Might as well check the valve clearances while I've got it apart.
I am hoping they are all fine, because I can't get new shims next day delivery. I'll have to rebuild it to get to work then strip it all again to fit the new shims.

And the bottom of the article is the "Labour" right saying "we were right, it's the voters who got it wrong."
They've learned nothing.
Looking forward to them losing their deposits like the Tories did.

The problem wasn't really the negative campaign.

The problem is that it was a smear campaign based on lies.

And still Labour aren't offering any solutions to the highest drug deaths in Europe.

Let's have *that* conversation.

Happy with that. Good afternoon's work. Stripped it right down. Just got to whip the cams out and pop the cylinder head off. Nothing stripped, snapped or broken. That's a win.
I'll have another read through the manual, then take the head off in the morning.

Swapped to the euro bluesky server, relatively easy, made more tricky because of my self-inficted extra security doodads. Anyway, we'll see.
Have a look at www.eurosky.tech if you'd prefer to have your data in Europe these days

Soldiers know what we are signing up for. We know the risks for one, and we know what we are signing up to do. Nobody gets through Basic still unsure what exactly the purpose of the military is. I sure didn't. The purpose of the military is to advance the interests of the Empire. All of us knew it.

See it on here every single day, same lot did it with Corbyn, and then clutch to the most inane shit, I cannot stand them, not even for their politics but because they are killjoys who want everyone to be miserable so they can mock us at their dinner parties

won’t ever not be funny how aggro centrists try & over intellectualise why the greens are popular & cannot just admit it’s because people like their policies, like Polanski, hate Labour and are sick of how things are and prefer to pick holes in it because they are so SENSIBLE, out of touch more like

Sold the Bonnie, started on the VFR strip. Seat, fairings, tank, airbox, and velocity stacks off.
Got a bit weak so I'm waiting for the food to kick in.
Then radiator, downpipes, carbs and I'm at the engine.
Woo-hoo!

A reminder: Matt Goodwin lost heavily in spite of an almost total lack of tactical voting, not because of it.

The combined Green/Labour vote was 66%, versus 28.7% for Reform.

If Labour and the Greens split the vote 50/50 – a total coordination fail – he'd have finished third, not second.

This guy gets invited onto all sorts of media outlets as an insightful commentator and is involved in a professionally produced podcast.

I find it astonishing that part of the discussion around this war is whether a a leader who started it will get bored with it or not

They are privatising ours by stealth. Standard play: cut resources, run it down, then claim the only way to save it is privatisation.
It's worked so well for water, gas and electric. (Sarcasm).

Even if you believe in the Great Sky Fairy, that's some fucking hubris.
