Came home about an hour ago and decided to have a quick ride on the Multi as I had some bits to pick up about 15 miles away. Went into my garage which is underneath my house and lubed my chain and checked tyre pressures etc and generally pottered about for nearly an hour. I never opened the garage door but went upstairs to get my phone from the bedroom, by this time I had got kitted up to ride and even had my helmet on.

Bit of a shock when I looked out the window! Lisa was amused though.

hell of a location mate.... Nelson... know it well.... used to go there to sell hoooky computer components...

[MARTIN H]

Todays gets stranger! Heard a low rumbling noise about 15 minutes ago but never bothered to see what it was. Just nipped out to bring some logs in from the pile and look whats been dumped in my drive! Would not mind if they had posted the keys through my door.

What a car! Whos is it? Should I follow the footsteps in the snow?

[Gizmo]

Nice sunny day up here Martin, but you probably said that a few hours ago... i might not bother going biking if its heading this way.

[MARTIN H]

Yup it was nice here hence me planning on using the Multi to do a few collections on. The M5 mystery as just solved itself though as I got a text of a mate of a mate whos girlfriend lives down the lane that leads to my house. He had got the car half way down and couldnt get back up so he carried on to the bottom and dumped it at mine. Everyones gone to the pub as nobody can get anywhere, Its great innit an hour of snow and everything grinds to a halt.

Nah, just let the tyres down, run your keys down the side and drop a log on the bonnet

Weeksy, I dont envy you having to deal with anyone in the town of Nelson these days. Its become a little like a wild west frontier town. I deal a lot with pubs and clubs in this area and its like Phoenix nights but worse. Some of the pubs are very similar to that bar in Star Wars that had every form of alien life form getting drunk.

Dont quite know which way to take "drop a log on the bonnet!"
