Off on Thursday.

Taking the Chunnel then meandering down to Barcelona. Wife is flying and hopefully we'll meet up on Monday.

I'll be using the BMW PD which I hope is now fully sorted. (Except the clutch is potentialy an issue, but I don't want to rush and fit it so I'm packing the friction plate just in case).

Wish me luck.

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

I do wish you luck.
To put things in context, today I have been trying to rebuild/enlarge my wood store for the 2 tonnes of oak arriving in the morning ( in between sodding heavy downpours).
Tomorrow, If I can believe the weather forecast,after stacking all of that oak I will be investigating my oil leak, plastering ACF 50 everywhere and hopefully cram in a ride in this really odd weather.
Enjoy !

Have a great time, Keith. I think I'll be heading North about the same time you're heading South. Except I'll be in a van on the Autoroutes, while you'll be terrorising the D roads... :smt003

Good luck, you are braver than I to risk going on a bike with problems, have a good time.
I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"
