Hoolets

That time of the year again, Bert & Laurennes party, as always much talking and drinking, acting the goat and plenty motorbikes. For some reason again BMW's seemed to be the bike of choice, our usual OiC of the BBQ Gus couldn't make it this year but a worthy replacement(s) in the form of Oz, Fi and Laurenne. There were some alcohol related injuries and I was one, fell flat on my face getting out the tent and the resultant bruise / cut made it painful getting the helmet on on Sunday, all in all I think 4 of us sustained injuries in the course of having fun. Big thanks to our hosts for a brilliant night as always and the rain Gods were pretty well behaved also!
Now some minor sorting of the Nortons before we head for Belgium next week.
Met this dude while we were waiting on Jake, old school hippy is how he described himself.
Nice bikes (OK the yellow one spoils it a bit ha ha)
