Hello again folks,
Apologies for being absent for so long (not that I expect anyone's noticed!
)
Have been pre-occupied lately by quite a few things...
Working loooong hours, and through weekends too.
Selling our old motorhome, and searching all over the country for a new one (well, new to us) that fits our needs.
Family weddings.
Having a month touring round Europe in the afore-mentioned new-to-us motorhome.
Working even longer hours to catch up on the work missed since being away for the afore-mentioned month.
Getitng myself back onto 2-wheels! Got a 1979/80 Honda Superdream 400. Bought as a restoration project from a 74-yr old gent who's owned her for 25yrs! He was asking peanuts for it (the price of a couple of good nights out!), with full MOT but no tax. It looked a mess (the poor chap couldn't bend down to clean it, so it just got left), but I took a punt on it given it was rideable. Got it home, and stripped it down. Gave it a good dousing in Gunk. Under all the grease and grime was a spotless machine. Gave it a further good scrub and polish, built it up again, and she's come up like a new penny! Still a few bits n bobs to sort out, but the bulk of it's done
Oh, and the main thing, my Miggy flew through her MOT at the beginning of Oct, not even a single advisory! And the MOT tester said "that's the cleanest car underneath I've seen for years", to which I said "It can't be - you told me that last year!!"
Fortunately he has a sense of humour!
So what's new on here? Have I missed much? I have been checking in now-and-then, but it's mostly been on my mobile, and it doesn't have the best screen to read off really...
