Better Call Saul is just starting Season 3 (yay!)

It's not nearly as addictive, and quite a lot slower, but if you liked the dodgy lawyer and Mike the crusty old fixer, then in terms of learning their pre-BB histor,y its worth a watch.

^^ was not a gear-grinding thing ^^

The catalyst of most of the rest of today's really very tedious gear-grindings:
* Battery on car deader than both Lenin and Lennon
Fucked up the entire rest of my very stressful morning.

Hysterical tears of frustration, rare but destructive, have worn myself out, and confused my better half

*gloomy*

People who like to round off bolts. I was planning on doing a few jobs on the Blackbird over the Easter Holiday, couldn't remove a couple of fairing bolts so I couldn't change the air filter, change the front discs. I did manage an oil change and a good clean though.

Oh, ffs. Why can't Garmin just supply the power leads with suitable ring-tongue battery connectors already fitted on the wires? I don't have a crimp tool, and the wire cores are so thin that any terminals I'm likely to get probably won't crimp on reliably anyway. And I don't have a soldering iron either. Nor am I likely to use either tool again. Could have had it all fitted and ready to play with today. Oh well, off to a local bike shop tomorrow to see if they'll bung a couple of terminals on for me.

Dem ads. I'm browsing in porn mode as well: are they the new BCF default?

Oh, FFS. I managed to lose my gloves walking 200 yards to my bike. Not left in the cupboard, not dropped in the lift. Did I drop them on the street and some ragamuffin had them away within seconds?

They were my very bestest ones ever as well, they cost all of £23.98 2 years ago.

Nope, mine are still for shoes, dresses and bitcoin.

No muslim-lady-dates for me.
Do they have lezzers in muslimism or do they all get rocks chucked at 'em?

I have credit check adverts....

Getting off the train earlier and not really looking where I was going. Smack my hand into an arm rest, instant swollen knuckle. It still hurts now and its completely my fault.

People who consider the road outside their house their parking space.

It's a public road, anyone can park there.

It's snowing and the outside temp. dropped to 1°C and going to get below zero. I already put summer wheels on my car and summer windshield washer fluid in it.

Oh, and I'm going to do the MOT for the MZ tomorrow, so yeah, cool stuff. I'm gonna actually experience the British winter riding misery tomorrow morning, yay.

Doggy is not well at all. Back legs are very wobbly. He's already on the max dose of Rimadyl so Vet put him on tramadol for the pain but he doesn't seem with it at all at the moment. Mind you, I wouldn't on 4 Tramadol tablets a day.

I'm hoping that things will improve but that might be too much to ask as he's 13 now.

Him in happier days
