    Was this after that ten percent berserker lager mate? I’m guessing you ate some firewood sprinkled in rabbit droppings 🤣🤣🤣

    Good point Chris. I could have eaten anything and not known about it. There were definitely pretzels in the tea tent though. I though Mr BBF had brought them (this was before Denmark's nuclear option was consumed..)

    Yep didn't know if 'Nice Ray' was coming or not. Apparently he did (and didn't deliver), so it's lucky there was a few nibbles that followed me up To be fair to BBF though, his cakes are far more posh

    Great day catching up with those I managed to speak to, and hopefully see all of you again before the year is out. Big thanks to Neil for his ongoing mammoth efforts to keep the bash running, and impeccably well too

    Smile New job -Yay!

    Oh yes, indeedy, all official now.

    Got confirmation of the new job yesterday and resigned today, so all systems go!

    Pretty soon I'll no longer be selling those Beemers. All the corporate fun police will be behind me and their silly, restrictive rules, practices and I.T systems.

    I'll still be sorta in the bike job selling clothing and accessories, but in a much, much more relaxed environment.

    Spookily enough, I'll be working in the same building that I worked in when I started selling bikes just over 25 years ago. And be under the wing of the same chap as I was all that time ago, too. It's almost like coming home......

    Can't wait!
