  3. Well, well, well. It’s only 8 o’clock and there’s already been an earthquake. It was about 6.00 a.m. and 3.6 on the Richter Scale, centred 13 miles from here.

    I was awake and I heard it, which is a first for me although I’ve felt one before. I wondered what it was, thought it might have been thunder but it went on too long, a proper rumble. I’ll have to find out if there’s been any damage around these parts.

    Apparently 3 more around the Straights of Gibraltar in the last 24hrs, but smaller though.
     
  4. Had the same in Kefalonia a couple of years ago, 4.4 off the coast. Woke us up, quite common there, most of the buildings on the island were destroyed back in the 50s. They build accordingly now.

    Do they occur frequently in Andalusia?
     
  5. And as if by magic I got this last night...

  6. I hope you successfully manage to do that (contact your sender). Keith (on here) and I found it literally impossible to contact EVRI by phone but maybe you will be able to, purely because it's been damaged (great..)

  7. Thrashed my 18 Yr old son at squash. Chuffed to bits as normally now the advantage is with him. :confused:

    @Carr01 I've been stretching whilst using a balance board..it has been a genuine revelation in how fast it helps to loosen you up or recover from aches. ;)
     
  8. It was an eBay purchase for £4 so no great loss. However, the seller, a business, should hopefully respond to my message with that screen grab and replace.
     
  9. Ah, ok - didn't realise it was EBay - i've had 98% good experience with them.
     
  10. Just confirmed the last sentence (should have filmed it). Ducks approached the "bread", had a nibble and immediately left.

  15. Same for my Son, was ever the same.

    Although it's on me as I never 'let' him win once he was a certain age.

    He's getting seriously into his cycle fitness now he's cycling to lectures at Uni and out on their Saturday graded rides.

  17. Rode the hyper to work post belt-tnesion and UltimateRectifier install. On the belt front i used the 5mm allen key method - [they were a bit tight] so now the engine feels quite literally a bit looser....so all good there.

    Worked up the courage yesterday to test ride the sxv to work. All good, only thing i had to do was to turn down the tickover to get it back to 2000rpm.

    Tomorrow: Take the winter tyres off of the zed - Supercorsa's back on for the summer....

  18. Yes apparently, various magnitudes of course. That one was quite big but every 20 years or so they have a real biggie.

  19. Hopefully not a really really big biggie.

  20. Enjoyed the sun today whilst washing the conservatory, doors & windows, then scrubbed off the winter shite from the car, followed by a couple of hours yards cleaning.

    Dropped the van off for a service and check over. I think I have a drive shaft on the way out? Soon see I guess.

    Spring has finally sprung, and it's good to push a fresh broom through everything.
