All the things that have been ordered over the last month or so

Banjo bolts with bleeders (brake mod to do)
200 ml automotive syringe (pressure bleeding the brakes)
Windscreen wipers for the 4wd
Hemp seed massage oil (that's already paid dividends (blush) )
Couple of pressies for Jess

And I have to take back my rant about Auspost. The jeweller than I bought the pressie off for Jess had addressed my parcel as

Kurrajong
Kurrajong
Kurrajong
NSW 2758

No wonder they had trouble!!

We took delivery of a Nespresso machine, milk frother and 200 pods between the 5 of us at work this morning.

3x cheaper than the coffee from the cafe but probably nicer. It pays for itself after 20 capsules (Y)

When it's good coffee and it's right there in the office it's just too easy to have a couple of extras here and there, still way cheaper than the crappy coffee shop dross though and better.

That's good to know. I wonder how many people use it?

Moving away from Dolphin Rape - Mr Postman bought me 2 items today, finally got the v5 for my bike after a major cock up by the dealers which involved them registering the bike to the wrong person followed by the DVLA saying they hadn't received the correction paperwork AND some replacement vents for my Shoei as one broke off the other morning so needed relacing
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

Today I had my car tax through, first time to ever tax a vehicle as soon as I get the letter through. So the grand total of £0.00 has left my account because it's free!! I love having a 2016 1lt car!

Blade I totally agree mate. I really really really want one now! However insurance are ridiculous prices or not even insuring me at all. They say It must be garaged or 30 years old...luckily I am 30 in 5 month so will be looking around again then!!

Yeah will be a good time to buy in January. Always quite at dealers then but they still need the cash flow. Ive had them sell at a loss cos they need the cash back into the business.

They still have rates, bills and wages to pay so need the cash flow.

Rear paddock stand for the Multi.

Bought it on eBay at 10 am yesterday and Jess just called to say she cleared the PO Box and it's there already (9.20am next day!) luckily she has a Jeep so she's managed to fit it in the back. Box looks huge!! Got to love mornings when a cute girl personally delivers your motorbike related eBay purchases!
