Skippy

I know mate, a basic schoolboy error. Won’t happen again.

Spent all afternoon in the hospital with the Mrs. She was in excruciating pain and I suspected her kidney stones have flared up. She ended up on a drip for a couple of hours and feels better having been dosed up to the eyeballs with antibiotics. I even had to cook my own tea.

Buen viaje Bobunapierna

Okay, so as long as I get the CB back before then it won’t be a problem. Safe trip mate.

As soon as the ground staff see it they’ll probably offer you assistance. How long are you away for?

That would do for me Bob…….must get another dirt bike of some kind to tick the Stella box. Maybe something very unsuitable……….errrr maybe not a DR600S though

Could’ve been similar for us last night as our very nice Belgian neighbours let their place to a Spanish family who then invited at least a dozen more with four dogs between them. Continuous banging euro-pap tunes from one of the cars which they turned up loud enough so they could rave around the pool which is on the other side of the house. Because I was in pirate mode yesterday I was all for asking them ‘politely’ to turn the music down but I was persuaded by the galley maid to video it and send it to our Belgian neighbours. Worked a treat, music went off within a couple of minutes. Apparently our Belgian neighbours rang one of them and told them to turn the fucking music off as there was a convalescing pirate next door. Had a few dirty looks this morning as they shuffled around the garden, a few heavily slammed car doors too. One of them caught his fingers as he shut the drivers door………. laugh? I nearly shat myself.

Oooooh I did t think of that. Must stop drinking rum and start on beer. Actually if someone else buys it for you it doesn’t really count does it?

No, it’s character building. there is a certain sadistic pleasure in doing something you know is gonna get you in trouble. It’s like poking a wasps nest, or riding a motorbike faster than you really should. You know it will end in tears, but you can’t help yourself. Anyway, I can’t spend my time talking to you as I have treasure to plunder, villages to ransack, wenches to entertain and rum to drink. Aaaaaaarghhhhhhhh!

Me right now

Oh fuck yes and we won. Now tucking into rum and coke because today I am a pirate. I might have to walk home from the bar as my missus has refused to come and get me. All part of the adventure. ️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️

Great photo

Good luck mate and have a safe trip. We were lucky with Jafferau as it was fabulous weather on the way up but we were stopped by some police and warned not to wait to long at the top as we were due torrential rain. Made it to the top and just back to the campsite before the heavens opened.

I’ve been up Mount Jafferau but never done the Stella Alpina event…….one to do

He’s just jealous because he doesn’t have the hand/eye coordination to be able to do it. You can see it in his riding too.

Are you going to the Stella Alpina Bob?

Gooooooooooooolf ️ tomorrow in Alicante followed by beer back at our bar. After that, who cares? …………hopefully the hangover won’t be too bad on Sunday.

If you want a proper ‘adventure’ wait for the 450…………..mind you it might be a bit much for you mate?

Fer fucks sake Pete don’t buy a new Transalp, I don’t care what colour they do it’s a fucking boring looking bike. Dull, dull, dull. Buy something that’s more exciting such as a KTM 890 or the Husqvarna Norden 901. ………..or a Himalayan

My day today was spent sweating like Jimmy Saville in a junior school……….had to have the aircon units changed as the old ones began to fail. It hit 39 Celsius in the shade today. I spent most of the time making sure the dogs were okay.

Yeah that’s true, I didn’t realise she was that young. She must just be your average female then…………..just joking ladies

Not being nosey but is it possible that she’s entering her menopause? The only reason I mention it is because my wife really struggled early on and the mood swings etc were unbearable.

That’s because she used to be a boy………I do hope I’ve overstepped the mark

Not sure yet, but as soon as I know, I’ll give you a shout.

An erection hopefully No idea mate, it’ll all depend on cash but it won’t be anytime soon.
