Dennis Wilson so he asked Blondie Chaplin to have a go (he was a session musician for the Beach boys at the time). I guess that's why it sounds a bit different to other Beach Boys songs.
