I had to look up Argan oil. It mentioned the traditional way of extracting it!!! A tradition in some areas of Morocco allows goats to climb argan trees to feed freely on the fruits. The kernels are then later retrieved from the goat droppings, considerably reducing the labour involved in extraction at the expense of some potential gustatory aversion.

This picture makes me dizzy and I am not sure why.

Never play leapfrog with a unicorn

If a man speaks in a forest but there is no woman to hear it, is he still wrong?

So it was already a warmed up engine, weird, you would think it would love bump starting, it's being contrary, it needs a good kicking with heavy boots on or a Basiling with a large tree branch.

As it's cold have you got the choke on and using second gear rather than first?

I didn't even know Darby and Jones clubs were a thing there?

Is it a kick/electric start model or just electric start? Is it carbed or FI?

Taken this morning. They had to drag me to school when I was little as well.

It's started

I seem to see faces everywhere, probably some sort of illness. Or watching to much HR Pufanstuff as a child.

We had the same in some places. I assumed it was the whole Moslem thing about only God can make anything in the image of man, it's not seemly for humans to do the same. The same reason you only get fancy patterns in Mosques, not images of God, saints or prophets. I recall getting annoyed with one of our group and telling him off when I saw he was trying to take a photograph of a girl who wasn't comfortable with that and him offering her money.

I clicked on the 'like' wossname, but that isn't really the most appropriate reaction. A very personal and honest ride report, I am looking forward to reading the rest.

I just let the bike sit and if the bike didn't want to start come the day I would take the battery off and charge it normally like they did back in the 20th century. I think it's drip feeding day in day out that kills them, but it's only a theory.

Pedro, are these your meunkeys?

What have you captured under you blue crate trap, is it lunch?

Every thread on any bike forum I read that has a bike that won't start always has the words, 'it's been plugged into an Optimate at all times' in it. I can't be the only person seeing a pattern emerging here.

Don't damage the pinlock, they cost a fortune. Work a treat though, mine have never fogged.

Aren't you supposed to get the tyres off the cold ground?

I'm on my third one of those. I chose it because the visor opening is larger so I can see to the side better, plus when riding into very strong sunlight, that even the tinted drop down can't cope with, I can dip my head a little and use the peak as a shade. The peak does not try to rip your head off at motorway speeds either.

I got followed by a girl beggar in a wheel chair in Fes moaning that I hadn't given her enough money and getting a bit shouty, she would not leave me alone till I used a flight of stairs to get away. It also has the smelliest tannery in the old town, make your hair fall out if you take a deep breath.

Took me a few seconds, but I got there in the end.

I don't want to change my car yet as I've only had it 14 years so it's not old enough yet, but when I do, I want one with a heated front windscreen. The only time I usually seem to use the thing is on really cold frosty or icy mornings and I don't just hate scraping and defrosting the windscreen before I can leave home, I doubly hate having to stop 100 yards down the road to do it again.

The train is there to dominate the scene and stop you looking at whatever the other thing is in the picture.

I recall my mate getting a car with heated seats years ago. He said his wife didn't like them because she said it felt like she had wet herself.
