Tried to book a couple of place on a CS30 (maintenance & cross cutting) chainsaw course.
Either everyone and his wife is at it or they're all saying 'full' as an excuse to social distance

Staying 6ft away from someone when they’re waving a chainsaw about probably isn’t the worst idea anyway.

Took the bike out yesterday for probably the last time this year.

The roads were slippery and covered in mud dragged out from the fields by tractors.

I don’t mind being an all year round biker but it’s gotta be fun going out and a hulking beast like a Sprint GT isn’t the bike for B roads in winter.

Went to see the physio following surgery on my hand. She's a bit of nutter, half the appointment was physio then she got the tarot cards out and predicted my future. Apparently my future looks good. 🙂

Survived another round of redundancies of 20% of the workforce. Tomorrow will be interesting as I find out who else has disappeared, already had most of my meetings cancelled. :thumbdown:

Wondered if anyone had heard from Adamski? On TRC he wasn't well at all and wondered if anyone knew how he was faring?

He had a massive strop when people didn't vote Labour and said he wasn't coming back, iirc.

He'll not be happy about what's happening to St Corbyn.

I recall him saying he was only going to be on Faceache, don’t know why but it may have been to do with his illness.

Apple one is great!

Ditto no kids in residence, but Filly has just done the carving and it's now outside for the local kids.

Same as I did on Oct 12th... Bought more underoos. I'm all set now, a total of 20 new un's... 8 on the 12th, 12 today. All rather spiffy looking. Now I can throw out the old ones :)

Those who can set that knowledge into motion in the physical world are rarer still.

Used my Joy Division oven gloves for the first time.

Raised a rare smile, but not for long.

The missus surrpised me with a trip over to La Graciosa which is a small island off the north coast of our island. No proper roads and probably only about a hundred cars. Half them were Land Rover Defenders used as taxis and tour buses.

Hopefully I've fixed the weeping head gasket on my Enfield...

...if not the head will have to come off completely and a new MLS gasket fitted.
