Hi all I'm selling some of my kit and thought I'd offer it to my fellow Slappers before sticking them on Evil Bay. Here we have a pair of Spada Enforcer WP gloves size L. These are in nearly new condition - I think I wore them maybe twice. These gloves were winners of the Ride Best Buy award a few y...

Hi all I'm getting rid of some of my kit and thought I'd offer it to my fellow Slappers before sticking it on the Bay of Fleas.... Here we have a pair of Alpinestars SP-1 gloves size XL. Colour white, black and blue. They've still got the tags on them and have never been worn apart from trying them ...

Now sold. Thanks for looking.

Ah the joy of the keyboard warrior! I doubt there's a serving man or woman in either Britain or America that would want to rise to that provocation. They understand the consequences and sacrifices involved.

Pork chops, mash, steamed veg, homemade onion gravy and homemade spiced apple sauce. Buuuurrrpppp!!!

Yep - had a burger there last week. It was very good. Might pop down later as I can't be arsed to cook today!

Toasted sourdough from Loaf with marmalade from Cuffufle Preserves (made a mile away from beermonster Towers in Selly Park). Simple, but bloody lovely!

I noticed that the cafe on Fordhouse Lane has reopened under new management so decided to soak up last night's booze with a fry up. Three sausages, three bacon, 2 eggs, black pudding, fried bread, hash brown, beans, tomatoes, 2 toast and a cup of tea for a fiver is remarkable value but I do feel lik...

The aging rocker in me saw the title of this post and thought you meant this mob!

New patio!

Couldn't be arsed to cook so popped down to the Oak for a burger (very good) and a couple of pints (even better).

Back in the office. Boss is at a conference so I can get on with some work.

It's actually pretty good. Not nearly as dry as you'd think from the cover.

Starting my dissertation with a spot of light reading.

My team are a load of berkeley hunts!

My mate's band is playing at the Vic in town tonight so I might go along to that.

Saturday will be a Costco run and a bit of a shamble around.

It's hardly a new issue - some wealthy, powerful men who can have anybody sometimes choose the taboo.
