    MurderBot just not really doing it for me Especially after two back to back knockouts with Bono and The King, This looks good - anything Ridley Scott involved with works for me. incredible pacing ...very intriguing. 🍿 Dan Brown feel to it ( I don’t like Brown ) without the religious claptrap...

    Aching Shoulders

    Lot of that comes from grip and larger grips help - the neoprene Grip Buddies are much better than the cheap grip puppies. Also cramp buster on the throttle helps as well as a throttle lock all in aid of keeping shoulders relaxed There are variations on this but so far this is convenient -...

    Slow burn but growing on me a muted wow..... (y) Never such a well done Agincourt. No idea how true to history in detail but felt correct. Chalamet pulls it off as Henry. This reviewer got it He's got a cute girlfriend too. ;)

    Fifty years or more since I saw the theatre release in the cinema. I recall riding in on my Yamaha 250 2 stroke I think. Damn 1964 is 60 ******* years ago. I suspect it didn't hit the little theatre in St Catharines on release day. I was taking a movie critic course and movies were $2 for...

    Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

    Got my what's allowed what's not for drugs today plus appointment for annual driving assessment by doc. Not expecting an issue. Lost one of my drugs for comfortable riding - Celebrex off the plate for now until heart sorted :(. Pseudoephredine given go ahead and that's a real plus. Fighting...

    Really enjoying Long Way Home. We wanted to travel the area Charlie and Ewen are but ran into a roadblock,...at the time there was this 500 mile gap that was exploited for big $$$ as you could only hire limited transport. We could not take any rental vehicle across the gap. Trip did not pan out...

    Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

    Decided against a ride today as head cold seems not to want to leave and we will be going to Bowls tonight which at least gets me out of the house. I'm not approved to take my decongestant yet which may change things tomorrow. Sure would have helped today.

    Aching Shoulders

    OP - Celebrex is your friend. Getting old sucks - might as well use the pharmacy to help. I also have long term rotator cuff injury that can hurt after while if I don't have Celebrex in me. Lately my low grade sciatic has been quiet. Very little riding is likely. Your frequent changes of...
