    Gsmoon maintenance question.

    How many km? I re-greased a few weeks back and the grease was like new after 3000 odd km. I just added some more which made the motor a little quieter for a week or two.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I might add that brexit is seen as a very English thing, not a a UK thing. The Scots and the Irish voted against. (The DUP is seen as an extreme right lunatic fringe more English than Irish).
