    I got my curtains today What a cool thing to come home to! My lovely man and a friend installed them too! It was a race to get them finished before I got home apparently

    Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

    I was supposed to get my curtains today and had my doubts...

    Ms hellokitty was to get her new bike today and missed out...

    I was rude enough to rub in the fact I got my curtains

    Guts for Cat!

    Though in my recent experience, the wait is worth it

    Yeah it was meant to be Saturday. Then it was Monday afternoon, Tuesday morning at the latest. Now it is Wednesday. I am beginning to think I imagined the whole thing... it is a figment of my imagination.

    What sort of bike? I am probably a little slow and have overlooked a thread already discussing it I am sure.

    For what it's worth, the man on the radio said the exact time of solstice was 5.19am this morning. So the sun is now approx 6 hrs 12 minutes on the way back...or 0.14147% of the way.

    Midwinter ride is every day Slofox,

    I did celebrate in style couple of days ago though.

    It was cold in the morning so I turned my trusty heated grips on. I am always very conscious of turning them off cause I don't have the fancy Relay mod installed cause I am too lazy

    But - as usual I am dumb so I left in on. Late at night I go to turn the key and the usual snappy EFI sound is someone more lazy then normal and I notice the lights on the headed grips come on and know exactly what I have done

    No worries I thinks, and I remember that the cleaver people at Oxford have a power saving feature which prevents the battery from running completely flat so I should be able to bump start it. I push it down our slight incline in the cold dark rain and dump the clutch only to hear the familiar sound of the slipper clutch which is so useful at Hampton Downs Sigh

    Oh well, parked it up and brought the charger and various tools in to work the next day, I should really get the relay installed.

    Ever since I sold the car, whenever I need to travel further than walking distance I ride - regardless of the weather or time of year. In Auckland it isn't even all that cold in June.
