Looked at the car for MOT on Monday ..........discs look a bit doubtful for a pass, but I can replace them myself.........but got a hole in 1 sill, only the size of a 1p peice, so i expect a fail on that too, as to the underside of the car I cannot get underneath to see the condition of the parts.

If its going to  cost ££££££,s I will have to raid our funeral fund. 😂 

hole the size of 1p could turn in to a hole the size of a cornflake box .... just sayin.

I expect I will have to get it welded, should not be too big a job.

Without wanting to light the touch paper are you entering your reg correctly. I only ask cos I had the same thing, I was really annoyed. I know my no plates so I knew it wasn't that but my brain flipped two characters so...... 🙈

No errors I've checked on DVLA to see if yesterdays MOT has shown up and it is also checked it's still insured. Like i said it's happened before but only with this bike

I ended up going out for a little spin I've been tweaking the suspension and wanted to try it out . Added some preload to the rear as it seemed to be sitting a little low and i put the standard springs back in the front the progressive ones i fitted years ago i feel were were just too stiff, rides a lot smoother on the rough stuff going to try a bit more preload on the rear tomorrow see how that goes

Rode to Sofia’s today, road partly blocked because of firefighting traffic still finishing off yesterday’s forest fire. It’s come really close to burning off my favourite hills near my place!

Played with the puppies and had some great homemade pizza! Now sitting outside drinking wine and looking at the dark sea!

8 hours and no-ones touched on "playing with Sofias puppys" yet.

For shame Extreme, for shame.

Fitted some goldfren s33 racing pads in the zx6r. I've used the standard ones before without fault but these seem to be rubbing/binding a little. Pistons go back easily with fingers and thumbs and no pressure in the hydraulics. They have plenty of bite on the road. Going to take it for a good run but it's almost out of fuel and it's bloody raining again.

The Goldfrens I fitted to the glide are really good, they are now my brake pad of choice.

All finished....just got to wait for a call now. Could be a couple of months though.

Hopefully you won't have to wait too long, Pete.

I've got to say that I've been really impressed with the healthcare here. Mandy had her first appointment for her gallstones a couple of months back. She had scans done in a couple of weeks,  which confirmed the gallstones, then had a few weeks wait to see the gastroenterologist who decided that surgery was the best option. She then saw the surgeon, who looked at all the files and prodded her stomach to confirm that the diagnosis was good and then asked to set a date for the operation.  Mandy declined the first date proposed, because it was just before her son came over, so the surgeon suggested the next date, which was last Tuesday.

Good luck mate. I'm guessing that they'll meet you somewhere in the middle on the price. Where is the house located?

Message for Pete,

Just seen that Episode 1 of The Prisoner is on today at 7pm (proper BST, not some iffy foreign time zone) on LEGEND FV:41 S:148 V:149 FS:137 BT:39 . Not sure if you can access that over there? I suspect they will run the whole series, they have been playing UFO at the same time of day up till now.

 

Edit

Didn't realise they had made a bad remake, this is the proper 60s one being shown.

Always comes round every few years.

I've had the full series on DVD for over 20 years.

You going to watch "Arrival"?

Second one is "The Chimes of Big Ben".
