Wasn't that when someone (X81???) crashed a customer's bike on the way over? A Cagiva?

Could be imagining that.

I was following right behind him about 80ish when he missed a bend and went between the upright poles of a road sign.
He should have died.

Been checking if old cars and bikes are still on the road. Nice to see my old GPz is still Taxed and MOT'd. It will soon be 40

I have organised 5 meets now for a self build camper group i help admin on Facebook. Every time when folk start asking when is the next meet we get at least 100 sticking there hands up to say well will come. On the day you are lucky to get 30 people. Oh its to far, wrong dates and various other shite. Now i just advertise a meet and expect the same group of people but its quite nice as we are all friends now so its quite nice to meet up round the camp fire for a weekend

You all should do a campfire reading of Dr. Sleep. It gives a different slant on Rose the Hat and the campervan people...

Who? I managed to reach 60 without reading a book in my life. Not about to start now and certainly not to a bunch of piss heads round a camp fire.

There's a film too,if you are a book dodger,but it's a bit average.

We were all a lot younger then. Pre-Facebook becoming the ubiquitous place to have social groups, and then a load of people getting sick of that shit too.

I've seen LOADS of cherry blossom, some primroses and I'm sure some crocuses. All in the valley/Annecy/Geneva/Ferney - but its kinda lovely when spring start to

And, the dry and warm meant I saw a ton of bikes, some of them sounded amazing

Spring rocks (ok, I do prefer snow, but I do love when the first bits of spring are sprung and summer is near

)

Very insignificant, I followed a car on the commute, it was a original shape Skoda Fabia VRS.

The number plate read VRS 1 OFF. Which for some reason made me smile.

Tho the MOT check suggests it's actually VR51 OFF.

It only had 216,656 miles on it at the last MOT.

I also regularly see FFF777, which is just some wanker in a Porsche, but it's a memorable light metallic blue.

I haven't handed over the money yet but the sale is agreed, I've bought some land. The area on the left is what I already own, around 10k sq metres. The area on the right is what I've agreed to buy, around 20k sq metres. It's the only piece of land in the valley that isn't protected and is being sold with planning permission. I won't be building but nor will anybody else now. I'm very happy.

What the pic doesn't show is the terrain. It's a mountain, all the fields are terraces, anything to the left of the house is national park.

If you look at the picture the grey line running down the right hand side is tarmac, it's 1km up a track to the house.
