    Just had a call from my line manager. It went along the lines of "we've got a full crew next Friday, why don't you take the whole day off" Boingering early? Don't mind if I do!

    Cheers Gramps and Pauly!

    I had today off work, as I have to work Sunday, which should have been my Sunday off.

    We were out all day and only got home at around 10.45. Although the 17 year old muppet had taken my doggy out for her evening walk around 6.30, I walked her again and gave her her tea.

    It was quite a nice day, combining a "family day out" with a visit to El Presidente, Mick......

    I had a toy of Mick's to drop off for him, as I didn't want to be leaving it in the car at Silverstone to deliver on my shortened Bash visits. So, when I knew I'd be having today off, I suggested to 'er indoors that I deliver said toy to Mick and maybe take the bin lids to Twycross Zoo. She suggested a visit to Dove Dale in Derbyshire instead, so that was do-able on the way back from Mick's. We also had a grand gremlin to drop off with its mother.

    Anyway, unfortunately, this wasn't going to include a visit to our Hallowed Hollow, as Mick was working flat out getting a boat readied at a marina near Nuneaton.

    Mick....lovely to see you again matey. And your work on that boat looks awesome! That marina is in a lovely setting, and I'd have loved to have enjoyed a nice ice cream in the sun in that lovely setting. As Sarah explained to me, though, it would hardly have been a relaxing, enjoyable event, as the Grizzly Grand Gremlin was ever so prickly, squealing like the mad, demented, snotty nosed little shit that he is.

    So, off we headed for Derbyshire.

    But, as I say, it was fantastic to see The Boingermeister and I waved and blew kisses towards The Hollow as I drove by on the 444.

    Bloody hell, I've just noticed that it's after midnight. It's Saturday!!!. A week to go, peeps; will have to go and knock another sleep off the counter thingy soon once Bremby's had her late walk.

    BOING!!

    It was great to see you and Sarah, Tone.

    It was really good of you to come out of your way to drop off my new toy, it will be in bits in the morning so that I can sort out the stiff cocking --- I think it just needs a clean out and relube.

    I managed to finish the hull repairs this afternoon and I just have a few bits to alter in the engine bay before I'll be happy with the job.



    Thank you once again




    All the best Mick

    It'd be nice if the MotoGP got cancelled!
