Missing the obligatory 'smart' phone, with corns on his thumbs!  :(

Shovels and Woodbines, or No.6 are no longer "Cool". But, an account with every sodding on-line bookmaker and a direct link to 'Love Island' are absolute essentials!  ;)

You high 'nough if the Wash comes inland bor? They storms will test them drains!

Good health, Bill

we're good here Bill, driest bit of the country ... lots of rumbles of thunder and flooding 25 miles south of here .... just enough rain here to annoy SWMBO , as washing got a trifle damp.

i got #1 out of long term storage today, fired up first kick, but battery looks like it might be a write off ... won't take a charge... still, if that's the only problem i won't get too upset.. now to transfer the insurance from #9, and organise an mot.

hope the weather isn't too extreme north of the border

Aye Steve,

High Norfolk! Same as where we used to be, my Mum, Dad and I near the Weasenhams. However, ancestors were up at Doking (really dry!) and t'others at Ringstead and the Burnhams. Farming sheep and Coastguards, I'm on the Coastguard side! Enjoy a rummage!  ;)

I'm sure #1 'll come up bootiful. I need to get Sally sorted out. The Mono/XT600E is a fine old charger, but a bit lardy with those big tyres and feels heavy. Sally jus' feel nimbler and lighter. Also, change the gearing on the Duke and find a neon timing light to time the Morini 125H. Accuspark can't cope with the revs. 6,000rpm to test the advance! But what else do you 'spect when its a Vespa 2stroke alternator and transducer. ;)

Good health and watch out for those courgettes, I'm having them with everything including veggie curry! :o

hi Bill, i'm sure i have an old neon timing light somewhere...
We have kept sheep here in the past, but i must confess we have never tried farming coastguards ...  there doesn't seem to be a market for them around here .... not even sure what they feed on ...

aint punctuation a wonderful thing  ;)

Aye Ian,

But the silly sod is growing cucumbers next to courgettes, so there is every chance of cross pollination! However, thank you for the information. I'm having courgettes in a smoothie for breakfast tomorrow! ;D  As well as midday, tea and a snack later on!  ;D ;D

Good health, Bill

Make a good veggie curry, omlette, or "comme en France", with French beans, garlic and olive oil. Might even go in the piccalilli!

i'm all for the omlette option , as we grow courgettes and keep hens, so a cheap (cheep) meal :-)
