Wales is closed

Post by bobsnicholson »

But i didn't realise just how closed it was.
Got stopped by a cop motorbikist (in England), he followed me for a couple of miles. First words out of his gob, "you have not done anything wrong just wanted a chat". Talked about overtaking in/on hatchings in the middle of the road, he realised i knew what i was doing so we just talked bikes. Until a bike came towards us, i saw the cop looking at him, all of a sudden he said got to go that guy has no number plates, siren on and off he went with me scratching my head wondering what that was all about.

Unfortunately we are forced to follow rules set by our un-elected First Minister. 😤
There is a road on the Cheshire /Flintshire border where the white line in the centre of the road is the actual border between the two countries . Different set of rules for each side of the street .
Madness !

I walked across that viaduct last year.
I hate heights.

I was fine walking one way, but I was cr@pping it on the way back🙄🙄

(Ed, on the other hand, used to paint pylons, and still thinks nothing of going on the roof!)


Did you go to the ponderosa after?

Hopefully Wales will open again in three weeks . I NEED to get on my bike soon but the Law of Sod will make the weather change as soon as we're all freed . ;-)

I'm off to Cleveley's Beach near Blackpool today to have a look see at some iron they have dumped on the beach.
Posh people call them sculptures i think.
