Bleedin' Blogs

We've now hit February 2nd ...

And still trying to navigate my way around the blog-site. I've made a couple of minor edits okay, but don't feel really confident about the whole thing. I've got a bid in on Ebay for a Garmin GPS, so hoping to get this bit of kit ticked off the trips wish-list. On that note ... now have some bike boots (thanks Kim) and a tent on the way too.

January 26th 2007

Am currently frustrated with Blogspot here ..... I've tried numerous times to edit out a bit in an earlier posting, after leaving a comment following a blue with Kim. After a dozen attempts at editing then re-posting, it still sits in the pre-published version laughing at me. And that's not all .... don't seem to be able to get it to upload photo's. Unless I can get this to work reliably will be of little use when on Walkabout 'proper' later this year. F'Chrissakes this a try-out!!!!

Let's have another go in this completely new posting.

Doh!!! I worked this time!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaand, its one of me n' Kim just after I'd bought the Sportster.

Hey, Cool looking bike! Shame, it's no good for the big trip I'm planning. I've really thought about it. No, honestly ... I have! And to any dyed-in-the- wool Harley Davidson nutters out there, who think you can go anywhere, anytime on an HD (well, you could I suppose). But I don't think it's being realistic.

A New Year

A quick update in mid-January. The winter doldrums are making everything look (and feel) damp and grey. We had a good break over in Egypt (see other Blog), but that's fast becoming a memory. Work's continuing as dull as dishwater, but have a CAD training course soon. With luck that might inject a modicom of interest. I don't feel the house in France is making any progress due to the time of year. Shame that, as having a wedge of dosh on the horizon would make things seem more bouyant. I wanna go looking at Transalps .... and feel that's holding back plans

But hey .... got some good bikin kit on Ebay. Top jacket, good strides and now looking at getting a GPS unit. HG shorty boots are on order too, and with plenty of cold wet stuff to come they'll be very welcome.

Birthday bash at the Kashmiri this Saturday, so looking forward to seeing everyone then .....

'Kay ... am gonna wrap it for the moment, as I don't have much to say.
