Another Way Around Blog

I decided the other day i had to clean billy beemer as it was looking really sorry for itself, manky and covered with shit and pine needles from last weekend.. Pressure hosed then polished to an inch of its life so its now back to its former glory and looking like new again.. I think im gonna park it up, cover it and put the optimiser on the battery and leave it there to the spring as the weather is gonna go down hill rapid style..

As the auld cb400 hunder is now complete and lookin mint im gonna start the latest jimmy daveedoff project in the form of my 1956 sunbeam s7,, its a one owner bike from new,, originally registered in glasgow and still retains its very short reg number which is pretty rare these days as the vultures that buy these old bikes and cars usually buy them to strip them of their valuble plates to sell on,, well nae luck cause this wans mine and its going nowhere.. Will get some pictures up so you can all see it before it gets pulled apart for the rebuild..
Good thing is the bike started after cleaning up the points and fed it some fresh petrol,, so at least this wan is running unlike the cb400,, so anyway thats my winter project so keep yer eyes peeled for various updates..

Anyways im away to get some dinner afore i head back to work

awerite guy’s jist tae say Magnum were superb on monday night,they defo uped the mood for me,big max & riggy after being pulled over by the feckin cops for a wrong turn onto byres road. A £30 on the spot fine but no points that wiz a bonus coz I think big max would have said you can walk home as I told him to take the turn,oops sorry for that one Maxillius, now you know why I dont take the lead when were oot on the bikes(apart fae the fact yeez cannae keep up with me anyway tahataha) Anyhow had my 3 monthly check up on Tuesday and was told that ive more or less beat my lymphoma great news!but ive to be carefull with the booze intake as there are toxins still in my system and that my body will not recover the way it used to(bummer)but to fair the doc is spot on as ive kinda been doing a wee tie strap for aboot 2 day’s with the dt’s. The down side is that Innes & Gunn’s taking’s are about to drop drastically just hope there are no job losses through it. Anyhow been oot brazing up the kettle’s pipes again but still not happy with the end result jist yet but i will be. once they are done im gonna give it a break for a while and start training again I need tae get my fittness back as all the nights oot are catchin up, whit a bummer as big max was wantin to take Jimmy terrettes to hamilton palace so he could test oot the aftershaves as xmas is approachin, i wiz looking forward tae that one tae as Jimmy has never been tae the palace. Anyhow catch up with you all later George Budgie Best

As ya probably know a few of us were through in glesga last night at the garage to see Magnum on their latest tour and they were outstanding as per usual..

Had some dinner at little italy, well pizza,, and these guys do the best pizza ever and if ye ever get the chance try a bit O their carot cake its fandabadozeee..

Any way im away tae get organised as we are off to see Magnum tonight in glesga so i will be seeing ya

Thanks very much for the card and your kind thoughts, guys. The family also thank you for your generous donation which I will put in to the collection tomorrow in aid of Cancer Research UK. As you will be able to imagine, it has been a very difficult few weeks and no doubt tomorrow will be no easier. There are a lot of memories which will, I’m sure, ease things over time. Hope to catch up with you soon.
Best regards,
Bobby

Whit fanny decides that ye better get oot there the night and get salt oor the roads as its +6 the night.. The thing is they put two fuds in the gritter,, wan to drive it and the other must be just to keep the ither wan company.. and smoke fags and get double time for the effort.. Yep and the first sign O snaw this wee stupit nation will still come to a standstill,, sorry folks all major roads are closed today,, schools all shut and please,, only venture oot if its an emergency cause if ye look out yer windy theres a whacking 3 cm of snaw arrived in the night and wur gritters cannae cope Theres just no need councils so get a fuing grip and away and stick yer salt on yer feckin chips tae november..

Hey folks hope yer all ok over there in sunny shcotlund as were still here in sunny toronto or not so sunny the last twa days but who cares theres loads a good beer to be drunk

Yesterday we were walking down young street on a makeshift sidewalk between two metal barriers when a truck decided to hit the barriers which smashed into us not so good. The traffic cops are now on the case, luckily a passer by got the reg plate so hes gettin it

So last night was spent in the ER room and between the two of us we had 9 feckin x rays, hand,foot and ankle, thank feck for travel insurance,, so i now know what an ER room looks like in canada and as they say on this side of the pond were gonna sue the son of a bitch

So for now folks a limping jenn and a wan handed (for the moment) Daveeedofff
