So... What oiled your gears today? ARCHIVE

Sounds like Andyscooter had the best day, trying new pubs is always fun! I normally end up in canalside pubs for a couple when out on my mountain bike. Always seems to take forever to get home though.

Anyway I had a close second best day, I went to look at some big old vintage diesel trains fucking awesome tbh!

I'm so glad I am not working this evening, drunken Chelsea fans abound.
I could /should have gone back out to work (was out already this morning), especially because Ramadan and lots of minicab jobs going begging.

But ... I accidentally got a bit mashed on half of a small blue and white possibly not quite licit tablet, named after some sort of online service for communications. Very nice indeed.

Orville, this weekend's canine house guest (again) is pleased about this turn of events, because I have played Catch the Chewy Ball with him for what seemed (to me) like many hours, and then told him that I love him and he is the handsomest corgi in the room

My cats are not impressed. They are not a fan of Orville, and tend to prefer living outside when he visits. Lawrence has caught another small rat to prove to me that he Just Doesn't Care Who I Love (because he knows I love a decent mouser the most, even if it does catch more baby rats and pigeons, instead of mice).

Oh! And I just rediscovered a ridiculously posh hipster chocolate chip muffin I bought this morning from Fuckoffee but didn't get round to eating due to a carload of posh Army Officer boys going to a clay pigeon shoot in Crayford, somewhere.


... (and still not hungry actually For Some Strange Reason eeeeee!! )

Gracies been watching the ducklings as well. We went for a 9 mile family walk yesterday to avoid the wedding
on TV. Me and Mrs grr plus Gracie, Mrs grrs Dad and his wife, then an assortment of their combined offsprings, a couple of
their 'plus ones' plus a 5 month old baby and a Dalmation. Who Gracie terrorised without mercy (40kg versus 23kg).
We went to a pub where one of Mrs grrs brothers works bringing the total up to 10 plus 2 dogs and a baby. Bloody glad
I wasn't buying the drinks. Was nice though, her dad loves the whole time with the extended family thing,
he was sat there with a big grin on his face, he couldn't have been happier bless him. Loads of banter and piss taking,
all taken in good humour. My death camp special haircut was one of the regular topics.We even managed to score
some free grub via said brother who works there. Only downer on the day was I returned home with a splitting headache
(not the beer, only had 2) and ended up having an early night to try and sleep it off.

Made myself a gothic garden pot today with a bleeding hearts bush, a black chilli, that funky black grass and some deep red Sweet Williams ... its turned out quite nicely. Once the plants settle down and start growing properly again I'll post a better picture than the one I put on FB.

Might put them into small production, grow three or four up, and do a couple of stalls here and there with a mate who's producing things with skulls on - see how things take off.

Feeling positive for the future.

I love my bleeding hearts, each autumn I take it down to the root ball and from each spring to late summer it fills the front garden corners with foliage hiding most of next doors virgin media trunk (thrown across their side of the boundary by the installers and never dealt with by them. They went through a phase of spreading for a few years but that seems to have stopped for now. although some have popped up in pots on my back patio this year. I don't know how that has happened but I won't complain.

Got 38.5mph out of my hybrid bicycle today

[Fisty]

The previous owner of the aBusa.

Have been doing a bit of work on it. EVERY nut, bolt and fastener that I have removed has been coated with copper slip. Nothing was stuck, everything came off without rounding or snapping.

Not bad for a 15 year old bike.

Fly tipping is a real issue around the leafy lanes of Stafford, it's an eye sore. This video cheered me up, not Stafford but one in the eye for fly tippers.

Got a chance to sit on a CBR500, got one hell of a surprise, it's so light compared to that bucket CBF500 of mine.

Managed to get my feet on the ground, well just about, forks would need to be dropped a tad.

So it looks like I've found a possible replacement for my CB250 when I have to sell it thanks to that CUNT of a Mayor....
