Bought some soft throwover panniers for the continental ride to a friend's place near Eindhoven at the end of August.As the FJ is SORNed at the moment I will be taking the Exup,hence the soft luggage.

Civ IV complete, so it's got beyond the sword, warlords and colonization

£4.47 with postage

Don't like using steam, wanted hard copy.

Did play Civ 5 which I got as a freebie via greenman? on steam, vanilla didn't like, bought an upgrade which was okay(ish). Doubt my laptop is capable of playing 6.

Quite looking forward to getting this set up, will give me something to do over the winter.

Nero Recode for a start, the complete package is useful, as for the burning rom, don't use it.

Plus the fact my old version of Nero is very very old..

Paint, and someone to use it.

Specifically 2 pac epoxy paint for the underwater bits. Enough for 2 coats. That will be £600 thank you very much, Oh, you want us to lift your boat out and do it for you? £2000 Sir and 3 days work.

So my boat is now sitting on railway sleepers, washed and ready to be painted tomorrow. I just hope the heat isn' going to fuck up the paint.

A quarter of an ounce of mediocre weed. Rolling Eyes Maybe I need another break. I think the tolerance level is a bit high at
the moment. I see another short hiatus on the horizon.

a 950ml drinks bottle from halfords

2 bottle cages from Amazon

planning on stuffing my tools and pump into the large bottle and cable tie it in place on the cage - could've just bought a "tool bottle" I suppose, but none of them seemed big enough

This arrived today. It's in as new nick. Thumbs Up Really nice jacket. I'm just swapping the back protector out for a forcefield
one I have that will fit the pocket. Really chuffed with it, not shown in the pics very well but the lettering is silver.Also not
shown is the titanium slider armour panels to elbow as well. Thumbs Up Also unmarked. Not cheap but worth what I paid, a tiny
bit snug but nothing too bad. It will look awesome with my black lid. Cool

Got one of those too. Laughing I like some of the HG stuff. Not fond of all that tribal looking gash they did for a while though.

A black GPR Furore for a KTM 1290 adventure for £180 brand new Cool

And aside for being a tad long it fits my 1290 GT, should give the deep V-Twin rumble that I am after without giving me a headache with earplugs in like the tiny Austin Racing can did.

I will get it fitted properly tomorrow.

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tyre-Bead-Breaker-Hand-Held-Type-Each/112136543422

As I do about 6 tires each year, wanted proper tool to break the bead. This is quite a bit smaller than the frame types and might modify to have detatchable handles.

Clamps / spade generally work fine if you are not doing it so often. I have not scratchd up my wheels yet, unlike bloke at work that always goes to a professional Laughing

Interesting to see how you find it.

I have one of these:

Which has done me nicely over the last few years, but don't really need all the bulk when you can use the spare tyre to support it and I'm great at filling my van with tools as it is.

Its the jaws dont open as much as expected, I assumed designed for car tires but doesnt quite go fully round a 180, however that wont stop it working Id guess as long as the flat jaw is past the centre it will grip adequately to work. It will be a good month before I use it.. Seems like it will work very well.
