Events

I have been busy sorting and decluttering - I made the mistake of taking out a box of old photographs.......our big day, 25 years ago!


 
Last weekend we had an expeditions - to Sunderland. It always amazes me how the people from Sunderland do NOT understand us when we speak and vice-versa. I was asked which part of Wales I was from not so long ago!
 


Saturday our Evening Meal was Swordfish loin - first time I have cooked this but must say it was delicious.
 



A change from the Moto Guzzi on Sunday - back to the Honda
to the Ridewell event at local Preston Park.
 



Jon fancies one of these next - a BMW!
 
 



Back home Bing continues to grow!
 
 



and the hens enjoying a dustbath.



Bev (the black one) is now over a broody period and is now giving us the blue eggs we love.

 
Mabel has taken to laying her eggs in the wood shavings container inside the henhouse.
 


My neighbour has a new puppy - Reg (far right - photo position not his political leaning! lol)



As Emma works part time I am the official puppy minder and see the dogs have exercise and Reg eats his meals.



Awwwwwwwwww!

D is for Duck.


Way back in 2000 or possibly 2001 I spotted a duck backpack at the Scottish Bike Show. At the time the world and his wife seemed to have a Shaun the Sheep backpack and me being me wanted something different.
To this day I have not seen another when we are out and about on the motorbike.
The duck has been to France at least 3 times, done Assen in the Netherlands a couple of times, been to Ireland and the Isle of Man 6 times.
He has met many famous racers and indeed is well known in public circles.

















This week Jon and I did something quite DIFFERENT - we joined a motorbike club, the Moto Guzzi GB Club. Last night, Tuesday was the East Riding meet up in Wetwang, about an hour and a half away on the Moto Guzzi.














We had a great time, meeting new people and talking about the Moto Guzzi motorbikes, oh and Wetwang has a FABULOUS Fish and chip shop!
How did they spot us? Correct they were looking for a duck!




We are really enjoying the Moto Guzzi


Many more Destinations are on the way!
Watch this space!

This is D in my ABC Adventures on the Moto Guzzi.
