Hot weather, nice breeze, tonnes of work, riding the black inazuma with a new chain and sprocket kit and fresh oil.. Gears WELL oiled, 10 hour day.
Oh yes, bubble and squeak with remains of the beef from Sunday which I will be eating for the next 2 days. ____________________ CBF500 - 2 x Inazuma 250 |

Playing with insurance companies....
Bikesure send me through a renewal £460. Paid a third of that last year.
"sorry sir this is the best we can do..... high risk postcode...... modified bikes...... shed not garage.......... you killed some kittens in 2017....."
Ok no problem I will look eslewhere, please don't renew my policy.
Fast forward 20 minutes and I get a call back
" hello Sir I have spoken to our underwriters and we can do it for £139, is that acceptable"
Yup, sure is ____________________ Quietly and consistently taking the piss.

If I could have got similarly priced elsewhere i think I would have told them to bash it and go anyway! |

Got rained on (briefly) on the way to the Ace last night.
Cooling.
Got rained on again (briefly) on my way over the Canning Town Flyover this morning.
Cooling.
Nearly dry by the time I got to both destinations.
Fabulous breeze almost all the way to work.

Oh yeah, and got chatted up by some fella who USED to have a Sportster very similar to mine, but not EVEN a four speed (which mine is).
He and his mate were reminiscing and drooling over it as soon as I rode it in.
He even apologised for being more interested in the bike than in me
(slightly damp bird in red lipstick and with big tits arrives, and the fella is more interested in the bike, of COURSE he is, wouldn't be a proper biker if he wasn't, haha)
So he has lots of spare parts that he might be kind enough to sell me.
If I'm really lucky he will put them on for me, too, LOL

Doing some unenthusiastic gardening and I dug up a, 100 year old, 1919 penny!

I thought everything pink was about the poofters? The pink pound, and all that. So WTF is a pink tax, you low life. Get back here and tell me. *stamps foot grouchily*
Is a pink tax, like: charge women more cos they are women?
Cos I still don't get it.
I was gonna pay for the parts.
But maybe see if I could get away with paying for it , maybe with a bacon sarnie and a blowie. I dunno, does that still work, is it still valid currency or is it all about the bitcoin now?
Still, if not, I can prolly afford to pay for him to fit them and service the bike for me. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

Well, not necessarily, as he was explaining it to me, and I actually haven't really *grasped* ultra-modern feminism. I think because it seems so alien to me, they all seem so shouty and unpleasant, not really doing themselves as many favours as they think.
I just can't bear to read that hugely long feminism thread in the News forum, cos its so LONG, I asked for a precis once cos I had lost the plot.
It certainly does seem to me that modern ladies have got their knickers in more of a twist than absolutely necessary, god only knows how they are going to be able to back out of that when they need to (I still believe in the old adage that its a woman's perogative to change her mind.)
I didn't mind the whole Mrs Pankhurst/Dr Greer thing, raising awareness that ladies really did have a voice ... but once we got back to the argumentative stage, I just backed out and became deconstructed about the whole issue. I'm more docile than people realise, and often end up saying nothing or keeping [the remainder of] my opinion to myself. But I'm basically an idle cunt and am happy to let other ladies march about the place and wave banners on my behalf. Thanks, girls. Let me know when you need the lipservice and I'll apply it discreetly from behind the curtains of my private life.
I think that by the time I die, I shall be glad I lived in the era that I did, because it was all progressive at the start and we had advantages that we would never have had in an earlier era ... and by the time it got to being obnoxious/destructive to their cause, I was too old to give a shit.
