    Aww Poo, scrap Satan and get a bike, coz at least tehn I have at least a snowballs chance in hell of guessing the afflicting disease!


    Sarsie, I think my biking days are over. I've just go too used to the creature comforts of the beast that is the car now.

    I used to have a Kawasaki GPz500s, but I had to have the suspension dampened and some of the seat cut out as, unlike you, I am a bit of a short @rse at only 5'1.5" tall.

    Maybe we shouldn't stand too close to each other when in the group! lol

    Just replied to emails, so you'll all have my mobile number now and know of my whereabouts and duration of stay.

    Looking forward to seeing you all.

    Now I am definitely going to bed, got work in the morning!

    Night all and sleep well

    Poo

    P.S. Don't forget to put the cat out!

    P.P.S. Shoot I left the cat out!

    Aww Sb. If it's any consolation, the grass isn't really greener on the other side, it's just a different shade of green!

    Sometimes I wish there was someone here to tell me to get off the pc and go to bed. And to get up in the morning. And to do the washing up - must do that tomorrow! And to stop snacking and go make a proper meal!

    Hmm.. maybe not!

    I have some good news and some bad news.

    Actually I don't think I have any good news yet.

    Anyway, the bad news is Satan blew a gasket! (So the consensus of opinion is having looked at Satan's engine). I didn't feel anything. I suppose there is a bit of good news in that the engine hasn't siezed. The temperature gauge was off the scale - I only noticed this travelling 80 pmh along the M6 in the outside lane.

    So, I decided to top up the water in the radiator. He was very thirsty. Drank 8 pints of water. I'm guessing the radiator didn'thave much water in it then! lol It's been a while since I took Satan anywhere near a mechanic. Last time I was at my mechanics someone advised him (having worked on Satan for 4 days already) to give me £200 and tell me to F.O. Bless him - he only charged me £120 for his labour!

    Anyway, so Satan had a drink of water, so I thought he might be hungry as well so I checked the oil. There was some black stuff in it - never think to check this one as it doesn't have an oil leak. My last car I just used to put a litre in every month or so. Anyway, I put some of the golden stuff in and he seems to be running ok now.

    I may need to get a new car before I come down to Littlehampton. But I kind of think, "Better the devil you know" kind of thing.

    Oh well, I'll see tomorrow on the way into work if the water and oil has cured him.

    Poo

    P.S. I daren't get an oil change because I'm afraid the wheel will fall off - I slid into the kerb in the icey weather! EEK! - the steering wheel wobbles a bit but only up to 60 mph, smoothes out after that.

    Will Satan make it the almost 400 mile round trip? Who know's but we'll have fun trying!

    Time for bed now

    Good night all

    Poo

    If the water level drops and the oil level rises,
    Then little Poo can expect some surprises.

    Remember that. I just made it up as an aide memoire.

    If you hit the kerb just cough
    Then your wheels won't fall off.

    The journey of a thousand miles
    Starts with a blown gasket.

    First Call breakdown is good and very cheap
    Now will you lot please go and get some sleep...


    PMH? Is that Poo Miles per Hour?

    I've only just found this thread over the past few days. I've done my best to get up to speed on it but only managed to get about 30 or so pages in! Just read the summary on page 153 :)

    Would like to say Congratulations on what you have achieved so far, and all my best wishes for the future (( hugs )) :D

    When is the show being broadcast, or have I missed it? I really hope not, because although I haven't been here since the beginning, I'd love to see how things turn out.
