What's Boiling Your Pi$$ Today?

I know not everyone here are football fans, I'm losing my interest in it rapidly. I saw they stopped the game at Burnley last night at the 41st minute so the Muslim players could take on food and drink because of Ramadan, well couldn't they wait 5 minutes to half time or is this more virtue signaling and rubbing that crap in our faces.
Give them a bacon butty, that would make them run, what next prayer mats and the home goal facing mecca

A mate sent me a copy of the report, ruddy boils my piss when we still insist on looking for female / BAME folk to use as PR, what the RAF have to do with this is another thing it should be the Fleet Air Arm who take up this as it's a Naval theme

Dropped my Monster 😫😢

Stalled when turning right, off balance, and started to go, thought I'd saved it but the handlebar grip came off in my hand and bike ended up on the floor. Pulled cable out of heated grip, bent brake level, but I think and hope that's it.

Horrible feeling when you drop your pride & joy mate, sounds like you got off lightly, but still fooking annoying! :oops:

Hope it's an easy fix and your ok @Scrappy 👍 🦆

As I always say, if that's my only 'off' this year, I'll take it.

Pride and fixables damaged, not you - that's the main thing.

Were any edibles involved? My similar tales of recent years involved cherries and an abandoned burger - both made it slippery when I put my foot down and led to the drop.

From what I can see the damage is; front and back brake levers both bent, very small dent in exhaust header pipe, heated grip wires pulled out, big bruise on left shin, and pulled right calf muscle. Looks like I got off lightly, with no damage to paint/plastics.

What I can't figure is how I've bruised my left leg when the bike went down on the right 😕, did my right calf muscle trying to save it I think 🤔

I've got no recollection of what happened to me, if I hit deck or not, all I can remember is the bike starting to go and me thinking "please no", then "oh fuck! 😥".

A nice chap stopped on his bike, helped me pick mine up and tried to make sure everything was ok :)

If it has to happen, then yes this is a light one.

I can't blame anyone but myself, I'd just left home only travelled about a couple of miles. I'd stopped to turn right and then when clear went to pull away and stalled it, but the bike had forward momentum and committed to the turn with no power ☹️

As with others just glad there is no lasting damage to pride or Joy! Give her shapely calves a nice warm bath and be grateful it wasn't worse. There's a lesson in there about getting a grip..... and gluing it fast. My first adhesive didn't hold my heated grips onto the chrome either....

You'll never unsee that dented header and it will remind you that no speed can be as awkward as too much!

My genuine commiserations. Bastard!

Thanks @Don the Don, I'm okay and it gives me an excuse to partake in some more Irish anaesthetic kindly donated by @DD67 😁 🥃
We really do need to have a serious chat about your whiskey consumption Scrappy! 😳

I gave you that days ago. The empty bottle should have been gracing the inside of your bin long before now! 🧐

@BAD LUCK DUCK has been to my house & witnessed how whiskey should be poured & consumed. I'm sure he can give you some tips 😃
