Not being able to ride at the moment as I have two bald tyres and the new ones haven't arrived yet I am relegated to just walking everywhere. About 18 months ago my wife bought me a drone to take with me on my motorbike travels but Covid hit so after flying it a couple of times its been in the cupboard, yesterday I found it charged the batteries up and took it out for a play while walking the dogs just to see if I could remember how it works...? I did manage to get some decent footage of the area behind our house.4 points

My brother in law to one of my older sisters is a welder, worked offshore, loads of money. Helped me out with my fine repayments many times. He went a got himself an Audi 100 5E. I thought he was nuts. Sorry, best pic I could find. After driving him around to different pubs and taking him home it was mine for the night. I ragged the shit out of the thing, racing everything in sight, handbrake burnouts, you name it. It was a good pulling machine too. Hated the thing at first but what a refined bit of kit, I loved it in the end.4 points

I cut back across a recreation ground. Every time I go that way I stop to look at this small tree. It always looks like it has hair to me. Today it was windy so the hair was blowing about like David Coverdale trying to do his sexy look whilst a fan is doing 400mph right into his face.4 points

Trying to go for a walk or a pedal every day if I can, sick of keep having to go up a trouser size every few years. Today was riding into the bitter wind day, can't believe it was summer only last week. I ended up in the town centre where there were some poor people wandering about, saw this out of the corner of my eye. I don't think it was a real frog, but it might have been a real Yamaha.4 points

I will answer in parts as sadly I have a very unique perspective of Morocco as a tourism destination. Ouarzazate is very well known as a location for the film industry, and lots of hollywood celebrities used to do holidays in Morocco, it's more of a secret that movies are shot there in the US and Europe than in Morocco Pastilla, a mix of sweet from sugar and cinnamon on the outside with sour like salty from the spices like turmeric and cumin, with a little bit of a kick sometimes. It's not my thing as I only like sweet in fruit or dessert. We did have a paper map, w4 points

He had it back in April last year. He was hallucinating at one point due to a fever, frightened his missus at the time. It is still affecting him he says, gets breathless easily still etc. He owns a wood in Hertfordshire now, a roman road runs down one side of it and he has his own hives there and makes honey. There are two trees in the middle that have grown to embrace each other. The old owner used to let some 'witches' use it once a year for some ceremony and Dave let them carry on, he was worried about being turned into a frog I expect.4 points

Something about one of Yen´s stories from today's posts reminded me of this friend I have from college called Lobato, he is like a real life Seinfeld mixed with The Three Stooges and Indiana Jones. Amongst several stories, he was on the subway heading to visit the World Trade Center while it was being flown into and collapsing, very much to his surprise as he and another friend emerged from the subway to a big frenzy and a very dusty NYC, before being questioned by the FBI for a few hours. Now, the story I recall is usually told by another friend who was also involved and goes something l4 points

Always wondered why people bought woods. We've two for sale around here and have been on the market for years - clearly a low demand for honey or too many witches I guess.3 points

They do motorcycle training as well. When I moved up this way I resigned from my part time instructor's job, telling the owners that I didn't think I would want to ride down on Saturday and Sunday and spend all day on a bike after doing 500 miles of commuting during the week. They said that was silly, they did it, coming in to Hornchurch from Maldon every day. I pointed out that that they got the profits, I got minimum wage. I did drop in on a training school near my new location and they offered me a job, but I couldn't stomach the thought of it any more. I also paid Benson's a visi3 points

Can't remember, might have been something going on I wanted to be at. I didn't tell anyone at home I had no job for about 2 weeks, just went out on my bike in the morning and rode around for the day.3 points

Perfecting my eggplant lasagna: No cooking, just a healthy lunch with some cheese for taste: Sofia's rib, spinach and dahl: Again, Sofia's amazing oven roasted aubergine and pepper dip, some cured ham, cherry tomatoes, and goat's cheese for lunch. An entree of cured black pig, some bread and local wine, simple flavours in my untamable garden My spicy onions and canned sardines dish with leftover dahl, a nice mix:2 points

"... depois não te queixes que o arroz tem formigas" word by word translated to "then don't complain there are ants in your rice". You use it a situation where someone is talking like they are acting or going to act careless, and you reply that "ok, you can do that but then don't come back complaining about current circumstances"2 points

A friend of mine used to own a repair garage where he done MOT failure work like welding on new parts that had rusted off or patching rusty holes. He said if it wasn't for Ford, Vauxhall, Rover and Peugeot he'd be out of a job2 points

I reckon it was the same thing. It was one step up from the YOP scheme in that I got £39 a week instead of £25. At the end of the year they gave me a permanent job, still on very low wages mind, but a bit more than they paid the labourers. After about 3 years working there (I was about 20) I got called in one Monday morning by the owner, a bloke called Reg Simmonds who always reminded me of Michael Caine, a very nice man. I had forgotten to lock up the petrol saws we used to cut samples of bigger stuff on the Friday and they had been stolen, so I thought I was in for a telling off. But in2 points

One of my alltime favourites (since I was a kid in fact) was Steve Marriott! Greatest rocker and showman that ever came out of Britain IMO. Never got the recognition (or the money) that he deserved, and sadly died in a house fire in 1991. Here's Tin Soldier from 1968 with PP Arnold.....classic 60's stuff! And 50 years later PP Arnold (now in her 70's) is still doing it. But check out the young guy who she brought in to do Marriott's bit. His name is Jake Fletcher......and he really nails it!2 points

Bloody hell. That is an Epic tale of motorcycling adventure. Quite honestly you are way too good for this site and make the rest of us look bad. Well, not me because I dont ride. I hope Mucho pays you a stipend because reports like that are rare and epic. Bastid probably just gave you a like and said it was great before doing a runner. I'm quite fatigued now going through this. I'll have to leave the other 3 for another day. ITS FUCKING SPIRITUAL MAN. AWESOMNESS IN A PAGE. You seen this shit RIGS? Makes Baja tame and you look fat. And where's that Ozzie Gringo. Now we know why1 point

So, leaving the golden dunes of Merzouga, we planned on sleeping on Mhamid. It's only around 400km but the trip would be what I longed for when dreaming of visiting the desert. After a hearty breakfast of Msemmen and lowering my heart beat on colesterol alone, we made way, it was a hot day and you felt it from early on. The rain drops that had fallen two nights before, along with the desert sand, left the bike a mess. Here I'm collecting an acacia thorn, the desert toothpick, and proceeding to stab myself in the finger.1 point
