I'm cleaning my bike, ready for another 45 minute trip to the menders, probably in the rain,either way, it'll be a good ride.

Staying at a pub site called tucker's grave and going to 2 different railways 🛤

We're in the tap.

Someone's just done a burnout and taken a fall. Big cheer went up

[Mawsley]

Well I watched us slide out of the FA Cup and off the top of the Championship in the space of a couple of hours. I think I’m beginning to not like football very much. I need an alternative hobby.

Ah right, that's not you singing at the front of the picture then?  @Fiddlesticks

 No, the band are doing a fine job on their own.

Was I only tagged to make me jealous I assume.

[S-Westerly]

Well this has been a crap weekend.  Bunged by France at the death for a penalty that wasn't and dumped out of the FA Cup by the people from Manchester.

And my speeds being knocked back by a bloody big swell on the nose. Rubbish all round and I'm not allowed to flog anyone to work of my emotional angst. Capt Bligh had it alright.

My bad - meant to tag the chap above on account of the ruddy great red tanker in the background. Thought he might have been home already.

While the weather is as crap as it is at home I'm quite happy to be away apart from the lack of flogging of course.

Bit slow on the uptake.  Only just noticed the wee red tanker in the background. She's a chemical products tanker heading into Ellesmere / Stanlow and called the Songa Pearl. Size wise she's 17,539 tonnes deadweight. For reference mine is 158,492 tonnes.

My boat is 48 kg. 

 

I'll keep quiet about it.

Well if I actually owned it apart from just being the driver maybe. Also MB's will be faster than mine in a decent breeze. Certainly accelerate faster! 0-10 in about an hour.

Crashes are things we go to great lengths to avoid. This one was in 2018 and killed everyone on board when it exploded. it was called the Sanchi.

[Fiddlesticks]

Wow! Take care out there. It's a mean old scene.

[Mississippi Bullfrog]

People forget how dangerous seafaring is. Its one reason we observe Sea Sunday every year in July. Virtually everything we rely on daily is shipped into this country.  

[Mississippi Bullfrog]

Occasionally I win things for going round in circles rather quickly.

 

 

[Mawsley]

I’m watching some lad going around Morocco on his Honda AT on the YouTubes. 
 

I think I’ll be spending the weekend working out if and when I can go, how, and whether I want to do it solo. 
 

Fes/Fez looks blindingly good - and I’ve always wanted to go to the Roman town nearby.

To all those who dont pay for tv channels and sport, ITV are showing Moto GP live this weekend from Portugal. 

Saturday ITV3 showing Moto GP sprint race then on Sunday ITV4 are showing Moto 2, 3 and Moto GP live.

last weekend was good, Cast were great.  The football not so much so, local team lost and so did my sons team.  

 

This weekend is a bit less busy, the main thing is the Cup Semi Final on Sunday morning  . massive game for my sons team this week and really hope they get to the final.
