Re: What have you done today thread?
I'd been to a bike rally at the weekend in Belgium and, yesterday, rode up through The Netherlands to stay for four nights before going home. I was feeling quite chipper because I've managed to reach another birthday so have caught up with Skub again.
This is my bike. Not the pedal cycle. The. appartment owners put that there in case I wanted to use it.

I think you're confusing it with the beaches along the north east coast of England that have sea coal mixed with the sand.mangocrazy wrote: ↑Mon Sep 16, 2024 6:26 pm I thought the sand on the Canaries was all black volcanic sand?

Got the car MOT’d then went to IKEA.
Went for 2 things, neither of which they had but of course we couldn’t just turn round and walk out….hell no. I consider myself lucky I just got off with 13 quid.

Bought 16 solar panels and an inverter. Blagged enough old automotive hose to bodge a repair on one the intercooler hoses on the van.

When I was Senior DBA for Parcelforce, they got a snotty new HR boss.
She called me in and said I didn't have a degree.
I said "I'm on call tonight for the Parcel Force database'
If I don't do it, you won't have a job tmrw.

No biking today. Mrs.Skub and I spent the afternoon in the walled gardens in the grounds of Glenarm castle. A very pleasant day.

Re: What have you done today thread?
Today I have been mainly remembering why I gave up spannering on quads!
I have a dead-ish artic cat in the garage which has a plethora of sticky out bits to bang your head on whilst bent over working on the steering.
There have been many fucks uttered today!

Relived my youth. Working under a jacked van in the street. At least it wasn't raining.

My mate is a kerbside mechanic who does this almost daily. Just up the same street is a guy who was under a Landrover doing the same thing and the jack went. He how lives in a wheelchair. Remember kids, always use an Axle stand.
Or in my case blocks of railway sleepers
