Spent the day sorting a space for the new lathe and prepping the rig for its epic journey tomorrow
I raced Enduro when I was younger, rode an IT 175 Yamaha, good for 70 mph couple of pics from races as followsDone some trials riding & loved it. Better than motocross. Wanted to do some long distance enduro riding… may have to get a trial sidecar out fit for fun. Oh the hi cap can fit a quad in due to the wide tail gate
If you don't want it you can donate it on to us as we spend a lot of time watching DVDs in Frogland as their telly is so cr@p!!Been donated a 'home cinema system'. Blooming useless!! It's actually a dvd player with integrated surround sound. Unless you want to watch a dvd, it's pretty much a doorstop
I couldn't help but smile at this post.Last night met a fine girl for a date in Oxford. Had a great time not leaving restaurant 'til midnight. She arrived with big smiles as had just bought a brand new Evoque...!! Have to say I really like the very latest Evoque, not for me, for their design lines and this was in a very attractive blue-grey colour with super duper alloy wheels. Had a look inside...the thing lights up like a Christmas tree with ignition on...similar to the 69 amigos. Apparently JLR now offer client training days to learn what all the soft function buttons do [utterly ridiculous].
We said our gone midnight under the mistletoe goodbyes and I headed home. Came off A34, heading along local country B road and noticed a Rozzer mobile parked nose-in in a farm yard entrance, slowed down, passed Rozzer mobile and continued on my way. 5mins later a car drove up very close to me and followed for about a mile then it too lit up like a Christmas tree, this time the lights were BLUE !! Indicated and pulled up. Got out of the car to be greeted by a couple of traffic plods. I welcomed their greeting by replying, "Good evening Orificers, is everything okay...any reason why I've been stopped?" They replied they were "Looking for a car..." I thought this somewhat odd and confirmed, "Well you're not having my car..." They laughed saying it must be another car they're looking for
I wished them a good weekend and a happy Christmas.
Q? Is this the standard of plodding rozzer intelligence these days...going out onto the public highway to look for a car of no name? It's bloody obvious that one would find a 'car' on the public highway. Or, were they just bored and pulled me over for a bit of seasonal fun...?

I do understand that you'd quite like a lickle holiday/booze cruise though!!!
I have a neighbour who runs a DPD franchise so he may be able to organise pick up and delivery! and he gets very upset if we don't use him for our deliveries, AND he refuses to take any money.

Stupidly we cannot have a telly in Frogland cos, even though we have no aerial to connect it to, it would still be seen as us being able to watch TV ,in which case we'd have to pay yet €120 a year more, like a TV licence.One mans junk is another mans treasure
Sorry mate!Well aren't you the fun police!!!
