Me and the missus, or as said properly, The Wife and I, went down to Weston-Super-Mud today. We came out of a shop in the high street and was confronted by a young male big issue seller who very politely said big issue sir/madam? To which I looked him in the eye then carried on walking. Then, all of a sudden he threw his whole pile of magazines down on the pavement, shouted "FUCK IT" and walked away. I think he must have had a shit day and we were the last straw.

Off to the Hague first thing tomorrow. Going on Eurotunnel and then staying in a Hostel (£18/night). Been to the Netherlands before, but not seen 'Holland', hope the weather holds out (partly why i chose it, Lux, Black Forest, Ardennes all have rubbish forecasts). Bike pretty much all loaded up for 7am start - plan to ride up the polders/dikes from Antwerp to The Hague. It'll be the first time I have toured with a topbox (nice to be able to secure the helmet at any stops). It's about 450miles each way, plus any touring around I do whilst there. Back on sunday. It's what the XJ6 was made for.....

http://www.motorcycl...administration/ in a way not surprised, the xj6s i have at the moment cost me £4k from there, less than most used ones were selling for - the zx6r i bought there in 09 was so cheap, when i got knocked off and it was wrote-off i made a £400 profit! (and kept the 2 paddock stands and other freebies they chucked in). Their business model was stack 'em high sell 'em cheap - i reckon they did a bit too much stackin', not enough selling. They were also clearly concerned about this business model and the high price of jap bikes that the floor was not that full when we last went (xmas week), and much of the stock was the italian stuff they had divers…
