Digging found's for new path/slabs to rear of house on Saturday, watched a bit of rugby, firewooding, then shopping in Tesc*'s at the back of 22:00hrs. Much cheapness and no squalling brats with bloated 'carers'!

Today, I've finished off the found's, large bonfire of cuttings from the 'Kilmarnock' willow, stove lit in the garage and the fruit of my labours is on site, in Techy Help? forum. Assistance welcome!

Next doors stray black cat, 'Darky' in PC circles, or 'The Black Mechanic' in neighbourly terms, has a penchant for assisting in workshops when rebuilding motorcycles, Landies or Fergies, had a sore leg yesterday. Pleased to say appears to be healing and the Collared doves were given a chasing today from the solitary hens feeding trough!   The 'The Black Mechanic' sleeps in a nest box next to the last hen and has been known to incubate an egg!   002, NO!

Kat out for a spin on the Boy Bros, and Jim of BMW R80RT monolever with 178,000+ miles on the clock came round for a tea and blether with pictures from his recent paragliding some with motor 'back pack'! Hairy

Boy Bros running well. Rest of the fleet either in bits, being fixed, or recalcitrant, brats! 

Watched Baldrick digging holes in the Fens, bit more bikes, then battered the 7 bells out of the keyboard.

Away to sheet alley with cocoa, book on 'Topography' (2sides max! ) and 

Keep boppin', Bill.

Quiet weekend here - didn't even touch any of the bikes.

Considered going to the Scottish Bike Show but couldn't muster enough enthusiasm. Got a call offering me a free ticket for the rugby but wasn't able to go as I had some pre-arranged taxiing of my son to various things.

weather exceptional over weekend. stop
SWMBO, observing said weather, decrees a full weekend of gardening. stop
26 barrow loads of horse sh1t wheeled over from next door. stop
veggy plot (nearly) all dug over and covered with sh1t. stop
various fruit trees pruned. stop
mower serviced, and run round (mainly to tidy up, and clear up dead leaves). stop
hen house cleaned up.....5 compost bins turned. new wormery started .stop
knackered back brings proceedings to a stop . stop
lots of brownie points in the bag (will be put towards trip to northwest200). stop

and today...monday, biked down to snetterton to watch people with more money than sense flog porches, bentleys, lamborghinis, tvr's etc round on a track day (which, according to a friend who had taken his carrera. cost £140 for the day, with an open pit lane....seemed good value..... as long as you can afford the £200 worth of fuel he put in during the day!!).... and all to achieve a best lap (while i was there) only 3 seconds faster than my best time on my srx6 track iron..... still, they enjoyed themselves.....probably all out of work futures traders!
