    Does it come with free LSD?

    Edit: The cube – unlikely to be a good paring with a bj :mrgreen:

    Really? Seriously? I mean, wouldn’t you just think that some zombie was trying to eat you in a really bad way?

    To resurrect all of the British railway lines that Beeching stole from us. Except now they will be bike paths.

    Carbon Road wheels trying to convince myself I need them either Reynolds Assault ones or Farsports Chinese ones, it’s a similar scenario to the scene in animal house with the devil and angel but it doesn’t involve sex.

    Where to begin…..

    OK – the most important 2:

    An early VW van with a Porsche engine and uprated running gear, fully converted for modern camping.

    And a Tesla Coil.

    We’re having a party tomorrow night. I want dwarves wandering about with big silver trays of coke on their heads.

    Say what you like about Freddie Mercury. The guy had style! 😀

    One of these, if I can persuade the missus that she doesn’t need all of her inheritance.
    I’ll let you know how I get on 🙂

    After 30 years riding bikes I’m hankering after a full sus and I’ve wanted a big old Mercedes van with a woodburner and a beautifully appointed wooden interior since about 1988

    So glad I’ve seen this thread, I thought I was the only one who found her strangely attractive.

    Though She looks like the kind of girl you would dump and come back to all your clothes cut up and your hamster in the microwave……

    yunki – I saw one when we were in France at Guedelon that may have done for you. It looked something like this but silver and in very good condition. It was huge, looked like an awesome van.

    An early VW van with a Porsche engine and uprated running gear, fully converted for modern camping.

    I had a mate many moons ago back in Exeter who did just this, pairing it up to some type of sequential/tiptronic gearbox thingy. (push up and pull back, whatever they are called). He was a lovely chap and reckoned it would polish off an M3 in a straight line. I do not know whether this was true, but he wasn’t the ‘full o’ crap’ type.

    He laboured over it for years and the moment he finished it, he got married and before you know it, was sold.

    It wasn’t baby blue, was it? With Safari roof bars?

    One of those used to live in Porthcothan, Cornwall. I found out about it because it was garaged there [second home*] and it took him about ten minutes of cranking to bring it to life. The noise caught my attention….

    *A very unpopular move, indeed.

    Also – Friday or Saturday is possible – let me know which is better!

    I wouldn’t be any happier with any of it; it’s just stuff.

    It was a very weird graffiti-job on the exterior, which I didn’t understand myself, so it’s not beyond the realms of imagination that whoever bought it, resprayed it!

    Cornwall would also be a logical assumption as next home..it was c2004 when sold.

    I’ll give you a buzz tomorrow to sort out weekend.

    Followed a Mercedes(508?) camper up the A1 last week, it was very nice and seemed to be keeping up well considering the age.

    XTR Di2, and a Fox iRD fork to go with it.

    More prosaically, a new telly – kids broke the remote for the existing one and the universal isn’t a substitute, and there is at least one less HDMI input than we actually need.
