Let's run through the changes.
First, I'm back at my job in Winchester. The secondment was not as expected. Next, the Suzuki Burgman has gone, changed for a Suzuki GS500f, bigger and more suited to the long run.

... Breaking news - got an away day with Twist & Go magazine in March, to see who is going to ride a new Yamaha TMax for a year, and write for their mag. Ooo! Me please!
Tell you all about it later.
