    I went for a very pleasant bimble to Champion Mansions. It must be said
    that as Devastatingly Quick Cross Country Weapons go, the BlingMobile
    isn't. But it is very comfy.

    And if I never see another 17" Dymag again, it'll be too fucking soon.

    Good-o. How are we on the QD spindle nut? Are we still on the same
    system we lashed up after last times panic or did you manage to make one
    up (and a spare)?

    There's a kosher one coming from Maxton. No spare, but we'll keep the
    lash up as a back up.

    I can't sell it. I'm not allowed to.
    Cheeky monkey. It's nothing to do with the shame I'd feel if/when I
    failed it, honest.

    <G> I'm not surprised. I had the helmet flip-front open on the way home
    in a bid to stay awake, with yawns that were bouncing the visor off of
    the lid of the topbox.

    I think we're getting old, mate.

    Either way he'll be hell to live with next weekend.

    Hmm, not heard that one, although judging by a few of his mates that seems
    to be the case round here.

    I have advised him to dress smartly so as not to appear like a chav.
    Fingers crossed he'll pass.

    We have almost a solid day of driving today as its his last opportunity for
    prolonged practice.

    His mother and I passed first time, so it's not like he's under any pressure
    or anything [1].

    Good point, well made.

    X5's do sort of say "I'm a ****"

    The fluttering pages would keep you awake, I reckon.

    Anyway, it wasn't a problem on the Wing, was it?
