But more importantly Missus's birthday and wedding anniversary this weekend so I played a blinder and surprised her with short trip to Ireland. Overnight Pembroke ferry later on tonight then down to Cork for a few days and back to Waterford.

Have extended it due to the weather forecast - well,it would be rude not too..

Car's rammed with Diesel - wonder how much a pint is ?
Rammed, you say? :)

Woke up at 5.30am. That is a good start (not) to the day off. Coffee two has been consumed. Will look at greasing rear hub on replacement swingarm and sorting the swap. I need an air gun impact thingy and then I can also change the front sprocket.

Ah yes. I live in that smoky place, a lot of people live out in that countryside of fresh air and lemon squash, or cheap beer and eternal sunshine.

Auld Reg up the street must be in his 80's His last job was behind the Fag Counter at the local CO-OP for beer money. Woke up, always a bonus is something he has to say every time you say Hi Reg, how are you? :D

Tea, coffee, soggy's and wondering what I'm doing today...... I must organise myself quickly before Mrs M finds me something to do.

Gardening! Mowing, making a mini planter for the wife, fixing bits on the bike. Doing things around the house, making lunch, probably making G&T in a short while. Last sensible sentence from me!

Well I was planning on having a wee jolly to the seaside on the old Harley, but after popping in to see the FiL I got roped in to fitting a gearbox back onto an old (1980) knacker Golf GTI :angry-cussingblack:
