Was looking forward to a day of paperwork after getting back from the Fatherland late last night, but ended up in Leighton Buzzard on a shout instead. I am so tired right now.

Not a bad day today. Hard day at work, good session at the gym, but I'm feeling good.. Got the paperwork for a contract renewal, which always cheers me up.

Slight downside of having to deal with an unhappy purchaser on eBay, but it seems to be sorting it's self out without going to a formal thingie..

Had to sort the wife and her car out yesterday as some woman probably on her phone decided to drive into the back of her, not much damage to the car visually but it's being picked up on Tuesday for a full inspection at the garage, the wife is a bit stiff this morning but hopefully she's not too bad, can't believe our luck some fecker trying to knock me off my scooter Thursday and then some other fecker trying to shorten the wife's car yesterday

Bloody hell bratty your having some bad luck hope you and your mrs is ok

Cheers mate she got up and she's on her way to work so she can't be feeling too bad but she manages her own store and feels she has to set an example so if she'd broken both legs she'd probably crawl in, I'll see how she is when she gets home after a manic day standing on her feet all day.

Graham if I was you I'd stay in for a few days! It's a jungle out there.

Bloody hell mate.. Glad neither the scooter or car incident where bad and that you and your wife a survived unscathed.. I would leave the CB at home for a few days if I where you...

It's a good job you live up to your signature though..

Sorry to hear that Bratty hope she feels a lot more looser in the next couple of days mate. Rotten string of bad luck your having at the moment

Just seen this mate. Sorry to hear of more bad luck. Glad to hear Shaz is OK and hope everything gets sorted out soon. The good thing is your both OK, bikes and cars can be fixed, but we can take a little longer so comforting to know all are well.

I had but an bid in for some boots on ebay. Then someone came in and bid to inflate the price. That person has bid before against the same selller so I've reported it. I want to make sure it's legit.

just got back from the excel bike show , not as big as the NEC one , but while I was in the press office Wayne Gardner came in said hello shook my hand and left , I was that gobsmacked I never even got a picture . I had a good day photography wise too, I should be able to post a link to them once they have been published . Also met Cavetroll briefly which was nice.

Just about to leave for work, have a great day guys whatever you doing

Slept in this morning and took an age to get going, but eventually Mini Gee and myself went and got a bit of shopping, then settled down to watch the rugby from Murrayfield. Good game but somewhat eventful with shortcomings from both sides I think.

Took the kids to the cinema to watch Big Hero 6. Had to push past the massive queue of old slappers (not Tankslappers) waiting to go and froth all over the seats watching Fifty Shades of Shite. I saw 2 blokes in the whole queue, and I'm pretty sure one of them was with his mum!




Nando's afterwards.

Going out to watch a chick flick with your mam ???? It doesn't get much lower than that

Totally screwed my morning up so now has screwed the day up and its put me in a right foul mood due to knowing work is tomorrow and I've wasted a day of my own time!! Lol I think I hate Sundays just as much as Mondays. Hate Sundays because of thinking about work the next day, hate Mondays because of work on the day!! Haha

First day back at work since i got back from Qatar.

Sad times.

First day at work with the kids off school it's gonna be a manic week but feck it I'm off tomorrow.

Flew home. Luckily got back to Darwin before cyclone Lam caused an issue. Going to hit land up there in a day or two. Now just got to swing the body back from nights and prep for my NZ trip!

Unfortunately I have had to cancel exhibition I was planning at the Mallory Park Open day , I was intending on doing it jointly with the navy/marines ( so I could use their awning ) but they cannot attend due to "operational requirements ", however not to be deterred I have managed to get full approval for a joint venture at this years Motorcycle Live at the NEC , Nov 28th - Dec 6th , as well as a huge selection of amazing photographic prints to view (and hopefully buy) we will have a bike from this years TT and a 675 club racer on display and a couple of Marines to guard it all
