I grew up doing ‘game’ and a bit or pier float fishing. Loved it all. All the game stuff was consumed with chips. All the pier stuff was chucked back in ALIVE ‘part from the odd garfish which was sliced and frozen in foil ready for the next adventure 🙂
A return to annoying trout is on the cards once sprogs have grown.
Tiz the time of year for it. Despite flashy LED’s and reflective clothing I was nearly punted off 4 times last week. Gggrrrrr makes me maaad. Praise the lawd for Elixir brakes otherwise there would have been some serious chafing/hair stretch injuries. On the fifth day I fitted the Lupo and shared it’s 900 lumens. Amazingly, cars started to move over for me. Go figure.
My first bike cost £330 so don’t worry about cost. If you start getting serious about it then look at what others have done and buy something from ‘last years stock’. Barginorama.
In my opinion ‘good bikes’ start at about a grand.
bleddy ‘ansome innit, althought I reckon you probably could have got away with a smaller frame. Don’t worry about the weight, my FR is ferking tank but it’s still my number 1 bike for XC.
Apart from the odd day both sprogs are consuming and drinking plenty, infact the 3year old had two weetabix and a bowl of weetos this morning. Give it a few hours and that’s gonna get seriously messy. As long as they’re distracted you’d seriously never know anything was wrong.
jct 12 was sooooooo the way to go. Didn’t need any map/spacnav/luck. Had to use the force for the last mile but got here first time. From driving round i kinda like woolferhumptun. Itz glrate!
scruffy’s route will be route of choice especially as they’re closing jct11-8 exactly when I’m traveling. Feckers. It’s bad enough I have to detour on the M56. Could be a long journey this one.
I’ve got an Intuos 3 and it’s great but keeps losing it’s settings in Win7 64bit. A quick log off/on sorts it. Despite having the latest drivers I have to have the mapping set to ‘mouse’ which is a bit gay. In aswer to your question, I’d get the driver installed.
The missus has one, it’s alright. I’ve got the 5800 chrome which came before it and imo it’s waaay better. For geekness get the 5800, if you just want a phone get the X6.
FunkyDunc – when he does start grabbing stuff try warm chunky mccain chips. They’re not as messy as you’d think and it takes them a while, allowing that all important vital time to stick some food in your own gob.
