I'm trying to squeeze my latest project into a 1.7 m x 1.3 m outhouse i find my myself drawn back to messing about with a lathe, a very small but capable lathe, if the shops ever reopen if things go full mad max it won't be a lathe i will be pillaging .

We had several kickers dotted around the village and a big old half pipe up the wreck (this was back when you could leave them out without them getting vandalised or nicked lol). When my boy is a little older I hope to follow in your footsteps. Absolutely BRILLIANT mate👍 ... and chillfactor 2 Quote

I'm dreading the first drop in for 20 odd years 😂 I did most my ramp skating in Australia.... amazing parks out there . Although there does seem to be some decent places over hear these days . But always rammed & scooters every where . The only way to really learn is plenty of uninterrupted time in the pipe. yonny 1 Quote

But you're right, we didn't have these scooter to contend with lol. I had a midlife crisis and started BMX racing a few years ago, I found out how much you don't bounce as you get older, smashed my shoulder into the second hump in a double and damaged my rotator cuff, that hurt quite a lot, 😁 chillfactor and yonny 2 Quote

yonny Posted March 25, 2020 Report Posted March 25, 2020 It was only last year I had a chest contusion after crashing my mtb at Bike Park Wales. Similar crash to what elmo described above actually except it threw me off the side of the mountain lol. It put me out for months - in fact I've only been out properly once since it happened. I couldn't even fish for several weeks as I couldn't push the barrow. Do not fancy going through that again lol. elmoputney 1 Quote
bluelabel Posted March 25, 2020 Report Posted March 25, 2020 Spent the afternoon making an "office" in the conservatory for my lass... She's on a rota from work and been asked to take turns at working from home... Also, she's concerned about not seeing her 82 year old mum, so I set up a skype account so she can talk to her on video chat... So she's happier than she was yesterday.. commonly, elmoputney and yonny 3 Quote

Lets hope its not you or a loved one that suffers. While you may be right do you really believe the world leaders would do what their doing for nothing ! UNBELIEVABLE what some are spouting ! They are doing it cause this isn't a flu virus. There's no way we would be shutting down. My friends wife works at guys hospital in London. The numbers of critical and dying are much worse than being published, they are trying not to panic people. She said they have over 300 in a critical condition just in that one hospital and that most patients can't even lie on there backs as they can't breathe when they do.

B B Posted March 25, 2020 Author Report Posted March 25, 2020 On a lighter note if I may.... I often wondered what was in the back of the shed so had a look today and found a bull worker which is a exercising device, I think they still manufacture them. I took it with me when I moved out of by mums many years ago. So the jumper and shirt came off and gave it a go after 5 mins i hear the bedroom window open and the other half yells spray some WD40 on it it will be easier 🙄 crusian, snowmanstevo, Pete Springate's Guns and 1 other 4 Quote

I wasn't overly concerned either but a girl I know who is as fit as a fiddle went down with it and she said she was a broken person. Even 4 steps to her ensuite was a massive task and leaving her absolutely breathless. If it does that to her then an asthmatic would be very severe indeed. Keep safe yourself mate and everyone else for that matter. Just wish more was being done. My mate works at Heathrow and still planes coming in from spain and Italy and also from other countries with no tests on the passenger's when they land or when they take off I suspect. B B 1 Quote
