Ups and Downs

After the Blackbird was rammed up the back (luckily , no damage) by a mad 4x4 (long story which I might unhide someday, but he cut me up then tried to ram me off the road!!) yesterday i thought I'd treat myself to a pressie, so I went and bought a new jacket, with lots of holes in it....a Bering ventilated one....

What a revelation, getting cooling whilst riding, lovely.

Just wish I'd had it last year whilst couriering in that heatwave...

I was going to the cop shop
David Crowson [Blogs::Dave] 17:06 28/07/04
to report the dangerous knob in the white 4x4, reg T118 ALP, who decided that he'd occupy the space in my lane that I was in (pushing me into the curb at the Hersham/Esher tl's). After I'd got in front of him (doing about 35) and waved at him to protest about his non-use of the mirrrors and near accident I decided to get on with it and leave well alone, but I had to slow for traffic to about 20mph. It was then that he decided to ram the back of the bike (whilst we're still moving). I was very very lucky to stay upright (I felt the back of bike lift off the ground and the bars went sidways then recovered). I then gestured for him to stop, but he just drove off. Unbelievable.

Never, ever in all my years of riding has anyone ever done anything like that, it was bloody scary.

There appears to be no damage to the bike at all, not even a scuff, god bless plastic bumpers.

I could understand it if I was a total hooligan , harassing car drivers, weaving in and out of traffic and the like, I just never expected that sort of thing when I'm pootling along trying to mind my own business at or below the speed limit.

Live (thank you supreme being) and learn I guess :-/

There I was chillin in the garden after a hard 3 days and nights on the go when this almighty rush of air and roar slowly started getting louder, then very very loud , then 4 harrier jump jets in diamond close formation buzzed the house at 250ft, bloody fantastic, gotta love the Farnborough airshow, just wish I could've got the camera fired up quicker , but those boys were gone in seconds...

Been trying to set up the work vpn so I can connect in from home.

Their techie couldn't tell me which ports to open on the firewall to allow the software to work. He wanted me to turn off the firewall instead, ugh....

Simple Minds
David Crowson [Blogs::Dave] 02:21 18/07/04
Well, what can I say, that was totally mindblowing, strolled up to the woman on the ticket collection point and asked if she had any tickets for sale and after a bit of haggling (this was 6pm Sat) managed to get 2 weekend tickets for 25 squib each (which are normally 70 ea).

Saw Katie Mehlua, I led the shout for the encore (the crowd cheered:), then on came Simple Minds. Wow, totally outstanding, brilliant, made me feel like I was back in 1986.......movies on the web page soon...

Missed out on Sunday, due to being too knackered, and missed the Undertones, Damned, Stranglers and Blondie on friday but even with that it was a top weekend......

PS Simon I have a pressie for you other than the disk case :) See me later......
