A guitar for my old mucker...Mrs Terror saw it in the classifieds and this evening we went to check it out.

Hardly been played and sounds okay for a budget classical Fender.

Best bit was leaving it propped outside his place and doing the knock and run thing and watching his big daft confused face.

*He gave us the money for it ...so technically didn't buy anything.

[edit]

He mentioned a couple of years ago that he was after a replacement for his knackered Yamaha and specifically something with a wide nut to accommodate his burly hands...we know he'd never venture out and this was the solution.

Put a deposit on a Swytch Ebike kit. Won't get it for a few months buy the looks but it will allow me to keep the bike I like plus its half the price of the bike I tried from halfords.

Today I did buy another boat???? Hmmm? I think I’m trying to start my own navy .
It’s a 3-to-4 berth Hampton, cabin cruiser.

It a year older than my present boat , but a little bit easier to live with.
It’s got a four pot 1500cc BMC Diesel engine inboard.
It’s tatty , but it’s all there and mechanically sound
FSH .

No wonder I never get to finish ‘Project Scrappy Hyosung’.

I’d stopped off to look at the wildfowl on a local lake when the cold iron railing I was leaning on let me know the finger stitching on my old Alpinestars GP Pro gloves had finally given way. Closer inspection showed the right glove had three fingertips open. I’ve had them a long time, in fact I can’t exactly remember how long. I’ve used them all year round and they’ve served me well. They’ve been soaked with rain, sticky with sweat and despite owning winter gloves, silk inners and waterproof overs I’ve used these alone. I’ve never crashed in them but they are ‘race gloves’ so I had no doubts on that score.

So, to Bike Stop in Stevenage for the next version (R3) of the same glove, again in black. These are slightly restyled and feel a bit wider across the palm, whereas I recall the R2s caused some pain there until well worn in.
