I've had fun today with this MOT system failure. I thought it was just my local garage not nationwide. I forgot the MOT had expired on 1100 so needed it to tax bike. Local garage fitted me in but then system crashed. Waited around reading lots of mags until it was sorted. Got a pass eventually so will leave on Friday morning in Hymer with bike on trailer. Bike is still in full-on Dawn to Dusk mode so I'm definitely up for Friday night off-road bimble, I've got got enough spot light power to dry out the track.

See you all soon.:)

My flight is delayed until Saturday morning now so will be around Friday night for the mandatory bollox talking:thumb2
 
Hoping to sneak off to EM tomorrow, but need to be back Saturday evening, so will miss the meal. Inshallah.
 
Anybody going got a 12v airbed pump

I fancy bringing my small airbed rather than the thermarest but would need to pick up a small 12v pump en route. This may not be possible due to late departure time so will anyone else there have a suitable 12v pump with a large nozzle I can borrow 2moro evening?:)

I've got one specially designed to be used on motorbike 12v sockets...but I don't think I can make it, even on my 'ickle bike due to my son having an accident yesterday and now needing a bit of tlc and his 'ole mum fussing over him (he's only 12, so he'll hate it).

If you have an Argos near you Rushy Argos do a nice lightweight one in yellow that runs on 12v sockets, and it includes the larger nozzles. Its also cheap to buy.

Hope it goes well Bryn - post up the pics so I can feel suitably jealous and sulk all next week for missing it :comfort :beerjug: :friday

If you're thinking of a ride out in the region let me know :thumb2
