Trip to b&q this morning (yes they were open, poor sods!!) to buy some concrete and fix an exterior windowsill that has somehow had a giant chunk fall off in the middle of the night :sad:

The only thing I miss from Norfolk. Dry weather on New Year’s Day. 😃

Bloody Norfolk mates posting photos of their rides around North Norfolk when all the roads around here have great swathes of black ice on them.

 

Still, I got chance to go for a bit of a stroll …

1st day back to work since October and rail strikes so the bus it was as no parking which is affordable close to my workplace 😭

Good afternoon.

 

Worked last week, but the last 10 days are a weird blur. Landed back to news a breaker panel is running 12 weeks late on a major hospital refit... Yikes... But other than that, fires to put out are low. 

 

Had an ace gift from my girlfriend who was in the Isle of Wight visiting family. My trip to Japan this Spring now has a 2 day trip to Tokyo Disney. Which will really break up the non-stop cultural experiences. I'm very active, so on holidays if I'm not doing something from quad bikes, jet skies, rollercoasters etc, I tend to get a bit disinterested, though I try to not show it. Really caught me off guard as this is "her" big holiday. So it's now 1-0, and I've got to come up with something big for her birthday that she celebrates out there. :scratch:

I've tried more than once to suggest she learn to ride if I put a small Honda in front of her, but it was firmly no dice!

Well good morning 😜..

I doubt my work will be stopping anytime soon...

If it does it won't be doing good for anyone IMHO.

Taxed and rode the R1 today, 8 weeks ahead of schedule.

Scooter is off the road, waiting for new pads so been using OHs car for the last two days.

She needed her car today so I was going to use the M3, got in it at 7.15, started it up and a rear light warning came up and I noticed the brake lights were stuck on. Restarted it a couple of times and it didn't fix itself.

Gave that up and quickly taxed the R1, dragged it out the garage, checked the tyre pressures and set off, still got to work on time.

Good evening. It’s a Sunday and I’ve been a bit busy hitting walls with an SDS drill and chisels. It’s a bit worrying when you encounter electrical wiring that does this…

 

And for those of you who know about old buildings needing to breathe, the second photo is the non-breathable cement that had to be chipped off to reveal the stone walling.

Went to the classic bike show at Newark after @Trooper74mentioned it the other week. 12 quid advanced tickets went in the car sadly still not ready for 2 wheels. Entered a £2 raffle to win a joey Dunlop colours grom! Was quite a good day just nice to get out.
