Been busy....out and about

...went across to Salisbury this morning to see the hire lights for IBC, raining when I left, dried up on the way. Bike loved the country roads but hated the traffic in Salisbury. Will have to attend to the clutch etc. if I want to keep using it. Mileage since yesterday lunchtime is 36,566, so I have done 66 miles in 24 hours, quite a lot for me!

Visited Blue Light Day in Tidworth on the way back, it's a really good community event. Took some piccies, this is Issac with the Really Red Radio Roadshow. Talking of the radio, Castledown Radio's website has been mangled by someone, not sure who/how, so it is being put back together as we speak.

Keeping an eye on Team Enduro Europe (9,000 miles, 30 border crosses, 26 countries, 31 days)these guy's (and girl's) are on their way around Europe in a month by motorcycle, having recently learnt to ride. Best of luck to them! See where they are by GPS, http://enduroeurope.webs.com/gpstracker.htm

Mondeo has failed the MOT on front springs, again! It broke these before and the were replaced in 2005, is three years acceptable? Must be a real weak point. Still, total cost some 130 odd quid, so not too painful...

Tashies ill with a sickness bug, Dan's got into college doing an introduction to the services NCFE Uniformed Services, at Andover. Starts next week! Julies feet are really painful, hospital tomorrow.


My REOC membership card arrived today, so I am now a fully signed up member. Must try and get to the local groups meetings, first one is next Tuesday. Been in touch with the meeting organiser, and they may go for a run.

That's all, still busy at work.....so must go...
