So what frivolous things have you bought lately? Why?

The South is a lovely place and the locals are always friendly. We crossed to Belfast in 2018 and toured the Antrim coast, following the beaches and across Connemara around to Galway It was a fun trip, but nothing beats the Copper Coast road and Cork through to Kerry and round to Dingle.
I love Kerry, it's full of mental. I had to get the generator case of my GSX 1100 welded up after 'doing a Duck' and losing the front in Tipperary on gravel on the way from Kerry to Dublin. Then my mate Russ beat me in the 'fucking idiot' challenge by pasting his Jota into a campervan in Wicklow. We straightened it enough to ride to the ferry but he had to train the bike home from Holyhead.

If I went back and had half the adventures I'd be happy. I'll try to involve the Garda less as a 'mature rider'

A mixture, Ireland is with friends, 10 of us on 6 bikes will be staying in small hotels and pubs. Norway, just the 2 of us will be 2 nights each way on ferries, then hotels, camping and staying in campsite huts. Portugal is another group ride, a night on the ferry each way, hotels en route to a villa for a week.
You lucky bar steward...
I had planned to do so much like that on the versys but then the state took away our freedom and now I'll never go anywhere...
Should have spent my money on an assault rifle grenades and body armour and stormed parliament is what I should have done 🤬🤬🤬🤬🦆

If you want to drive a vehicle with minimal range like a milk float that fine by me but the virtue signalling plates get a 🤮

That gov incentive is also going to raise a two tier driving community, those who can afford to buy or put themselves in hock for green motors and get all types of benefits and those who will remain and pay through the nose to avoid having to either take out loans or use up their savings to buy something they don't want or need.

I’m impressed you can bend that far down Jez, that taps at about bollock level for me which if I could headbutt that tap would mean I could touch my toes - something I haven’t done since about 1995:)
Get this for illogical...
The kitchen version of a mixer tap is usually able to swing from left to right. Leaving a clear space above the sink.
Why would you need that unless you where washing an extremely tall object in there? Like a small dog or a child. (Hands up who was bathed in the kitchen sink when they were a crumb-snatcher 😗)

Yet a mixer tap in a bathroom is fixed. And I bang my head on it! 🧐
Come the revolution, brothers & sisters. Anyone found in possession of a fixed mixer tap!...... 😡 😉
