    Oooh Boddy :j when are you going? any chance you can squish me in your bag :D

    Welcome back Outofmoney :hello:

    The heavens have opened, it's lovely to see actually we could really do with a good downpour :T Had to finish the line of washing off in the TD though, but that's nowt.

    Been to Iceland for pack-up stuff and OH's to look at his finished roofy thing and a brew.]

    Gonna make a weeks worth of sarnies for the freezer soon and make the tea, oh and the WM is on again but will be getting put on the airer :money: I've got an itching to sort out my paperwork corner, it's tidy and all that but I like to tweak it now and again to make sure there's nothing there that shouldn't be :o

    We've got friends who are at Silverstone at the moment, I said 'that's bikes right' :o they're soaked but having a smashing time.

    Its the 22nd of June. The gardens and castle are shut to the public until about 2pm. There are 3 zones and Im in the red one in the castle. We have to stay in our zone until told we can move around. It looks like the Queen will spend some time in each zone. I have to take my passport for ID. Im staying at a friends overnight she lives just 5 mins away. Im going to see if I can stay another night as when it reopens to the public there is more entertainment and cream teas.

    Poor OH was indeed soaking wet and freezing cold but he enjoyed it, unlike the usual football, rugby etc that bores him silly. I would love to go and watch the bikes at some point, but it makes us both miss it and we agreed when we had the boys that we wouldn't both go on the bike again, and he doesn't like going without me on the back. Romance is not entirely dead even after ten years :) More importantly my leathers are far too big!

    WM has been on over drive today and the basket is empty. Need to iron and sort an over night bag for OH tomorrow, Cheated and had dinner out so an unexpected night off for me which is lovely. For some bizarre reason he thought I would just eat toast for the next few days *whistles innocently*

    DW is on again, and I really need to get the dyson out.

    OH was dribbling rather at the bikes. We have a 2000 VFR but it is old now, and he wants something new that doesn't cripple his back. Lovely bike though, beautiful noise.

    Boddy

    Bonsi - keep meaning to say good to see yuu back - been a long time
