I know the thick end of nothing about motorbikes, but my neighbour has a pimped Yamaha R1 that I've mistaken for thunder in the past when he's started it up. Give it another month or two and you'll be breakfasting at Loomies.

Guy at work commutes on one. He's not long back after suffering cardiac arrest. Can't help wondering if the bike had an effect...

They lost my suitcase on the way home. I'm down to one pair of underpants, no shaving kit, and my back-up toothbrush. I have the First World Problem from Hell. I'll submit an article about it to the lifestyle section of The Observer.

Not the one with my fridge magnet in ....

They haven't lost it, just sent it on an extended holiday.

Gone onto the middle east.

The lady at the desk was confident that they could track it down and deliver it to our home within five days, no matter where in the world it might be lurking. We shall see.

Went blackberry picking today, results were pitiful. Lots of dead looking attempts to form berries.

Made crumble from apples grown in the garden for some reason a bumper crop of them.

Errr that's about 1/8th of an R1.

In cc, yes. In bhp: about 8% of a current R1!

I'm warming up what's left of the lamb curry I made last night, while listening to a bit of Journey.

-Two tents drying in the house.
-Three sleeping bags airing out.
-Four waterproof jackets dripping into the bath.
-18 bottles of beer stored away.

Yes, we have been to Wales camping. It was the Twins' birthdays on Friday and mine yesterday. They wanted to spend their day in Wales. We rounded off a wet morning with a swim in Lake Bala. Well, I did. Everyone else declared it too bracing.

It's only the beginning of September!

I have received my usual birthday message from my brother-in law, about the baseball season. We always give each other a hard time about the league standings. His team is first in National League Central, but mine is second.

Happy birthday @Gravity Aided

I'll raise a in your honour xxx
