    My lads at uni just down the road from nant, so when i go see him i take the bikes, hippety hop section is excellent and we always ride that a few times before carrying on around the rest ….
    i think its an excellent trail … well worth the drive to wales

    @ nonk … its not about that, its not like we want any money from him , just he needs to wake up a little an try and get some some money sorted for uni … thats it ! ….. plain and simple …. otherwise how the hell will he survive ? …

    edit : … maybe im wrong to want my son to have a bit of work ethic and understand that money doesn’t come from mommy and daddy all the time !! .. nothing in this life is free …. unless ur a foreigner ! :)

    Never even had a paper round !
    and @ al , we have told him to be more specific ….. hes more into the programming side and so we are pushing him towards that

    Thanks for the replays …. hes doing games tech at college and going onto computer game technology at uni …. everything from design through to coding and development … hes done us proud at college and on for distinction in all his modules and so easily got enough points for uni and we are very proud of him ….. its just the financial side we are concerned about and the fact he hasnt worked before …
    just thought it would be easier for him having some money and some real life experiences rather than all in the virtual world !!
    I know and do agree he could be alot worse ..

    @ fizz …. funny you should say that as my eldest lad is about to finish uni this year and guess what subject hes done ?? ….. yep .. media !! ….. we did tell him before he started it !

    stumpy_m4

    Yep …. only playing them,not actually coding them, which is wants he wants to do !! …
    and as for applying etc , we wouldn’t mind so much if he was sending out cv`s and looking actively …. but he cant even be arsed to do that ….. he sent 1 out in 2 yrs and that was last week to where his sister works !

    @ cinnamon, not into hardcore stuff, normally ride cannock or nant-y-arain etc, i like history and love my scenery so a mix would be good …. just a nice steady few miles will do …. anything considered :D ..

    @ cinnamon girl , a gpx would be great thanks, email in profile :D
    Ive never ridden anywhere down that way so kinda open to offers as it were :) … just quite fancy a ride down there :) …… any decent campsites as well would be useful :)

    The Avebury area could be a goer as well :) …

    cheers :D
