    Groan. The fucking wiring is taking me forever.

    Think this is day4. (I haven't been overly motivated). Just gotta hook up the aftermarket dash now...and figure out which loom branch I mistakenly hid the rear brake light switch wires.

    Well I'm not going to vote for you if your brand of religion bans the sale of alcohol on holidays, as I found out yesterday which fucked me off no end.

    So what are you going to do about that? Huh? Huh?


    Oh. You'll allow it?

    You, Pope Brian, thousands of Mrkn evangelical fuckers, and L Ron Hubbard. I maintain that any religion is a scam perpetrated by con men to make themselves wealthy at the expense of others.
    I thought elections were decided by angry posts on social media. - F5 Dave

    My current project is eating an enormous pie. At 8pm, the next project will be mowing the lawns. Again.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    And as far as I know they're also exempt from paying tax!

    Tax exempt status of destiny church was revoked a couple years ago, dunno if they've been reinstated since.

    Yup. In early October 2017, the Department of Internal Affairs issued notice to remove two of Destiny Church's biggest charities, Destiny International Trust and Te Hahi o Nga Matamua Holdings, of their charitable status. Destiny Church took immediate legal action and subsequently to date they still retain their charitable status with the Department of Internal Affairs.[72]

    In late October 2019, the High Court restored the charitable status of Destiny International Trust and Te Hāhi o Ngā Mātāmua Holdings. Destiny's lawyer Ron Mansfield confirmed that the two charities were complying with the law.

    Hmmmm, where and how to mount the speed sensor.

    Front sprocket is the tidy option, but it'll be quite the bastardto fab a sprocket cover to hold it.

    Tidying up the shed, found a few things I thought I'd lost forever, plus about 6 or 7 ice-cream containers full screws to sort out. Gib fix bugle head, rwinfasts, posidrive , square drives, in all sorts of lengths. Then there are the slotted wood screws, PKs, metric and imperial threaded, nuts, washers and so on. Wondering if the remaining week or so will be enough

    Only got 2 bikes in the garage, one for work and one for play. Both of them recently serviced, so now seemed like the time to do a deep clean. Wash, detar and then into it with the clay bar. The Busa came up damn near brand spanking, bar the odd stone chip, with the FJR not too bad either. Next up the nano coat onto the paintwork, glossy and slippery as fuck sums it up. Polish up the shiny stuff, and really hanging out for a ride, well end of week one actually

    Two cars, done the same, wash, detar, clay bar the paintwork. Nano coat the paintwork, nice result. Vinegar to clean water spots from the glass and mirrors.

    Looked at my work ute...same despite it only being a few months old.

    Bit of spring cleaning at home, no kids and near new house, so apart from some reading and Youtube surfing, slowly going bonkers

    Working from home only kept me busy for a few days, now I can't wait to get back to work, same as most folks I guess

    Had a GSX750 tank dropped to the mailbox by the neighbour, all sterilized with methylated spirits.
    Looked like colander on one section underneath.
    A bit of acid & the big old electric soldering iron was the best home solution I had.
    If it was on a visible part of the tank I would have kept at it until it was completely flat.

    hi bob, looks pretty good to me, if you haven't already you may want to nutrilize the acid on the inside, I think bicarb of soda but uncle google will tell you the truth
