Doesn't matter what the question is, coffee is the answer.
Coffee will fix it. 😊🤞🦋

Most, if not all, ex-Service people can surely relate to this.

I had a 1984(?) GT550 model, in deep red. Best shaftie I ever had.
I must admit I'm interested in this 1987 Kawasaki GT.

Be a great project bike.

@ournewhomecoach.bsky.social I really do feel for you. I'd seen it, and thought it didn't apply to me as I was born in the UK. Wrong! My UK passport has expired, and I don't have a GBP550 sticker in my Australian passport, so I still need the ETA - and that's just to let me on the plane.
PSA: apparently Australian citizens need a visa to enter the UK. FROM TODAY. #auspol.

@philipkallan.bsky.social, I've just checked out your website, and being a retired (Australian) submariner, and someone who trained at Bletchley Park, I couldn't go past Sea of Wolves. I've bought it, and it will be the next book I read.
Thanks for connecting.

As it's still early in the year, I'm going to claim my personal motto as my New Year's Resolution:

"All assistance, short of actual help"

Aaah, the sticky carpets ...
Ah, the ‘meeters and greeters’ also known as the ‘chucker outers’ of the Royal Navy’s Dancing school in Portsmouth in the the 1970’ s and 1980’s…

If someone mispronounces a word, don't criticise them; they probably found the word in a book. If you want to improve your vocabulary - read, then read some more.

I've taken the step ... I have moved here from the gloom and doom of the old place. I will stay there as well for a while, so that I can maintain some continuity, but can't see it being too long.

Looking forward to following those who I have been following in the twittersphere.
