I thought After Life was brilliant.

That is my Kady's ambition, and what she is studying for at Duchy College.

They should be made of solid gold for what it cost for her to win them.

She was pleased

She wanted those blue LEDs instead, I know its a bit dark but the stage is set for her, she loves it like that. I think she would like to be a Goth but that doesn't chine with her horse obsession.

Finished my Daughter’s room for her. Hope she likes it. She did chose the colour. Ready for her to dive in her pit in a few minutes after a week away at College

I have all my work gear in it for my shift later. Just an experiment to see how I liked it. I don't.

Just been out for a mini Bimble to accompany my mate on his maiden trip with his CB. We popped up to Dameralls to see the new Reg bikes going out. 47 going out over the weekend apparently. Anyway I had to bite my tongue as my mate said that his fingers were cold but his palms were fine with his heated grips going. I didn’t have the heart to tell him. . Anyway he has the first 25 miles on his bike now. That tail bag is a pain, don’t know how often I will use that. Think I prefer a rucksack.

The salesman Damerells advised me not to get the Honda grips, the ones I have would have been £200 fitted and work perfectly. I didn't pay as they were part of the deal buying the bike. From what the salesman was saying the Honda grips only heat where your palms sit not all around the grip. Don't know more than that just what he told me. I didn't repeat that story to my mate as he wanted the Honda ones and paid the premium for them.

Not done that much this week as I have been decorating my Daughters room while she is away. I did pop up to my mates house, so managed just 30 miles this week. I am taking it to work tonight. MPG is hovering around 85 mpg, but I haven't commuted much with it yet, so that is just local, I reckon it will go up when I am. regularly commuting. I was having a laugh with my mate who has a Indian Scout, CB500F and Yamaha TY. He won't ride the Scout cause he wants to keep it spotless and the milage down, he bought the CB last November and hasn't done one mile yet as he doesn't want it to get salty and he won't ride the TY cause it's to slow for the road. He is telling me he needs to get an old beater to save the CB that he bought to save the Scout. The reason I mention it is he is always asking me how I am getting on with my CB as he won't ride his. He also told me his CB stands him £6800 after all the farkles he got for it. £400 for Honda heated grips .

Working Fri, Sat and Sun overnight. On the count down now, five weekends left than moving to mostly evening shifts.

And a max 500km per year cap

Thats how its pronounced though. The music would have suited him, he was a big fella, when in his 80's he was still 6'3".

Not looked at it yet been painting my daughters bedroom all fecking day

No my father in laws name was Ike Fuge. Look closer no D.

Hello Nute, welcome

Clever and massively talented I would agree with, as to the other stuff you never met my father in law. or my Dad for that matter, angry impatient little fucker at the best of times . My mate Louis, who built the boats in the pictures , is a genius with wood or with an oar in his hand, pretty much as human as the rest of us anywhere else. I could tell some tails but so could he so I will keep quiet. Here is the sign that was on my Father In Laws shed. My Mrs rescued it and it’s been on our wall for 20 years.

Cool just ordered a Quadlock mount and case so I should be sorted. Thanks for the feedback.

Cool that's good to know. I have a second phone, older iphone, that is one of the kids cast off. I always take a second phone to work as I have many access codes for different bases that I am not suppose to write down so I keep them in my phone, I am paranoid that a phone issue could leave me unable to work, so I carry a second phone, my daughter calls it my burner phone. That could be a good candidate to set up as a nav phone for my bike, as I always take it with me for work so I am used to carrying two.

Went up to look at my mates CB with a Honda main stand. Took a couple of photos and measured the spring. 185mm with the stand up. 3mm wire used. But he did give me a spare spring he had, not specifically a Honda one but it may work, if it doesn’t I have found a website where I can order a stainless spring.

I agree, I think that being a Mod is like committee service, has to be done by someone but a thankless task. Always someone wants to moan. I have done it in the past I would not in the future, thanks to Bob and Buckster for your efforts., I think you are smashing it with your less is more approach. Now I am going to wash my face after the brown nosing

Any sage like advice, I want a phone mount to go on the CB's bars. I have an iphone 12 so guess vibes are an issue. Just want something easy to use that will take the phone in a case so I can use it for nav. Not that worried about weather protection as I don't envisage leaving the phone out in the pissing rain.

This is what my mate Louis does for a living, 32' Cornish Pilot Gig This is his latest commission that is bound for Ireland. He did tell me what it is but in one ear out the other. A work of art just the same.

Looking good, I would love to be able to do that sort of thing. My father was a boat builder and that was the sort of thing he did when his real work was slow. I can do it but not with the speed or immense skill he had. Problem here is real seasoned timber is prohibitively expensive for any sort of home projects. Funnily enough my father in law was also a boat builder and a very clever man, I have a good friend now who still does it. I'll find some pictures of his stuff. I think he is a genius.
