before my first cup...
even the ghost are scared of me...
G'Day...
1°/14°C @85% RH zis mornin', surfaces in the shade show traces of frost...
at least sunny with clear skies...
ze GF is weathering it off on her NT700, but announced having used her grip-heaters...
so I'm slurping my mugs in solitude...
Had a little two-up ride with the ST last evening, hauling her to our mech friend to pick up her Skoda fastback sedan...
All fixed, a corrugated pipe of the dreaded exhaust gas recirculation cracked (thus seeped) and needed replacement,
a repair panel welded into RHS front fender, primed and painted, winter tires on, MOT passed...
Back at her place we unloaded the summer wheels (astonishing that supposedly "light weight" aluminum alloy wheels,
weight at least about 5 times as much as (cheap) standard steel wheels like I have on my trusty Toyota...)
Once the sun is up I'll break out hose and Kaercher to give them a good cleansing before storage...
Also gonna (over)inflate them to 2.9Bar/42psi to avoid storage deformation...
Not much new on the job front...
The unemployment office has acknowledged my claim/status for monetary benefits... so at least some cash will come in...
Weird times though...
On one side the ideas expecting people to work till the age of 70 to lessen the strain on the state pension system...
On the other hand voices that claim that all those 'old ones' should be gone by the age of 45, as they're only blocking
housing and work places for the younger generations...
And no one is looking out the window to reckon the civilization, infrastructure, comfort and wealth we 'old ones' have build for them...
Its all taken for granted... damaged, vandalized, disfigured with graffiti... pfffff...
But: daylight saving time is ending this weekend...
