Good evening, and having re-stripped and re-sealed the front callipers again, and also taking home a Chinese, it will be good.

That's nice. I hope you'll both be very happy together.

Good moaning - Went 'tagging' yesterday luckily it was overcast and cooler (no rain!). Had a nice F&C meal at the Robin Hood in Sheringham (and a decent pint of 'Proper Job').

Traffic was not too bad (until coming back home). Spoke with a traffic cop about the bike and the 'problems' with young motorcyclists 'terrorising' pedestrians in the town (apparently 'they' are fond of doing wheelies along the main street late evenings). There are not enough local police to stop this from happening as there are similar problems in Comer!

 

Anyhoo, a good day out.

Good afternoon. This morning I have been mostly driving an Aston Martin DBS, a Posche 911 and a Lamborghini Galliardo on a “driving experience” - a birthday gift from my son. It was a short course up and down an airfield runway with a couple of chicanes thrown in to add interest.


Good fun while it lasted.

 

Three different cars giving widely different experiences. The Aston was super cool and smooth, the Porsche quick and fun, the Lambo… recalibrates any notion of what a fast car is - it’s performance way beyond my capabilities.

Funny you should mention Cars, Cars are definitely not my thing, Ive never even had a lesson.

 

The only car Ive ever liked was a Morgan. and even then only because it had a lovely JAP engine stuck to the front. it was quite old.

 

Anyway Ive just been to Vertu Honda and while they were busily fettling, I had a walk round to J&S to waste some time pointing and laughing. A favourite hobby of mine in that dreadful store. And walking past the line of rather glamorous showrooms I spot this and have to admit, painful as it is, that it looks like a lot of fun.

 

I have no idea what it is.. but the car next to it cost £379,000 and was very red. it was also very old. 1972. 

 

anyway.. from the rear it looks like a boat.. but, I didn't take a photo as the reflections were even worse. I wouldn't attempt to go into a place like this as they are apt to call the police when someone like me turns up. Like Im apt to try and stuff a Maserati in my pocket and sneak it out.

 

I should add that it is a brand new 3 wheeler and the card next to it listed the available options.

 

I can almost see myself in one of these.. heading down to the Côte d'Azur for fish and chips and a stick of rock. and then wending my way along the coast to  Cannes for a can of special brew. by the seaside. Thinking how posh I am. mutton dressed as mutton.

Wife test drove and ordered new car.

it bings and bongs about everything seen/ not seen/ thinks and cannot think of all in the name of EU “safety”. To me all it does is distracts me from driving, it reminds me of over bearing HAL ready to bollock or kill me…

Good morning. Today we will be installing pond liner into the newly dug hole in the vegetable garden (we know how to have fun). When I say “we”, I’ll be supervising as I’m struggling to walk after crocking my foot while at judo last night. Ouch! 😕
