then remembered I wasn't in Nottingham area last weekend .... it was Mrs McQ :D


is it bad that I am cheered up that she has now got her 1st speeding ticket ever .... especially as she was always quick to say that she must be a better driver than me due to my multiple speeding tickets since I was 18!
they call it karma Al

And it’s 67 in a 50, so that’s just into the more serious band B classification.

Band B

This will attract a driving ban of 7 – 28 days will or four to six penalty points. This punishment will be imposed with a fine of up to 100% of your weekly income


Lucky she is a nurse and works only 2 days per week, so she isn’t paid too much.

+2, "wet as an otter's pocket" - sick of the rain and riding through puddles a foot deep with consequent wet boots. Better than ice though :thumbup:

What cheered me was I put a GPR Ti-oval can on the F650CS and that cheered me up no end. Like a different bike, the little lunger pulls well, sounds great, is noticeably lighter and best £120 I spent modding any bike ever.
I'm so unlucky that if there is such a thing as re-incarnation I'll come back as me!

Been sorting some days off out via the work computer gizmo...Has a page we can access online wage slips, book hols ect

Turns out I have 8 days left to take before the end of March & then the next holiday year April 1st to March 31 2021 I have 39 days annual leave + the bank hols & theres 8 B/Hols this year...

Apparently it pays to stay in the same job long term as they give you more days off each year...result :thumbup:

+ in April should get a payrise... double :thumbup: :thumbup:

I thrilled today as I finally came across a transformer...
It must have parked up and changed while the driver was shopping
