Then it's off to pick the rugrats up from my parents and back home for more wood cutting and maybe a run0 -

Hopefully an uneventful Sunday - may do a packing list for next weekend if I get bored - otherwise I'm bound to forget something obvious. Later may involve listening to football."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
Morning folks, the traditional slow start is being had. Should probably do something constructive now. Off to the 'rents later for scoff. Other than that nothing planned, might go for a pint later.0

Stevo is right there. I built my CX up from a frame with road gearing. I'm sure a pure road bike would be no quicker with me on board and with off road tyres can handle quite a lot. You'd want at least 32mm plus clearance for knobbles and a bit of mud.0

Hey Pinno. John Hartson now lives half a mile away from me. I saw him on Friday.(You better be impressed with that, because no other fokker on here was )0

That would have been painful as they are a g@y couple0 -
Classic car meeting at the beach this morning, sunny 18c great day for it, saw a nice black Karmann Gaia and an old Opel Olympia convertible.

The baldy slap head who played for Celtic? That's fabalus boyo. The problem is, if he attracts other notables, you won't get a coffee in your village for less than a tenner and the streets will be riddled with Range Rovers.
I hope he doesn't end up running you over.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -
Well, he's not exactly a notable is he?
And judging from the state of him his residence in the village is likely to affect to affect coffee prices than to cause a drought of pies .......Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

'Notable' is a very subjective thing. I mean 'roun' here, there's the legend of Wee Lachie McGloughlin who took Big Bawdy Heed Malky oot o' the fitba club bar yon nicht and kicked his coupon in some 20 years ago. Then he drank 3 bottles of whisky and still daunered hame. He's a fookin' star.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0
