XTreme

Well I must be feeling a bit better because I checked and prepped the bike after 8 weeks standing. Tyre pressures checked, chain lubed, linkages checked and greased, and loads of dust cleaned off it! I'm good to go......weather permitting of course!

Well @yen_powell hasn't! To Yen, those items are like Kryptonite to Superman!

Raquel Welch has died.....she was stunning! It seems like every day we lose another celebrity!

Covid leaves it's mark Bob!

This wouldn't be happening if Six had got the Mod gig!

Flu/Kraken/Long Covid/Mystery Virus update! I'm feeling a bit better every day, and apart from the odd dry cough, and still sore stomach muscles I'm getting there. Just hoping it's not going to come back again as it did two weeks ago. I still tire out quite quickly, but having said that we've been like that since we had Covid in August! So at the moment it's looking like I could be out this weekend after being sidelined for 8 weeks!

Surely you're not going to miss out on visiting places that resemble Dresden in 1945?

Yeh.....but Mr Slowly already has no hair! What's he got to lose?

I think Mr Slowly needs to experience some Motorcycling Tourettes!

No!

Nuked 2 posts......we've been down this road before!

He's a really nice guy......so is Sam Manicom. Have you met him @boboneleg?

Wife just announced that she wants to go to Albox this week!

There's no skill in the world that that man hasn't mastered!

Where's Blender when we need him?

The BoyDog years......he fucking hated the Bandit!

Call the engineer!

DIY threads? Can you see where this is going @Six30?

Where am I supposed to post?

Serious depreciation on them!

Your flu finally gone @Clive? We're still quite nasally and occasionally I get a bit of phlegm in my throat which gets me coughing......but overall we're feeling a bit better. Still a way to go though!

Tym's been a close friend of mine for over 20 years......and probably the most loyal friend I've ever had. There's nothing two faced about him like some people.....he'll never do the dirty on you like so many others have. And to me that counts for a lot. Also, he's a man that literally gave up his own life to care for his elderly parents way before I knew him. And even though he's now in his mid 60's and not in good health he continues to be the sole carer for his 90 year old mother. His brothers have gone off and have had their lives and Tym has carried it all. I think that speaks volumes for the man that he is. How many of us could do the same? Of course, as Buck mentioned, he's always been a bit unstable.....I'm not denying that. God knows how many times I've had to calm him down over the years. But he's now no longer threatening to put guns in peoples' mouths, or riding across the US to shoot somebody as he used to do.....so he has mellowed somewhat. But be aware that underneath it all is a very decent guy! He's been with me on every forum that I've done, and had my back on every forum meltdown that's happened on the net. So not having Tym round has been very odd for me, and given the number of people who've asked about him, it probably is for you too. But he's his own man, and he makes his own decisions. Maybe he'll return at some point.......maybe he won't. I just don't know!

They've always been real ones......Marie (who's a friend of @Buckster) has always had the hots for him. Plus Gemma who was continually messaging me on FB when he wasn't posting there!
