I didn’t even isolate my house power before changing my distribution board. Trust me I am / was an electrical engineer.

So cafe ‘Junction 1 Ten’ counts as both 1 & Ten? 

@Hoggs May say one OR ten.

Pubs and cafes with numbers #4. Four penny shop hotel

Pubs and cafes with numbers #5. Five rivers restaurants 

@Hoggs quick question. Is a cafe/pub "fifteen " usable for a 1 or 5. We all know fifteen is 1&5 so?
I know I am being a bit “creative” with this.

Happy to give you six easy suggestions;

 

Traditional Manx Cottage, Cranstal Rd, IOM, 9JRF+59

IOM Motor Museum, Jurby, IOM, 9F5H+R5

The footbridge at the Bungalow, A18, 7G2P+JP2

Cafe Bar Two Six, Airport Way, Derbyhaven, Ballasalla, IOM, 39MP+6J

Peel Castle, West Quay, Peel, IOM 68G2+CM

Murray's Motorcycle Museum, Main Road, IM4 1EN, IOM

Is that because you intend to keep your number next year and you have already taken the photos.

This is where I go when looking up on changes etc.

Unfortunately, for motorists, there are sections in the Highway Code for pedestrians and cyclists and I suspect very few, if any, pedestrians read them and probably few cyclists.

these 2 groups hear on the news that they “have priority “ and so assume everyone else is going to give way to them regardless.

oopps sorry this should probably have gone in the rant section.

Hi and welcome 

Had a Cardo, then when I changed my helmet got a Sena to fit into the Neotec.
in my opinion the Cardo is the better unit.

Hi and welcome. Nice bike

I used GUNK engine degreaser.

Well done @Fletch44

Hi and welcome 

I put retired when I finished work and insurance went down, slightly, but that was mainly due to removing “commuting to a place of work” and just listing SDP as use.

I managed to get a delivery whilst SWMBO was at work. 

 

Any suggestions how I hide it?

 

Its about 10 foot long. 

Stand it in the corner and fix a jacket and hat to it. SWMBO will never notice it.

There's a knack, usually flip off your boots

Can’t really take your boots off at the side of the road when it’s started to rain.  Boots were not a problem as I keep a couple of plastic carrier bags in the top box. Put these over the boots and then they just slide down the legs.
