How are we all ?

[Craphouserat]

Hi guys

Been a while since I've posted - due to my jealously. How are you all doing?

My house projects are coming along well, and I tried in vain again to get a bike. Went out at the weekend to buy wall and floor tiles for the bog, went to a nice Itailian for lunch afterwards, plied her with some Pinot Grigio and sweetly asked if we could pop into the bike showroom for a little look at their clothing dept. Another glass of Pinot Grigio she agreed.
Off we popped, and wouldn't you know it on the way to clothing dept. we passed the Hornet I'd been eyeing up on the internet, she didn't like it and reminded me that after the bog was finsihed the living room was next and regular sex is better than any bike ride. Reluctantly I stepped away from the bike and moved on.
Ended up with a pair of Oxtars - half price. Dunno if these are any good, but I need to update my gear before I buy the new bike next year. Hired a Suzuki GSX650F for my 1st birthday, long weekend on 8th Aug (a year since I passed !)
So, my only news is the house projects are coming along, I have a new pair of boots for my nonexistent bike, I have hired a decent bike for a long weekend and I get regular sex.

How are you guys getting on ?

Hope you are all well !

Barry.

Hello Barry,
Things getting better for you now? How's the injury coming along?
don't worry about the mrs....just keep chipping away, dropping those hints, and sighing everytime you see or hear a bike....she'll come round and sacrifice that £30k kitchen!!

Hi Barry -

Good to hear from you mate.

I'm getting on well with my Hornet; it's all taxed and on the road. I installed a garage ground anchor last weekend and got out on the bike a bit, meeting up with someone from the forums as well.

I also picked up my new leathers and have started wearing them in around the house. This weekend I will be taking the bike to get it MOT'd - there's a couple of weeks left on it and just want to get it done a little early. Must remember to take the old certificate with me to get the new one backdated.

Barry.

You're obviously not riding (the bike!) either hard or fast enough!

(or am I just not getting enough of the other . . . hmmm . . .)

Things are good mate - back is healing well. Everytime a bike goes by i sigh...she just tells me to shut my eye's...even though I'm driving ! Looking forward to the bike hire, I remember how it feels to be a kid at xmas !
Meant to ask how your neck is ? Been back to the specialist yet ?

Glad you're all well.

Sossige - I saw you're pic of the Hornet...very nice mate. I hope you enjoy it, you can gimme some riding tips come August, I've not been on a bike since Nov last year before my back operation ! A bit nervous, think I will practice some slow stuff on the first day...then a long run the following day.

Speak to you all soon.

All the best.
