Start of the six nations again, just after half time and England winning.

Must not be biased, just need to wait till full time to see who are the best team.

Dougz appeared yesterday and we managed to get the Autocom working on the Steed of Steel,  only ten months after I bought it,  but then found that my BMW helmet had further bits missing,  been a serious "pig in the poke" that one, probably made under licence somewhere to save money.   But I plan to visit the Motorrad open day at the lady Victoria mining museum tomorrow morning so I can raise it with the management of BMW.

Well done Jordan for taking the IS to task,  time the whole world did likewise,  but Russia seems hell bent on stirring things up in their own neck of the woods.  Must watch what I say, might end up with radio active poisoning !!!

Edinburgh Council allegedly plan to spend £10 million on the roads and pavements,  about time as I nearly lost the suspension on the  Smart car as it disappeared down a hole in the road.  Might well be the case soon that it will be much safer to use a park and ride and hope the buses can make it through the potholes.  My mate Steve has just found a motorcycle trip through Nepal and I am sure the roads there will be much better than Edinburgh.

Gary Glitter now joins Rolf Harris in jail,  looks like prisoners might not want early release as the prison concerts are getting better - especially those in drag roles.

Made it to Loanhead last to 580, first class meeting , and with a bit of luck should make it to my Mither Shed in Edinburgh tomorrow.

Have had conversations with various branches of VW about the car during past couple of days,  so Western VW charge £85 + vat per hour labour !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    How many of their mechanics earn that money ????   Guess what is paying for big shiny garages and suited posers earning good commission on sales  -  no wonder I was treated like a low life by the last salesperson I met there, because I did not want to buy a new car.  I wonder what the mark up on a new car from the factory really is.

England now in the lead - game getting scrappy - hope Scotland do better in France tomorrow night.
