Just in from a 2.5 hour bimble around the shires, only to find I'd forgotten to shut the back door and patio when I went out, oops :shhh:

Might possibly have overdone 'dinner' !! Comes from not eating since two yoghurts at about 7.45 !!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

BUT - I still have a Millefuille (yeah, still can't spell that even if I have worked out which 'l's are silent) in the fridge that I bought yesterday. I do so want to eat it, but all the healthy stuff (mostly veggies for dinner) has made me feel like it would be a waste :( :( :(

On the ferry to Fuerteventura.

Bike needs ITV (MOT) but it's all been computerised now. Appointments only.

First on Lanzarote was 6 weeks.
But only 10 days waiting on Fuerteventura. So im heading there now.

Might go for a play after :obscene-birdiedoublered:

It passed no probs and they were impressed with the tyres scrubbed up from Jerez :obscene-birdiedoublered:


But they did make a big thing of the pillion seat having no passenger strap.

Right now having some scran here in Pajara. Lovely cafe and always pop in.

Had fun getting here, but the road from here up to Betancuria is the best I've ever ridden

Getting excited just thinking about it :)
