What have you done today thread?

Washed the ZH2, it's now called "Carrie" as I managed to slice my finger on the exhaust guard and bleed copiously all over the bike. Then ACF50'ed the bike. Disappointingly found the cheapo metal lower fairing brackets are beginning to bubble up.

Bike is now about 6.7 out of 10 on the @weeksy cleanliness scale and a 2 on my Mums cleanliness scale (every year the men from Intel and AMD dread her inspection of their clean rooms against the standard of her Kitchen).

Bike is now ready to be taken to the shop on Thursday for a new cam chain tensioner and boots (Pilot road 6).

You know the law - you don't own a vehicle until youve bled on it!

I've worked a lot the last week. Day off tomorrow and I've booked to do first tracks with some friends in the morning. After an extra long day I had planned an early night as a mate that was going to drive to La Plagne for first tracks hadn't been in touch.

Only, now I have him sleeping on the sofa but not doing first tracks LOL So I have to stay awake now till he gets here, then probably talk for a bit, when all I really want to do is SLEEP!!! Like an hour ago!! LOL

Paid my self assessment tax for the year, the first time I've paid direct taxation since a long time ago.

I hope the chancellor doesn't waste my £4.25.

Chancellor would probably advise setting up an off-shore trust in a relative's name so you didn't have to pay the £4.50.

Went to WallyWorld for vittles, dentist later...

[ZRX61]

Didn't like what the dentist had to say, off to see another one tomorrow to see about an implant.

Apparently damaged shoulder while riding on Sunday, ignoring it isn't working.

Today, I have mainly fitted a new bog seat in the 'her' bathroom.

Quelle fandango! OK, it's a bit of a Rolls Royce solid oak job, not a reconstituted wood chippings thing and it does the (unrequired) soft close thing - but you get one shot at getting the position right as there are adhesive pads in the fitting. Get it wrong and tighten it all up and you're stuffed. (Shades of all those places where the bog lid/seat won't stay up when you're pointing Percy at the porcelain. Obvs not a problem in this case as I don't go in there But the lid/seat do stay up and it's on nice and square ).

Hopefully I'll never have to remove it!

We have two downstairs loos. I've claimed the one nearest the garage and put a 'Gents' sign from Screwfix on the door, magazine rack inside and all sorts of manly paraphernalia on the walls. Best is a sign that reads, 'Please leave the seat up'.

Muddy dog walk, miserable MTB ride, MTB now needs TLC, went to put up magnetic rack kitchen thingy SWMBO had specified it must fit to a particular wall(despite my misgivings about the electricary in the wall). Turns out I was right and wall is full of cables so no drilling holes. Went to shed and retrieved adhesive mastic (sikaset) to find it had set in the tube, had to drill hole in tube to get to the remaining liquid stuff. Very messy. Have warned Mrs M that rack thing will probably pull paint off the wall but I can fix that when it happens.

Now time for another dog walk, will probably be a stomp.

[ZRX61]

Went to see a dentist about having one tooth replaced by an implant as they advertise the service for a mere $1299.00

By the time they got done they were trying to sell me some oral surgery & FOUR implants for just shy of $29,000.

Wasn't an entirely wasted trip as I hit the Brit store just across the freeway from their office & scored Jaffa's, Aero (milk & mint version), Turkish delight & some bread puddin mix. Also went by Cycle Gear & bought some spiffy new m/c gloves

Dropped bike off for cam chain tensioner recall, I was second one in the queue! Fiddling with MTB, cut down bars and get dropper post working again.
