One week, two suite and a dose of cellulitis later
500 ViewsI have been pumped so full of painkillers and antibiotics this week that I feel no pain which is not a good thing. Not a good thing if pain is a warning that you really should stop what you’re doing and go lie down until the swelling desists. Mrs Bartholomew of number 42, I hope you particularly enjoy your new loose covers since it has been nothing short of miraculous that they were done at all. I feel rather smug about that, now get your cheque book out dear.
This has also been the week of NW200 which I happily missed altogether. I had planned to take a run up to the north coast for the day today, to sniff the remains of two stroke in the air, for two stroke and leather is the only reason to want to be anywhere near a motorbike or a lawnmower for that matter. Work and a gammy leg put an end to that idea. Seen one race, seen them all, is fairly true of motorbike racing so my heart is far from broken at not having been there for the event of the year and neither is my neck stiff from watching bikes pass by faster than my head cares to rotate. Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyommmmmmmmmmmm.

Hope your feeling better soon.Is it an allergy to that Glastry Ice cream?
Much better thanks
It apparently started when my leg broke the fall of a large wooden towel rail which jumped off the wall because some idiot* had forgot to tighten up the screws after painting.

Hope you feel better as well.
I was there at the NW200 and I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed every second of my time in Portrush, as well as the smell of two stroke and the noise of those superstock bikes there was also the added attraction of the odd pint of guinness. I had three friends come over with me to Ireland for the first time and they were extremely surprised and delighted at the warm welcome and hospitality shown by everyone. Total strangers stopping to have a chat about everything from steam trains up the Causeway to 250bhp superbikes. The atmosphere was tremendous and the weather stayed fine for the entire trip. I think were going back next year.
Is it your gear change or your braking leg that sux-ilitus
it was the breakaleg accelleritis one.
I suppose you were one of the eejits flying along the roads at 140mph.
