Add tobasco to everything that comes in a ration instant improvement on the shite flavour, or merely removes taste buds enabling them to be eaten without retching ?
Had you ever used it or even heard of it before you joined up? :eek:

Screwfix click and collect, absolute shambles, a text saying your order is ready to be collected.
I arrive at my local depot to see a winding queue of 50 or 60 people waiting [safe distancing] :eek:. Eventually when my turn comes, half my order is missing," we'll text you when the other half arrives ".
Added irritation is they said " we don't have any phone contact staff working as they've all been furloughed ",
So who sent me the text to collect my order :confused::mad:

I love chicken kievs, and a couple of years ago I was actually in Kiev for a wedding. On one of the other nights we ate at a restaurant, so naturally I ordered a chicken kiev, thinking it would be fantastic. Imagine my disappointment when it was pretty much exactly the same as the kievs we get here. Turns out you can't do much different with a bit a chicken with garlic butter in it. :LOL:

You could open it up and put a sprout in it. (y)

contact your local police force, TVP used to have an advanced rider scheme with police riders, just googled and look at https://bikesafe.co.uk/

IF your lad will listen, most bike coppers are bike nuts too, they like to go quick and have fun, its just a time and a place and the skill to do it safely. Hazard perception, vanishing points etc..

Done well, riding a motorbike can be pretty safe! You learn to anticipate the idiots!!

He's done thousands of 'safe' miles here and on the continent but both times he's been taken off has been relatively in the shadow of home... Sensibly he always puts full kit on even for a trip to the gym which helped with lessening injury with the last downing...

When he first got a bike he went out with a family friend, a former traffic officer, who instructed him with the basics of two wheel survival...

Unfortunately you can't always make up for determined "idiots" ...

Bad news Dad; it
never leaves you. You may not have a bike but once a biker, always a biker.

What's he looking at?

I suppose deep down we knew that but doesn't stop the hope that the itch had been scratched... Especially as he likes his racing MotoGp and Superbikes...

Last bike was the one he'd always wanted a 999R... This time he's looking at going back to a 'reliable' Jap 600...

Can't fault his taste; I'm officially jealous :), although I doubt I'd fit one of them. You can tell him it was a Multistrada 950 owner asking. ;)
