No Visio yet, but as soon as I get the link I will post it.

Rain and cold again ! It is not fair I am loosing my sun bronzed completion I may have to resort to ronseal wood stain.
Mr bygad oil ways looks red when I talk to him he must have a sun bed, can I have a go please?

LORD Byegad to you peasant!

Indeed Sire , "sun bed " indeed, the pheasant.

Sun bed ???

Lord Byebye has his man/ladyservant lasso the thing** and bring it in when he wants to 'catch some rays' .....

... 'bed' indeed - do you think he's not busy enough ???


**... if they can see it through the rain, that is ...

The lack of sympathy and understanding of my plight as a part time office menial and professional keeping your head down so no one notices you.

The stress of the semi retired.

Best off volunteering for everything and putting any schemes or ideas in writing to your head of department.
I worked for many years for the Civil Service and local government. Both were bereft of ideas, I did come up. With one or two.

Otherwise when the chopping block of cuts comes you might find your shiny pâté fully lined up. Mind you a life on the bowling green and bingo hall might be just you.

Plus if Nick's suggestion is diligently implemented they will soon delete the 'semi' from semi-retired.

I have used some of my holidays so I am working two days a week for the rest of the year.

I don't know If I will bother with York this year I will see if they use there brain and put the wheel chair/ crutch users near the tarmac road rather than as far away from it as possible.
I did ask to go at the side of the light camping even though I was in the car "computer says nooooooo" !

I will be away on diplomatic duty, trying to negotiate a treaty with the SNP as to a bid for world domination following Scotishland's independence. With their Whisky and Tetley's Best Bitter, we could rule the world!

Sadly the SBGG will not be attending York Rally either.

Rather than suffer yet another visitation, they've cancelled the whole thing. One up to the SBGG!

 

[n-ick]

The post Olympic movement and resurgence of cycling , York Show cancelled. Whatever next ?

Promotion for the SBGG ?
Bionic legs for the SBGG ?
A 3 day week for the SBGG ?

 

[byegad]

Course in being human for the SBGG??? Rocket for planet Y for SBGG?????

I didn't do it, it was nowt to do wi me, if my local chapter of the hells angels believe an event is discriminating against the handicapt and have a "chat with some of the comity".

I have bought my fist leather trousers this week! I am told it is what all the sun bronzed mussily hero types wear on tv.
I am contemplating the chest/back waxing thing... But having had an estimate into teens of pounds I had to have a not stand up.
On the plus side I could stuff a pillow with the result and sell it on e bay, with the Seleb factor it might make a profit.

I am now looking at putting up graded shocks on the motortrike now it has had the trail reduction and run in.
Every one is surprised how well it goes, especially when it comes rumbling up behind them* and can't figure out how it goes around the bends so quickly.

It has been a bit of a faff playing about with all the tyre pressures to get a good rid and good handling.
It feels about bang on now but with basic shocks they can at times strudel to keep up with every thing happening at once.
The race quality shocks give better response and selectable settings for fine tuning.

*some riders find it a bit nerve racking, panic don't know what to do.

A rough translation of the above into any known language would be much appreciated.

I tried it on Google translate! !t came up with a statement that the translation service is only designed for translation of human to human languages, and a recommendation to contact an animal specialist for the parrot/dolphin/ape in question. The reason given was that the poor animal was obviously in distress and needed a single injection to end its suffering.

Maybe a quick visit to a solicitor to have the SBGG classified as legally not human would bring an end to all of our suffering.

There does seem to be a lot of talk about 'motors' on this cycling forum thread !

If you want to tell anyone about the morontized version of a trike ... I'm sure there are plenty of other leather-wearing-hairy-backed places who would be glad to hear.

This is lycra and flat-or-drop bars territory ...

Just saying, like ...
