Obviously didn't do top of my jacket up properly, got hit square in the neck on my wind pipe by a random flying object, random until I got to work and discovered it to be a wasp, still alive in the corner of my jacket - lucky the little bastard didn't sting me, I react badly to stings and bites, and a hit on the wind pipe would not have been good news Confused

Rectumfier has gone tits again. Sitting at the Betchworth Crossing turn off the bike and it wouldn't restart. The new one lasted less than a year and took the new battery with it. Think I'll look at it next spring.........

Can't be arsed with it TBH, sodding thing is getting on my nerves. I'm sure the front CCT is giving way too, they were done less than 2000 miles ago and seeing that I've done around 15000 in 6 years on the bloody thing. Its enough to make you go and buy a Meccano designed Enfield...

Seriously though. My CBR ate 2 of the buggers in under 2 years Sad So I changed to one of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/APE-Cam-Chain-Tensioner-Set-VTR1000-Superhawk-VTR_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem518d44fb0fQQitemZ350262459151QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

No problem since. In fact it hasn't even needed adjusting since I fitted it 3 years ago.

Not pissed off; sad:

My sister's friend Karen called today from her hospital bed to say that she'd just been told the doctors can't do anything more for her liver cancer & have put her on hospice care. Karen asked my sister to be godmother to her 2 girls as her kids are friends with my sister's kids. Can't imagine what Karen & her husband and daughters are going through. Reminds me that there are more important things in life than my trifling visa application... Crying or Very sad

The NHS. Booked an appointment at Kingston Hospital over 2 months ago for some maxillofacial surgery (get a toof taken out) Arrived at 8:50 for my 9:00 appointment like a good citizen (I've read the posters about how many hours are lost by people not turning up in time for their appointments) at 9:30 a lady came to tell me that the dentist is on holiday for 2 weeks, it seems someone had made a mistake booking me and 30 odd other patients in and some one else had made a mistake by not informing us. I managed to hold my anger (again I have read the posters which say "don't take it out on our staff" (what else is there to do in waiting rooms aside from wait and read posters)) and said "Thank you very much, not a lot you can do is there... Never mind, see you in 2 weeks."
Left a black line in the car park though. Cnuts.

I had a helmet on and I wouldn't class it as a stunt just a momentary loss of control. Razz
