Gassing station:
An MX5.
Use an independent specialist.
Biker banter:
An old Pan European.
Track days:
You’ll be fine, you probably won’t crash at all.
Speed plod and law:
Probably £100 and 3 points.
Holidays and travel:
No, it used to be good but now it’s overrun with tourists.
Health Matters:
Probably fine but ask a doctor to get diagnostic on your ass just to be safe.

A refurbished Macbook.

It all depends on what China/Putin/Andy Burnham does.

They aren’t expensive, you can find one for less than the cost of a small house.
Any more suggestions?

When someone asks for a recommendation for a holiday, say "we stayed here, it was lovely" and leave a link. When everyone else clicks on it they will think "that looks nice", put in some dates to see how much it costs, and then think "fNo, it used to be good but now it s overrun with tourists.
k me!" when they find out it is £1000 a night.They will then question where it all went wrong as you can afford to spend more on one night than they spend on an entire holiday.
