The milk protesters are annoying me. A local family dairy is worried they will turn up on their doorstep one day. great enterprise you can get milk and milkshakes out of a vending machine all done on premises, the local arla/muller run dairies have had issues I use the local family one £1 per litre of full fat milk and just reuse the bottles they also supply for £1 it's pasturised not the raw milk another farm locally does that too but as I get diverticular issues I steer clear of that

Why do Honda’s have this “bad taste” about them?
MikeHorton replied to Troy's topic in Motorbike Chat
I think as everyone says go with what makes you happy. Love my Africa twin, engine on the tracer 900 was really lovely but for 2 up touring the AT wins hands down and does what I need so thats what matters. Lots moan about its switchgear but didn't take long to get used to nobody moans about the keys on a keyboard? And most stuff I don't need to adjust on the fly love the electronic suspension v easy to use -
Roller coaster week for me what have I missed. Had my heart op on Monday morning as it was cancelled last time I kept it all quiet couldn't deal with another knockback. Managed to do as I was told and Got out yesterday, jut had the triple bypass aorta was left alone and the leaky valve not as leaky as thought so left that too. Wow I love pain relief at the moment it's my bestest friend!

As @Gerontioussays wouldn't buy from them but worth going to see the variety of bikes, pretend you are interested and sit on as many as you can to see if it's for you. A certain vlogger has superbike shop as his sponsor I don't think that's a wise idea looking at their reviews. Proves sometimes people will advocate anyone for a few quid!

Yes my 1st mortgage in 2000 was around the 5% mark. Unfortunately savings rates don't match at the moment hence I thought let's pay some extra off the mortgage debt. I remember my dad saying 15% was the norm in 60s 70s
-
I ended up opting to burn a load of savings and paid the 10% extra off. Renewed with current lender at 5.05% and it only made a difference of £10 per month. I couldn't move to a other lender as I have a bolt on mortgage for an extension we had 2 yrs ago apparently you can only have mortgages with one lender. Both now tie in for renewal dates in 3 years. We will be foregoing a holiday next year etc but worth going down this route I think

Australian GS g'day

Well it turns out my current 1.89% mortgage deal expires in January. I've spent the day sorting out what we will do and sealed a deal which although not ideal has nmsoftened the blow. Its worth checking when your current deals end and working out what gamble to take

They seem to be upping there game. What are the service intervals like? I'm sure it's not an issue if they are shorter if you do your own servicing

Let them fly past then filter past them at the next junction or lights

I had put the bike away until next year as I was waiting on major surgery which was cancelled. A week of of and on rail strikes looming I thought bike it is. All seemed to go well riding Into my new place of work. However leaving today I realised my gloves were an odd pair, as I zipped my jacket up the zip fell off that really topped it off

Do I spy a vstrom?

Great bike to start off with enjoy and as always post some photos!

That was like British gas with our boiler we used a local guy instead no hidden agenda just quoted us a genuine price and could chose our own boiler rather than just one brand! @Mississippi Bullfrog find that with most tradesmen a lot don't turn up or even let you know annoying waste of a day that can be

It's a mess all round. I admit I couldn't vote for Labour last time round I couldn't vote for corbyn and Abbott and still think what would it have been like if they did get in with his views on Russia. When a PM bows out is should go back to another election the tory party were able to pick their own cabinet and leader that's not right. Politics is broken im afraid

Good advice there I was always told the same make sure you can stop in the distance you can see and half the distance on a single track
