I went to have a nap at 7pm and woke up at 1130pm

People who go to a gig and sing at the artist... don't you go to hear them perform? It should be like the old days when people were told to keep their applause to the end

"Spicy" five-minute noodles whose low-rent marketing tactics underplay their Scoville levels until they are actually sliding down your throat.

I believe I still have some ice cream left over from my cup of tea last week

Doctor Terror always knows best, although it's 3pm and I haven't eaten.
That's what music making and surfing does.

Have got a hot-pot sausage casserole on the go and spuds at the ready.
I foresee much trumping later.

Yeah I have a pork stew on the go for later, which I also burnt my oesophagus on that, whilst testing it for flavour as well ... so the ice cream has come in very useful.

I've just to got to make some mash. Or possibly dumplings, depends on his Maj's preference.

So, Miss Borg and I put together our Haynes 4 Cylinder Combustion Engine tonight. I was minded of Bodytard's epic head-strip thread several times.

Eventually all was tight and we fired it up. Suck-squeeze-bang-blow, suck-squeeze-ba... whoa, what's up with #4 cylinder? The exhaust and inlet are opening too close together.

Strip down, careful check (we all have a set of jeweller's loupes, right?) and, oh my Allah, the H cam is misaligned by 90 degrees (1/5th of a circle).

Yes, the flat is aligned on the half-round cam-shaft correctly, yes it's facing the correct way. It's just not made correctly. The cams face: up/down, left/right, right/left, down/left (should be down/up).

You monsters, Haynes. You monsters. How could you?

Bright side is, we spotted it, figured out the problem, and could see why it would be a problem. Most educational mistake ever.

When you spend ages trying to get something to work then realise there was a much simpler solution

Bit of a shit couple of weeks. Had an unexpected death at work which meant there had to a be a police/coroner investigation. On day 14, I mentioned that I should have heard something by now. Got a reply of “Oh – did nobody tell you? You got cleared 2 days ago.” Cheers for letting me worry for longer than necessary!

Son number 2 is recovering from busted ribs following car crash a couple of weeks ago. Is currently riding my Gilera as it’s a more comfortable riding position than his bike. Had a mishap – and now has an ACJ dislocation as well. My poor Gilera is a bit battered.

Son number 1 knackered his back at work.

Then yesterday, hubby got distracted by an elephant at the side of the road! Tried to ride around a car as he didn’t have room to brake. Almost made it. Didn’t come off, but now has 2 broken toes, a gear pedal folded in half and a floppy foot peg.

Not important in the grand scheme of things, but am spending my birthday looking after my poor battered guys, instead of the planned celebrations.

What grinds my gears is actually a strange thing right now.

Sunday shoppers went to Asda thinking I was going to avoid sea of humanity how wrong was I it was like a scene from walking dead fuck tards everywhere I couldn't get up any of the bastard aisles let alone decide what I want for tea. Aborted and headed for the exit.

KFC for tea it is.
