You in charge of the weather then? I've actually never been rained on at the Mabon, might be cos it's run by pagans........

I've arranged for a full moon on the 23rd too, so the werewolves should be back abed. :smt002

Not sure if I'll be there now, can't get a bike sorted and I won't do 4 wheels again.

Did think of hiring a bike but the muppets round here think their piles of poo are megabuck exclusives. :smt012

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

VFR rider ...... loves his viffer he does ..... prime candidate to be "converted"

It is.. Hoping to be in one piece in time for this meet as she wants to ride over under her own power. :smt004
And I don't think you'll be able to convert him.. Even though when he had a go on the Falco last week, he came back with a BIG beaming smile from ear to ear..lol.. :smt003

chatted with Miss Isle of Wight TT this morning - both of us are off on the friday so that makes thing easier to plan

I have sourced a small fridge to use for the week end.. .so that will keep assorted bits of dead animal cold

I will cook an all in one stew for friday night

I will also consider getting a poly pin of ale in....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
