Be careful when buying a parking ticket for the car. Most of our machines around here are the type where you use a keypad to enter your reg number. I saw 17 people today get a ticket and not one wiped the keypad with an Anti Bacterial wipe. I didn't even bother getting a ticket and took a chance that I wouldn't get caught. I'd rather get a fine and argue the reason for not getting one at a later date than touch that keypad.

I started using the self scan thingy at Asda.  No people right up my arse in a queue.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

This is an easy one to forget the Hospital last night had a touch screen thing to pay for parking it looked like someone had coughed there guts up on it. I have become so paranoid I have hands of a 100 year old now.

Just had to visit my garage/wine cellar.

And thinking the bikes look sad.on possibly the warmest day of the year so far.

But needs must.

We need to stay safe.
Hopefully we can get out and about for leisure soon

Best wishes all

I've done the decorating, raked and cut the lawn, tidied the borders transplanted some plants, painted the fences, so today I got the F1 out from it's slumbers and gave it a check up and it's yearly clean up. Of course I had to take a short ride on it which went great, but wonder of wonders the new knee has improved to the point that I can now operate the back brake properly, I was made up and it was nice to give the bike it's test run.
