Shinobi vs Dragon Ninja at the Reading Festival was one of my favourite memories, then I discovered the bloke was a nonce and I haven't listened to their music since.
29 hours after the first jab at the Racecourse and I feel like I've got a hell of a hangover, I wouldn't mind so much but I haven't touched a drop for about 8 weeks.
The vaccination numbers being over 350k are brilliant considering it was expected to be a low number this week due to the supply issues. Mine is tomorrow, nervous about it but so glad it's happening.
Wife got jabbed today in Eastbourne at the Welcome Building, 7 minutes from her booked appointment time to her ringing me saying she was good to go. Marvelous!
I've not done the NC500 but I've done both when going up that way.
I've driven up from Worthing to Fort William (in 10 hours, stopping twice for fuel), once you get past Preston on the M6 the drive gets a bit nicer, then once you get to Glasgow it turns a bit naff but once you're up in the...
My back garden backs on to a school field and I must admit it was a nice thing to hear.
No, I'm not a peado. Yes, in 3 weeks time I'll be sick of it again.
It's on the bucket list of things to do, been going to the West Highlands for years, mentioned it a number of times on here but I fear Bozza is right, the best time to do it has already passed.
I'm back up that way in June, all being well, but I won't be doing the NC500 with 2 small children...
Definitely feels like it's going to be a case of defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. At best possibly conceding a last minute equaliser to make it feel like 2 points dropped.
Still got a booking ready to go for June 21st in the Highlands, hoping the English timeline holds steady and Scotland follow suit to an extent. If not it'll be a week in Manchester with the in laws spending most of it in the lake district.
If I had the money I'd be looking at 2-3 year old, lowish mileage from a stealer with FSH and a warranty for a year.
When I bought my current car a year ago I didn't have the money so I ended up with an 8 year old Mondeo with 100k on the clock, I'll service it myself and run it until it dies...
We went from a system boiler with cold water tank in the loft to a Vaillant combi boiler with a small tank in it as a kind of hallway house as we've got 2 bathrooms and it helps with the drop in pressure if more than one thing is on at the same time and weather compensation to control the...
Once you factor in Tax/NI you'd have to earn roughly £3k extra to cover just your fuel costs, let alone other associated costs of running a vehicle for the commute so I'd look at it as £28-£33k DOE for the new place, and the time saved in getting to and from work.
November was my last ride and I'm missing it terribly, keep on telling myself that I should get out and ride again but the black dog just keeps on getting the better of me.
