I know a few bikers that’d do that as well.
Feisty feckers.
I know a biker who .....
:1 Is as blind as a bat
:2 Has truly awful breath
:3 has to be 3 inches off you nose when talking to you

I don't much like my personal space being invaded so asked him nicely to stand back a bit dozens of time over the course of a few months, even making it plain by gently pushing him back a couple of times

One night when I may have had one jar too many her got in my face once more & I moved away from him to chat to someone less fecking annoying, 2 minutes later he's in my face again ........ you can see it coming cant you ..............yep nutted him good & proper

The funny thing is he went to complain to the pub gaffer Chris who said "well you were told" , dickhead then got right in his face & guess what Chris nutted him REALLY hard :meparto:

Had a contractor turn up at the right time and the right place on the right day.

Third time lucky.

Got my lawn scarifier going after many hours head scratching:thumbup:

Target fixation again.....it started when the plastic primer bowl split and I replaced that last year, cleaned the air filter and spark plug at the same time. Flipping thing wouldn’t start, not even a splutter, dismantled the carb and gave everything a good clean but no go. As you would expect there are a number of safety devices that must be engaged before the machine would start and I then convinced myself as it must be one of those not engaging properly as I suspected there wasn’t a spark.

So having dismantled all the various safety switches and not found anything wrong I decided to take the spark plug out and spin it over......


hmmm, there doesn’t seem to be a gap on the spark plug.....thirty seconds later having gapped it and stuck it back in....brrrrrm, brrrrrrm,,brrrrrrrm.

must have knocked it when I was servicing the machine last year.

:facepalm:
