He wasn’t that bad. Made the trains run on time and all that.

Re: Monkey bike, Monkey ride
I don't know enough Italian to be very bad at it so I just wave my arms as I grunt, seems to work.

Re: Monkey bike, Monkey ride
Anyway today was a few smaller passes between Italian lakes including Alpe Di Niggra, which I've mentioned on FB just to upset the fact checkers. Stopped for a picnic lunch overlooking an Italian lake with a castle in, might have been Como. That was on the roadsigns at least
Found the worst B&b in Italy, after 30mins knocking on the door and ringing the bell, I gave up and booked elsewhere. Currently after a refund on booking,con for that one.
The place I've ended up in seems to have a free cat, who I've called Frank of course. I'd left the windows open when I went out to eat and came back to find it crying at me when I walked in. It's damn friendly, but has wandered out on the balcony n vanished, same way it had to get in so I'm sure it's fine
Pic dump time .

Re: Monkey bike, Monkey ride
Prepped the Triumph today as off to France on Monday to meet some mates up near La Rochelle next Thursday.
Going to take my time getting there, so will get some photos for a change. Or not.

Re: Monkey bike, Monkey ride
With all these pics I'm missing my foreign holidays but there's no way I'm going to chance being stuck in an airport for 30+ hours with the present cancellation chaos. I had enough of that sort of shit when I was travelling for work, especially after 9/11 when I had to go though 4 lots of security at Frankfurt. The most stupid thing was that there was a suspicious bag in the departure hall which they just taped around few feet away. Maybe German Police tape generates a force field if there's an explosion nearby?

Re: Monkey bike, Monkey ride
I drove down there for a holiday about ten years ago in my V70. Lovely area.

Re: Monkey bike, Monkey ride
I need to get out of this shithole. Apart from 5 days in Tenerife in December I've been nowhere since Covarse lockdown.
