All joking aside be careful of the massive effect towing has on smaller motors. Cheers Ian I know! Just because I can doesn't mean I would, but at a push in a needs must situation I know I would be legally allowed to Quote

May I suggest the following letter. Dear Jim My mates tell me that my little motorbike is allowed to tow a trailer. Could you fix it for me to try this and any other strange things you can think of? Regards Dynax P.S I also own a small Chinese motorcycle (and have shown strange rubber attire on the interweb!). Good Luck. Cheers Ian 1 Quote

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Our daughter whose baby was due a week last Friday has been in hospital all weekend. Baby showing no sign of being in a hurry to enter this world. I've bought a baby size Triumph T shirt. If baby's any slower I'll have to send the T shirt back and exchange it for a Harley D one. 5 Quote

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Just been through my beehives for the first time this year. All of them have survived, one only just though. Of the others, the one that was barking mad last year is a docile as a kitten and doing very well. The new one I started late in the summer has grown massively and they are rather 'boisterous' to say the least. Which means they are probably going to be good honey producers. I've had to put supers on that one already - supers being the smaller boxes put on top for honey storage. It gives the bees more room in the lower brood chamber for the queen to lay eggs. If they fill it with honey they'll run out of room and swarm. 1 Quote
Steve_M Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 I retrieved the SD card from our wildlife camera, and uploaded the videos. As ever, of mixed quality, but I’m rather pleased with this one. Deer oh deer... 2 Quote

They’ve decimated our “cultivated” garden. Bloody things haven’t got access to the internet so don’t know that they don’t like the stuff we’ve read they’re not fond of. We’re learning, slowly, which things they’re not tempted by. Mahonia, daffodils, primroses, hebe, buddlea, chaenomeles, kniphofia, ... it just makes gardening more challenging. Quote
