    anyone ever eaten beaver?

    We all have:

    “If you’re eating vanilla, strawberry or raspberry ice-cream, you may just be eating beaver’s anal and urine secretions. Castoreum, which comes from the castor sacs of male and female beavers, is an FDA-approved food additive popular in ice-creams, and allowed to be called “natural flavouring”, meaning you probably don’t know that you are eating it.”

    Good grief that was boring! I may have dozed off for a while around the middle, did we ever get to the bottom of the menacing saab driver?

    No before we got to bottoms we got sidetracked into eating beaver.

    Well, if I’m going to travel any distance I’d want dinosaurs. I won’t go more than 100 miles unless there’s a T-Rex in it for me.

    That’s the problem with mountain bikers today – they won’t go anywhere unless there’s a guarantee of spotting extinct species. In my day, we’d wander all over the place armed with only a dodgy map torn from a Collins pocket diary and a magnetised needle on a string in order to find them.

    Giraffe needs a shorter neck and wider ears.

    Dead grass needs cutting.

    OK, moving on, this may be of help in the future 😉 … meetings where everyone is involved would doubtless help create a cohesive team and ensure unrealistic promises weren’t made:

    Let’s at least add a positive picture, the view from the little crag 10 mins ride past the top of the chairlift:

    Nice shot 🙂 There is a great deal of beauty and potential, so better to make use of that than consign it to a story of what could’ve been…

    Thanks, I appreciate the compliment 😆

    Also many thanks to the volunteers who’ve repaired damage~ let’s hope this has been a wake up call and more care is taken in the future…
