Hope you guys are OK down there, especially Crim. I see that liquifaction is in your area.

all good at my gaff, thanks mate - dig a neighbour out tomorrow again (be good for my motor) even got power on now, the kids have got the turtle sorted out now even the two year old yells "shakey shakey" and gets into a turtle on the floor![]()
Transalp fell off centrestand onto sawbench.Damage will inevitably be less than excess, so it'll just have to stay that way. Fortunately hardly any liquefaction at our place this time. Spare a thought for those in the east....
Nobody knows what human life is, why we come, why we go,
so why then do I know, I will see you in far off places?

Your poor Transalp.... again.
Mine was up on the trolley jack and I was undoing the front axle at the time.
Got a good look at how they rock in my garage, would have made good video.
I actually leaned against the wall and held on to the handlebars as she was rocking a bit on the jack but in the end I think it was stable enough to stay put without me (it's a wide jack).
In the slightly bigger shake which came later on I was upstairs and had to brace the PC tower. Don't stack a couple of external harddrives on top of your tower, it makes it top heavy which is bad.
Bikes stayed up unassisted in that too. Feel very lucky to be living in this Flat.

tenere fell over but the others stayed upright. street flooded again and liquifaction everywhere
Same, same, - I just got my rack of lamb delivered and everyone took off outside, I stayed and finished my meal (had to wait for the missus to come in and get me) was bloody good too! as was the bloke's next to me who had lamb pizza
.............don't think he was coming back, but I did miss out on the free beers all afternoon

Nothing of any note happened at home. Was just having a couple of beers at work in our new building. False ceiling makes strange squeaking noises but all good.
Phones started going with fellas having to get teams out looking at bridges and roads. Fell a bit sorry for the contractors who were hoping for a bit of time off and yet also feel sorry for those who need power, water, sewers working again too. Bloody terrible timing for all parties.
Anyways - hope all have a very Merry Christmas whatever their circumstances. Have a good one guys.
Cheers R

Course the blackbird fell over straight thu the kitchen wall as the wall was removed along with garage so the screen is broke andI need the metal internal parts for the mirror but I wil try to have it welded but it is made of dog shit........bedrom window broke and back garden again with liquifaction but at least the xt stayed upright.....sadly have a bigger problem......left leg is not working prperly after a back problem and pain in the left buttocks so think it is sciatic nerve maybe.........need to see the doc again soon as cos I have trouble walking and the leg has lost strength and keeps on giving way.........could be worse .......
Just seen the doc and he suspects a prolapsed disc which is putting the dusty and everything else in danger of being cancelled...........
dam the dusty butt is cancelled because of the pom
No no, but it sounds like the pom may be cancelled if he does the Dusty Butt.
Not a good thing to have I expect mr thepom.
