Don’t .

Thank you Pedro, I want that car or the UK spec equivalent. I wouldn’t give my E46 up for much but I would for a spotless E30.

My kids used to Its long gone now. I think that photo is from around 2010 ish. One of my Jack Russells loved it to. And yes I did go on it now and again with the kids and it was fucking knackering.

Moved in November 2000

Your best yet, you are our Banksy

Remember years ago when they used to come around with aerial photos of your house selling them door to door? Anyway this shows the pinch point at the corner of my house, plenty of room in the garden but poor access.

24 years ago when I bought the house I had the front garden paved for parking, we can get 3 cars out there comfortably 4 at a squeeze but to get around the back is a pinch point as we live in the corner of a square. I intend to build a bike shed in line with the gate opening so it should be user friendly for me and the maid to get out bikes in and out.

Today I have mostly be widening my back gate to make access for bikes more manageable. I increased the opening from 33” to 41.5”. My theory is that I will be able to get my Hornet through with bar end mirrors fitted. Funnily enough I used to be able to get my R100RS through the 33” opening with care looking back it seems impossible now but I know I could and did often. Fuck me timber has become expensive. Love on the invoice you get 4” x 4” x 2.4 m post sizes. That’s British common sense right there Before Had to dig down through the 70 year old concrete path with my wood pecker of a breaker. To be fair when I was working as a gardener handy man I went through several of them over the years but they are surprisingly capable and were cheap as chips to replace. At the time a decent brand small breaker was £300 and this Aldi special was £30 and for the odd job like today it was a no brainier. After gate stretched and rehung. I am going to be redoing much of the garden over the summer and once that is completed I will get a couple of bags of chipping to put down to tidy things up.

Working tonight, singing up at Lanivet on Saturday night and working Sunday overnight, I am nothing if not predictable

Not like that where I live thankfully.

I was looking at those on Amazon, £37 a pair. I like the idea of bar ends but they make getting the bike through the back gate awkward. Mind you I can always widen the gate to suit.

Have a look on Amazon. I fancy some better mirrors for my bike either some decent bar end mirrors or some double takes. They have great reviews but are a little spendy, I don’t mind if they work well.

Anybody any experience of them, thinking of getting some for my Hornet. ?

Reservoirs are at 100% down here. Doesn’t mean they won’t run out but first time they have been full in 3 years.

Oh a Poll, I’m so excited I’m going to do a happy dance. Does life get any better than this?

I am @Clive just cut me grass for the first time this year. Funnily enough I had to sort the mower first as the Mrs had stood on the pull cord and jammed it out. Easy enough fix but then the fucking thing wouldn't stay running, guessing it was the fuel on the turn I put some of the octane booster I use for my car it in and it ran just fine. But then again it is a Honda, see told you I have had an interesting day.

FFS Stop your look at me glory hole tactics just tell us your choice or not, you're getting as bad as ZACACACACKKKKKKK. You never know it might just be interesting

Went for a bimble round the Clay Country today, cold and dry but Twas a joy to be out and about on my own. The Blue Bells were out on my walk this morning and saw the Ugly Boat.

To give Marcel his due what he said was sensible, rare I know but!

Wise words mate

They have shared some photos on FB so I suppose it's okay to post them here. And no I am not in any of them, but they were a friendly enough bunch.

Why don't you have a bash at setting up your own bike night, just need a friendly spot with parking and set up a face book group. Build it and they will come.
