I was toying with taking the kwaka over to Oxford tonight, but decided against it for 4 reasons:

a) my back is still killing me  :-[
b) too much junk to take over tonight - her dad's repaired laptop, assorted other computer bits, and Mrs TB needs to take a load of craft stuff over.
c) MV6 should be getting its filler sorted (so I don't have to keep removing numberplate when I fill up)
d) too many Omega bits scattered all over and around bike to get it out of the garage!

Strange concept I know, but some of us are surfing OOF working ;)


In fairness, I'm stuck on a *REALLY* boring conf call that they won't let me leave, even though the fault lies with their stuff

One day, I suspect you will have to do a proper days work.


How about trying a proper days work tomorrow, stripping Goldie ;D

There was talk of a ride up to Scotland, meeting up with Hotel21 who will show us the lovely roads of the Highlands :y

Anyone up for this?


If you dont fancy camping, rough or otherwise, how about this place?

http://www.clova.com/scottish-bunkhouse.cfm

prices....
http://www.clova.com/accommodation-prices.cfm

Lots of good roads nearby, good basis for a weekend.

If you want a 'wooden' tent there is access to a large double garage size hut about another 5 miles along a dead end track up Glen Clova.  Cold water to wash/drink in the nearby burn, crap in a tin, take your rubbish home with you type accomodation?

Bunkhouse has good hotel right next door with bar and real ales etc.......

How come '4-Poster' is cheaper than single room?  :-/

Still good prices, and think i would go for that rather than camping :)

Going to throw a date out there how about weekend 29th May? Thats a bank Holiday weekend?

Ooooo!  Shame about the weather (I am a fair weather biker  :-[) - I find my 1989 ZX10 a bit too much of a handful in the wet (it ain't that great in the dry ;D:-[
