Have pleasure in reporting I have successfully completed the course below.
A challenging but essential course for Landlords or people operating in the residential property sector.
With so much change over the last few years and huge fines for failure to comply it was the only way to onboard this knowledge safely.
The NRLA training team have been amazing, thanks to
Adrian Woolger up there in Manchester who has been very supportive and Sam Eccles.
Thankyou .

Good evening last night for the Black Widows MCC at The C**k Inn

We were delighted to receive Dr Sylvie Edwards, the Grand Prior of the Order of St George, who we have a Memorandum of Understanding with and have members within its ranks, and share its core values and objectives.

This is a Chivalry Order, celebrating 700 years of existence this year.

The work it does throughout the world is astounding.

The commitment and different walks of life of the people that make up its ranks is breathtaking.

We also had the opportunity of meeting Lt Col (Ret,d)Johnny Longbottom MBE,QVRM,VR who shared our event and sat in on the structured part of our meeting, as well as sharing memories and giving a great insight to the work that the Order of St George do and also the work that Johnny does within Parliament.

We were very pleased to spend good quality time with some great people.

We feel very committed and excited to the future, working alongside each other.

Very pleased to report the progress of Anthony Johnson - AJRacing ,Chloe Gleeson #25 and Luke Foreman.

It's been a real pleasure watching them on their journey and supporting amazing riders, and we hope to continue that in the future.

Food was amazing, company was even better.

A good meeting, lots of good news and a great summer it appears has been had by all.

We look forward to the future and our focusing on our efforts for the Christmas toy run on Sunday the 13th of December.

1,200 Miles, 24 Hours, One Unforgettable Ride! 🏍️💨
Black Widow MCC Secretary Karl Hopper-Young just completed an epic whirlwind trip down to Montpellier and back!
The Journey Down:
* Started bright and early with the 8:24 AM Channel Tunnel train from Dover to Calais.
* From Calais, it was non-stop riding all the way down to Palavas-les-Flots, bypassing Paris on the way out for a super smooth, clean run.
* Arrived in Palavas at 8:30 PM, just in time for a quick shower and a light dinner after a long day in the saddle.
A Morning in France:
* Started Monday at 7:00 AM with a quick dip in the sea—just a 1-minute walk from the house! 🏊‍♂️
* Followed it up with a proper courtyard breakfast: croissant aux amandes, a ham & cheese salad with egg sandwich, and a pain au raisin and washed down with café au lait
* Met up with the builders at 2:00 PM to take care of business.
The Return Leg:
* Departed Palavas-les-Flots at 2:15 PM, taking a spectacular scenic route back through the mountainous countryside over the Pyrenees, crossing the iconic Millau Viaduct, and hitting Paris around 8:00 PM.
* Caught the 3:24 AM Channel Tunnel train early Tuesday morning (Sept 1st) to complete the return trip.
Final Stats & Notes:
* Total Distance: 1,200 miles covered in under 24 hours of riding time.
* Bike Status: The CVO Street Glide ST handled all weather conditions like a champion and is now officially ready for its first service!
* Item to Fix: The toll tag decided not to play nice during the trip—needs some investigation before the next run.
A truly amazing experience riding in all conditions. On to the next adventure! 🏁

Changing attitudes and opinions..one event and ride at a time..
