However, however, deep breath, firstly had problems with the Autocom and Satnav which were being fitted to the Steed of Steel, so ended up stripping it all off and starting again, so now, touch wood, and with my own fair hands got it working. Next, after considering taking the new 1150 Time machine, the inevitable happened, the remote for the alarm immobiliser dropped off the keyring and the bike had to be uplifted by my "friends" from Brownlie's, and taken home - next step to have that fixed. Just as well I was not taking it and had that happen in France. Then, Saturday p.m. putting paperwork together and discovered that the MOT for the Steed had expired - sh*t, however, after a couple of calls arranged for an MOT this morning at Border Bikes, where Andy opened up to do a quick service and an MOT.
Last Thursday, made it to the Secret bunker in Fife, fascinating, and then had a tour around Fife, excellent day out.
Saturday was the wine / dinner night at the Mercat Grill, full house and what a marvellous meal we had - great night, excellent food and good company, what more can a man want.
So, now all (or nearly) packed up and ready for the off in the morning, Abington, Carlisle, Hull, and then the ferry over to Zeebrugger. For those with access to my Spot Tracker they can follow my travels around France.
