Easter Sunday April 4th 2010

Noooooooooooo....
the madness begins, although I promised myself I wouldn't - I've started polishing/cleaning the engine cases. Looks much cleaner but now I'll have to do the whole stinkin' thing meaning that I am screwed (but in a nice way). There's something quite relaxing about polishing metal and seeing grime come away. I'll regret it in the long run as it gets more and more fiddly but what the hey. It's not like the pommie weather won't give me plenty of chances to spend quality time indoors....

Still trying to find a cheapo battery but no joy - may have to bite the bullet and pay full price.

Ride on the TL today - tres bon although bloody cold.

Bloody Tahs on top and Qld lost - bugger.

March 14th 2010 Update

no work again....missus off to Paris with the ladettes so home alone with the kids.

have bid on a used battery on ebay so hopefully I can pick that up next weekend and get back on track.

Mighty Reds win again in Super 14 so it would seem that black is white and white is black...universe completely flipped upside down from normal s.o.p. Have complete faith that a downward spiral to the cellar will begin soon.

Sunday 21st Feb 2010 - Zilch progress

Went to bike shop to see if battery could be saved and recharged but no joy.
Will now have to source a battery before attempting anything else on the bike.

On a happier note the mighty Reds won so several redneck friends will be happy and to further add substance to those thoughts of joy the Tah's (and Brumbies) lost.
