    Actually, I don't mind the cold, although I would prefer to be hot.
    If you ignore MM and Homestar, most of us who turn up are wage slaves, so no excuse. Come on down. Arguments are so much more fun, in person, in front of a great big fire, IMO.

    Homestar has a dog he wants you to meet. An experience not to be missed. Ask me how I know

    Can't happen right now, but might be possible in 2019.
    Besides, I don't need to go south to be cold - it's 4 degrees here right now!

    I am a wage slave too, but thankfully my job makes me available to do other things at times....

    Oh, and unfortunately no Pugs to keep you warm this year as we won't be attending, although I am hatching a plan that may work which will allow me a day to myself on Saturday for most of the day, so if that works, I'll be up early Sat morning in the 101 and heading out on the trip with Alien for the day, but will be heading straight home from there.

    I do need to have a look at the 101 this weekend as it is getting increasingly more difficult to start from cold recently - which it's never really stuggled with, so hopefully have that sorted.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    Have you bypassed the oil pressure/fuel pump switch?

    What have I been doing ?

    Seems I have bought any new music , lp or cd in over a month. Totally out of character. Maybe tomoro something will interest me at the Dead of Winter Festival. Or when I get to Japan next week , I have been given a few places to check out.

    Should be something in the Shinjuku area, I expect.

    Yes, that was the first job I did when I got it.

    Problem seems to be solved now - went over the carbs - screws and nuts wear loose everywhere and all the linkages were getting stiff. Tightened up everything, gave everything a squirt of WD40, put a fresh squirt of oil in the pots and Chucky seems happy enough again at the moment.

    A Vietnamese farmer hasn't slept since 1973, when he had a fever, but doctors says he is in fine shape.
    I don't know how he does it. I turn into a grumpy puss if I don't get at least eight hours, starting by about 10pm. I can't imagine going more than 40 years without sleep.
    I thought this story must be fake, but when I searched there were numerous links from various times.

    Should change his name to Ngoc Tover. See if that helps.
    Cheers, Billy.

    Self-explanatory.
