My Dad has started his own business again. Today we added the best part of $200 billable.

Otherwise modded a knife to do what I want but goofed up the spring when I did. Have to think of a better way next time.

There is a dang Gun show in town this weekend. Why do I always learn about these things when I am low on cash?!!! Well, maybe if I take some trade bait over there I may just find something worth while! Don't quite know what...but something.

If they have any left shoes, pick me up one Tex !! If you're looking for something to turn a profit on, the GSG 5 22cal mags are next to impossible to find right now !!

As it happens there is a gunshow at my favorite venue this weekend.

But if you think you're broke... I don't have enough fuel to get there and back... if I buy fuel I can't get in the show!

So there!

Thought i'd take the bike out for a ride this morning in to town. Save some money on fuel. Get down the road,m about to pull out on the main road and nothing.. she's dead. Try and pull her over back against the kerb, wonder if i had left the choke on or something... and see a tiny split in the fuel line... right at the top of the line under the tank... empty tank.
The ex is away so no help there. Called his sister, she was at the hair dresser and everyone else was out. Call my parents and hope to hell that my dad is home and still has something he can put some petrol in.. and bring a tool kit so i can cut and rejoin the fuel line. Dad might not have a jerry can as he now uses a rotary grass cutter.. teh push powered kind. Thankfully he is home and does find a container. Say's he'll be there soon. By now i have found a way to get the bike off the road and on to the foot path. had 1 other biker pull over as see if i was ok. I've also pulled the broken part of the fuel line away and rejoined it to the bottom of the tank. Dad eventually gets there... he'd almost gotten to me and realized he'd forgotten the tools.... and i couldn't tell him i didn't need them anymore. Put some fuel in and we're good to go.
And go think i nearly didn't take my mobile/cell phone with me.

Bike is running but i'm noticing a slight miss so i'm reluctant to take it out again. Get home and find my internet has been suspended... they tell you when funds don't clear the first time but not on the subsequent times. So short of checking statements i am unaware of this until i got home and tried to get online.

My paperwork is in to pick up my Savage MkII Camo .22 but i don't have the money at the moment. Might go up and put some more money on it from my CC? So they don't go and sell it to someone else...

And a gun show tomorrow... with no money. I have fuel and entry. Will bill tolls to the CC... good just to go and look though.

Gun shows are always a great time! Fun to walk around and listen to all the grumpy old guys selling over priced crap and wondering why they don't have any customers.

Or better yet, walk around one with an empty gun case. They jump over themselves thinking you have something to sell.

Getting ready to go to the airport to go back home. Which of course means it's about the best looking day outside since I came down here to Alabama.

Waited till I was leaving @#$%^%$# it!
