I receive 10 or more calls where machine telling me I did not report and pay my tax and will be prosecuted if don’t call that number.
I am not tax payer as I spend more that 6 months outside the country. I regularly report my days and complete my tax papers as well I payed voluntary contributions to nhs and pension founds.
worst thing is that I have reported that number to Tax and revenue office, but calls are still coming 6 months later.

Jes it is, he was one of the racers supposed to race next day, instead spent several days in hospital in coma.
Dont know if he was naked, but he was more dead than alive.

Many things you don’t learn during that basic training for driving licence. It would take at least 6 months.
that basic training for driving licence is just to give you idea about driving/riding nothing else. Anyone interested for more will spend significant amount of money to get knowledge and gain confidence and experience.
When ever I go to Croatia, I visit this place http://www.99racingschool.com/index.php?l=en
I did it first time 20 years ago and was amazed how much you can learn in just one day. Obviously depend on your existing experience and skills.
If you ever go there it is worth to try, and it’s not expensive.

As I said before, not loud exhausts, it’s not noice that annoys people. Just motorcycle it self. Even if we get electric one day, there will be hate against the motorcycle and bikers.
Perception is that we are all outlaws, rebels. That will be difficult to change.
I got aftermarket exhaust that is on same decibels as stock one, but all my neighbours said it’s louder. Even my wife said the same. It’s useless

Absolutely! I think a lot of Brits seem to think that it's somehow inferior because it's foreign......but the reality is quite the opposite.
Though I think that Portugal is way ahead of Spain in terms of education.........but that could be due to the mentality of the people here rather than the system itself.
Except regular dental checks that are done in uk, everything more than that I go to Croatia. 10 times cheaper for top quality.

Bearing in mind that I rode it round on Sunday and today......and it only took €2.70 of fuel!
This thing is insane......never known a bike to use so little fuel before. It uses so little fuel, it makes you think something is wrong somehow!
Maybe it’s diesel

Never had a single decent coffee in Colombia as it all seem to go off for export. Two years drinking nothing but instant shit.
Ven was very decent though.
I didn’t have a good guide then

In the late 90's I was there every couple of weeks. It was pretty good especially Puerto la Cruz. I was last there in 2018 just before it went into sanctions and it was dire.
I was there early 90’s Puerto la Cruz, Puerto Cabello, Laguaira, last time late 90’s. That was good time there

So you still sitting alongside in Belfast or gone someplace warmer?
No since september ship went to Germany, Mukran in Baltic, but we will go to China by the end of December or early January.
ship will get Chinese flag and crew to cruise in China by the time rest of the world wake up and allow us to cruise.
so far we were lucky to keep our jobs and salaries, but if we don’t start cruise soon all ships will go to Chinese market.
fingers crossed

Bought one of these for someone with the same problem n they said it’s somehow cooler than not wearing anything. I think it’s silk though so that’d explain it’s wicking non stinking properties.You could get them TMBF buff instead,

Problem with ex partners is they are not always the most reliable, I could have served time and never been allowed to see my kids again if the court had believed a word from her, yes we ended up in court.
Ahhhh I hear you say but that's just one, I had another who wanted me done too when it ended, she turned into a proper bunny boiler, I even had her mam threatening to stab me, luckily it was recorded on my answer machine.
As for tattoo's I personally hate them and have told the wife, who has a small one, when I'm in charge of social cleansing I'm starting with the tattoo brigade
Yes the coin has two sides, my ex manage to create so much drama, I couldn’t see my kids since they were 6 and 2 years old. Beside I left them a house brand new one more than 150 square metres, brand new car, £850 alimony a month and list goes on. I never controlled her or physically or mentally abused her but was treated as criminal. Fortunately how kids grown up they realised that mum is the psycho, however too many years were lost.
sometimes all of accusations are just a weapon for revenge.

When I was first at sea there were a lot of crusty old jolly jacks with tats that looked awful. A consequence of age and having them done in a back street tattooist in Singapore after a night on the lash. Fair put me off. Of course roughty toughty sailors are vanishing fast. I was cast into a slough of despond when I overheard my (male) second mate and an AB discussing the relative merits of various types of hairbands to wear under a safety helmet. What's even further psst a sell by date than gammon? Cos that's me.
The age of real seaman is over, years ago. I remember bosuns and ab’s extinguish cigarets on their palms as ships had wooden hatch covers and lot of decks covered with wood. After dinner all together drinking beer, wine and whiskey watching porns. That vanished long time ago, with alcohol policy and random testing plus so called dry ships. At some point I am glad it’s over as I remember some nasty scenes.
