New addition to the fleet, modelled here by MrsR but used by us both...

This is named, for obvious reasons, Madge.  Actually it's both handy and fun.

How fast does it go mister? 😁

Finally actually got my ADHD diagnosis in writing after seeing the nurse at the clinic instead of the psychologist, who turned out never to have properly finished my diagnosis. Nurse was loads better at her job. 

I'm really fucking pleased, 'cause the check up revealed my blood pressure is back to normal (was pretty high in winter), and since Christmas I've lost 16kg - two and a half stone :shock:

It's "used" so there's no option list...

Interesting bit of kit ...

 

fantastic things the Shannon's, do 40+knots and like a bloody spaceship inside.

Mate of mine just finished his final exam to be the chief mechanic on the one here when it comes in a couple of months.

I'm 50 today and going to the plate day at Newcastle races. Plumbase where I get my gear from gave me two tickets with a value of £700.

Champagne reception, three course dinner, drink as much as you want, evening meal then Pete Tong and his 65 piece orchestra later on. 

I know nowt about horses (good thing right?) but usually have a flutter maybe a £5er a race with seven races.

A mate owes a favour so is picking us up at 11. I fitted a bannister for her auntie so she is picking us up later on.

Got a dreaded HM revenue & customs letter this morning. Usually not a nice thing to find on your doormat, meaning you owe them something!

Opened it up to find, shockingly, they owe me £1800!! And they found the error and contacted me about it! 
Overpaid tax apparently. Nice little bonus I wasn’t expecting.

Im off to eBay to look for things to spend it on😆

I've fortunately seen both the Ministry of Sound orchestra and Pete Tong and the Heritage orchestra and they're both incredible live. Well worth trying to be still alive at the end of the night for!

Partner had a drawing comissioned for me. I'm fingering my dog's arsehole for some reason.

She sent a load of photos and info and this is what he drew.

It says a lot about us.

There’s quite a bit going on that’s for sure! is the artist only allowed out at weekends under supervision , I can’t imagine having that displayed anywhere prominent

No idea with the cling film. That's the only bit that doesn't have any meaning. We do shop in tescos though.

Did the artist read a lot of Viz during their adolescence?

I kid you not this exact person posted up yesterday asking for someone cheaper than £200 as they'd put petrol into a diesel 🤦

Said post has obviously disappeared now!

Free? Like actually free or 'free-to-reel-you-in-then-actually-£500' Free? If the former, then just to show them what a weapons-grade cretin they are, its well worth taking it off their hands, calling WBAC and having it HIAB'd away and pocketing the £300+ IN FRONT OF THEIR HOUSE like a winner.

I’m just out walking the dog and I spotted this magnificent piece of street art.

15 hours till the race and the gaffer has decided it would look better with mirrors.

So where can we get those?

Need to not crash as it's booked out on hire on Tuesday Monday.

Edit 

Looks like we should have fitted wipers.
