For a great cause. Well done Cussie & daughter 👍🏼
Just for humours sake can we throw them through the windows of firework setter offers.

Can't remember if I have posted on this thread. But my current hobbies are riding Custom Motorcycles, Hunting, Fishing, Target Shooting, BBQ, and Swimming in my Pool. And of course watching a s**t ton of football from a variety of leagues in Europe and the Americas. It's a good thing I'm retired and have time for all that. 8-)

I’m a Harley guy Tyzy! All of my bikes have HD motors. Although my touring bike has a Baker 7 speed transmission. But all have custom paint and much more. Here is a pic of my Custom Softail.

She's a beauty,lovely colour.Harleys are not my thing but I admire them for what they are, it looks like your in the right place to ride one the roads over here are shocking.
I have GS1300 for touring with my wife and just treated myself to a new XR for a bit of extra excitement when I'm solo.

Since late September, I started playing Indoor league bowls at Hornsea on Monday & Wednesday mornings with my Cranswick outdoor colleagues.

I'm in hot form, so much so that I have been recommended to those in charge I should be selected for Hornsea's B team for matches against teams from Leeds, Selby, York, Doncaster, Redcar etc, on a home & away format at weekends.

I still play at Middleton-on-the Wolds club once a week however, Hornsea is a step-up in grade, it's a bit like the Premier League, every game is tough & competitive.

Not totally losing it as I age. :lol:
