    Brought a V6 absolute just before Christmas as a present for me – Sad i know .. Bloody amazing – im that sad ive taken it to family’s houses and shown them how much crap it brings up !

    269 direct from Dyson with all attachments seemed like good value and they offered it on interest free credit for 12 months as well through paypal .. nothing not to like !

    Have you also made it out on the bike stoner ? I see snows a bit sparse this year and lifts open to bikes ? Op have you done la Bourgeoise decent into Samoens ? Was kindly guided down and driven back this year by stoner and a was a great ride . Failing the bike what about a skydive ?

    I’m currently near Watford but prices have pushed me into Bedfordshire for what I want , shame as there’s some elevation round there . With Woburn chicksands and Aston nearby I won’t be short of riding but was interested in local fun. Thanks for the reply’s maybe scout ashridge with a shovel when I move in

    Brought on Friday and played a little 1 player due to ddos attacks . Multiplayer last night and well its rather special .. just plays in an amazing way that sucks you in .. not 100% on the maps yet the only one i liked was the city based one and the one from beta .. but given time they may grow on me .. not on much but makkag_78 on psn .. the worrying thing was it showed me in my stats i put 400 hours into BF4 :/

    I’m in 100%. 650 mile drive done in just over 14 hours yesterday wiped me out and I’m nursing a slightly sore head from wine . But the view this morning makes it worthwhile , see you @ 9ish. Oh and I’m literally opposite the ridge hotel

    Well my bikes checked, serviced, alpine ish tyres on and stored. just got to get through the week and the drive down now . Hoping the weather holds as my backs feeling good after test rides Physio and gym. No doubt I will be blowing out my arse come about 11am on the 15th though as majorly lacking bike fitness. Hopefully won’t hold the group up too much

    (means no more referendums)
    Not really up to Theresa, is it..

    Scottish parliament can call for indyref2 but cant call indyref2. Surely permission has to be given by Westminster for it to happen

    ooh hello I arrive on the 13th for 2 weeks with the now ex mrs and her 2 oldest and my young one so a day or so out actually having a days holiday sounds very appealing.

    May have the eldest in tow as he rides but could well be up for a meet up .. I however fractured a vertebra in my spine on saturday after a particularly silly accident on the bike so not sure how Gnarr im gonna be but early in the hol’s is the best way to find out .. I know/Knew some of the of piste stuff over Les Gets side less over in morzine as its been 4 years since i have been there but up for an explore !
