Was wondering about that too  might take us 30 minutes to get there if we drive slow 
Anyhow we are just about to leave from home now... started raining one hour ago and probably will rain the whole afternoon! 
Looking forward to a beer on the ferry tonight, while the clothes get dry in the cabin (hopefully)

Shouldn't you be riding and enjoying yourself or something instead of nattering on here?

Sadly true but had I remembered the bloody oil, perhaps we might have started it up when you were last here. Even if we had got it going though, I couldn't stop it ... without brakes

Paul, Never mind the pictures - just wait til you hear the stories mate!  Currently in Bielefeld at Nick's house with Dave. Let's just say that they are going to think twice about letting me give navigational advice.
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

Your coils & CDI are safe in my saddlebags - fortunately no one needed them!! However, can you let us have your chain as a spare for next year!! 
I am not back at work until Wednesday so can drop them off for you if you want.

You know what, along with forgetting the ht leads, I was going to suggest that (as it's a pretty new chain)!

Only gives you tomorrow chap but it's up to you if you fancy a trip out - forecast ( ) for tomorrow is supposed to be bright intervals ...
I'll be in all day but if I do go out, it won't be far.
