What was the steel MTB that was launched by the Indian Billionaire/Steel owner. It cost a small fortune.
Anyway, reminds me of the hardtail they released. Bet it’s a fraction of the cost too.

Splendid. My AM45’s have just died so great timing.

I’m a cop. ‘Nuff said…

Not sure Matt. The D2 is a 2ltr. Not sure if it’s a ford/ Volvo engine.

The Cube range looks really nice, no sign of any battery which adds to the looks.

Yeah, I may just stick it on eBay at a good price to see if it goes. (It’s a medium frame)

Japanese. Honda Civic (loads of room) Mazda 3, Toyota Auris. Dull but bombproof.

Lings car finance

Sarong. If it’s good enough for Beck’s…

When I left the Forces I got a job in a large, well known Finance Company. Going from working with blokes to working with 99% females was an eye opener.
One lovely lady who used to sit opposite would quite often say ” Guess what today is stockings or hold ups day…” and would then show me a quick flash of leg.
Now that brightened my day up..(over 20yrs ago this mind..)

Bags of Grated Cheese. Buy normal cheese and grate it you lazy gits….
Small faux 4×4 cars…why?? Unless it’s a Panda of course
The new Top Gear…BBC it’s over, just let it die
Girls with mahooosive eyebrows.
Wasps,…the Nigel Farage of the insect world. Annoying. Unwanted. Nasty..

Just thought I would post an update. I have sought legal advice which was great and very informative. Got a good local Solicitors.
As for her behaviour…turns out her new chap is still married. With 2 kids but has promised my ex he will leave his wife…I can’t help but feel a bit sorry for her. It will end up a mess, and it’s a dangerous game she/he is playing where people will get hurt.
As for me, I am just looking to the future to put this mess behind me.
It is nice to be able to have the moral high ground tho

The (soon to be ex) drives a BMW, I used to take it to our local Cumbrian dealer. The amount of cockwombles in the dealership was unbelievable. Bunch of miserable sods drooling over the latest M4 or whatever. Still on the up side they stiffed her for 2 new tyres at £400.00 last week which made me chuckle…
Not all BM owners are like that, but certain dealers do attract their fair share of gimps
I drive an old Volvo, and on my last visit to the dealer (safety recall) I spent a great 2 hours listening to an old boy going on about how he terrifies his wife in his purpose built off road 4×4 .

There are loads of routes here..http://flattyres-mtb.co.uk/route-guides/
If the weather is a bit rubbish the Clwydian Range is a good option (Moel Famau routes) loads to explore and not as exposed as some other areas.

I work in recruitment for a specialist Police Force. If anyone fancies a change of career message me.https://cnc.jobs/
*Mods, hope this is allowed,trying to help…

Kojacklollipop, where abouts are you based?

Clwydian Hills. Loads to explore. Go to the Flat tyres ride guides for some routes…

Aye, that was at least something we both agreed on. There is a savings pot in the daughter’s name to put her through Uni.

😂😂😂 Cheers big John, I feel like an old bike some days. Yeah , told her straight away about the Polo. Hopefully “Gary” won’t be too upset…I like the idea of giving her loads of positivity… albeit through gritted teeth.

Some great advice there, cheers guys. Appreciated.
Funnily enough she is away this week with him, I took a call yesterday from Chester Racecourse to say the Polo they were going to watch next weekend has been cancelled due to poor weather…so the question is when do I tell her????

She gets the majority of the house equity so I get to keep my pension. Works better for me in the long run.

No. If I stop paying I default which will mess up credit rating.

Once the house is sold it’ll be me who will be primary carer. The EX will be going to live in North Wales whilst daughter stays with me whilst she finishes her A levels

I am mindful that I need to try to keep the peace, esp as our daughter is in the house too. Plus I have never said anything hurtful to her and I would like to take that one thing away from all this, no matter how much she throws at me.
We have tried to keep the lawyers away, we have a mutual friend who is a retired family solicitor who has agreed to look at a financial agreement and prep it for a 3rd party to sign. So far its only cost me £550 for the divorce paperwork via the government website.
I am more mindful of trying to hold on to my pension which suits me better rather than the house equity.
Cheers for the replys guys, much appreciated.

Ah, cheers guys. And before anyone asks she isn’t called Louise.
The hardest part for me was during the Employment Tribunal. I got absolutely no support from her at all. She wasn’t interested in discussing it or offering any support. When I had the week in court at the tribunal she disappeared to North Wales for the week.
I am sure during this time I was grumpy and my mind elsewhere but when I asked her why she didn’t support me her answer was it was my problem and nothing to do with her.
Like you say once it’s over that is it…

House has been on the market for 3 months, very little interest. I think it’s overpriced but she won’t budge on the asking price. I would love to buy her out but I just can’t afford to.

I wanted a Mercedes. During the test drive everytime I stopped at a junction a stranger would get in the back and ask me to take them to the airport.

Cockermouth local here…the Gallery at Thornthwaite is really nice. Couple of pubs in Braithwaite and a nice Hotel in Portinscale. Loads of places in keswick. Cockermouth will be cheaper but it’s about 20 minutes in the car. I know a few XC type routes from Cockermouth if you want.

@ eruptron, would that be a Cockermouth Dealerby any chance?

The Canyon hardtails are brilliant race bikes. There are a few on eBay. Try Paul’s Cycles for last year’s models from Giant.

The thread title should contain spoilers….
