Road around the back had closed completely now due to landslides, so proper stuck here again. Let’s hope the pub helicopters food in again . We are good for about 4-5 days but is going to get sketchy soon.

... the car was showing about 1/3 so I brimmed it... £63 (doh) the biggest 'ooof' was when I filled up at Tesco, then found the BP a mile down the road was the same price, there's usually a 5p/L difference. We have solar panels so a smart charger and electric car are looking good, a smart charger ...

Good points, Monty. We do still have to change the way we live though. There are already far too many single person cars using our roads, regardless of what they run on. Many places are very close to gridlock conditions at peak times. I think that will change with the generations, my kids ...

Watching the dancing wheelie bins in the road

... miles without being in serious pain... That sounds an excellent result mate. Is that therapy a single course application ( to put your body on the road to recovery) , or a periodic therapy that you'll return to if or when the effects wear off.? It can be either. The hope is that this is all that ...

He's a very very talented rider.

Think he raced BSB or a support class for a while but its his off road stuff i find most interesting.

He doesn't go easy on his project KTM 950 either, I can't wheelie with confidence on the best road and he's doing it on that muck!

That doesn't sound particularly encouraging.

Starmer was set upon by a large group of right wing nutters. It's a good job the police were there

A few of them can be heard adding why he prosecuted journalists.

Johnson's words have worked.

We're going down the Trump road of politics.

... out with the Bull Dog lot.... Dressed for rain and it came ha ha, still it did dry for a short period on the way back. Not often I get taken on a road I have never been on before,,, so that was fun :) Could not put the bike away without a good wash, it was disgusting, so much crap on the roads :(

More HGV training, it's coming together nicely and a good job too as I have the off-road section of the test tomorrow morning, it won't take long to detach the trailer, park next to it, inspect the trailer and re-attach it. Then there's a reverse park and done! I'm ...

... a bike accident on our way there. Fire/Rescue and Ambo’s already on scene. Bike was pretty rooted. Then back the long way via a barely used road that follows the river for a while, so decided it was safe enough to get up it (Thruxton) and enjoyed listen to the Vance and Hines song echoing ...
