XTreme

Back from Albox! Going down there and seeing some of the Brits is like a freakshow. One couple, easily in their 60's, were walking into a restaurant dressed like something out of an Adam Ant video from 40 years ago.

I am currently living the dream in Albox!

Which is always a long list!

Exactly! I did shit like that in my teens and twenties.......though I only ever camped at race meetings! Anywhere else I'd get a Hotel or B&B......though some didn't want to take bikers! But that was 40-50 years ago. Time has moved on, we've got older and our personal commitments have changed. We do what we're able to do according to the cards that have been dealt to us.

I can access a laptop easily in cars, trains etc.....not so easy on a bike. And you are aware my wife is partially disabled now.......driving is very risky for her. Some of us have responsibilities and commitments in life, and we have to honour them. Am I right @Clive?

Nominees so far: Buckster busabeast XTreme Slowlycatchymonkey Marcel Six30

There's not that many of us here who are still working now!

You know all too well that's not possible with my work and family commitments. Can you give me a rundown on yours......because they're obviously different from mine? And do you think that going away on a motorcycle is somehow the defining factor on people's level and worth as a motorcyclist?

Updated all clients today with the days that it'll only be emergency service! Friday 22nd December - Wednesday 27th December: Emergency Service Thursday 28th December - Friday 29th December: Normal Service Saturday 30th December - Wednesday 3rd January: Emergency Service Thursday 4th January onwards: Normal Service So hopefully I'm going to get a few days without interruptions! For those of you who are working......what sort of time off have you got over Xmas?

The subject is motorcycling camping......so if you're going there in a van it's not the same thing.

I'm surprised @Six30 hasn't been nominated?

In a van!

Like you really then. But if I did, it would be a Hotel.

Windows 11 installed......runs nice, just need to set it up for how I want to use it.

I like comfort......I've no wish to live like a homeless person.

Six's cars are only fit for the scrapper as a standard feature.

It can't be that bad for @Clive......after all, he hasn't bought a used car from you.

She'll lift......then I'' connect it and install W11. Interestingly, the PC I paid €499 for yesterday is now back up to €539. The GoPro is up by €100, and the phone is up by €50......so I got the timing just right!

PC arrived......a day early. Setting it up tonight

Would a groin photo help?

Stitches came out today! Can't see me back on the bike for a while cos I'm playing it safe!

In the Health Centre waiting to get the rest of the staples removed.

He's been good to me this year: €1K tax rebate, new phone, GoPro Hero 12 Black, and now a new PC! Unfortunately I can't swing it for a new bike!

CB500X would be just right for him.

The wife's new microwave just arrived!
