Cheers, SB
I have to say Seb; even with my over-fertile imagination, I have absolutely no concept of what you were trying to say there.

Let's just put that one down to the different hobbies of Aussies vs Kiwis.

Geez, my translation powers must be fading!

When Knackie and I finished the USA import CBR1000f Hurricane, we were meant to be working in the shed, welding racks to store all the goodies in the shed. The reason we decided to do that was because Mrs SB was at work........

The next day she was NOT at work so we did what we were meant to do - building and welding the racks up.

Summing up. While the cat is away the mice will play.

Piece of puss really!

Cheers, SB

Glad you cleared that up Seb.

As you can probably imagine; I was beginning to put the pieces together and not really liking the answer.

"Mrs SB at home", "racking", "head down, bum up", "welding sticks".

I was starting to think that you had cleaned up the shed enough for her to finally come down and do an accurate stocktake.

And she was possibly, none too pleased with the final tally.

Good to see I was totally on the wrong track.

Cheers
TK

Very nice Seb nice work & well done..

Yeah the US indicators stay lit and of course as dual Citizen I can attest to that
in all confidence

I'm thinking we should have a "Who's got the most untidy garage/shed contest" !

I know I've got a good shot at it but never know might get pipped by .......................
somebody else

^^^^^

What are you saying Sprock??? Oh the digital shame of it all..........

Knackie and I were meant to be tidying the shed (making racks etc) when we chose to finish the bike.

Give me another week or so and I'll do another video when it is tidy(er)!!

Cheers, SB

Well, from Colorado things are looking pretty fine.

So, what I read from this deal is that the bureaucrats have rigged it so's you can't take a fine ol' girl like this out on the roads, natch?

Not so good. I could never understand the bizarre interest foreign governments have in the driving affairs of their citizens. If it runs and meets emissions here, it's roadable - providing you pay your taxes on it.

Quite ashamedly, I might just have a genuine shot at winning that right at the moment.

The height of summer brings the landscaping chores more to the forefront.

Heck TK, do what we do - have a barby and forget about the mess.

Fire up that magnificent hibachi thingy that officially is not a barbeque, pour yourself and Mrs Teeks an ice cold Monteith's Cider, kick back and enjoy your surroundings.

Cheers, SB
