grendel Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Ah my old BMW R80RS was a good bike for distances, after 8 hours riding you could still walk. (and it was no slouch covering a lot of distance in those 8 hours either) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadAmbition Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 So there I am updating mine and MrsG's social diary as one does, at least twice a week nowadays (We seem to be in ever increasing demand of late). We have been patiently waiting on dates from friends of ours giving us dates they are available so we can book a four day weekend afloat onboard 'B.A' with them. The long awaited dates arrived earlier this evening at last. The Issue there is that as we complete the weekend afloat on the Sunday and therefore due to drive home, just three days later me and MrsG are booked onboard 'B.A' again to commence time afloat taking in the Harvest Moon weekend and the wooden boat show at Beccles. MrsG asks me, 'Why don't we just stop down there onboard? Seems daft coming home for just three days' Hmmmm, just give me a nanosecond to contemplate that one and come up with a suitable huge YES Griff 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meg Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Griff you always strike me as a man happy" just being", if you contemplate "not being" its a darn good swop.
