Fueling sounds like something you could fix with a Power Commander and some Dyno time,

Tescos Laughing

As far as my mate's wife allows him to go with me. I struggle to get any long spells free to go any distance. Nothing is really planned at the moment. Just be days here and there with the odd overnighter.

One day I'd like to go further afield.

Peed off, bike broke. I think battery failure. So I got a new battery. Accidentally fitted neg to pos and pos yo neg. Big spark. Now engine management light is on and it is powered up alright now but won't start. Think I may have blown something.

Tell to me 1000 times how stupid, ignorant and a complete f*ck up of a brain I have. How could anyone do such a thing with crossed positive and negative, unless they were particularly thick? ECU has taken a hissy fit? Fuses are ok..

Sad

On a brighter note, I got my dentures today so am almost ready to go on my strange date with the strange lady. I'll let you know when I build up the courage to actually meet her. Really don't know if I can be arsed with a female friend to fuck up my selfish life.

I've seriously got PTSD from my failing bike, or failing owner.

Celtic did well tonight.

It's in the garage now, trying somebody new. My two previous mechanics peeved me off. I'll see if this guy actually communicates unlike the other two. He seems fine and I can tell he is knowledgeable.

I love Clint Eastwood. Might watch that film now.

After 6 years Jane has initiated a telephone conversation. Shocked I was shocked and said I couldn't until tomorrow. Too much chemical inhibition tonight. Imagine if we got the bed stage and I couldn't raise one. It's been that long.

Too much info I know.

And on a better note, I've managed to get my pal to construct me a tottie wee hoose for my VFR.

I may name the bike something. What was the last thing you ate?

Looks nice but I'd have thought you'd want it longer and wider...

Hopefully she doesn't say the same!

Still alive this month. Not even close to an accident Not actually been out on the bike that much recently, not good.

Things have gone weird in my life.My relationship with Jane has been put on the back burner I still haven't met her yet, I think the burner is maybe going out. She has got sense after all. Crying or Very sad

Anyway, feck her. This happened to me, I kid you not. Never had anything close to this happen in my sad little life.

It started 3 weeks ago and went like this. Bullet points only I won't bore you and risk a ban with the details.

I wanted to phone my son's carer called Deonne.

Phoned the wrong number.

A Dionne answered strangely though, I didn't recognise the voice. It was not the Deonne I was trying to call.

Fucking strange.

Check my phone and I have two Dionnes in my contacts. Odd.

I then get a text from the Dionne that was the wrong number. Her words were 'Who the fuck is Struan?'

My words back were 'who the fuck is Dionne?'

She phoned me Shocked

We eventually realise that she had put her number in my phone when I was blazing at the Lets Rock Scotland festival a few weeks ago. I had no recollection.

Fine nice to meet you and pleasantries and all that. Bye.

She then phones back and tells me that she has booked a taxi for 9pm Shocked

For fucks sake, I'm not sure, is she a maniac? does she just want rogering? I don't care.

Give her my address, it's about 40 minutes away.

She arrives and a great night ensued, Upto 5 am with Alexa, in between consenting adults games.

3 weeks later And we're still seeing each other.

She's a nymphomaniac I kid you not there is no way to keep up with her.

Even in the drinking alcohol stakes she ruins me.

I love this girl

I am 54 soon to be 55. She is 34 with mo cellulite yet, bonus. Is 20 years difference wrong? I don't really care I'm having fun Laughing

Long term I like being single to much to see it lasting. Already she has taken up time that I would normally use for being out on the bike.

Will report back hopefully alive next month.

I've really taken to her, she drinks me under the table, rolls a joint for me first thing. She is also a dirty lady. She changes my 19 year old sons soiled nappies Shocked , lets me lie in.

It's been quite a few weeks now and she is one of the very few people who don't annoy me to death after a few hours in their company. So far anyway, no doubt we'll get pissed off with each other soon enough.

What do you think? She's 34 I'm now 55 ffs

I have not been out on my bike for six weeks.

Monthly check-in, still alive. Laughing

Not been out on the bike for ages, too many leaves around and it's miserable and cold, no excuse I know.

Looking for a 440V 3 phase motor or nuclear power plant to power the rampant rabbit! I had to get it because I'm not as virile as I used to be Embarassed

The relationship won't last long as I literally can't be bothered. Happy with my son and the 2 dogs, less stress.

This is me.

Same for me. :/ I need to check on struan80's stream-of-thought ramblings on a regular basis, something needs to be done! I thought maybe it was because the last post had been deleted, but seemingly not.

One post from Teflon Mike would do it. Maybe we can coax him out of retirement. Wink
