I tested positive for Covid Sunday, still positive today but doesn't feel like more than a cold.

Bloody cold out there this morning.

Fantastic.

That BSA was an A7 with A10 parts on it according to the owner. It looked like that Honda 125 had been punched but looking at the owner that wouldn’t have surprised me.

It sounded awesome though, I always think Allspeeds sounded the best back in the day. I have just finished washing the Hornet off. Before After I am pretty sure the other six are doing the same thing this afternoon

The chill blain chapter set off from Fowey at 9:00am and 0.5c to Kitt Hill bike meet this morning. Very slippery roads but ok as long as we were sensible, and we were. I was the youngest there at 58. Bloody cold for me with heated grips the others just whinged Good turn out really considering the cold. Louis, the cafe, do good grub and after tea and fry up we thawed out and looked at the bikes.

A 70 year old chap I know came back from Turkey with teeth like that, he looked like a character from a Wallace and Gromit movie.

Me to, spent hours on Par and Fowey docks when I was a kid. Not many people seem to have time for that sort of thing anymore.

Out on the cliffs again this morning with the Dear Boy. Stunning sky and some mental fucker fishing off the rocks. I used to climb down there when I was younger, fuck that now.

Working as usual, weather is looking good so going out on the Hornet at some point also got a couple of walks planned.

Only had my bike for 3 months, no intention of changing it. Exactly what I wanted.

Out and about with the Dear Boy. Got my walk in before the rain comes.

Not all the Home guard were comic, over 1.7 million of them by the end of WW2. Manned Anti Aircraft batteries, Coastal Batteries and Bomb disposal. 1200 killed on duty. Not all like Dads Army.

More Nathan, I found this vid quite interesting.

Deadloch on Amazon. Aussie detective drama. Bloody brilliant and funny.

Happy New Year you Mudder Fudders.

I won't be encountering any drunks tonight, hopefully. I have a UCC new qualified clinician, so it will be catheters, end of life type of stuff tonight. Morphine and the good stuff will be issued I guess. Old pissers and and old dyers. Hoping not to have to chaperone or help with patients. Much prefer hiding in the car doing the paperwork when to the gooey stuff is happening.

Working tonight and tomorrow night

I didn't say it was a logical want. I am just fixated.

Just finished watching the Winter King. I liked it, bit slow in the end but entertaining nontheless.

I am trying hard to get over being obsessed with getting a 1970's XL185. Can't afford it, don't need it, prolly wouldn't ride it much, but want it

Amen, prolly 1980 for me but I get the sentiment.

Well I am on my 3rd bike this year. Started on the Himalayan, got the CB500F in January then traded up to the Hornet in early October. Been a bit of a whirlwind really but really happy where I ended up. Love the Hornet and intend to keep it for some time. I have had a shit year health wise, won't bore you with the details, but on the mend now. My family is all good, youngest has a grip on her mental health issues and is happy, middle one is happy, as always, and in College starting her last year. Oldest has a steady job now, which is something I though I never would say, and appears to be happy. The Darkness is ok and the dear boy is in rude health so all as good as I could expect really. Had an adventure with a different job that didn't work out so back out of hours with the NHS. Happy in my work so can't moan to much.
