  2. This evening I decided to have a Rogan Josh reminding myself why I like an Indian meal from time to time. This will be followed about an hour later about why my tummy dislikes indian meals. I expect to be sponsored by Andrex for the next 24 hours and if I see that labrador puppy, I will use him too

  10. Day 2 at Almeria and 6 laps behind one of the instructors and it's started to make sense. The V4 is soooooo different to anything I have ridden before. Turn in and braking points are way later than the 1098R. Had fun today. Andy

  11. Managed to remove my (very) flat tyre from the rib - was on the fence side so I hadn't noticed it was flat till I tried to move it :confused:
    Took it to work and managed to get it fixed in my lunch hour - was leaking at the rim (corrosion due to dunking in sea water). The tyre place was first class - no drama or up selling just tidied up the rim, refitted the tyre and new valve all for £21 which seemed very reasonable.
    Got to use my torque wrench which always makes me feel like a proper mechanic :joy:

    Oh and went to see my son in Liverpool at the weekend - his block of flats has a car stacker - I didn't even know such a thing existed! The Anthony Gormley statues on Crosby beach are impressive

  15. Last day at Almeria :( and what a last day ! 33.5 degrees and very little wind and I found out that the V4’s electronics light up like a christmas tree when the back wheel lets go :astonished: All good, fabulous 3 days and hopefully when the photographer posts the pictures to her web site, she made me look better than I actually was :D Potentially lots of beer later and an easy day tomorrow. Got a late afternoon flight so plenty of time to chill and then bimble back to Alicante before flying home. Andy

  16. Been to hospital for a check up on the shoulder as it’s been 2 weeks since the OP, it’s very clean as I thought it might be a bit messy as it’s been stinging a lot but very pleased there are no complications :upyeah:

  19. Fuck all bike related today, but totally infuriated with the Jeremy Kyle situation.

    1. Stupid people agree to be paid to go on TV and get berated by an audience and also of course him (Kyle). An ex Recruitment consultant with his fair share of skeletons in the closet, who is less than qualified to dish out guidance or therapy of any kind.
    2. One of them takes his own life. This squarely lying at ITV's door.
    3. Stupid people now queuing up to run Kyle through the dirt. And generally moan about the fact that it was their choice and they got fucking paid...

    I dispair of society...
