It's become a bit of a habit but keeps me sane, I think! Another week under our belts and all fit and healthy. 961s running a dream so it's lock up, light the stove, crack a beer and settle down to steak, cooked on the fire, and chips cooked to perfection surrounded by my mechanical pride and joys. Life is truly good!
 
Boredom set in today so, thinking a rear reflector was probably required I knocked up a truncated triangle of an aluminium bracket, that now holds the reflector tight to the reg. plate. Not hanging like a tups testicles but close in like the undercarriage of a N. Sea swimmer. Sorted, so light the stove and crack a beer time .
 
In Victoria, we have another outbreak, so we are back into another lockdown for a week. Our government says this is no time for 'political sniping'. They are trivialising what are quiet expressions of extreme outrage due to their ineptitude in the vaccine roll-out and federal quarantine responsibilities. - Not really the best way to solve problems ?
 
Hotels are not the right place for any quarantines, need purposed built quarantine centres and run by health departments with proper experts keeping track of things and test the ones in quarantine regularly.
 
The populations will just have to adapt so life is back to some form of normality, I would have liked another trip to India but can not see that happening for some time though.

I was talking to my neighbour yesterday telling him I was tempted to board my house up (make internal shutters for all windows) load my Africa Twin and head to the other side of the country and knock on some doors for work projects and hang out there until the end of the year.

Today I get an email from a company I used to work for (O&G) based on the other side of the country who were looking for expressions of interest for a FIFO project in that state.
Maybe it is an omen and could ride around exploring on the work time off.
