"going to bring pedals and shoes"
is this some sort of new niche I've yet to hear about?
what are you doing down there? forces?
yup, he's ratboy
what are you doing down there? forces?
He is a professional Penguin breeder for their pelts.
Ratters, dont go stealing anything or poke any local girls 😉
Fingers crossed our movers dont treat your bike with their usual tlc. You may end up with a unicycle.
Is it warm? whats the weather like?!
Good for kite flying I imagine.

Its winter at the minute...
noteeth: LOL!

Dam!
Cheers for the letter dude!
my faith in our armed forces is fully restored.
If they can teach ratboy to speak proper then they can achieve world peace
well sorry its been so long, the wind has been blowing up to 50mph for the last few days!!
the island so far is great, not been out on any trips yet but i will be going out soon!! will keep people posted.
if any one is coming out and wants to meet up then email me (in profile)
If it's still open, pop into the sailors' mission in Stanley. Fantastic cakes!
I spent a winter down there in 2000. Took my climbing gear and did some winter routes with an MRT colleague. It was much better than festering in the maze on your day off.
Also did a battlefield tour. Amazing to see soldiers' personal effects still lying around. Humbling to see just how close the spotters, for the Naval bombardments, got to the Argie positions. One RM observer crawled through an Argie minefield to lay up 25 yards from their forward positions. 😯
well its FIXMAS (falklands isle xmas) and its snowing (sort of)
its freezing here and winds have been up to 75 kts!!!
been out seen loads of sea lions, penguins and dolphins.
no sign of my bike yet though!!
shaun
3 weeks sunday mate an i will be down!!
not bringing my bike as ive been told the pt staff have some half decent hardtails i can use??
Is it true about the penguins falling over backwards watching aircraft fly over?
My sister has gone out there aboard HMS Clyde
Where abouts are you? Near Port Stanley? The mrs and I are meant to be going out there soon to see her Dad and I fancy taking my bike so will be interesting to find out what the riding is like
well the weather is getting better!!
no the penguins dont fall over!!
Mattew_h i have proberly met your sister as i work in the port!!
Taff. I work at MPA about 30miles from stanley. it looks like a awsome place to ride but you dont know where mines are! so itend to stay on MPA.
if i can offer any more help then please email me.
Shaun
ratboy, don't bum the locals. the penguins are fair game though.
Ah Ant, the locals arnt even worth a look in they are "special"
