Save some for us!  I've got a huge circular tray which could be cunningly disguised as a plate.  ;D

What you really need is the following day off!  Then you could stay the night and mosey on home in daylight next day!

Not afraid of the dark BG, now that I have my new ugly betty glasses.  Afraid of the rain tho.

My Dad's birthday that day so will probably be in Christchurch for birthday tea.

It's not a matter of being afraid of the dark, just more fun riding in daylight to my way of thinking, enjoying the scenery!

I'm hoping to get down there tomorrow but it all depends on getting my new master cylinder fitted and brakes bled tomorrow - and I may be a bit shattered after a day at the Sealife Centre today with my grand-daughter!

Very quiet to night on the quay, hence the Mint were offering two meals for the price of one. Not much to photo apart from a Panther with a difference.

Looking after my sisters children on Tuesday, while she waits for the gas man.  They've given her a rough time as to when they'll turn up.  12pm - 6pm. 

I've managed to talk them into a bit of sightseeing in Poole, first a brown ferry island trip to see the Jurassic coast!  they love dinosaurs! then maybe onto an aquarium after lunch.  Then we'll have fish and chips by the quay as the bikes turn up in the evening.  ;D  Only thing is, I've just checked the weather report for the next 5 days and Tuesday is the worst day next week for rain.  >:(

Jacko informed me this evening that he too has tomorrow off, so he'll be popping down to poole with me for the day.  Hope to bump into some of you guys/gals if you're going.

Well it lashed down with rain all day, the sea looked a bit choppy.   There were no boat trips available, we ended up having lunch in the fishermans cafe as soon as we arrived, then the kids wanted to have a look around two museums and after that we wondered down towards the far end of the promenade by the thistle hotel and found odd bits of fish trapped in the lobster pots, my nephew was amused for half hour chucking them into the sea, then we stood and watched the gulls diving in and out of the water feeding on them.  It was a wasted day for Jacko and I, but at least the kids were fast asleep in the car driving home.

Great night at Poole Quay this evening, shame Janie and Jacko could not have chose a day like today to visit, Pete And Chrissie turned up on their trike, bikes came in all sizes from a paratroopers Well bike to a Boss hoss, trikes were the same going from a Nippy to a Porsche and yes it was registered as a Porsche 911, good food as allways in the Mint.

Sorry we didn't make it. Looks like there was a big turnout.

Is nothing safe from being triked  ;D

Good to see you again at Romsey over the weekend Rick.
Think I first saw that Porsche trike on Brighton sea front. Been around for a while now.
