'Apes' we miss you sooo much

have had a bit of an emotional rollercoster weekend.

a good biker friend of ours died a year last friday, and his bike club done a memorial ride out for him on saturday morning, passing the place where he got killed riding his bike, we then went onto the grave so we could all pay our respects. and then we rode passed his house, and then back to the club house. where they held a one day bike show.

their club house is in the loughor boat club, which as some fantastic views.

manage to get a couple of pics..( none of me ..yes you can carry on looking,lol nothing scary on here now)
i have also got some other personal issues going one ( dont worry will not bore you with them..) so tday i am an emotional time bomb.

so done some work this moring.. and i have said SOD IT!!!!!!!! i am not working for the rest of the day.. i dont care if someone wants their smelly knickers recycled... they can either wash them.. or flipping wait...

i realised i hadnt had my hair cut in over a year.... and i have booked myself an appointment for this afternoon..... the whole works.. cut dyed.. and re-styled...so its going to be alot shorter...and flip knows what colour...but i better go and do a de-lousing session...lol... has youngest came home from school last week with visitors.....so better to be safe than sorry..
