You know all that safety stuff you have to carry in cars in France - hi-viz jacket and so on - do you have to carry equivalent stuff on motorbikes?
Yes, it has to be accesable from the driving seat, that'll be really hard

As for 'little jobs', the list was there... somewhere...

Have a safe trip home Gwyn

That must be the colour then, a little off putting...

And the Euro results are starting to be announced, I'm off to bed with a good book and a 'sample'...

Records, my 29 year old son has a collection of classic 33rpm LPs, but until recently no record player!

Asked why he said that he'd get one eventually. He actually inherited a 1960s Hacker deck and seperate amp/speaker...

...the sound is fantastic and he's now enjoying the likes of Pink Floyd, Thin Lizzy and of course Led Zeplin in full stereo.

On a different point, I went out for a drink with my ex-works team leader. It was the first time in this particular pub for both of us, we won the quiz. and prize draw!

I think we'll get banned if we try to go back...

En ol tack...

Une bier s'vous plait

I'll have a Harrier

Swede's speak good eEnglish, which is a bu**er when you'rs trying to learn Swedish..

...Benny has a habit of going off at a tangent and explaining the various tenses etc when I try a little Swedish..

...we usually end up in a bar anyway so any learning soon gets forsotten!

Skol!

The best midge repellant is that hand/body cream that Avon make, I forget the name but it's used by the army!

And it works!

Failing that a good 'blue light insectzapper thingy' in the camper...

Enjoy.

Happy Easter everyone, I hope the weather's as good where you are and that the G'n'Ts are going down well.

The weather was perfect, as was the bride and groom. They've known each other ten years to the day and are so happy together.

As for giving away, I wanted Joe to sign a reciept but was told that wasn't a good idea!

And they will keep coming back, H keeps me on the straight and wobbly, it's the gin thing...
